LIST OF "DUPES 15 A-LONG ONE Oregon Officials Unable to Estimate Extent of Recent- ly Discovered Land Frauds Bpecial Dispatch to The Call. PORTLAND, Dec. 3.—Only when all persons holding certificates for school land in this State have sent their cer- tificates to Salem to have them exam- ined, will it be possible to make an estimate of the extent of the gigantic swindles perpetrated on Easterners by unscrupulous land operators. Very few of the persons who possess forged certificates are known so far, but from the fact that persons in Min- nesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, New York, New Jersey, Ohio and Florida are in Dossession of them, the officials fear that when the whole number develops, it will include people in every State east of the Mississippi River. The heaviest losers known to the officials 8o far are H. Goddard, of La Crosse, Wis.; George Baldwin of Apple- ton, Wis,, and H. M. Delaittre of Minné- apolis. - Governor Chamberlain said at the present time he was unable to say who the fraudulent operators are. From other officials it was learned that there are certaln persons under suspi- clon, but It is admitted that this sus- picion is based on the fact that a man now under conviction in the Federal courts of comspiracy ‘to defraud the United States Gocernment on- the part of the public domain, appears as' the assignee of the original entryman in one of the forged certificates. On this piece ‘of property, which lies in southwestern Oregon, the State has issued two deeds on forged certificates. The original certificate was issued to Grant B. Johnson. One of the forged certificates shows that Johnson as- signed the property to H. H. Biggs, who reassigned it to Hiram Goddard. The other cate purports to have been assigned by Johnson to S. A. D. Puter, who reassigned it to C. G. Foster and W. H. Richardsen ¢ 2 CARY'S WEDDING CREAT SURPRIE Friends of Head of the Steel Trust Did Not Know of His | Regard for Mrs. Secott ACQUAINTED FOR YEARS San Francisco Woman, Maid- ‘en Name Being Townsend, Is Bride of the Magnate Special Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, Dec. 3—~The friends of Elbert H. Gary, chairman of.the board of directors of the Udited States Steel Corperation, were completely surprised to-day when they learned of the mar- riage of the Judge to Mrs. Emma Town- send Scott ‘of this city. It is said that the Judge's relatives, residing in Chicago and its environs, were equally surprised. Only the closest intimates knew of his attach- ment for Mra. Scott, and these knew that the marriage depended upon the set- tlement of certain legal complications in whigh Mra. Scott was interested. Among the friends of the Gary family in Chicago were Mr, and Mrs. A. 8. Scott. Scott is a wealthy dealer in art and di- York.: He is sald to have made large in- vestments in Steel stock and at ope time to have been closely connected with the steel trust people. At that ‘time Gary | was president of the Federal Steel Com- | pany and ‘was ‘prominent in the bar of Chicago, being president of the Bar As- soclation. J Friends of Mrs. Scott learned last year that a disagreement had arisen between husband and wife. Mrs. Scott had been living in this city, and here she brought suit for divorce. A final decree was granted in July last. The testimony was taken before g referee and extraordinary efforts were made to keep the case from the public. Mrs. Scott, who dropped the initials of her former husband’s name, occupled handsome apartments in the Hotel Seville, where she lived with her maid. Before her marriage to Scott she ‘was a Miss Townsend and resided in San Francisco. Mrs. Gary 1s a particularly striking woman. She is handsome, vivacious and an accomplished linguist and fine musi- cian and has traveled much abroad. She is a connoisseur of art and possesses a fine collection of paintings. Gary is one of the most notable figures in the finaneial life of the eity, belng immensely wealthy and & director in twenty big corporations.
