INJUNCTION GRANTED
TO TEXAS OIL COMPANY

Muskogee, Okla, May z6.-The
Texas company, one of the big trunk
oil pipe line concerns operating in Ok
lahoma and Texas, was granted an in
junction yesterday in the federal court
restraining the Central Fuel Oil com
pany and twenty subsidiary companies
from interfering with the piping of
oil from the properties of the Central
company into the tanks and pipe lines
of the Texas company. A receiver
also is asked to take charge of the
Central properties, so that its con-
tract with the Texas company will be
complied with. The Texas company
alleges it has contract by which the
Central company is to furnish the Tex
as company with 10000 barrels .of oil
day at Al cents.
Since the contract became effective
the price of oil has advanced to 46
cents barrel in the open market and
the Texas company charges that the
Central company is trying to violate its
contract.
Court officials and clerks worked all
last night to get service on the Cen
trail company. Twenty-eight separate
injunction orders were made. Local
oil men believe that this marks the
beginning of a fight between the Tex
as company and the Prairie Oil & Gas
company for control of the production
in the Oklahoma fields. The injunction
is returnable June 2.

Can't Hunt Without License.

Oklahoma City, May 26.-The state
fish and game warden has received
an opinion from Attorney General
West holding that no person is au-
thorized to hunt in this state for any
class of game, even though it does not
fall within the regulations of the
game and fish laws, who is not sup
piled with hunters license. An ex.
ception is made that any person is au-
thorized to hunt on his own premises
without license.

UNABLE TO GET JURY
FOR ARvID JOHNSON TRIAL

Special Judge E. NJ. Probasco, in
the district court, yesterday afternoon,
overruled the motion of the attorneys
for Arvid Johnson TO quash the in
dictment charging him with participa-
tion in the alleged Farmers Record
swindle, on the ground that he had
been once in jeopardy on the same
charge. The trial was set for today.
At three o'clock this afternoon the
court was still trying to secure a jury.
The regular jury panel was exhausted
and a new venire ordered, This also
proved futile and it is probable the
third venire will be ordered this aft
ernoon.

EVANS REMOVED
FROM UNIVERSITY
Statistical Clerk of the Santa Fe Tes-
titles at Hearing Before State
Corporation Commission.

Oklahoma C'k. slay 26.-''T There is
not state vest of the Mississippi
river said 5ames Hsabody of Chi
cago, testifyi g before the Oklahoma
corporation commission yesterday,
permitting rate on strictly inter.
state traffic that is remnnerative
The witness is a statistical expert
for the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe
system, and the nearing was on the
commission s proposed rates on grain,
hay and grain products, with which it
is proposed to supplant the tariffs en-
joined by Federal Judge Hook some
months ago. Mr.. Peabody also said
that while the rates in the far Eastern
states are considerably less than those
of the Western states, there is a great
er amount of traffic, permitting great
er return upon local business In his
criticism of the commissions of West
ern states, Mr.. Peabody said they did
not permit sufficient rate, consider
ing the density of traffic.
In arriving at the cost of operation
the statistican employed the formula
announced by the federal court in the
Missouri rate cases, that is that results
show it costs so per cent additional to
handle strictly state business than it
does to handle interstate business. For
the year ended June, 1910, earnings of
the Atchison lines proper ON business
moving exclusively between points in
Oklahoma amounted to $619,926, and
applying the so per cent rule to the
debit side of the balance sheet, the
cost of handling the business amounted
to $620,55S loss of $632. The figures
made no allowance, Mr.. Peabody stat
ed, for interest, rentals, taxes and
other miscellaneous charges which the
traffic must bear. The Gulf, Colorado
& Santa Fe, which is the Texas line,
did somewhat better. The revenue for
the same period on interstate hauls
was $121 ,125, while the cost under the
so per cent additional rule equaled
$lO0,933, leaving a net revenue of $780,
1872. Out of this must come rentals
taxes, interest and other items.
The commissioner advanced the idea
that the proposed rates, with milling
in transit rules and application of two
or more line rates, would increase the
state business and thereby the compa.
nies would suffer no loss.
Columbus Halle, vice president and
traffic manager of the NJ, k. & II. sys
tenn, with headquarters in st. Louis
told the commission that the proposed
rates substantially are the same as
those enjoined by Federal Judge Hook
and since the present rates are not re
munerative, the proposed tariff, which
was reduction, would not be- WheI
the commission IS rates were enjoinet
Mr.. Halle said, each road had to make
8 new tariff, for under the antitrust
law competing lines could not agree
upon new rates. The Katy adopted
rates in line with its rates in Kansas
which were less than the rates in Texas
or Missouri, both commission made.

