ADDITIONAL SECURITY IS ASKED TO RETAIN THE ATKINS
 ALLOTMENT.
S800,000 BAIL IS REQUIRED
Claims Property Has Been Producing About $3,0o0 Worth of Oil Day During Its Operation, Since
 Ownership Began.

Fort smith In order to retain possession of the famous Tommy Atkins allotment in Oklahoma, Charles Page, millionaire oil operator of Tulsa must furnish an additional bond of $500, ,000, a total of $S0O,OOO.
 This news reached here from St. Louis. where the United States Cir cult Court of Appeals issued the or der.
 The government recently applied to Judge Ralph F. Campbell of the Unit. ed States Court of Eastern Oklahoma for the appointment of a receiver for the property. The receiver was ap- pointed and Page appealed to the higher court. The district court fixed his bond at $200,000 and the govern ment asked the Court of Appeals to increase the bond to $SOO,OOo.
 A. l.. Ferguson, Fort Smith lumber merchant. and his father, J. A. Fergu- son, business man of Fayetteville. own 50 per cent of claim to the al lotment, which is also claimed by Page. who. has been operating it for the past six or eight months. Both Page and the Fergusons claim to have received title to the property from the mother of Tommy Atkins. Two sisters claim to have been the mother of Tommy Atkins and each deeded the property.
 The property has been producing about s3,000 worth of oil a day dur ing it's operation which began when Page assumed ownership, and is re- garded as being worth many millions of dollars
