HOTEL NAN \ FEAR WORST peter .NOIiOn Not Seen Since Tuesday —Empty Launch Found Near Seven Mile Point, Considerable anxiety is being felt by the friends of Poter Nelson, for 15 years associated in the management of tho Klondyke footol in Nelson, who left town in bis launch on Tuesday morning to go fishing and las not been heard of since. At 10:30 a.m. yesterday Charles Maltby of the Canadian Explosives company, while on his way in his launsch to tlie company's powder magazine at Seven Mile point, noticed a boat stranded on the rocks about 50 feet west of the point. It proved to be tbe launcii__bolongliig to tbe miss* iii'S man, in whioh he hod- started away from Nelson 2li hours previouBl- ly. The position of the boat would Indicate that it bad drifted down the river from tbe direction of Proctor. In the bottom were found' Mr. Nelson's fishing rods and trolling lines, which did not appear to have been used, The rope used for mooring ithe boat had been severed, -suggesting that some epi'Bon had cast the launch adrift and had gone ashore with the rope On Ills return trip 'Mr. Maltiby towed the deserted craft back to Nelson behind his own launch and took it to his boat house, notifying Mr. Johnson, the missing man's partner, as soon as he arrived at 12:30. Mr. Johnson immediately took the launch and made a trip up the' river to investigate, returning late-In the afternoon without, having -found any traces of his partner. Mr. Nelson's friends are beginning to fear tho worst, as he was- an ex* peiienrced woods and boatman. Although it has been suggested that foul play is the reason for his .disappearance, there seems hut little ground for entertaining this theory. A thorough investigation- Is being mado by the provincial police. Today Constable King, nt the head of a large party, will make a search of the woods and river in the vicinity of the spot whore thc launohwae .found, _.'».' ,_^u! -.

LONDON, June 3.—Tho situation of the Germans across the .San river fs such that their only alternative is either a brilliant success or a disaster, says a Petrograd despatch to the Post. The correspondent explains thnt Gen. Mackenzen has at this point 1,000,001) men deployed upon a narrow stretch of territory, not seven miles wide, on the San, which is thel ronly communication with their base. Their front Is within eight miles of Mosciska, which is their immediate objective, a station on the main line of the railway to Lemberg. Doth flanks, the correspondent says, are being attacked hy the Russians, who are gradually closing in on the narrow neck of land running from .laroslau to the river Luhaczowka, Which alone is available for communication with the Gorman rear. Wants to Win Railroad Gen. Maekenzen, the despatch adds, has got to gain the railway at any cost leading to Przemysl and join hands with forces operating in the region of the fortress. The Germans are fighting on three fronts, north, east and south, with their communication to the west seriously threatened. It is not yet Known whether the German attempt to save tho situation by a frontal attack ou Przemysl to relievo tho pressure on the main German forces across the San will be successful. Another despatch says: "The Puissians are well prepared for the employment by the Germans of poisonous gas, which is now being used on all tiie fronts in bombs at artillery range and Qgainst trenehes at close quarters. Uul in the attack thc Germans to their cost find their enemies quite alive and active. The Russian methud is to lu- low until the enemy is almost on the trenches, when a Withering bias! of fire annihilates the attackers utterly." Battle's Fury Unabated LONDON, June n.— The battlo of Przemysl, which is proving one of lho most stubborn and sanguinary of tho war, continues with unabated fury. Both sides have poured reinforcements Into the field and with attacks and counter-attacks the losses in men and material are piling up to an unprecedented extent. Tho German and Austrian reports claim that some of tho forts on tho northern front havo already fallen and thut on tho ^uutheasterii front their troops are proceeding toward territory that Joins tlie fortress with Lemberg. But the latesi Petrograd communication says that, the Germans who entered one of the forLs were driven out and makes no mention of the capture f StryJ or oilier successes claimed by tlie Teutonic allies. To the southeast simultaneously with this battle the Germans are making another effort to break through the Bzura lines toward Warsaw, but Whether this is a serious attempt to capture the Polish capital or only a diversion to prevent the Russians from sending more reinforcements into Ualicia is not discloaod. The Germans claim ti> have captured Upwar dof 300,000 Russians and an Immense amount of material during May. Despite this, the Russians do not appear to have slackened their resistance, Russians Attack Strongly VIKNNA, June 2.—The following officiul statement issued by the Austrian war office tonight says: "The Russians have, renewed their Strong attacks against the allied troops on the eastern bank of the San. Desperate attacks havn been repulsed with heavy Russian losses. "On tho northern front of Przemysl two additional fortifications have been stormed and we have maintained the conquered ground. "South of the Dniester our attacks are successfully progressing. Hostile. positions between Stryj and Drosobycz were stormed yesterday.

