WOULD ELIMINATE DIKES
WHICH FLOOD OIL LEASE
State Claims That Oil Companies arc
Running Oil Value OF
Rivcr-Bcd Land

Claiming that the defendants are
building dikes at the edge of their
property to turn the course Of the
Arkansas river into adjoining land,
the state of Oklahoma. by Attorney
General S. Prince Freezing, filed suit
in district court yesterday against the
New York Oil company and John
Carney.
The land connecting with that Of
the defendants is owned by the state,
by virtue of its being in the bed of the
Arkansas river, an officially navigable
stream. An oil lease is owned by F.
ID. Davis and A. l.. Younger, who
pay the state a substantial royalty.
According to Freeling's petition, the
defendants are erecting dikes on the
dividing line between the two proper
ties thus diverting the natural course
of the Arkansas river over the here
tofore dry river bed. This precludes
the possibility of drilling for oil and
leaves the defendants free to drain
the river-bed with wells on their own
property, according to the state.
A restraining order is asked by the
attorney to prevent the erec-
tion of the dikes or tho fu"'her inter
ference from the defendants.

say the allied offensive has consisted
of only direct attacks against line
of Notifications stronger than any
fort of former days. The mass of
trenches, entanglements, armored
strong posts and fortified villages eX-
tends miles back of the front on both
sides, so that in effect n fortified belt
stretches from the sea to the Swiss
border that is perhaps more than one
hundred miles wide.
1t is the belief of some military
men here that no breach can be made
for many months thru the German
line of sufficient width to permit such
operations in the rear as would force
rolling of the entire German front.
Admitting all these points, however,
there Is no sign of discouragement
among American officials. President
Wilson'S declaration that the nation,
not merely an army, must be made
ready for war is being carried out
determinedly and apparently with
confidence that in time men and sup
plies can be got to France in suffi-
cient force to make certain the re-
suit.

HOLLWLG TO MICHAELI,.

II is quite apparent that the change
OF German chancellors is not rad
teal one, at least as far as aims of the
government viii be affected. In fact.
II there is any difference, the change
is for the worse. Hollweg. as far as
we can gather, had become altogether
too liberal To suit the extremists OF
the nation, who. backed by the crown
prince, demanded more strenuous
administration. The kaiser evidently
was unwilling, Individually, to accede
to the extreme measures of the junker
class as he has sense enough to see
that some things must be done with
n view to what will follow the end
of the war He is very much like a
fellow about to drop from high
place who is anxious to find a soft
spot for alighting. The crown prince,
on the other hand, with the vigor and
enthusiasm OF youth and the absence
.of the ripper Judgment of his father. is
dead set for a war to the end pressed
with all possible vigor and with no
precaution for possible defeat or
chance 70 claim the mercy of the vic
tor or to face an angry and dsilu-
stoned nation at home.
The utterances OF Michaells. as far
as vet reported, are simply platitudes
Of the most common kind. but they
demonstrate n total lack of any con-
cepuon Of the rights OF anybody bat
Germans and Il total contempt for any
consideration OF what may result from
n possible defeat. lie is specially in
favor Of submarine warfare and goes
even farther than his predecessor to
Justify the undersoa policy He also
rehashes that old stuff about Ger
many being forced into the war that
the kaiser himself sprung with theat-
rical embellishments when war was
first declared Tho recalcitrancy of
the reichstag, which so many thot
presaged the coming OF more liberal
and democratic policy, seems only to
have put farther Off than ever the day
when Germany can hope to declare
her Independence from the yoke which
for half a century the house OF Hohen-
zollerh has put upon them. Eventu.
ally they will find their way to the
light but before that time probably II
will be necessary To experience a de-
csive military defeat one of suffi.
cient Importance TO convince them of
the depth of their deception by their
trusted rulers.

MORALE OF ALLIES IS GOOD
Army Officers Return from Franco
With Encouraging Rcport

WASHINGTON. July 25.-Secretary
Baker In a statement tonight Jan
nouncing the return of the mission of
American army officers sent TO
France to study technical questions.
said that the mission "is unanimous In
its praise OF the splendid morale of
the allied forces on the western front
and while 1t shares the general reali
zation of the gravity Of this war II
has returned without any pessimistic
opinion as to its final outcome"
The secretary said he had found no
truth In stories published In various
newspapers today purporting to quote
members of the party as saying the
German lines are impregnable.

Attorneys for Harry Bowden

District Court for Bond.

Contending that there was no.
enough evidence introduced at the
preliminary hearing to hold the pris-
oners without bond, attorneys for
Harry Eowden and Sam Roberts filed
n petition in district court yesterday
for habeas corpus. The two men ask
that they be allowed TO make bond
for appearance at trial rather than lie
in the county Jail.
Bowden and Roberts are charged
with the Vurder of Lewis Pottee,
Young Tulsa carpenter. in a road
house June IL They were given
preliminary hearing last week and

1t is probable that either Judge
Lynn or Judge Mcneil Will take up
the petition in the near future.

FRISCO RAILROAD
RETARD|NG TULSA
Poor Freight Service Cripples
Important Building Con-
struction in City.
MANAGEMENT IS Indifferent
Cars of Crushed Rock and
Other Material Lie in West
Tulsa Five Days.

That wretched service on the part
Of the Frisco railroad in delivering
materials is crippling building activi-
ties in Tulsa is the charge of local
contractors, some OF whom are con-
templating an actual cessation of
work until long promised shipments
arrive.
For some time II has been an ac-
knowledged rule among the builders
to route everything on some other
road than the Frisco, but II is i'm
possible to avoid some shipments
over this line. Contractors claim
that they can obtain faster service
by roundabout routes on other roads
than by shipping direct on the Frisco.
Rock Shortage.
Particularly in the case of crushed
stone the situation is becoming acute
A great deal of the crushed stone,
which is almost indispensable for
concrete work, comes to Tulsa from
a point about nine miles out on the
Frisco. The Hughes Stone company.
which operates the quarry at that
point, has recently established great

capacity
Relying on this source, most of the
contractors on the large buildings
now under way here have rushed
their activities to the point where
they must have crushed rock for the
concrete framework. At the clmactic
time the stone company is only able
to ship "A very small percentage of
It's capacity, thus starving the hungry
mouths of the concrete mixers in
Tulsa.
For some time It has been the
practice to substitute gravel for
crushed rock in the manufacture of
concrete but this process, If contin-
ued, will give Tulsa a group of weak
ly constructed buildings. Orders were
given yesterday by f. f. Shallenber-
ger, superintendent of The World
building, to cease all concrete work
unless crushed rock Is used, and 1t
is thot that other contractors will do
likewise.

His Memory Came Back

From the Sunday Magazine.
 The following is an instance of an ele- plants good manners and of the tenacity with which an idea once received by him adheres in his memory.
 When visiting the London Zoo, an Eng ishman who had seen service in India got permission for his children to ride on one of the elephants. After the ride he wished to give the beast bun and to make him say please" using in this connection the phrase ''Salaam>quro' making a salaam).
 The animal regarded the man gravely for sometime, eagerly eyeing the bun in his hand. At last memory came to the pachyderms aid, and up went his trunk, and he made most correct salaam.
 The beasts keeper was much aston ished. asking what the performance meant The Britisher explained that it was a point of good manners for an ele- phant to raise his trunk up to his fore- head if anyone was going to feed him, and that frequently elephants would ask in this polite manner for something when they encountered anyone who seemed likely to offer them food.
 The keeper assured the visitor that he had never seen the elephant do this before, and that he had been in charge of the beast since its arrival from India long time For 17 years this animal had always taken the food without this mark of good manners.
