TEDDY AGAIN.
Another Alleged Connection With
Granting Prairie Oil Franchise
indianapolis Man Tells a
New Story.
The State.

Indianapolis, Ind, September 90
There is in Indianapolis a man whS
declares that he has the positive
word OF II. M. Barncsdale of Pitts
burg that President Roosevelt order
ed Ethan Allen Hitchcock. then sec
retary of the interior, to grant to the
Prairie Oil and Gas company a fran
chlse in the territory Of Oklahoma
after Barnesdalc, president Of the oil
company, had made a $2j, 1000 con-
Intuition TO the campaign fund Of
Benjamin B. Odcll, who was at that
time candidate for governor Of New
York.
The man who tells the story here
is one of the best known mon in the
State, but he declines to have his
name used in the matter for the pres
cnt. Hc is interested in the oil busi-
ness in Oklahoma.
MT. Barnesdale and I were to-
gethcr one day and the conversation
turned to the franchise matter
Barnesdalc told me he had been do.
ing business good many years and
had learned to look ahead and pre-
pare for what he might wish TO ac-
complish. Then he told me this story:
Barncsdale and Odell were rear
cd together and grow up together and
were fast friends. Barnesdalc cot
into the oil business and made mil
lions Of dollars, while Odell entered
politics. Odell succeeded as a politi-
elan, but never accumulated much
money. Barncsdalc applied to the
secretary Of the interior for a fran
chisc for the Prairie Oil and Gas
company to do business in tie Terri
tory OF Oklahoma and he saw at once
that he would have great difficulty in
inducing Secretary Hitchcock to
grant it.
Barncsdalc went to New York
and called on Odcll. Odell pred; |
his own election, but said he was ha1n-
pcrcd Tor money to make the canvass.
Barnesdalc told him not to worry
about the matter, for he had made
money and would be only too glad to
help him ont Barncsdalc gave Odcll
1000 as a contribution to his cam
paign fund.
'Odcll was elected and inaugurat-
ed as governor of New York. It was
probably a year after the contribu-
tion was made that Barncsdale found
that the Prairie Oil and Gas company
could not obtain its franchise from
Secretary Hitchcock unless Presi-
dent Roosevelt were to order it's is
suance. He then asked Odcll to 60 TO
Washington and lay the matter be-
fore the president. So he and
Barncsdale went to Washington and
called on President Roosevelt at the
White House.
"Odcll explained to President
| Roosevelt that Barncsdalc was very
good friend Of his and that h. had
done him many great favorS. Odell
asked the president to take care Of
the matter and TO see to if that the
franchise was granted. Roosevelt call
ed Secretary Hitchcock to the White
House and instructed him to grant
the franchise asked for by Barnes
dale. Hitchcock objected strenuous
ly, but President Roosevelt told the
secretary that he wished the fran
chlSe granted, and gave positive or
dtrS that it should be donc.'
