Prof. Ohern, Of Norman, Doesn'r
Agree With Haworth.
6hnsan's Report Based on Old
Fields, He Says.
MANY NEW POCKETS
Four Wells Found Since Report
Yield 40 Millions.
PancO City Field Not Even Con-
sidered by PedagOgue.

Norman, Ok. Dec. 7.-Prof. D. w
ohern, director Of the Oklahoma geo.
logical survey here, is being asked by
many persons regarding his estimate
OF the Oklahoma gas fields, which
Professor Haworth, state geologist of
Kansas, says will be exhausted in
three years at the present rate of
consumption For four years Mr..
Ohern has had direct charge of the
investigations in the Oklahoma oil and
gas field These Investigations are be-
ing carried on by the United States
and state geological surveys. When
asked today what comment he had to
make, he said:
Professor Haworth is a good man
and ought to know what he is talk
ing about I have seen his report
only as given in newspaper dispatches
He may be right in his conclusion that
Kansas City probably will be without
gas three years hence That amounts
to saying that the gas field of north
east Oklahoma will be exhausted in
that time. But it is difficult to har-
monte his judgment with facts.

ENDORSES SHERMAN LAW
But Judge Gary Says Nobody Knows
What Is .'Under Restraint of Trade -

Washington, Dec 7-E. H Gary,
head of the United States Steel COrpo-
mitree on interstate commerce today
that he always believed it was entirely
legal for competitors to come together,
mutually disclose their business cOndi-
lions to steady and balance trade,
without making any agreement on
prices.
He urged a federal commission au-
thorized to consider management,
character and extent of corporations
and to permit certain pooling arrange
mcnts when conditions warranted.
mo corporation has the right to OBJ
ject to the Sherman law if it means
as I think it does, that no co1nbina-
ton shall be created with the purpose
of creating a monopoly, or the neces-
sary result of which shall be the Gre
ating of monopoly or which shall be
carried on for the purpose or With the
result of unduly restraining trade he
said. but the trouble is that no one,
not even the courts, knows what will
be an undue restraint of trade.
If the United States steel corpora
ton has not done business in a fair
way, if is is not doing business fairly
now, 1 am willing to concede that
there ought to be a law to compel it
to do So" said Mr.. Gary later.
Senator Pomerene asked if the cor
poration had not been greatly over
capitalized when formed in 1901.
ION the basis of the original cost of
the properties involved it was I'M
doubtedly overcapitalized, said Mr..
Gary, but on the basis of actual val
ues of these properties it was not over
capitalized" Senator Pom erene aske ed
the Steel trust had been
formed as the result of a financial
com bination or to meet the necessities
of the trade
1T was not Wall street exploita-
tion," emphatically replied Mr.. Cary
THE leading and controlling motive
was to form a corporation for business
purposes of real and substantial bene-
fit to the countrys business, not in
imical to any one

EXPERT IN MATRIMONY
But Alice Halls Fourth Venture Slips
Cog

Alice Halls indiscriminate loves
caused her to draw a severe rebuke
in Judge Dana's court today, when
records showed that she had married
Allen Brown two months before her
decree of divorce from a former huS-
band became effective. Following the
scathing rebuke from the court. the
woman hurried from the court room
and left Topeka on the first train to
escape the promised arrest on state
warrant.
- Alice Hall deserved more than pass
ing attention as a heart breaker. At
least four men had banked their con-
fidence and love against Alice's win
ming smile. The woman lived with
Brown nine months when she sought
relief in the courts Then it was dis
covered that the woman's marriage
with the North Topeka man was il
legal.
Judge Dana gave Alice Hall a divorce
from S. G. Spencer-husband No. 8.
The decree said that neither party
should marry for six months, but Alice
forgot this part of the decree when
she met Allen Brown, a North Topeka
stone mason. She was married to
Brown January q, 1909-two months
too soon
On September Il, 1908, less than a
year from the date Of her former d.
Vorce. she brought suit against Brown
for a divorce. In her action she tied
up Browns bank account, his North
side property Not until May, this
year, was Browns property released
from the courts orders. This was
done on a showing that Brown and
the woman were never legally married
and that she was guilty of bigamy by
failing to comply with Judge Dana's
orders. The woman is perhaps 20|
years younger than Brown, who has
passed the 7O-year mark. He is an
old soldier and we'll known in Topeka.
When the facts in the case were
presented to the court, Judge Dana
prom pity set aside the marriage.

NEW JUDGE IS HERE
Van VaIISenberg of Kansas City Will
Try Packers Case.

Judge A. S. vanValkenberg. of the
western district of Missouri. will try
the Kaw valley drainage case, which
was called today in the United States
circuit court The appointment of
Judge Valkenberg was made on
the demand of the defense in the big
damage suit.
The case, which was brought 80 days
ago by the Fowler Packing company
against the drainage district involves
81 SOC, 600 in alleged damages to the
packing conlpapy's property in Kansas
City as result of the operations of
the drainage board. Specific claims
which are set forth in a lengthy petit
ton charge an indiscriminate destruc-
ton of property and seizure of certain
riparian lands without appraisement
