Judge Henshaw Of the corporation
commission states that the order is
sued concerning the Healdton field is
effective now. II Will be published
for four weeks. but is effective from
the date Of issue and first publication.
Under the order, any producer can
pump the full capacity Of his leases
for ten days and sell the oil to be taken
out in common carrier shipments and
after that is done. the producer can
not make further sales until such time
as he has pro-rata runs due him. Judge
Henshaw and Judge Humphrey took
great care in the preparation Of the
order, they went over the legal points
involved very closely. and are OF the
opinion that they have an order that
will virtually make every purchaser "a
common purchaser, and that it will
stand the test of the courth, Nothing
was said concerning the exemption Of
refneries and whether it will inter
fere with the operation of the Ardmore
refinery IS not known here, but the
chances are that no exemptions OF any
kind were made.

State Fire Marshal Baldwin has is.

'The sound business proposition con-

DENIES BASEBALL DOC DEAL
Bresnahan Refutes Story That He
Traded Pitcher Hopper to Spring
field, Ill, Club For Animal

=. Chicago, Jan. 1S.-Additional aft
davits were filed to-day in the United
States District Court by various Of
hcials Of organized baseball support
ing their contentious that the Federal
League was not entitled to the relief
asked in its suit for the dissolution OF
the National Commission and its affi-
hated clubs as violators of the Federal
antitrust act.
In one of the afidavits, Roger P.
Bresnahan, now manager of the Chi
eago Nationals, denied that while man
ager of the st. Louis Nationals. he
traded Booth Hopper, pitcher, for a
bird dog.
Bresnahan, with much detail told of
meeting Hopper in Tennessee while on
hunting trip and of trying out the
pitcher on training trip and of see
ing there bird dog whicn he admired.
The dog belonged to Hopper, the affi-
davlt declared, and was offered by the
owner to Bresnahan. The Bresnahan af-
tidavit then continued: IL told him
that l could not use the dog as 1 then
mad nve of my own. Just before the
opening OF the regular season, Mr..
hinsella, then manager and owner of
the Springfield, Ill.,, baseball club, came
to St. Louis in search of a pitcher. l
told him we had young man bv the
name of Hopper whom we were going
10 let out and if he wanted to talk with
aim and sign him for the Springfield
club ne could do so. Kinsella told me
If Hopper developed and showed anv
ability at all ne would give the St.
Louis National League club the first
opportunity to purchase the release that
fall.
During the conversation Kinsella
had with Hopper at our club house. in
81. Louis, Hopper again asked me to
buy his dog as he needed money. Mr..
kiRsella asked me if / wanted the dog.
| told him did, but as 1 then had five
| would not buy it. Mr.. Kinsella said
he wanted to do something for me and
If would accept the dog he would
buy II. do not know what transaction
kinsella had with Hopper, but 1 do
know that Hopper sent for his dog
and kinseila brought il to me at ST.
Louis.
The statement that l traded
Hopper for bird dog is an absolute
falsehood and l would suggest that Mr..
Hopper be communicated with, as he
can verify my statements as can Kin
sella.

NO INK FOR COUNTY AUDIT
Two Members Of the Board Report to
Do Work County Controller Al
ready Has Done

Francis W. Riegel and Fred W. Hus-
ton, two of the three Dauphin County
Auditors who a fortnight ago organized
for 1915 and decided to begin to-day
auditing the 1914 accounts of County
Treasurer A. H. Bailey, although the
County Controller already has audited
them, were this morning at their quar-
ters in one of the two offices of County
Controller. They were there this aft
ernoon too.
John w. Cassel, president of the
board, county officials said, had not re-
ported up until clock and his col
leagues would not say when he would
arrive to aid in the work. At 10
o'clock this morning the auditors got a
part of their supplies,-half dozen
pencils, two scratch pads, dozen pens,
three penholders, half a dozen erasers
and the report sheets.
They were told, they said, that the
countys ink supply now is exhausted
but that they would be given "some "
as soon as another supply was obtained.
Neither Riegel nor Huston would volun.
teer to say what auditing they intend
to do, now that the County Controller
hoo ioSuSo iOPOit Oh tHo county
financial standing covering complete
audit.
Whether they will 90 through the
same amount Of work the board has
done in other years, neither Riegel nor
Huston would say, although one of
them did declare, and emphatically too,
that: "If the reporters don t let us
alone we will bar them from coming
into this room.n
Riegel said he couldn't understand
why such fuss is being made about
US" although he added eff l cared to-,
l could give you enough stuff to fill a
paper"
He then referred to alleged irregu-
larities which he declared had attended
the auditing work in years gone by.
In the absence of Cassel, the presi-
dent of the board, the two members
"on duty" this morning said they did
not think it right "to 90 and get the
books and begin work." They said,
however, that if Cassel did not appear
by early afternoon one of the auditors
thought the better policy would be to
"start in without him. -
