City of Mexico, July 15.-(By mail.)
There Is an odd paradox about the
Mexican oil situation which today is
being especially well illustrated
This paradox exists because there
are two phases to the problem" of
Mexican oil, first the angle of polit-
ical pickering which is carried on in
Mexico City between emissaries Of
the American oil companies and the
Mexican government; second, the
business of producing and transport
ing the oil in the rich Tampico dis
trict.
The first phase today offers the
spectacle of deadlock between the
oil ENJOYS in Mexico City and the
government officials. After a series
of conferences in which demands
and "ultmatums" were said to have
figured prominently the settlement
of the oil controversy in its legal and
political aspects, is just as remote
as it was under the Carranza regime.
But in contrast to this situation,
which would seem to indicate that
petroleum affairs were in a very bad
way, the men who actually produce
the oil in the Tampico fields have
just established a record for petro-
leum shipments of more than eleven
million barrels a month.
So whatever the merits Of the
American oil mems contentious, the
fact remains that today the produc-
ing and exporting end of the Mexican
oil industry is in a more flourishing
condition than at any previous pc
riod.
During May, the last month for
which official figures are available,
twenty companies shipped 11,200,123
barrels of crude petroleum and its
products from the ports of Tampico,
Tuxpam and Port Lobos. This is
the greatest amount of petroleum

The skeleton was not complete. and showed the effects of being inferred for considerable period. as many of the bones had fal len away. It is thought probable that someone encountered the skele ton while digging in the vicinity and did not bother about reporting the natter Several pieces of overalls were still clinging to the skeleton. and close examination led the men 10 believe that it was the bones O. an old man. who had probably died and was buried there about % or more years ago. as the teeth were wcrn very badly and some Of them missing.
 The men gathered the bones ani placed them in sack which was ho.sted into a nearby tree. Upon ar irving in Tombstone Murry reported the matter to the sheriffs office and a deputy was sent to investigate
 There is no doubt that the skele- ton has been buried for many years as even the old timers of this section do nO recall the buria! ot anyone at the old Stone House