Can-lck gives interesting details of recent operations at the front. It is dsitecs May 15 and says in part: "On arrival out here I was at once posted -to Gen. sMdei-son's staff and shortly afterward detailed to -be stationed at British general headquarters as a necessity had become apparent for somo one to act as a connecting link [between Canada and the war office and the division and British headquarters. This is about -the only point in this section of France where under present conditions cables can be received and despatched promptly. My reception at British headquarters was most cordial and Gen. Lambton, military secretary to Sir John French, at once arranged to have a motor ear placed at my disposal so that I should be able to move rapidly about as occasion required. I was fortunate tn this respect, as hardly a day passes but that I receive numerous cables from Ottawa with instructions or requests for information from Gen. Hughes, and having the car, there Is no delay either ln securing the information asked for first hand or carrying out his behests. "You 'will have read so many accounts of the second battle of Ypres that I will not attempt to give you any version of my own. Three or four days (previously—when our 3rd brigade was about to take over the French trenches where the fighting subsequently occurred, I Bpent the night with Gon. Turner in the -trenches. On that occasion nothing adnormal happened but there was desultory shell fire all through the night, continuous musketry firing and the darkness was Illumined every few minutes by flares and torclses so that any movement by cither side would have been speedily discovered. On the afternoon which the battle opened not long before the French wero fumed, 1 was up at ■hoadquarters of our 2nd hrlade. At that time there appeared to be nothing on foot, hut on my way back through Ypres, which was more or loss crowded with soldiers and' civilians, the Germans had already commenced a bombardment with shrapnel and high explosive shells, which, lasting for many days was to complete the devastation of that city. That day there wero over 4(H) casualties ln Ypres. The havoc wrought by the high explosive shells is indescribable, one shell alone being sufficient to knock down the side of any ordinary house or make a hole over 40 feet broad and 12 feet deep should it pitch tn a street or tjpen place.1' NEWS HEN PRE SB WITH WRIST WATCHES Evam, Stuart and McDonald, Members of tha 64th, Receive Tokens of Appreciation.

