SEVEN ALASKA ENTRYMEN ARE
ACCUSED OF OPERATING
BY "DuMMlEs."
FEDERAL INVESTIGATION
Indictments Are Returned at Tacoma
Against Two Groups - Another
Grand Jury Sitting at Spokane
May Act Soon.

washington, IL. u. - A1Ler mOuIHS
of secret effort and patient wait
ing, the officials of the general land
office are able to announce the indict-
ment of number of claimants to yalu-
able coal lands in Alaska. The entries
involved number 1874 and cover almost
$4,000 acres of land, all of which lie
in the Boring Strait district in which
the Cunningham claims are located.
They are what are known as the
English or Strategy and the Christopher
Simmonds groups, the former contain
ing 80 and the later "a claims of 160
acres each. The deposits covered by
these claims are believed to be as rich
as those of the Cunningham mines
which cut a conspicuous figure in the
BaliingerPinchot controversy.
The indictments were handed down
in the United States district court sit
ting at Tacoma, Wash, and the infor-
nation that they had been returned
was conveyed in two kilograms re-
ceived by Commissioner Dennet from
Special Agent Christensen, in charge
of Alaskan matters, to whose efforts
the findings are especially due.
The Men Indicted.
The first message contained the an
houncement of the action against the
English group and stated that indict
ments mad been returned against G.
F. Munday, A. H. Strategy, Archie W..
Shields and f. e. Siegley. A few min
utes later came the second telegram
+,Jl -
Christopher, George Simmonds and
Mortimer G. Sweeney of the second
group. He added that warrants would
be issued as soon as the indicted men
could be unprecedented.
The first group of defendants takes
its name from the fact that a number
of persons in western Canada are sup
posed to be interested in the claims
taken up by this party. Strategy, one
of the men indicted, is a resident of
| Vancouver and is charged with being
instrumental in making some of the
/ locations. Munday is an attorney in
Seattle.
The charge against the indicted men
is that the entries were made in the
entrymen were residents of the state
of Washington and their claims are
said to have been located with al
agreement that they should be decided
TO third parties as soon as parties will
ing to be interested could be found by
the locator. There is said to have
been a further understanding that thf
locator should receive large percent
/ age of the sale price.
The charge differs; differs ff:cc:a the charge
made in the Cunningham claims, il
which there was no allegation that the
entrymen took the claims for persons
other than themselves, but rather tina
they had a previous agreement to worl
or dispose of their claims as a unit. L
is said that few of the claimants il
the new cases ever saw the land OF
which their names were used for 10
cations.
1t is known that another fedora
grand jury, sitting at Spokane in con
nection with the district court of the
eastern district of Washington, is con
sidering still other charges Of fraudu
lent coal entries in Alaska, and tina
results are expected from these inves
legations similar to those obtained a
Tacoma.
