MAIL
SERVICE FROM
EASTPR0MISED
Wells ickey Manager
Gets Letter From Work
Telling of Plans.

Immediate attention to complaints
Falls from the east is promised in d
letter to r. J. Stanman, manager of
the Wells-Dickey company here. from
Postmaster General Hubert Work.
Second Postmaster General Hender-,
son, who is in charge Of railway mail
service and transportation. has been
asked by the postmaster general to
give immediate and personal attention
to the condition of the mail service af-
fecting Great Falls and Mr.. Stallman
stated Tuesday that it is reasonable to
hope for early improvements.
Complaint was lodged with the post
master general concerning the delay
of eastern mail at Havre. For several
months, mail leaving the Twin Cities
simultaneously for Spokane and Great
Falls has reached both cities at the
same time, although the haul to Great
Falls is approximately 500 miles short
er. Virtually all of the delay is caus-
ed by lack of connections at Havre,
mail laying over there virtually II
hours, as q general rule.
The Great Northern's west bound
fast mail train, No. u, at one time
carried Great Falls mail to Havre, but
a change in the schedule that caused
the fast mail TO arrive there after the
departure Of train 235 for Great Falls
brought about an order for the carry
ing of mail for this city on west bound
train No. 3. Ordinarily, this train
would arrive at Havre in time to
transfer its mail to No. 235, but al
most invariably it is too late to make
the connection.
The delay of train No. 3 has come to
be an institution so permanently estab-
lished that its arrival at Havre before
train 235 starts for Great Falls is the
exception instead of the rule, with the
result hat mail for this city usually
lies over there until the next train,
arriving here at 7:15 p. M, while it
would have reached Great Falls at
$50 a. m. had No. 3 connected with
No. 80. The y hours delay causes
eastern mail to reach here after bust
ness hours, and for ordinary business
purposes is not available until the next
day.
Mr.. Stallman a short time ago
brought up the subject Of the delayed
mail for discussion at the Commercial
club, and personally communicated with
the postmaster general with an idea
to bringing about improvement in the
service. In his letter to Mr.. Stallman.
Postmaster General Works indicated
that he intends to visit Great Falls
next summer as one stop on a tour of
the country. which he will make in
behalf of the mail service. The north
west is a territory which the postmas-
ter general has especially in mind in
making the tour, he stated.

OIL PROPERTY
AT $l,5OO,OOO
Plaintiff in Mortified Suit
Testifies Firms Property
Worth That Amount.

Property and holdings OF the North
field Oil company, which drilled the
Genou well SO miles north Of Great
Falls, are worth a million and a half
dollars, John G. Noren, plaintiff in q
suit to oust L. f. McCue and Fred II.
Sturm as trustees, said OF the witness
stand Tuesday, the opening day Of the
trial. District Judge IL. II. Ewing is
hearing the case without a jury.
Would Dust Trustees
Noren was on the witness stand
throughout the day. His direct exam
inaton was intended to verify allega-
tons made in the complaint filed on
December ). He charges that Sturm
took charge Of field work and McCue
Of the company's finances. Negligence
and mismanagement are charged. The
allegations are declared false in an
answer filed a week ago by the de-
PENDANTS.
Under cross examination by w. III.
Hoover, Noren said the Mortified
company opened offices in the Stanton
bank building in April or May, 1922,
they being connected with his own law
offices. He said company money was
received and checked out in the regular
amer, he having written some Of the
checks and in general taking an active
part in the management of the com
pany's affairs until October %. when
he alleges he was deprived Of further
participation in the management.
Moved Company Offices
Noren said the first he knew Of the
company giving up the offices in the
Stanton building was when the bank
management began to show the rooms
to prospective tenants. Cross exam
nation will be resumed today.
O'Leary & Doyle appear as counsel
for the plaintiff. Sam Stephenson
and w. II. Hoover of Cooper, Stephen
son & Hoover are appearing for the