JUDGE WILL Ml PERSIANS TORTURED BY TURKISH 80LDIER8 Men Massacred and Girls Taken As Slaves—Knox Graduate Writes A letter was received by Prof.A. H. Abbott from Rev. E. O. Eshoo, a native Persian who ia a graduate of Knox college, Toronto, and who has been acting as missionary to his own people. Mr. Eshoo reached Christianla on March 9. His voyage waB apparently without incident, except that the ship was held by an English cruiser tot seven hours and two passengers were taken off. On March 14 Mr. Eshoo reached Petrograd. He speaks in the kindest way of the Russians and their helpfulness to him, but regrets that all his correspondence, even down to newspaper clippings, some of which he had treasured for many years had been taken from him. This of course, was largely because they were written In Persian or English, and the Russian officials could not read them. They have however promised to send them on to him If they contain no objectionable matter. Mr. Eshoo writes from Tlflis, Northern Persia, on March 23. The substance of his letter is aa follows: Destitute Refugees On the way from Petrograd to Tlflis he met many refugees In most destitute circumstances, without clothing or food, many of them without boots. After reaching Tlflis and meeting acquaintances he got definite reports of his people in Urumia. The Russians hold as far south as Tabriz and Sal- amas. Urumia, Mr, Eshoo's home, is still in the hands of the Turks and Kurds, and it Is In this city and district that the people have suffered most. There are about 25,000 refugees in Tiflis and vicinity, and many more are scattered through Russia. The American missionary in Urumia, Rev erend Dr. Shedd, reports that about 12ofthrlstian villages near that city are ourned to the ground, and several thousand people have been massacred In their houses. The Christian men of every village were captured and then taken to the cemetry where they were tied in groups of five, then some of them were shot, some of them had their throats cut, and others suffered tortures t various kinds. Of the women, thc older women nre frequently killed, the younger women and girls are taken as slaves, whilo even little children are most shamefully treated. Cared For by Missionaries • Many hundreds of refugees are In the compounds of the American missionaries, aud have been protected by them as much as possible, but a telegram was received on which Mr. Eshoo wrote, stating that thc Turkish Consul with seventy of his soldiers had forced an entrance to the house of tiie Amerlcen missionary. Thoy took out three native pastors and two deacons, were Insulted In various ways, aud then compelled to walk barefoot, for the sport of the Turks and Kurds, through the city, after which they wore hanged, some of thom being left hanging for days. One of the American missionaries tried to secure the bodies, but he was beaten, and then they erected the pole on which they had been hangod, in the yards of the mission. Here a certain number are hanged every day. Ah Mr. Eshoo's family and his sons are with the American missionaries, he Is naturally expecting to hear that his sons have been killed and the other members of bis family taken into slavery. Fifty Deaths Every Day As tbe people are so terribly crowded in the mission compounds, hundreds have already died from sickness. Mr. Eshoo reports that through sickness, hanging and othor causes, from 45 to 50 die every day. Exactly the same report has reached him with regard to some 3,000 refugees with the Catholic mission. The most noted pastors and teachers among these have already been banged or shot. An attempt was being made when Mr. Eshoo wrote, to get the State Department of the American government to authorize the American Consul at Tabriz to go to Urumia, as it was believed he could stop the massacre. If this could not be donebe done It was believed that all the men would be killed and all thc women taken Into slavery. Mr. Eshoo believes that It would not require a very large Russian army from Tabriz, to overcome the Turkish army In Urumia, and the distance between tbc two places is only about fifty miles. It it quite evident from Mr. Eshoo's letter that the Persians are well pleased with the conduct of the Russians, the only regret being that they are not In stronger force. Mr. Eshoo expects to follow the Russian army as soon as they enter Urumia, but when that 'movement will take place is not known. Mr. Eshoo learned just when he was writing his letter, from a man who had fled from the village In which his mother and sister lived, that his mother Store Closed All Today "Smillie&Weir LADIES' WEAR SPECIALISTS Namur in Belgium IS SITUATED IN THE ARDENNES MOUNTAINS, AND BEFORE IT WAS DESTROYED BY THE GERMANS WAS NOTED FOR ITS CUTLERY, ITS FIREARMS, AND ALSO FOR ITS BEER; THE MOUNTAIN WATER BEING THE CAUSE OF THE LATTER'S REPUTATION.

Ltd. had been killed and his sister taken into slevery. Tbe funds which have been subscribed through Rev. Dr. McTavish for helping tbe refugees in northern Prussia, will bo used as opportunity presents Itself. It Is quite evident from Mr. Eshoo's letter that he lias not yet got to the place in wliich he can help his peoplo very much. MRS. MARY WHIPPLE DIES (By Daily Newa Leased Wire.) VANCOUVER, B.

