G. A. Colgan, Deputy Com
missioner of Markets, Is
Dismissed and Editors
Man Put i'm His Place
Said IL Am for Smith
Move Designed to Terrorize
Others on City Pay Roll
Who Want Ex-Governor

The refusal of George A. Colgsn,
wealthy Brooklyn merchant and power
in the 1st Assembly District, to re-
nounce his interest in the nomination
of former Governor Alfred E. Smith
was said last night to have been re-
sponsible for his removal yesterday as
Deputy Commissioner of Markets.
Mr. Colgan, according to his friends,
short time before his removal, had
been asked by one of Mayor Hylan's
messengers to campaign for William
Randolph Hearst up state, as other city
ply-which is said to have caused the
break-was:
II am for Al Smith, first, last, and
all the time, and shall do all in my
power to nominate him."
1t was said that when the defiance of
Mr.. Colgan was brought to the atten-
tion of the Hearst-Hyfan political man.
ayers conference was held at which
1t was decided to cut off his head that
it might serve as warning to ali other
| anti-Hearst men in the city employ.
Warning TO Other Leaders
Mr.. Colgan, it is understood was
picked for the "horrible example" be-
cause John H. McCooey, the Brooklyn
Democratic boss, who has been for Mr..
Hearst for anything ever since the ed
itor-politician began to attack Mr. Nc
Cooey editorially and in cartoons in
| January, 1919, would not object.
1t was also decided to make an ex-
ample of Brooklynite, because it is
an open secret that many of Mr.. Nc
Cooey's leaders are ready to revolt
| openly against their chiefs espousal of
the Hearst cause, which began three
years ago, following a drive to wean
Mr.. McCooey from his $4,000 a year
| job in the Surrogates' Court, in Brook
| lyn.
Two of the important factors in the
Brooklyn Democratic organization
have come out against Mr.. Hearst for
Governor or any other high place. The
| hrst was James Kane, Commissioner
OF Elections and State Committeeman
from the Sd Assembly District, who
declared he was for any one but
Hearst, adding:
II think the Democratic party has
TOO much sense to nominate Mr.
Hearst"
Griffin for Smith
The next signs of revolt also came
from an oficeholder, Timothy E. Crit
FIN. leader of the 18th Assembly Dis
trict, and regarded as having almost
as much influence in the Brooklyn or
ganization as Mr.. McCooey himself
Mr.. Griffin, who is Clerk of the Kings
County Court, said he was for Smith,
and that the people in his district
were for him also.
Tammany leaders have been in
structed by Charles F. Murphy not to
| discuss their choice for Governor with
any one, as he does not want any Of
them to lose their jobs if it can be
| helped.
And in this connection one of the
Tammany leaders, who is an office
holder like practically all his colleagues,

Roosevelt Orders Lejeune
To Send Squad Led by
Officer 'sof Discretion''
to Clear Teapot Dome
Plea of Intruders
For Delay Refused
Officials Decide They AL
ready Have Had Ample
Time to @sThink Tt Over

WASHINGTON, July 20. -- Acting
Secretary Roosevelt to-day ordered
Major General Lejeune, commandant
OF the Marine Corps, to send one Of
ficer and three or four enlisted ma
rines into the Teapot Dome Naval Oil
Reserve, Wyoming, at place about
forty miles from Casper, to eject oil
squatters who have begun drilling for
oil.
The Secretary said he issued his or
der on the basis of information for
warded to the Navy Department by the
Interior Department some months ago
of the presence of the squatters on
the naval reserve and after warning
had been given the squatters to vacate.
The head of the group of squatters
Secretary Roosevelt said, as late as to-
day had notified the Navy Department
that he would "like to think it over"
before abandoning his drilling. Mr..
Roosevelt added that after consulta-
tion with officers of the Interior De-
partment he had decided that the time
had passed for thinking it over" and
so issued his order to General Le-
jeune.
Asked as to the number of marines
to be sent into the Teapot Dome re-
serve, Mr.. Roosevelt said he had in
formed General Lejeune that he
thought one officer "of discretion" and
handful of men would be sufficient
to eject the squatters. The officer
and his men, it was said at the Navy
Department, probably would leave the
marine barracks here for the reserve
tomorrow or Monday.
DENVER, July 2a.-H. H. Keoughan
president Of the Mutual oil Com,
pany, announced late to-day that he
had been advised from Washington
that United States marines had been
ordered by the Navy Department to
eject representatives, of the company
from the southeast quarter of Section
20, IN the Teapot Dome Naval Oil Re-
serve in Wyoming, where they are
drilling a we'll
".The Mutual Oil Company is oper-
ating under contract with individuals s
who have clear title to this quarter
section" Mr.. Keoughan declared "The
title dates back to 1890 and was
granted by the United States govern
ment under the placer laws.
IF United States marines appear on
the property and order US to leave,
however, we will leave, but under pro-
test" he said.
THE Mutual Company's title to this
quarter section is exactly the same as
other titles held by Harry Sinclair and
quit-claimed to the government when
Sinclair obtained the Teapot Dome
lease" Mr.. Keoughan added.
Messages from Casper said the con-
troversy was the result of dispute
between the Sinclair Oil interests and
the Mutual Oil Company.
