 LAND TRIAL
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

CHICAGO. March 25-The defense had it's innings today in the trial of Albert C. Frost and four of his as- sOciateS who are charged in the federal court with conspiracy to ob- tain control by unlawful means of vast tracts of coal lands in Alaska. 4 number of alleged dummy" entry men were called to contradict the governments charges that they ap- piled for claims merely for the pur- pose of turning them over to Frost.
 Special Attorney General Town send. conducting the prosecution, crcss examined witnesses, eliciting from none of them the fact that they knew where the claims were or had paid any money on them. The wit nesses denied. however, they had any fraudulent intentions.
 Arthur J. Mullen. former receiver for the United States land office at Juneau. Alaska. was called to con trovert the testimony of Q. c. Laba- rec. q former associate of Frost who had said he had quit the land deal in 1906 warning Frost that he was headed for the penitentiary. Mullen said Labaree had written him as late a; 1908 asking about the status of the claim.
 Mulent left the United States ser vice at the request of former Secre- tary of the Interior Walter Fisher after the Alaskan land fraud indict- ments were returned.
 The name of former Secretary of the Interior Ballinger was again in iccted into the record when a letter from Frost to Ballinger dated April II, 1910. was introduced in which Frost urged the reappOintment of Mullen. The government on cross examination endeavored to show that Mullen was closely connected with Frost while he was receiver of the land office at Juneau.
