mated that about half dozen Ameri

Consul Shaw was asked for more
detailed report Of the most recent In
cident in the oil fields. 1t was not
known whether bandits had been
bought off through payment Of ran,
som or driven off by the approach OF
federal forces.
Official information on the Bielask1

it was said. created no suspicion con-
corning the abduction.
