Washington, Jan. 1.-THE refusal
OF Secretary Of the Interior Lane to
grant the oil 1en who have been ad-
vocating the raising of the acreage
limit on departmental oil leases q
hearing to answer the protests made
by some of the so-called Independent
operators in Oklahoma, after Commis-
sioner Sells had promised, 1t is said,
to grant such a hearing, has angered
the members of the Oklahoma cor
poration commission, Governor Dob
Williams, Ex- Attorney General West
and prominent oil producers, but the
entire Oklahoma congressional dela-
cation as we'll made the same recon-
mendation, and all of them were flat
ly turned down by the Indian office.
The action of the department probab-
" means that no additional oil pipe
line facilities in Oklahoma will be
provided I'M the immediate future
and that the Standard Oh company
will be left in undisturbed possession
Of the Oklahoma oil fields.
Those persons who have given the
question careful consideration are of
the opinion that additional pipe lines
no matter by whom constructed Or
opesatef, would have relieved the
congested condition in the Mid-Con-
tinent oil field.

MAZE OF TANCLES
New Haven Director Charged
With Complicated Finance.
JanitOr of Portland Building

New York, Dec. 1.-THE tangled
financial transactions alleged to have
been engineered by Edward d. Rob-
bins, former general counsel of the

railraod. TO get the steamships Harvard
and Yale to the Pacific coast. melted
him a profit of $691,000, according to
the reckoning of the government
counsel from testimony adduced
Thursday in the trial of Robbins and
ten other former directors of the New
Haven road. charged with criminal
violation of the Sherman law
In an effort to unravel the skein
the government called to the stand
Warren D. Chase of Hartford, Conn,
Robbins's chief agent in the dealings.
The transactions had their center in
Charles w Morse's defunct Metro
politan Steamship company, which
owned the Harvard and Yale. and four
freight boats. The government al
leges that the New Haven wanted to
get rid of the competition of the two
passenger steamers and gain control
of the freight boats and that in behalf
of the New Haven, Robbins advised
the scheme by which it could be done.
The scheme included the orga nization
within a months time of five COM
panies, maritime and otherwise, and
affiliation with as many others
With Robbins pictured as The direct
ing genius of the activities of the COM
panies, the testimony described the
switching back and forth among them
of their stocks, bonds, etc, with the
net result it appeared, that the Har-
ward and Yale were leased to the Pa
cific Navigation company, one OF the
new organizations. Robbins had an
alleged profit of S691.000, the freight
boats were sold TO the Eastern Steam
ship corporation, stock in which was
owned by the New Haven. and Rob
bins became the owner of $500 shares
of that corporations stock personally,
both together being enough to con-
stitute a majority.
Warren d. Chase insisted that Rob-
bins had told him that he had en-
gagged in the enterprise purely for his
personal profit and that he never
heard Robbins say the New Haven
was interested in it, or knew of any Of
RObbins's co-defendants having knoWI-
edge of it.
How the Metropolitan Steamship
company of Maine, No. ?, another of
the hastily formed companies, was

NEWARK, n. J., Dec. 3.-NNho is the
best amateur golfer of the year-Jerry
Travers, who won the open; Bob Gard
ner, who won the amateur champion
ship or Max Marston, who won the
most invitation tournaments during the
golfng season. Marston, the New Jer-
sey champion, has earned an enviable
place in golf in the season Just closed.
When the handicap committee decides
on the relative merits Of the amateurs
next spring Marston will not be far
from the scratch mark, He won six i'm
portant tournaments in 1915, including
the championship of New Jersey. He
was also runner-up at two other big
tournaments and was semi.fnalist in the
amateur championship at Detroit. His
latest achievement was the winning of the
Thanksgiving tournament at Lakewood.
Only three weeks before he triumphed
at Atlantic City. It was in the anna
teur championship at Detroit that Mars
ton probably made his best showing.
Having the championship almost in his
grasp, he missed a short eighteen inch
putt that would have given him the
match with Gardner and put him in the
final. Marston has proved himself an
ideal match player. lie does not care
about breaking records in qualifying
rounds, being content to save his energy
for his opponents later on.