Having something to say- Saying it in the right way- Saying it in the right place at the right time. And in the latter phase of the problem the daily newspaper stands pre-eminent. It is essentially the right place and as it is published day in and day out it is easy to suit the words to the time. Newspaper advertising is the most productive form of advertising.

DETROIT.—Tho efforts being mnde In both tlie major leagues and the 'Federal leaigjuo to speed' up the d'aily games Is already beginning to show results. Complaints from the cities represented in all throe circuits, flrat called the attention of tho leaguo executives -to the fans' objections to long drawn out contests and thore was Immediate action on the part of the baseball authorities. President Ban Johnson of tbe Amer* tcan league, notified the. junior organization club managers that less time must be consumed^ in playing games 'and that several time-killing practices muBt. be discontinued. President GII- more, of tho Federals, took a similar stand and Intimated that he might offer prizes in order to shorten the average playin's session. In. the National league tlie matter was also given careful study arid several plans considered to improve (he conditions. A study of tbo playlirg time figures of tlie three leagues discloses some interesting details. Using the April contests as a basis it is shown tliat tho average In, tbo American league for ifrorn 10 to 13 contests is two hours and five and one-half minutes. The Federal league clubs under similar conditions required two hours two and one-qiiarter minutes to play 11I110 Innings, while tho National league made tbo best showing with an average of one hour, 5214 minutes. Of the Individual clubs of the American league' the Washington team led tbo organization with an average of one liour 51 minutes. Boston and New York followed with averages five and seven'Minutes slower, respectively. St. Louis consumed the most timo, the Browns requiring two hours 19!'. minutes, with Chicago but ono mlnuto faster. The Philadelphia iVa* tlonnls were the hustlers of tlie Toner circuit, averaging one hour 44 minutes for 10 games, with the New York Giants but one-half minute slower. Chicago required two hours 11VJ min* utea and Pittsburg also crosBes the two-hour mark. In Ibe Federal loaguo the Pittsburg club showed the bost time, averaging one hour 50 minutes for 13 games. Buffalo showed Uie other extreme, requiring an average of two hours a-nd 27 minutes i'or 12 games.

C. m COME OUT SHY If Giants Don't Get Into Race Soon League Will Be Hurt Financially. NEW YORK.—Unless the Giants climb Into the pennant tight snon— and stay in lt—every dub in. tho -National league stands to suffer a loss o[ from $30,000 to $25,000 through poor attendance-at the Giant saines during IMij. Tiie Giants hnve been saviors of the 'National' league for 10 years. They iiave been the power that bas kept many clubs from bankruptcy in years gohe by. They've done their work nobly, hut in this year, of all years, they have faltered at tbe start. They got away !bad—and they can't seem to go right. If the Giants aren't in tbe race for the balance of the season it will mean a loss ot nearly $300,000 in attendance recolpts to tho league as a whole. The Giants still hnve more than 100 games to Play. About halt are at home and half abroad. Wlien the Giants were in the pennant right they averaged a dally attendance of 0,000 at a-1-1 games. Some slays during the mlddlo if tho week the flmire dropped to the 5,000 mark, but the Saturday attendance, which averaged around 15,000, generally brought the average up to 9,000—and sometimes beyond. If the (Slants stay ln the rut it will decrease the average borne game attendance to 4,000. That means n. difference of 5,000 per game, or 300,000 for tbe remaining home games. Giant Losses Great. The Giants used to draw an average of 5,000 daily while on lho road. IJ they are out or tlie pennant fight that average cer-Uilnly will drop to 2,500. That makes a difference or 2,500 per day. Tho loss of 300,000 patrons at the remaining home games, and 150,000 at tlie remaining road games makes a grand total or 475,000. The gate receipts usually avoraigo HO cents a head. That means that'at a conservative estimate the- Giants would play to $285,000 less, if out of the fight than If they were ll*. the right. The entire league would suffer along with the Giants because the' gate receipts are split 60-50, except on 76 per cent and $1. admissions. Divide tbe $285,000 eight, ways and it shows that each club would lose about $35,001) through the failure of the Giants t'o bs-h^ among the pennant contenders all tha way.

