Muskogee, Okla, Aug. 6.-Jake L.
Hamon, accused by Senator T. P. Gore
with having offered him a $4,000
bride to influence legislation in con-
gress for the sale of Oklahoma Indian
lands, took the stand before the con-
gressional investigating committee.
He denied that he at any time had
been closeted with Senator Gore in
the senator's office at Washington to
urge the approval of the contracts.
He denied he had ever mentioned
Vice President Sherman, Senator
Charles Curtis of Kansas or Congress-
man B. S. Mcclure of Oklahoma as
being interested" in the contracts, as
charged by Senator Gore.
He denied he had ever spoken of a
bride to anybody about the legislation.

McMurray contracts.
He denied that at the time the con-
tracts were being discussed he called
up Congressman Creager on the tele-
phone at Washington, asking for an

called him up; Mr.. Creager previously
had testified that HamOn asked an

Son Says Father Has Not Declined
Non1iN alton.

That John Lind may accept the
Democratic nomination as governor is
indicated in two letters received in
St. Paul from Mr.. Lind's son, Norman
Lind, of Everett, Wash.
Frank A Day, chairman of the Dem
ocratic state central committee, re.
ceived one Of these letters.
In this the interview supporting to
be from John Lind and saying he
would not serve as governor if elected
is branded as false.
According to Norman Lind, John
Lind gave out no interview after the
nomination was made.
All the messages received at Ever
, EFT and Seattle following the action of
the state convention were :-opt sealed
and handed to Mr.. LIND as he was
leaving for Alaska.
John Lind's statement Of accept
ance, or at least for permission to use
his name, is expected as soon as he
returns from the North.

T. P. Gore told the special Investigate

the amount would be raised to $780,.

we'll tell that he said an official high

by Senator Gore as the man quoted

Murray contracts.

Hawaiian Mahogany Reported

Official.

Los ANGELES, September BE.
/ partment of the Santa Fe, Will return
| home today from Honolulu, where he
went to sign up a contract for the en-
tire output of ohia ties of the Hawai-.
ian Islands.
Three years ago Faulkner went down
to the Islands to investigate the posi-
billties of ohia as material for rail
road ties and was so impressed that
he signed up a contract for 100000
on behalf of the Santa Fe Company.
Exhaustive experiments, made since
that time. have demon strated that ohia
is perfectly suited to the needs of rail-
road construction and in consequence
the Santa Fe has secured the entire
Hawaiian output for term of wears.
Oh1a is the heaviest wood known and
is also one of the hardest 1t is a
species OF mahogany. very knotty and
unsplitable. Experiments have demon
strated that il is affected but little by
the continuous pounding of heavy roll
ing stock and for that reason it is
being used in curves where strength
and durability is of the greatest i'm
pOrtance and cost a matter of second
arv consideration.
So far the ohia ties have been used
almost entirely in the mountain dis
tricts as the supply at the disposal of
the company has been too small to
stretch out over any great amount of
territory. With the increased number
available they will be used all along
the system where great stability is
needed
The Santa Fe uses more than 4 .000,-
600 ties year and for some time past
the problem of securing them has been
2 serious one. Oak. for years the stand
ard wood used in the fashioning of ties,
has been practically out of the question
and all sorts of makeshifts have been
tried. Some years ago concrete was
tried, but the tests were not entirely
satisfactory.
In certain classes of construction
work eucalyptus has been found prac-
ticable. To furnish a supply of this
wood Faulkner some time ago had 100
acres of the eucalyptus planted in the
southern part of the State.
The Santa Fe is now receiving ties
from Hawaii. Mexico. Japan and Tas-
| mania. Of all the woods available,
however. the Hawaiian ohia has been
found the most suitable.
The shipment of ohia ties presents
some serious difficulties as the wood is
heavier than the corresponding bulk
! in water and consequently ship load
ed with the ties is about as buovant
as one would be laden with railroad
iron.