Oklahoma City, May 26.-That the
caterpillars, which have been devast
ating. the orchards in northern Okla
homa, have done all the damage that
can be done by them this year, and
that there is no occasion for further
worry along that line, is the opinion
of Prof. c. E. Sanborn, state entomo-
logist, who has gone into the matter
thoroughly at the request of Secretary
Ben Hennessey of the state board of
agriculture.
On account of the present dry sea
son. however, the damage to trees may
be very serious, although the damage
already done by their defoliaton would
not kill them if there should be sufi-
cient rain from now on and weather
conditions were favorable to their
growth. In regard to the caterpillars
Prof Sanborn says:
"fThere recently have been many in
quiries concerning caterpillar which
has been defoliating the forests and
orchards of east central Oklahoma.
Some people believe the worm to be
the dreaded gypsy moth. If it were
the latter there would certainly be
great cause for alarm not only through
out Oklahoma but our neighboring
states as we'll
All specimens of caterpillars thus
far received at the A. g.. M. College
from the reported localities have prov
ed to be other than the gypsy moth.
In fact, most of them have been spring
canker worms and caterpillars. There
is but little doubt concerning the spe-
cimens which are reported as devour-
inc entire forests and orchard foliage.
The state nurserymen and the inspec-
tors have been exceedingly careful
with shipments of nursery stock ori-
ginating or passing through gypsy and
brown.tail moth infested districts.
cit can also be stated that no gypsy
or brown-tail moth infestation is at
present known to be west of the New
England states. Many specimens were
found in nursery stocks two years ago
that were consigned to nurserymen of
the central and eastern states. 1t IS
generally considered now, however, that
no specimen was allowed to escape cap
ture and destruction.
"Anyone not well informed concern
ing the technical descriptions of in
sects could not tell the difference be-
| tween the two, the tent caterpillar
mentioned and the gypsy and brown
tail moth caterpillars.
'eThe common tent caterpillar or M.
Americana, has light-colored strip
the full length of its back The M,
Distria has a similar marking except
that it is discontinuous and is in the
form of little diamondshaped mark
ngs. The gypsy moth has no such
marking, and the same may be said
fo the brown-tail moth caterpillar
The two latter are similar in size to the
tent eaterpillars and are covered with
hairs and bristles much like the for
mer, but it is almost impossible to de-
scribe them without the use of techni-
cal language so that they could be
recognized as being distinct from
many other common non-important
forms. The tent caterpillars are now
pupating, that is, they are going
forms. The tent caterpillars are now
ing as adult moths. The latter is
fawn-colored and oloks much like the

President Porfrio Diaz is dead. Long
live Citizen Porfrio.
President Diaz in a letter read by
the president Of the chamber of depu-
ties yesterday afternoon resigned the
presidency of the republic of Mexico,
and at 4.54 O'Clock the acceptance Of
the resignation by the deputies was an
nounced.
Everyone had expected an uproar
and demonstration when the announce
ment should be made, but within the
chamber the words announcing the
event were followed by silence. The
deputies seemed awed by what had
taken place. In the streets, however,
black with people, every thoroughfare
leading to the han being blocked, news
that Diaz was at last no more president
was the signal for wild shouting and
manifestations.
There was no violence nor no de-
struction of property.
On the motion to accept the presi-
dent IS resignation, 167 deputies voted
ave, while two Of them did not express
themselves. They were Benito Juarez,
descendent of President Juarez, and
Conception Del Vale. AS their names
were called other Legislators arose and
bowed their affirmative.
In a similar fashion, the resignation
of Vice President Ramon Carol, now
in France, was unanimously accepted,
and similarly Francisco Leon De La
Barra, late ambassador to Washington,
was chosen provisional president.
Washington, D. c., May 26.-The
Mexican contingent here expects the
term of President De La Barra to ex-
tend over at least six months. as it
will take that long to get the crude
and rusty electoral machinery work
ing. 1t probably will be December
before new president can assume
office The change in the presidency
will not affect the Washington en-
bassy Neither will the restoration of
peace affect the troops in Texas