The late tulips, Darwins andi Parrots, that were fairly presentable when I left, were dragged wisps of dirty color; tall perennials were flopping untidily, weeds were everywhere, and the only gleam ot brightness came from the laburnium trees, that, like huge chandeliers, bung their fairy lights of pendant blossoms to cheer me in the green gloom. I never seem able to realize in spring when the trees are bare and1 thin from their recent pruning just how they are going to "spread themselves" when they get their summer dresses on, and this year they seem to have adopted the new styles ifor their 'garments are more voluminous than ever and I seek In vain for an open space away from their ubiquitous shadows. The appeal that comes to me ottener than any other Is for advice as to what -to plant In shady places, and under the circumstances it seems almost like Insult added to Injury when I am nearly at my wits' end to find something suitable to plant In my own "shady places." I think this Is the chief reason why I enjoy my spring garden better than at any other season for the bu'libs do well even under the fruit trees, but once they are over, the problem of what to plant above them for later bloom again presents Itself. This year I am growing violas and have some nice young plants of yellow and white sorts which I intend patting ln among the tulips for late summer bloom. These small pansles I have found to be wonderfully free in blossoming, and as they last for several years it will be a great relief if they do well in the bulb beds. Unfortunately, though, I usually plan to grow my annuals over the bulbs, and If 1 give up any more space to perennials shall le at a loss for a place for asters, stocks and such Indlspensa- bles. I notice that some fine young Plants of pink stocks that were set out among the Emperor narcissi near a cherry tree have "damped off," but that Is probably due to the rain as well as In the shade. I am loath to admit It, but I fear the garden that blooms from March to November Is almost Impossible of attainment unless one has unlimited open spaces. But this Is treason and I will not be beaten yet, but try aij-aln and1 again until I find the right flowers for any position, for surely It can be found, though the Ideal of continuous bloom means endless work and attention to detail. And after all, who would want a garden without trees and shady nooks? No matter how many flowers were blooming if there were no trees and shruljs it would be only a sort of nursery and not a garden. Just here I am reminded of the most charming compliment my garden ever received when a lady who had visited It sent me the following poem in a letter. Last week an unknown correspondent enclosed the same lines In an envelope and posted them to me and I take this opportunity of saying thank you, and pass on the verses that you may all enjoy them: My Garden. A garden Is a lovesome thing God wot! Rose plot, Fringed pool, Fern'd grot— The veriest school Of peace; and yet the fool Contends that God Is not— Not God! In gardens! when the eve Is cool! Nay, but I have a sign; 'TIs very sure God walks In mine. —Thomas Edward Brown. I must confess to feeling very humble and yet very proud that one who had visited my garden should think It worthy of suggesting such words, but I am sure the beautiful treeB were what helped most to give the impression that mayhap "when the eve Is cool—'tis very sure God walks in mine." I could not help noticing the beautiful trees that clothe the mountains all along the right of way of the Great Northern railway between here and Grand Forks. The evergreens are Just putting forth their new tassels and every balsam and hemlock looked as If the edges of their draperies had been embroidered with scallops of pale green silk. I never saw such HavsaJy young hemlocks as between here and Ymlr and along the banks of the Columbia were growing small bushes that were either juniper or red cedar that I certainly coveted' for my evergreen screen. It is perfectly maddening to rush by all sorts of fascinating trees and flowers so fast that one cani't even Identify them, let alone '#et a Hpeclmen to add to one's collection. This time I was luckier than usual, however, and came home with several treasures. Going along towards Frultvale my eye was caught by a new Wue flower which I felt sure I had never seen before. It was simply exasperating to be unable to examine It closely and I fretted myself Into quite a nasty mood when lo! a washout over which we had to walk and there by the side of the track several blossoms