Georgia Con-

Chicago. June 3. The G. o. P. ma

old fashioned steam roller methods yes
terday in deciding the thirteen district
contests in Georgia.

the throttle, the organization disposed
of the individual Georgia districts by
approximately the same vote that the
four regular" delegates at large were
seated Thursday night.
In the first district, w. s. Daniels and
William James, delegate and alternate
respectively of National Committeeman
Jaekson's regular organization" were
seated over the contestants, said to be
for either Hughes or Roosevelt.
'Move we seat the regular delegates"
said Senator Smoot after each side had
argued.

vision field activity was centered in
! Wood, Hancock Sandusky, and Seneca
counties, where deeper drilling in terri
tory that was for the most part aban-
doned years ago resulted in the compile
ton of q number of wells that ranged
in yield between 20 and so barrels the
first day OF production. The striking
feat of the development in this di-
vision was in the Tifin district, Seneca
county, on the county inhrmary farm,
Eden township, where the Sun Go. com
pleted several wells that averaged more
than 100 barrels in initial production
and one WELL finished early in Septem-
Der, that was credited with $50 barrels
on its first productive day.
In the Indiana division, a moderate
field activity was confined almost exclu-
siyely to the productive districts in the
Wabash Valley, in the southwestern part
OF the state Only five new productive
wells were reported from the vast area
of Trenton rock production in the north
eastern section, where the lack of activ-
ity is due TO the almost total exhaustion
of the natural gas that was once so
pressed condition of the oil market,
which prevented the substitution of 9th
er more expensive fuels for drilling and
pumping the wells OF low yields in this
area.
In the southwestern districts moderate
activity was apparent in the Sullivan
district, Sullivan county, the Riley dis
trict, Vigo county, and the Oakland dis
.rict, Pike county. In the northern part |
IF Pike county the Emery Petroleum
20. opened an oil pool OF apparently |
small areal extent on the Sutton and I
Finney farms in section 80, Madison |
.ownship, about three miles west of Pc
,ersburg. but had considerable trouble
With salt water.
Developments were nominal in the
Princeton pool, Gibson county. and in the
yincennes district, Knox county.

SAYS HE
HAS NO ENVOY
IN CHICAGO
Justices Secretary Gives His Answer to
Stories of Hitchcock's
Activity.

Washington, D. c., june 3.--Laurence
H. Green, private secretary to Justice
Hughes, issued a statement yesterday,
denying that Frank H. Hitchcock or any
other person is authorized by the justice
to work for his nomination in Chicago.
Mr. Green said;
Justice Hughes has no representative,
and there is no man authorized to use his
name as presidential possibility. 1t is
surprising the impression has got abroad
that Mr.. Hitchcock is acting with the
authority of the justice.
I'VE supposed the public knew that
Justice Hughes has no representative,
nor anyone authorized to speak for him"
Mr.. Green refused to say whether the
statement was to be interpreted as re-
pudiation of Mr.. Hitchcock's work or as
a determination on the part of the JUS
tice not to be candidate

BASEBALL BRIEFS.

! Witt, up to this week, was hitting at
| a .2T0 clip and this week he has been
pounding the bali for over 400. This
isn't so bad when one stops to consider
! that shortstops are few and far between
that are hitting better than that. Witt
has been very fortunate in having such a
man as Lajoie TO drill him on the inside
points of the game. Since the season
started, Laioie has taken a lot of inter
est in Witt and when he takes any inter
est in player there is no better coach
than Lajoie.
Knabe's release marks the passing OF
another great player. As fighter for
every game there are few second base
men that had anything on Knabe before
he left the Philadelphia Nationals to join
the Federals. knabe's release was I'M
conditional, making him free agent.
Walter johnson has failed to win
game in Boston since the season of IDA.
Although he seld the Red Sox to four
hits, he was up against his equal, for
Babe Ruth went him one better in hold
ing the Senators to three scattered ones
MeNally proved himself to be the hero
once again, when he came home all the
way from second on an infield hit II
was nervy piece OF work as well as
speedy. 1t is this kind Of playing that
club owners are looking for, so it
wouldn't be surprising to see McNally
holding down regular berth before long.
There is another college boy about to
make his debut in the big league, this
being Wilbur Fisher, an outfielder on the |
college team, who signed con
tract Thursday to play on the Pittsburg |
team in the National league after the
college season closes.
The two big leagues shifted positions
some yesterday, Boston dropping into
The second division by their defeat and
-incinnati's victory over New York, this
putting Cincinnati in fourth place. In
.he American league Cleveland's defeat
placed Washington ahead of them and
st. Louis win over the Cleyelands placed
hem ahead of the Athletics.
