ROBBERS RAID
OIL MANS HOME
Furniture, Papers and
Interior Furnishings
Taken by Thieves
FAMILY WAS ALL AWAY
Act Was Committed During
the Last Five Weeks While
Occupants Vacationed

Thieves sometime during the last
five weeks entered the home of j. X.
Livingstone, 1901 South Frisco. presi-
dent OF the Livingstone oil COM
pany, and with deliberation ran
sacked the house from celler to at
tic, escaping with more than 100000
worth of furniture and rugs. En-
trance was gained through the back
door with a pass key. The loss was
only partially covered by insurance.
About five weeks ago the family
left for Battio Crock Michigan TO
spend the summer. when Mr.. Liv-
ingstone entered the house Tuesday
night he found everything In state
OF disorder.
Papers were lying everywhere on
the carpetless floor. The house
looked as If a whirlwind had played
with it for awhile" Mr.. Livingstone
said yesterday. Luxurious tapestries
and brocades were torn from the win
dows and walls and carted away.
Drawers had been pulled from all
the tables and desks and their con-
tents scattered pell nell. All of the
furniture of any value was missing. A
large phonograph and several dell
cateiy carved chairs were taken
Several mantel clocks and pieces OF
rare and valuable bric-a-brac were
also missing. A large and cumber-
some but very valuable lamp shade
was taken, aud the police declared
that the robbery was perpetrated by
several mon who were well acquain-
ted with the value of the house fur
nishings.
All the closets in the house were
entered and their contents scattered
over the house. Every article Of
silverware I'm the house was taken
About $1,000 worth of liberty bonds
which were in an old desk were also
missing.
Trunks and boxes which had been
stored in the attic and hadn't been
opened for years were ripped open
and plundered
Mr.. Livingstone's house Is some
distance from any othSr place, and
police are of the opinion that the
robbers used a truck to cart away
the goods. They probably drove TO
the back door, which faces the river.
and took their own sweet time"
John A. Gustafson, chief OF police,
said yesterday Due to the fact of
the great deliberation of the robbers
and the numerous things carried off
coupled with the fact of the various
places In the house which were
plundered, and which no ordinary
burglar would ever touch, feel con-
fident that the robbery was the re-
suit of inside men and not the or
dlnary house prowler." the chief
said.
IT cannot give a complete list OF
the things stolen" Mr.. Livingstone
said yesterday but l know that the
loss will be about $4,000"
Livingstone said yesterday that he
had hired n nightwatchman before
he left but the robbers were too
clever for him. Livingstone's
brother, Julius slept at the house
several nights but the robbers waited
until he was out OF town for few
days, Mr. Livingstone said.
No trace of any of the stolen goods
CT nf the men who committed rob-
berry had been found late last night
Mr.. Livingstone said that he sus-
pected no one.

GARBAGE MESS

City Health Superintendent
Says New Ordinance Will
Be Presented Soon

The garbage situation In Tulsa Is
n mess. Tho city health depa rtment
admits IT, This situation has existed
for the past several days In on acute
form---before that In modified
form. Since the death of James
Miller, who held the contract for
hauling the city's garbage TO feed
his hogs. garbage conditions have
been chaotic. Miller was killed
several days ago when the truck
(which he was driving was hit by
train at a crossing,
Since Miller's death, members OF
him family have been attending to
houling garbage. Four wagons and
| one truck have been used. These
vehicles, however, are entirely in
ladequate to haul away the refuse
from Tulsa's kitchens--in hotels,
restaurants and private homes.
We need at least twice as many
wagons and trucks" Or. l.. c. Pres
son, city superintendent OF health,
said yesterday. The health depart
ment knows that the city Is not
taken care OF properly; we realize
that garbage haulers have confined
most of their activities to hotels,
restaurants, and prosperous homes.
wheer much garbage can be obtained
without much effort.
The result has been that the out
lying districts were neglected. Gar
bage there Is too scattered II requires
too much labor to gather II con-
sidering the fact that plentiful
supply can be found in larger quail
tiles in the downtown district"
Doctor Presson said an ordinance
properly governing the garbage
situation is 10 be prepared shortly,
and that new contract would be
let, probably following the passage
Of this ordinance. The new con-
tract, he said, will be much more
binding and when It's terms arc full
filled there will be less cause for
complaint. 1t IL possible. he said,
that unless immediate relief Is OBJ
taincd, the city Will hire extra
wagons TO care for the garbage until

MARTENS CASE HEARD
Government Attempts TO Prove Un'
diplomatic Acts for Deportation.

WASHINGTON, July 21.-Evi-
dence was offered by the govern
ment at today's hearing in the de-
portation proceedings against Lud-
wig C. A. X. Martens. soviet "ambas-
sador" to the United States, to prove
that throughout his activity in this
country Martens has not held him
self to diplomatic usage which he
has claimed title to exercise.
One contention OF Martens coun-
Gil throughout the deportation pro-
ceedings has been that the entire
proceedings were irregular on ac-
count of the immunity from legal
processes offered by the so-called
diplomatic status of the soviet agent.
The hearing was adjourned until
July 2S.

Tracing Polynesian History.

Determined to hnd out II at all possible
the origin Of the Poiyncsisn race, held to be
one of the two outstanding problems in eth
noiogy OF the present age. plans have been
perfected by the Bishop Museum OF Homo
lulu and Yale University for an expedition to
the South Seas.
While many hypotheses have been sd-
vanccd by ethnologists concerning the point
from which the Polynesans began the mi
nrations which eventually scattered them
broadcast throughout the South Seas as far
as the Hawaiian Islands, the fnal stopping
place, yet Prof Herbert r. Gregory Gays the
problem has never been solved as a historical
fact. The Hswaiisns Samosns, Tsthitians,
Tongans and Maoris are distinct race be-
longing to the stone Age but with evidence OF
Arysn origin.
The question to be determined Is where
these groups came from, and how and why
they spread themselves over the Pacific, with
canoes their only means OF transportation.
Tho origin and migration OF the American In
dian Is also puzzle. Bthnologists botsnists
and biologists are tracing the american tribes
back through British Columbia and Alaska to
Siberia and the regions beyond The prob
lem of the Polyresian race is much more DIFF
houIt because II involves the collection OF
data widely scattered through hundreds OF
Islands.
