ALASKA RULING
BY HIGH COURT
GOVERNMENT MAY NOW PROSE.
CUTE COAL LAND FRAUD
CASES.
iuRT0N GIVES OPINION
RULING OF UNITED STATES CIR
cu'r COURT IS re-
vERsED.
western Newspaper Union New. Service.

Washington.-The Supreme Court OF
the United States has opened the way
for the federal government to prose-
cute coal land frauds in Alaska by
holding that the general coal land laws
of the United States, which forbid
persons or associations making more
than one entry. applied to the unsur-
veyed coal regions of Alaska.
The immediate result of this hold
ing was the reversal of the action OF
the United States Circuit Court for
western Washington in quashing as in
valid the indictments against Charles
E. Munday and Archie w. Shiels on
charges of conspiring to defraud the
government out OF Alaska coal lands
valued at $10.0O0.000. The way is now
opened for their trial on this charge.
Washington.-Justice Lurton rem
dered the unanimous opinion of the
court. He considered the argument of
the defendants that the act of Con-
Rress In 1904 superseded the general
laws. so far as the unsurveyed lands
There occurs to us no reason for
assuming that Congress intended to
abandon the policy OF keeping open
the right of every citizen to enter one
tract and no more of the unsurveyed
coal lands OF Alaska. that would not
lead also to the abandonment OF the
policy as respects coal lands which
had been surveyed. An intention to de-
part from a uniform policy so long en-
forced In regard to coal lands should
not be Imputed to Congress unless the
act OF 1904 admits of no other con-
struction."
Justice Lurton then proceeded to
show that the act of 1904 did admit
OF another construction. namely, to
extend the general coal land entry
laws, which were then applicable only
TO surveyed lands, to unsurveyed
lands.
THE legislation, read in the light Of
the situation and OF the uniform policy
which had so long prevailed" JUS
tIce LIrton concluded. "of prohibiting
more than one entry to one person.
makes It plain that Congress did not
intend to except the surveyed coal
lands OF Alaska from the operation Of
the restrictions which attached to the
sale OF the surveyed coal lands in Alas
ka and elsewhere"
The decision not only means that
Mundny and Shiels must proceed with
their trial for alleged conspiracy to de-
fraud the government out of Alaska
coal lands valued at $10.000.000. but
that similar indictments at Spokane,
Tacoma. Detroit and Chicago will be
pressed.
The substance Of the decision was
that 1t il Just as much fraud In Alas
ka as In the United States proper to
hire dummy entrymen to take up COM
merclal lands.
Munday and Shiels were indicted.
along with others. on charges of con-
spiracy to defraud the government by
seeking to procure for the Alaska De-
velopment Company and the Pacific
Coal & Oil Company some 6.oo0 ncres
of Alaska coal land.
