CLAIMS TITLE TO LAKE.
OIL FIELD UNDER IT. KING
BELIEVES.
Makes Entry Under Placer Mining
Act and Is Fighting for
It's Possession.

! A fight for title to AGO acres Of Ferry
lake in Caddo parish. southwest Louis
lana. and said to be oil field valued
at approximately S5,OOO.0NO. has been be-
gun before Commissioner bennett of the
general land Office. The claimant is John
B. King of Texarkana, Tex. who made
entry over one year ago under the placer
mining act He claims that the area OF
the lake was never turned over by the
government to the state of Louisiana. aud
as the attorney general Of that state did
not put in an appearance yesterday II is
believed that tho state Is content to let
the general government deal with the
proposition before 1t in any manner 1t
may deem advisable.
Former Representative John J. Lentz
of Columbus, Ohio: ]. A. Teller OF Little
Rock, Ark, and ]. d. Korner, also OF
the capital city of Ohio made UP the
legal array which presented Mr.. Kings
side of the case. AT the close OF the
argument Commissioner bennett took the
matter under Amusement. He did not
announce when decision will be rem
dered in the matter
For several months past it has been be-
lieyed that the state officials OF Louisiana
were going to put up vigorous hight Tor
the lake. which also has a considerable
area in the state of Texas. Several years
ago, while prospecting over the general
oil field In the section where the lake Is
located, Mr.. King discovered that while
the Standard Oil Company had located
its wells on all sides of the property, no
attempt had been made to locate on the
lake.
Looked Into Title.
He then went to work and made a. close
examination of the records bearing on the
Of tn 10
lake lies. This was formerly government
land before the back water from the Red
river overlooked the section and left the
lake. He ascertained. so it was pointed
out In the argument of the attorneys be
fore Commissioner bennett yesterday
that the lake was never turned over by
the general government to the state or
Louisiana, and he lost no time In making
an entry on the 4, 400 acres in question.
which is believed to be the richest In the
| section In point of possible oil FIELDS
With his entry he then made his plans
to bring the matter to the attention OF
the commissioner Of the general land of
flee, so as to perfect the title hefore ne
begins operations for locating oil Weils:
He talked at length yesterday or the
question and pointed out that as the lake
is only about two or three feet deep
1T will be comparatively easy matter
to locate oil wells in all parts. OF the
area covered by the 4, 400 acres In ques-
ton. Mr.. King Is positive from the In
vestigations he has made that the area
is Of immense value and hopes as soon
as he gets title to begin operations.
The section In which the lake is located
in both Texas and Louisiana is looked
upon by Oil experts everywhere as par
ticularly rich oil country, and this fact
has been singularly brought out. 1t Is de-
clared, by reason of the fact that the
Standard Oil Company has come into the
section and bought UP all the land bor-
dering on the lake.

SCIENCE TROUBLES NOT ENDED
First Church Trustees Adopt a Reso-
luton Indorsino Mrs. Stetson.


New York, Nov. 27.-The Christian
Science dispute at the First church is
likely to be reopened through a re-
solution, adopted by the board of trus-
tees, indorsing Mrs. Stetson. The trus-
tees declare that she always has been
and is now absolutely loyal to the
teachings of Mrs. Eddy. Although
they reluctantly accept her resignation
both as trustee of the church which
she built up and as member of the
congregation, they apparently regard
her as a martyr.
"The Endorsement is so fiagrantly
against the wishes of Mrs. Eddy and
the Mother church that I am sure the
Boston board of directors will take
some action regarding the local trus-
tees" Indignantly explained one of the
officials of the church after the meet
ing. "They obviously were insincere
when they Endorsed Mrs. Eddy's let
ter desiring a united church. This
action is like throwing glove in the
face of the Boston board of directors"
No action was taken regarding the
disposition of thes$100000 residence
of Mrs. Stetson. which adjoins the
church. DR.. John Franklin Crowell,
trustee, said after the meeting;
"She owns the house and may do
with it as she pleases,"
Mrs. Stetson's salary OF $4,000
year as rector emeritus has been dis
continued.

