UNCLE SAM OIL COMPANY RE-
PORTED INDICTED BY FED
EKAL GRAND JURY.
result OF 0SACE affair
Believed That Prominent Politicians
Have Also Been Named by In
dictmcnt of the Court.

ENID. okla, June 40 Special --
II became known Monday through un-
official sources that an indictment has
been returned by the federal grand
jury against the officials Of the Uncle
Sam OIL company and others. In the
indictments conspiracy Is charged
against the officials and others. II Is
rumOred tnat when those names are
made public, number of prominent
politicians will he involved and that
some in Washington Will be involved
when the grand jury opened Dis
t!ct Attorney Boardman said il would
be one of the most important in the
United States. and ii Is believed this
is the case he referred to. The oil
company owns leases In the Pawhuska
field, and recently had some difficult
ty with the department of the interior.
This is a final result of the fight be-
tween the officers of the government
and the people who believed in the
letting of the Unbiased portion of the
Usage to the Uncle Sam Oil company
and others. The Usage council re-
peatedly recommended the granting
Of the lease. but the secretary of the
Interior. Mr. Fisher refused to accede
to these requests. There were other
protests made by Dir. S. G.. Kennedy OF
Tulsa and other interested parties. and
finally the interior department re-
fused to stand for the policy of the
blanket lease on the 100000 acres.
There were stories that some money
had been used and these stories were
referred to the department OF Justice.
Mr.. Wickersham, then the attorney
general. instructed the district attor-
ney In Oklahoma to 20 ahead. When
the new attorney general was appoint
ed the entire matter was referred to
him and the action of yesterday is the
result. The original was that more
than $40. 900 had been spent In secur-
ing the consent of the members of tho
Usage council. This council was re-
moved by Mr.. Fisher and another one
elected at special election called for
January.
The World last night made efforts
to get the names Of those who were in
dicted. but Mr. Boardman, the United
States district attorney, had left Enid
and the Indian Agency at pawhuska
was without definite information.

Supporters Of Judge George w, Hays

cratic state central committee today
and succeeded in adopting resoiu-
ton requiring Mr.. Brundidge to sub
nit to the committee by Thursday all
evidence OF fraud In the recent guber-
Material primary election. Committee
members said this was done because
the law requires the committee to
certify the name of the nominee to the

er to have II placed on the ballot. Mr.
Brundidge's supporters protested that
II would be impossible for them TO
present their evidence by Thursday
They said that the state is so over.

Resignation.

Apparently William Strykcr is go-

ceeding Walter J. Reneau. There are
about twenty candidates for the Of
fee SO far, and all ale prominent
democrats
Mr.. Reneau has been notified by
the first assistant postmaster general
TO resign OI be hred. he has refus-
ed TO resign
There is no question but what Mr..
ieneau win be removed in fact the
order to that effect may already have
been made.
The question naturally recurs as to
who VIII he his successor and the
dopcsterS have figured that Editor
Stryker Of the Tulsa Democrat is an
odds on favorite.
For several months. Mr. Rencau
has been aware of the efforts To re-
move him. There have been two in
Nestieatiuns OF the Tulsa pOstotiice
within the last ninety days and the
best they could hnd was 80 minor ir-
reBularllics. II was never charged
that Mr. Rcueau was short in his ac-
counts ons cent. The only irregular
ities' that were discovered in the
office were lack of lights, lack of
room for the conduct of the business
of the Office, and the charge that he
did not devote his entire time to the
government service

Washington, March s. Further de-
tails Of the insults heaped upen the
women marehers in Mondays suffrage
parade and how the police laughed at
obscenites and made no effort to clear
the streets, were told today to the
senate investigating committee which
is attempting to fix the blame for the
disgraceful scenes on Pennsylvania
avenue
Former Secretary of War stimson
declared the law prevented his using
regular troops to oleai the streets. He
said he stretched his authority when
finally he did order a troop Of cavalry
to restore order
Gen. Mills Of the army who marched
in the suffrage parade, testified the
crowd was a sneering gathering oi
hoodlums at which the police smiled
but made no efforts to rehuke.
