CONNECTION WITH NORTH
ERN LAND FRAUDS

Chicago, April 2.-Federal Judge
Landis, hearing the case of Albert C
Frost and four others charged witt
Alaskan land frauds, today ordered
subpoenaes issued for George Turner
formerly United States senator from
Washington, and P. F. Mullen.
The latter has testified already, but
Turner is wanted as a witness be
cause of Frost having testified to
being guided to some extent by the
advice of Turner as to the method of
acquiring Alaska coal lands.
Judge Landis action followed the
reading today of letter by the gov
ernment in which it appeared Mr.. Tur-
ner had been instrumental in prevent
ing certain evidence from coming be-
fore the federal jury in Seattle, Wash,
which in 1911 was investigating the
alleged land frauds.
The letter, which was written to Mr.
Frost by H. S. Osler. member of 4he
firm of Mccarthy, Osler, Hoskin and
Harcourt, attorneys in Toronto, was
dated January 9, 1911 and read
Dear Frost: I have just had a
conversation with Osborne, who has
seen Boland and as the matter is one
in which letter ought not be pro-
duced, he suggests that it is better
that I should write you, SO the let
ter might be privileged.
"Boland is informed from Turner's
office by cipher telegram today that
the charges against yourself Watson
and Laberee are likely to be brought
before the grand jury at Seattle at
an early date. The banks are very
much worked up over this, as a fight
of this kind might block their plans.
Turner suggested that the evidence
of F. H. Stewart will be necessary in
order that a bill may be filed by a
grand jury and that he had better
keep him on this side of the line if
possible.
"BOland suggested that if you know
Stewart's address you should prob
ably send him such communication
as you think wise under the circum-
I'VE suppose here that having re.
gard to Turner's former negotiations
with you upon this subject on behalf |
of Laberre he had probably commu-
Dicated with you direct, and in case
he has not done so there may be
some foundation for the report"
According to the government, Null
len. while employed by the govern
ment to protect its interests, was ac.
tually interesting himself in behalf
Of Frost, and concealing certain facts
from the government Mullen denied
this charge when he was on the wiz
ness stand here.
