SHALLOW OIL NEAR GALLUP

Gallup, N. M. Dec. 2.-F A Mark ley, a well known geologist, predicts that a big oil field will be developed shortly in Mckinley county.
 'This field Is sixty-five miles north east of Gallup and tho nearest rail way station is Thoraau. GU the Santa Fe,"' said Markley. -"One well has been drilled to 325 feet and started off with a production of 25 barrels, which settled down to 10 barrels. The drillers struck an eighteen foot sand at 325 feet.
 \The Carter Oil, Union Oil of Cali fornia and the Dutch Shell compan- ies have blocked out enormous acre age in the vicinity of Gallup The field was opened eight years ago, but the drillers failed to case off water and the wells were abandoned. Geol- ogists predict that a big pay sand will be found here in this country around 2,OOO feet.

APACHE CHIEF GRIPS SCHOOL AUDIENCE
 IN TALK
Famous Indian Character Recounrs Deeds of Personal Prowess In An Address To Pupils Of
 Miami School; Scene Dra-
 matic 6 Striking

Big Chief Talkali addressed the student body of the Miami High school Tuesday morning. The scene was novel one. The big auditor ium at the High School was filled with the children of the white man. The old chief addressed them in his own language and the pupils listen ed attentively. The story he told was tragic. A century of life was reviewed by the old chief and with his eloquence of voice and gesture he made the students understand the things he saw. No speaker ever re- which the old chief received from the High School pupils. At times the chieftain spoke of the battles in which he had taken part. He told the story of how he was sent after an Apache outlaw and how he brought back his head as evidence that he had got his man. The student body gave him hearty applause when he finished. They were all glad of a chance to hear the old chief and wished that they could have under stood all that he said.
 The students are making up a sum of money to give to the Talkali fund. The talk will help the committee in charge to swell the sum of the school childrens' gift to the fund that pro- vides for the old chief and his fam fly of two, his wife and little grand child.
 As for Big Chief Talkali himself it was one of the proudest days of his life. For he probably never address ed a larger audience or more ap- preciative one.
 Mesdames Kelley and Sullivan, who have taken a deep interest in the family of the Big Chief" and MT Lewis a member of the school facul- ty were instrumental in getting t1e tig chief to address the High S3Eool pEIils Ford Knowles thanked tns chIr: in the name of the stIdent oody after which an interesting time was given the "old fellow''-Silver Belt.

HEAVY SNOWFALL IN HIGHER
 ATTITUDES
General Precipitation In The Stare Flagstaff Has Zero Temperature And 30 Inch Snow on 27th Orange Harvest Makes
 Progress Despite
 Muddy Roads

Phoenix, AriZ., Dec 3-The weekly report of stock and range conditions by the Weather Bureau indicates that under the influence of higher temper atures the heavy snows that fell in the northern counties on the 27th is rapidly disappearing. Streams are running freely and tanks and reser- voirs are well filled. The rapid melt ing is regarded favorably, as a con siderable amount of stock, horses and cattle, were showed in on the mountains and were without food ex- cept where browse was available for the latter. Monday morning 10 inches of snow covered the ground at Flagstaff and Pinedale-on the night of the 27th 30 inches was re ported at Flagstaff-12 inches at Williams, thirteen at Prescott; sev- en at Grand Canyon, three inches at Fort Apache and two at Seligman At Springerville on the 27th there was an S-inch snow.
 Despite bad weather and muddy roads the orange. harvest has made favorable progress. About sixty carloads of oranges and grape fruit have been shipped to market and 1t is estimated that probably seventy five per cent of the navels have been picked. The market is steady and satisfactory to growers and promises to so continue. Cotton suffered lit tie damage from the recent rains but picking was delayed somewhat ow ing to wet soil. Muddy roads have interfered with deliveries and as q consequence ginning has slowed up.
 The following is the precipitation for the week ending December 1.

A.

CERTAIN BRE AK WITH MEXICO
 IMMINENT
Fall Resolution FaVors Withdrawal of Recognition of Carranza Govern ment; Lansing Opposes, Con- ference With President Mon-
 day; Situation Acute.

Washington, Dec. 4.-Steps to ob- tain personal interview with presi- dent Wilson before framing senate policy in the strained relations with Mexico were decided on today by the foreign relations committee.
 The decision was made after Sec jretary Lansing had appeared before the committee and, it was said by members, had disclosed that because Of the presidents iuaess, he had not been consulted by the state depart ment in it's handling of the recent developments which have brought relations between the two govern ments to a serious stage.
 At the White House tonight, the presidents physician, Dr. Grayson, said he saw no reason why the com mittee's representatives, if they ur- gently desired it, could not see the presidnt tomorrow. It was indicat- ed that the two members selected, Senators Fall, republican, New Mex ico, and Hitchcock, democrat of Nebraska would endeavor to do so
 In deciding to take it's problem di- rect to the president. the committee divided along party lines, six Re publicans voting for the proposal and five Democrats opposing it. The action came at the end of day of discussion of Senator Falls resolu- tion which would ask the president to withdraw diplomatic recognition of the Carranza government.
 The decision to take a more deci- sive attitude against invasion of American rights in the southern re- public, MT Lansing was auoted as saying was reached some months ago and now it was about to develop whether the Carranza regime would accept or disregard it. He. was said to have added that the admins tration was prepared to go to what ever length necessary to enforce that May Ask Commission
 A reply now is awaited from Car ranza to the latest American note re- questing in sharp terms that Jenkins be released, and advices reaching here today indicated that a commis. sion might be asked for by the Mex ican president to settle the dispute. It was said MT. Lansing did not in dicate what course this government might take should the reply prove unsatisfactory, but was very em. phatic in his declaration that the United States was ready to shoulder any consequences which might result from its demands for protection of American rights.
 Virtually all of Ambassador Fetch. CTS statement to the committee re. lated to the Jenkins case, but Secre- tary Lansing was drawn into a de- tailed discussion of the whole gen. eral subject of relations with Mexi- co and told the inside story of the American governments attitude dur. iGs recent years.
