REPORTS **AMENDED,
Russell Didn't Want Prospective
Customers to be Misled.
A Cleveland, Ohio, despatch: During
the eress-examination of W. L. Rus-
sell, the mining broker and banker of
Lima, Ohio, before United Statee
Commissioner 'Walther to -day, an en-
counter between ltssell and judge
Francis Wing, attorney for the
Canadian authorities, was narrowly
averted. Questions as to two reports
of the mining engineer, Magee, wore
fired at Russell in Sueli perplexing
nuniber by Wing that the witness was
several times at a loss for an answer.
His confusion was brought to it
climax when Russell, following a ques-
tion as to why he had made a pencil
draft of a repOtt, changing the orig-
inal one sent in by Magee, rose from
his chair and asked in a loud voice:
"What are you trying to do, Judgel
kMnioxwm.,,e up? You can't do that, you
Judge Wing replied by ordering the
witness into his seat, at the same time
reproaching him. Russell's face flam-
ed and he continued to talk in a high
Voice. Attorney Tolles interposed, and
sacceeded in restoring quiet.
The point Wing tried to bring out
by cross-examination was that Rus-
sell himself had. not .only.swritten
garbled report on the properties, but
that ho had sent it to newspapers in -
Ontario end throughout Canada and
the United States, knowing it to be
false.
Russell contended that Ile had made
the amended report So that there
would be no misleading of proepec-
tivo customers. He said; furthermore,
that be knew of the use of the report
in newspapers only once.
It le expected that the testimony of
D. T. Hughes, ono of the original
owners of tho claims transferred to
Russell., and by hint turned over to
Law & Co., will bear out that of
sell 14). in. many particulars. There ir.
