Asserts Bee Spsar1 Industry Has
NetMate to Cover Up.
Colorado Springs Colo. June IS
"An outrageous proceeding" was the
manner in which Clarence O. Hamlio.
of this City characterized the proceed-
ings' In "Washington by which the sen-
atorial committee investigating the so-
called lobby interests of anti-fretf
sugar gained possession of his corre-
spondence. Mr. Hamlin was emphatic in his
statement that while he has nothing
to cover up even- declaring that he
would voluntarily appear before the
committee the senate took unfair
lining of acquiring information con-
cerning the activities In the campaign
waged by the beet sugar industries of
the country that he would cheerfully
supply. '" . '
The campaign carried on was Justi-
fiable in view of the fight made by
the refiners for free sagar was the
way in which Hamlin summarised the
situation.
"We had our backs to the wall and
had to protect ourselves" -he de-
clared. "There is nothing In connec-
tion with the industry that was not
open and above board. We tried to
persuade the people that there was
another side to the story."

less'koisk AT CONCERT
WHBK POLICEMAN APPEARS
Military night at Cleveland square
was doubly enjoyable Tuesday evening
thanks to the Second cavalry musicians
and a big blue coated policeman who
kept the kids from making so much
noise. The "cop" appeared soon after
the eoneert started and warned the. boys
and girts who make a practice of racing
through the crowds yelling that they
must either sit down and behave or
their parents must take them home.
The moral effect was fine and the con-
cert was doubly enjoyed by those who
went to hear the music and not to play.
The special selections were played
with a swing that makes army music
go thrilling. The Quaker Girl." the
"Egyptian Suite" and the clarionet solo
by chief musician Dapp were well re-
ceived. The descriptive selection "Trip
to the Farm" was a musical romp. The
band could be heard marching down the
street boarding the train to ride out
to the farm and the finale was a trip
to the barnyard where all of the fowls
and animals were stirred into activity.
For encores which were given for each
selection the band played military
marches and popular airs.
MORE EVIDENCE IS SECURED
IN OIL OUSTER SUIT
Dallas Texas June IS. Charges that
the Magnolia Petroleum company a
Texas corporation had tried to drive
out of business another state company
the Pierce-Fordyce Oil association in
order to secure a monopoly in Texas of
certain alleged Standard Oil products
were made by the state in the hearing
of its 199000000 penalty and ouster
suit.
During the examination of P. M.
Hackett formerly in the employ of the
Pierce-Fordyce company but now sales
manager of the Magnolia company in
north Texas the state introduced affi-
davits signed by Hackett in which he
declared agents of the Magnolia had en-
deavored to have Pierce-Fordyce em-
ployes accept employment with the for-
mer company arguing that the Magnolia
would soon secure all of the Texas busi-
ness of the Pierce-Fordyce association.
Hackett testified that the affidavits
he signed last year were based on hear-
say evidence and he had since learned
that some of the statements "were in
serious error."

Fort Collins Colo. June 18. Judge

inary hearing the girl wife made an

ing that she had written the figures "18"

described the operations of his company
on Paint Creek. He said his company
could not afford to grant the increase
demanded by the men.
Mr. Connell said no guards had been
sent to Paint Creek until after the
mines had been closed.
"Did you bring any transportation
men Into Paint Creek after the strike
began r asked attorney Watts for the
operators.
T?es we spent $18822 to bring men
in there." repUed Mr Connell.
He filed with the committee several
statements. One of them showed that
the average wage in the Paint Creek
mine was (4.00 a day to all miners.
(5.81 a day to the best miners and
(2.15 to men working by the day. An-
other statement showed the cost of
conducting the strike to his company.
The statement set forth that the Paint
Creek company paid (15240 to the
Baldwin-Felts agency for the service
of guards. (8546.65 for such miscel-
laneous expenses as the purchase of
gttns and (1094 for the services of
guards selected after the Baldwin-Feltx
men had been withdrawn from the
field.
Under cross " examination. Mr. Con-
nell said that in the final negotiations
before the strike he had refused a
proposition which involved no Increase
in wages but simply provided for the
"collection of union dues" out of ths
pay of the miners.

WAR MUST COME SOME

Chief of Staff of IT. S. Army Declares
Every Young Han Should Have a

Pittsbur". Pa. June 18.-Assirtinjr
that war must come at some time and
declaring that every young man should
hare a year's military training Maj.
Gen. Leonard Wood chief of staff of
the United States army discussed "Our
Military Policy to Preserve Peace" at
the annual commencement exercises of
the Carnegie Institute of Technology.
"I do not wish to introduce--a spirit
of criticism against the peace policies
which are being instituted by your
founder Mr. Carnegie" said Gen. Wood
"but I want to impress upon yon that
as much as we want to avoid war we
can't do it. Knowing that it is among
us we of the armv are training- men
to handle it as skillfully as possible.
"We know that war is coming. We
know that it is nonsense to say that
the day of war is over. Wars are not
made by individuals but by the pressure
of public events.
"If war were forced upon us tomorrow
it would be necessary for this govfh-
ment to call out 600.000 men imme-
diately. For this army we would need
between 16.000 and 17000'officers. Yet
we have only 4000 ofiersrehirf to
command. We would have to send our
troo to the front unprepared. The
inevitable result would be that disease
would kill more than actual warfare."

V. S. CONTIXTJKS FIGHT FOR
OIL LAXDS Df THS WEST
Washington. D. C. June 18. In an
effort to validate the federal govern-
ment's claim to thousands of acres of
oil lands in Wyoming and California
valued at hundreds of millions of dol-
lars and even as high as a billion dol-
lars according to some estimates at-
torney general McReynolds has defin-
itely decided to appeal from the deci-
sion of United States district judge
Riner. of Cheyenne Wyo.. upholding
the Midwest Oil company's title to 4000
acres in Wyoming. This is a test case
and around it revolves many tracts of
valuable oil lands claimed by other
Interests.
Not only will this case be appealed
but a similar case pending at Los
Angeles will be prosecuted and many
other suits will be soon filed to con-
test the title of innumerable claimants
and prevent their withdrawing the oil
until the ownership is settled. It is
believed the issues finally will reach
Uie United States supreme court.
