FROM I MISUNDERSTANDING As
TO WHAT ARE PROPER CHARGES

Justice Of the Peace WI. I. johnson
w-o. ne state auditor in his report Port
stated had overCLarzes in cost bills
Of about SI45. YESTERDAY stated that
these overcharges were the result Of a
Misunderstanding Of What are proper
charges. and that he rad followed the
system of MS pred ecessor in Office in
making out cost bills Judge Johnson
said
In view Of the article published in
The Pensacola Journal of this date in
reference 70 overcharges in cost bills
presented 10 the county by me in Grim
inal cases. in justice 10 myself say that
said OVerchargeS occurred through q
misunderstanding as to what are proper
charges to be made and collected under
our fee statute. This fee statute IS am
blguous and II Is difficult matter for
lawyer to properly or correctly con-
strue it. much less one who IS not
lawyer.
Not being a lawyer. I simply followed
the precedent established by my pre-
deCessors in Office. making out and pre-
senring my cost bills, and which were
audited and paid by the county, the
commissioners being Of the same opinion
as myself regarding the construction OF
the fee statute. until I was advised by
the state auditor that some OF the
charges under his construction of said
statute. I was also advised by the state
auditor that I was entitled to fees under
said statute for which I had made no
charge The Overcharges. if not proper,
were made IN good faith under mis-
construction Of the fee statute. and have
been paid by me to the county.

attention of the governments OF the
United States, Great Britain and The
Netherlands. Approaching the great
injustice to the operators, who for
their safety were compelled to leave
the district, and so unable to comply
with their contracts and legal prOvI-
siOns, the three governments have for
nally agreed that they Will not sup
port automatically any claims to in
terests in the oil regions acquired d.
rectly or Indirectly by their respective
nations since April 90. 1914 which IN
any way were affected by cancelIa-
ton or confiscat ton resulting from the
ability of those outside to meet their
contrac+ra1 or legal obligations be-
cause Of military operations or the
disturbed political state in and about
TampiCO and Tuxpn.
This agreement in no way how
ever, affects any case in which the
owner could have performed his obli-
cations or any case OF legitimate
transfer.
There is little doubt but this ar
rangement by the three governments,
whose nationals constitute the great
bulk Of the oil operators in Mexico,
will be effectual IN preventing ad-
Venturers from taking unfair advan-
tage Of the situation of unrest IN the
Tampico district since Vera Cruz was
occupied
ConstitutionaIist authorities at Tam
pico have notified the state depart
ment that the tax on oil production
there shall be 20 cents per ton in
stead of 70 cents per ton. the rate
fixed by the latest Huerta. decree

AGREEMENT WAS TO GIVE
PROTECTION TO OIL FIELDS

Washington. June 4-The agree
naent between the United States Great
Britain and The Netherlands, was a
means Of protecting British citizens in
the Mexican oil fields, from spoilation,
was officially announced today in the
following statement:
The withdrawal Of the foreigners
from the Tampico oil fields after the
occupation of Vera Cruz by the Aneri-
lean forces and the danger of return
ing while military operations were IN
progress. have made it impossible for
the operators of the oil wells in every
case to meet their contractural obliga-
tons or to comply with the require
ments of the authorities As a pos
sihle result, some Of the contracts
may be cancelled or some of the prop
critics may be confiscated and the in
terests re-sold

here until late in the night. They
! transmitted to him the mediators' note
which had been written in reply to his
message expressing "astonishment
! that the Niagara proceedings had been
/ started without Constitutionalist par
| ticipation."
Carranza's answer was expected to
reach here today but there were indl-
cations that it would not be made
public until after it had reached the
mediators through Rafael Capmany,
ConstitutionaEst minister of the inter-
ior. in charge Of the Washington
agency The Constitutionalist agents
declined to give out the contents OF
the note from the mediators and they
would not reveal what took place IN
exchanges with their chief. Their
communication was interrupted to
give them opportunity to talk with
their counsel and at one time John
Lind was called into the conference
The outcome Of the negotiations anx-
iously was awaited by administration
chiefs. They were hopeful that the way
may be cleared for the Constitutional
list leader to enter the conference SO
that all of the elements now figuring
the southern republics plight might
be brought together to discuss terms
of restoring peace.
Secretary Bryan reiterated that
mediation was progressing favor
ably"
Assistant Secretary Roosevelt Of the
navy department, was to take up with
President Wilson and Secretary Bryan
today the report from Mexico City that
Huerta had ordered his minister OF
war to send Federal gunboats to Tam
pico to halt shipments of arms for the
Constituencies said to be enroute
from New Orleans.
Mr.. Roosevelt had stated that no
orders had been sent to American
naval commanders as to treatment of
the steamer Antilla, said to be carry
ing ammunition for Carranza, when
she appeared in Mexican waters. That
was regarded as an answer to the
query as to whether American war
ships would give protection to the
Antilla If Huerta gunboats attempted
to overhaul her.
Previously however II had been gen
orally understood that Rear Admiral
Badger had been informed by the
navy department that the Washington
government desired that there be no
interference with navigation at Tam
pico- In some quarters it was as
serted that American ships could not
interfere with any blockade of Huerta
without violation of the armistice.