Miss Lena Ream of Osceola, Ia, had
the leading role of The Little Tycoon.
From the time of her first appearance
until the final curtain Miss Ream held
sway over her audience. Her beauti-
full soprano voice rose above the full
chorus in obligato, while her lighter
passages were most satisfying. Also
her ability as an actress showed that
she was especially fit for comic opera.
Miss Ream was ably supported by
cast of local talent, as follows: Ar

old Fletcher as Gull-Gull, interpreter
to the Great Tycoon; Miss Jennie Hall

in the choruses as tourist maidens,
Japanese maidens, hobgoblins, brig

showed evidence of hard work in re-
hearsals.
The opera was staged by Mrs. Os-
car Thompson of Detroit, Mich.

NEW LAWS FOR RAILROADS.
Mr. Taft Has Decided on His Message
Recommendations.

Washington, Nov. 27.-Yesterday's
conference at the white house suficed
to fix the presidents policy in regard
to the amendments to the interstate
commerce law. AS result of the con.
ference the president will make the
following recommendation on the sub.
ject in his coming message:
THE creation of a separate inter.
state commerce court, one Judge of
which shall have the power to stay the
proceedings of the interstate com.
merce commission sixty days. There.
after no injunction shall be allowed
against the order of the commission
unless granted by the whole court of
five members right of appeal from this
court to be direct to the United States
supreme court.
ITO give the interstate commerce
commission the initiative power to
bring complaints against unjust CLASH

fication OF merchandise for transpor-
tation.
ITO give the commission power to
fix rates after n complaint Is lodged,
and power to readjust classlhcations
when rates are determined to be I'M
just.
"To give the commission the power
to suspend, modify or annul any chang.
es In rates or regulations which inn
pose undue burdens on shippers; to
compel connecting carriers to unite
in forming a through route and to fix
the rate and apportion 1t among car
riers; to prescribe rules and regua-
tions under which shippers hall have
the privilege to designate the route
over which their shipments shall be
carried to the destination beyond that
Of the first carrier.
"To prohibit any interstate railroad
company acquiring stock in any com
peting railroad; to prohibit any rail
road engaged in interstate commerce,
after a certain date, holding stock in
any competing railroad; to prohibit
any railroad company engaged in In
terstate commerce from issuing any
additional stocks or bonds or other
obligations except with the approval
of the commission, based upon a find
ing by the commission that the same
are issued, first, for the purposes au-
thorized by law and, second, for a
price not less than par for stock and
not less than the reasonable market
value for bonds, such price being paid
either in cash, property or services,
and If property or services, then at the
fair value thereof as determined by
the commission.
"To permit railroads to agree upon
traffic rates and make contracts with
respect to rates that shall not be pool
ing contracts, but shall constitute
agreements as to rates, provided al
ways, that such agreements shall re-
ceive the approval of the interstate
commerce commission.
"To regulate the railroad and COM
mercial and telephone lines among
the same lines as prescribed for the
railroads"
There has developed an opposition
among the members Of the interstate
commerce commission and certain
members of the committee on inter-
state and foreign commerce against
the creation of separate interstate
commerce court of five members.
President Taft throughout the confer
ence contended that it was the only
method by which cases appealed from
the interstate commerce commission
could be expedited. Attorney General
Wickersham was of the same opinion.
Representative Mann, Judge Knapp
and Mr. Lane contended that it would
not hurry matters.
President Taft and Attorney Gener-
al Wickersham went deeply into the
matter of giving the commission the
power to judge whether stocks and
bonds issued by the railroads are in
consonance with the value of the road
and, also of changing the law so that
one railroad company cannot hold
stocks or bonds in a competing rail-
road, and that the railroads shall not
issue additional stocks or bonds other
than at par value and a reasonable
market value, respectively.
