Washington Sends George Ca

GeneraI-Situation Said to
be Grave in Mexico.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 19.-Informa
ton as to the gravity OF the situa-
ton in Mexico was obtained today at
first hand by leaders of congress when
they asked cabinet members about
the possibility Of adjournment.
They were told that adjournment
does not depend upon the European
situation so much as conditions in
Mexico and that the outlook south of
the border is worse now than it has
been for a long time.
1t is understood that the bad news
is TO the effect that the various fac
tons in Mexico realizing that Ger

much engaged to participate diplo-
maticaily or financially in Mexico's af-
fairs and believing that the activities
of Japan will absorb the attention Of
the United States, intend TO take ad-
vantage of what they consider their
4 opportunity. The administration has
information which leads il to believe
that Villa intends to precipitate an
other civil war and endeavor to over
throw the new CarranZa government.
The state department and the
white house denied today that this
government mas made any threats to
Villa with a view OF bringing about
an adjustment of his differences with
the Carranza government, but the
state department admitted ii was
using its influence to induce Villa to
accept conditions as they are and
contribute to the ultimate pacihcation
Of Mexico.

Washington, Sept 24-Arustem
Bey, the Turkish ambassador, has
informed President Wilson that he
does not alter his views, which he
recently expressed in published
interview and will leave the United

Wilson asked the Turkish ambas.

announced withdrawal is taken to in
dicate that Wilson is determined not
to allow foreign diplomats to en-
danger the United States neutrality.

FOR ANOTHER
PAYMENT To
THE INDIANS
CONGRESSMAN CARTER URGES
PAYMENT OF THREE HUNDRED
TO CHoCTAWs AND TWO HUN.
DRED TO CHICkAsAWS.

Washington, Sept. 2i.-Congress
man Carter has asked the commits
sioner of Indian affairs to make a
recommendation for carrying in the
next Indian appropriation bill a per
capita payment of three hundred dol
lars to Choctaw Indians and two hun.
dred dollars to Chickasaws.
The one hundred dollars excess for
the Choctaws over the Chickasaws is
necessary to balance the accounts of
these two tribes, since hundred

being made to the Chlckasaws.
1t is set forth by Congressman
Carter in his petition that agreements
provided for a division of these funds
not later than March 4, 1907 and
that the time for keeping the gov.
ernment's pledge has been already
more than seven years delayed.

PRAIRIE PIPE
LINE STOPS
TAKING OIL
COMPANY ANNOUNCES 1T WILL
PURCHASE NO MORE CRUDE
OIL IN THIS STATE. ORDER EFF.
FECTIVE TODAY.

Muskogee, Okla, Sept 23.-Tht
Prairie Oil and Gas Company an
nounced tonight that it would not run
any more oil from Oklahoma fields
| through its pipe line. The company
has been handling about $4,000 barrels
daily. The order becomes effective
tomorrow and will be continued in.
definitely.
Oil men believe the Prairie's action
was caused by an order of the corpora
tion commission, issued yesterday,
prohibiting them from purchasing
crude oil for less than Csc. An hour
before the order was issued by the
commission, the Prairie company cut
the price to 55c.
Threats of violence and of dynamit-
ing pipe lines are alleged to have been
made and oil men have already on one
occasion petitioned Governor Cruce to
place the oil fields of the state under
martial law.
The decision of the Prairie company
reached at a meeting of its board of
directors, held in independence, Kan,
today. came like a thunderbolt to the
Oklahoma producers. Meetings will be
held tomorrow when the producers
will strive to devise ways and means
to meet the company's action.
The Prairie Oil and Gas Company
runs a great portion of the oil from !
Oklahoma and its decision to stop the
purchase of all crude oil will fall as
heavy blow to the already congested
fields.
Last year Oklahoma produced Co.
100000 barrels of crude oil, at price
hat averaged about 81. This years
production will be almost double, at a
price much lower. Oil began to de-