of this same flower. I did my best to get a root, but like all these bulbous things, the root goes down to a great depth and though I ruined a pair of gloves I had, to be content with the blossoms alone. Imagine my glee when at Marquis, where there Is a wait of half an hour, a short walk disclosed a simple plaint and with the aid of a pointed stick I dug up the round bulb and have it now planted in my choicest corner aloni.ii with bulbs ot the Mariposa Illy, which some people consider the most beautiful wild flower of British Columbia. This blue flower Is quite new to me, and is really lovely. It grows on a straight, wiry stem, about 18 Inches high, which bears a cluster of II or 12 pendant bells of a lovely lavender blue with six stripes ot clear azure blue leading to the tips of the petals. The flower gives the effect of a double bell, but Is really a simple tube with' three points showing outside and three set inside between them. The leaves are straplike, something like a narcissus leaf, but thinner and more pointed and there appeared to be only two from eaoh bulb. A man on the platform at Marquis asked me if I were sure It was not the Death Camas, a bulbous flower that had killed over a thousand sheep the week before quite near there. I told him I hoped not, Ibut on reading -the account of the Death Camas I am not sure that It is not the Blue Camas, as the paper says there Is a blue variety which is, however, quite harmless, even edible. Anyway it Is a lovely flower and1 I am so glad to be able- to add even one to my collection of wild flowers. Other things— weeds my husband calls them—that I brought home were a sort of wind- flower, whose blossom takes the form ot a tutt of feathery hairs shading from green to pink, which are beautiful for vases and will, I think, keep perfectly In a dry state for winter bouquets. The flower (gp-ows from a tuft of very handsome leaves and is about a foot high. Then there were a number of plants of wild blue larkspur, hardy pentstemon and1 sand hoses, a- sort of cactus like pink flower that grows on the <(ry prairie, which proved the very finest thing I ever had for growing on top of a wall in a dry, sandy spot. I got some last year and was delighted to find some young seedlings around the parent plants this spring and brought home a lot more, which I planted In the hot, dry corners where nothing else will grow; though, to be sure, it Is somewhat difficult to believe any place will ever be hot and dry If this rain lasts much longer. After we got down out of the high places the wild roses were everywhere In bloom and never in my life did I see such a profusion of them. They were just at that pinkest stage of perfection when they have just opened and before the stamens have shed their pollen and a little cluster I manage* to grab as we walked across the new track scented the whole car. But the most beautiful sight of all was the trees In their new spring green, and I never wearied of looking at them. After leaving Marquis the way led through a sort of rolling country whero the hills of velvety smoothness were the paler, ten* derest green of new grass against which the magnificent evergreens stood out in all their grandeur. I could not help thinking of that littlo poem which I have quoted before, but lt Is so well worth repeating that I am going to quote It again: Tree,. I think that I shall never see A poem lovely as a tree. A tree whose hungry mouth Is pressed Against the earth's sweet flowing breast. A tree that looks at God all day, And lifts Its leafy arms to pray. A tree that may in summer wear A nest of robins in her hair; Upon whose bosom snow has lain, Who intimately lives with rain. Poems are made by fools like me, But only God can make a tree. —Joyce Kilmer. I have used up so much space in telling of my trip that I fear I must close, but will beg Indulgence to give you a warning about your peonies. This wet season Is particularly hard on them and I find a lot of mine have succumbed to the fatal Botrytis blight. This annually attacks the stems just at the surface of thc ground causing them suddenly to wilt and fall over, but later In the season ithe but'j? are attacked and blight or rot. There seems no cure, though some authorities advise spraying with Bordeau, but I cannot do better than give the advice of tho best authority I know, the Garden Magazine, whicli is as follows: "This Botrytis disease Is to bo controlled only by the most rigid and prompt eradication of diseased shoots, buds and leaves.' Inspect the plants every day until after blossoming time