ten men INDICTED
BY GRAND JURY
Extensive Land Fraud COnspir.
acy Is Alleged.

Washington, March 1S.-"Probably
the most extensive land fraud in the
history of the interior department, :"
was the way Commissioner of the
Land Office Fred bennett described
the cases against A. c. Frost of Chi
cago and nine other men who were
indicted by the federal grand jury.
The men are charged with not only
having planned to steal coal lands
worth more than $10,000,000, but to
build a railroad connecting the coal
fields with Alaskan markets and ship
ping ports and to float a multi-million
dollar stock company.
Frost, bennett said, was the orig
inator of the scheme. Without money
himself, he is charged with having
persuaded numerous wealthy men to
supply him with millions of capital.
The railroad Frost planned was actu-
ally started, it was stated, but aban-
doned when the land Office held up
the entries.
Both United States and Canadian
capitalists are said to have been in
volved in the attempted frauds.

Investigation Of Proposed Com.

Washington, March 1S.-Shall there
be a bread corner? Shall frenzied
finance, having cornered sugar. meat,
clothing, coal, oil and other necessi-
ties, be allowed to gather its tribute
also from the poor mans staff of life?
These questions have aroused Presi
dent Taft's trust busters to action.
There is to be an investigation of the
baking trust, the $3O,OoO.000 corpora
ton which is being organized by John
w. Gates and others
One of the most sensational aspects
of the proposition is the possibility
that the bread trust, If allowed to go
unchecked, may corner the wheat mar
ket of the world and put bread In the
class of Injuries.
The governments investigation OF
the proposed trust already is under
way, although plans for launching the
big combine have not been perfected.
1t appears that the plans of financiers
who are backing the corporation,
which is to be known as the National
Baking company, have been known to
Attorney General Wickersham for
some time, although they did not be-
come public until couple of days

FIRE DESTROYS STEAMER
Crew of Forty Taken OF Vessel in
Safety.

London, March 1S-The Furness
line freight steamer North Point was
destroyed by fire in the Thames two
hours after she left her wharf. The
crew of forty were taken off In safety
after the vessel had been beached.
She carried no passengers.
The steamer was off Purflet, about
fifteen miles from London, when the
fire broke out in the general cargo.
which included quantity of creosote.
The flames spread rapidly and en-
veloped the craft, the heat being so
intense that the plates were red hot
to the waters edge. There was barely
time in which to run the vessel ashore
and permit the sailors to escape.
