Two Government Agents
Appear Against Ezra
Collins.

Trial OF Ezra Collins on three counts
OF alleged acceptance of bets on horse
racing from Special Agent Clyde Am
brose. of the Department of Justice was
held In the United States branch of
Police Court today. The Government
had but two witnesses, Ambrose, and
Special Agent X. w. DeBell, also of the
Department of Justice
Collins himself and S. w Reed, a
bartender in the Manhattan Hotel, gave
all the testimony for the defense.
Special Agent Ambrose said that on
June 3 and again on June 10 of last
year he placed bets with Collins. He
said that on the 10th he collected his
winning of the 9th. and placed another
bet on which Collins and he made settle
ment ON June Il. The bets were made
either in the Indian saloon, at the cor
ner OF Ninth and K streets northwest,
or on the sidewalk in front OF 1t. Both
Ambrose and DeBell told the jury that
on June p they met Collins by appoint
ment In Scanlon's billiard parlor on
Ninth street. Ambrose placed a bet Of
~ with Collins on that occasion, ac-
cordlng to the testimony, borrowing 81
OF DeBel, who accompanied him, and
saw the bet made and accepted.
Ambrose identified Collins positively.
The special agent said he was intro
duced to Collins by Reed, who recon-
mended the defendant as square
bookmaker who always settled
DE Bell was unable TO pick out Col

Swamp Land Valuable,
Says a Munsey Writer

"oficial estimates OF the aggregate
amount of swamp land in the whole
United States differ" says william s.
Brldgman in Munsey.s Magazine for
April. In an article entitled THE
Enormous Wealth of Our Swamp
Lands" he says: Much Of our swamp
land has never been surveyed, and its
precise extent can only be estimated.
In a special report issued by the De-
partment of the Interior in 1903, the
total area of land needing drainage was
placed at 7s,473,7OO acres. or about 122,s15
square miles.
AS a rule continues the writer,
swamp land Is not bad land, but the
richest land known. 1t grows richer
with each succeeding year, as it's vege-
tation blossoms and dies, and the de-
caying matter mixes its substance with
the silt, fine earth, and other mater
tal that Is washed down from the up
per courses of streams or deposited by
overflows. The result is a soil of won
derful fertility, which has only to be
drained of its water TO be made the
basis Of splendid agricultural wealth."