at least, removing every wilted stalk or diseased bud and burn them. Cut the tops early in autumn, removing the soil from the crowns and cutting the stems down as close as possible and burn the refuse. It is in the old stubble that this pest lives from year to year." In this last sentence I get an explanation of why I have suffered so from this peony disease, for I have always left the old stems on the plant till spring, believing it better to let the stems die down naturally. The disease Is always worse in a wet season and unless dry weather comes soon I fear my peonies will be a total failure this year. ■Nelson, B. C, May 28, 1915. MAKE IT EASIER FOR WIVES OF SOLDIER8 TO GET PAY (By Dally News Leased Wire.) OTTAWA, Juno 2.—Numerous com- s-slsilntss are reaching the department of militia regarding alleged nion-paymet»t of separation allowances to wives or dependents of Canadian -soldiers who have enlisted tor service. In regard to these complaints the department iB considering a certain relaxation of the technical working of tho provision. It is pointed out that when a soldier enlists his wife or dependent Ib entitled to the separation allowance of bo much per month, according to his rank, from the day of enlistment The chief reason of the difficulty seems to be the Inability or neglect of the soldier to give satisfactory evidence of his marriage. These are, It Is said, however, cases of hardship where men hasve na marriage certificates or whero it is difficult to obtain It. In somo cases ■it la event -hard to ulvo the exact place whore registration has taken- place. It ts announced therefore that ln Heu of isuch certificate the department will accept as testimony -the evidence of a clergyman or any prominent and reputable citizen in tho district where the marriage took place. No certificate will be required whero such orlds-nce is forthcoming. THE ONLY WELL KNOWN MEDIUM PRICED BAKING POWDER MADE IN CANADA THAT DOES NOT CON- TAIN ALUM AND WHICH HAS ALL ITS INGREDIENTS PLAINLY STATED ON THE LABEL. E.W.GILLETT COMPANY LIMITED WINNIPEG TORONTO, ONT. MONTREAL 20,000 APPLIED FOR Two Americans Are Charged at Vancouver With Defrauding Many People of $250 Each. (By Dally News Leased Wire.) VANCOUVER, B. C„ June 2.—No less than 20.000 applications were received from Canada -from persons who had been induced to apply for quarter sections of the Oregon and California land grant, stated Chief Clerk C. F. Impey of the lands department of the railroad In Portland, In his evidence In -the assizes today. Impey .Is a crown witness against Taylor and Lewis, two American real estate men, who are chargied with having defrauded a large number of people In British Columbia of $260 apiece by inducing them to pay that sum and apply for a quarter section. The suggestion Is that other men engaged in the same business as Taylor and Lewis had induced 20,000 people In Canada to part with $2,50 apiece In belief that they would thereby obtain a valuable quarter section ot land. Most of the applications came from eastern Canada, Alberta and Saskatchewan. In his evidence Mr. Impey said that the land department of tho railway never solicited applications and the numerous persons who applied at tho counters of his office were informed that the men who were out canvassing for applications were without any authority from the railroad. Letters had been sent out by his staff in many instances informing applicants that the men had no authority. The deputy recorder of Clackamas county, Oregon, in which much of the land Is situated, testified that the lands claimed by the railway were originally granted by a patent of the United States to T. D. ami Everett Collins, promoters of tho railway charter In 188(5. The patent and later Instruments required that the land should be sold to actual settlers ln blocks of 160 acres at $2.60 an acre, but the entire grunt was cancelled by the courts In moR because the railway had failed to live up to these conditions. In 1D12 the United States congress had passed a law removing tho lands from being filed on, yet the offices of the county recorder were being deluged with applications from parties In different parts of the United States and Canada. Evidence given by the numerous local witnesses was that Taylor and Lewis had Induced them to hand over $250 apiece in the belief that they would get a valuable quarter section of the land. They alleged that the men had represented' that the litigation between the railway and the government had been settled and that they could assur them a first filing on Use land.
