The special will carry at least $50 peo-

to be seen at the well and the engine
will be fired up Sunday morning to OPP
crate the bailer for the benefit Of the
crowd.
The trip will include stop at the
Fowler well, which is now down to
about 100 feet of the depth of the
Kelvin well. Conrad people say that the
drillers are expecting to reach produc
ton within the next week and attention
is now turned to Fowler as the loca-
ton of the next probable strike in the
north country. The stop at Fowler
will give the passengers 80 minutes for
an inspection of the well.
Lunches on Train
Lunches will be served on the train
by the Newman News service, but it is
anticipated that many Of the passengers
will take picnic baskets along. It was
at first planned to add diner to the
train, but this was found impossible
because no equipment was available.
Additional reservations may be made
until this evening, but it is not certain
that tickets can be sold Saturday. The
excursion was arranged following a
meeting last Monday called by the oil
committee of the Commercial club, at
which number of speakers urged that
the trip be made. The canvass for res
ervations was made by special com
mittee composed by III. NJ. Yaw, w. A.

DEFECT in Law
GAINS RELEASE
FOR R0SENFELD
Court Holds Possession Of Furs
Not Evidence of Place
Beaver Was Killed.

/ Because the state did not prove that
I. Rosenfeld, former south side NOR
chant, killed beaver in this county,
Judge J. B. Leslie Thursday ordered
an annulment of the judgment Of con-
viction pronounced upon the defendant
/ last Monday BY Justice of the Peace
| c. A. Wilson. Rosenfeld was found
guilty Of unlawfully killing beaver and
was fined $500, which he failed to pay:
! His counsel Immediately instituted
habeas corpus proceedings and the or
der issued by Judge Leslie sustained
to jail when he refused to pay the fine
and was released Thursday pursuant to
the courts ruling.
Place Not Proved
I'm order to justify the conviction"
Judge Leslie said. lit devolyed upon
the state to- prove, not only the I'M,
lawful killing, but that the same was
done in Cascade county The purport
of the testimony furnished by the state
to prove the guilt of Rosenfeld was
the fact that he was in possession
i. Of beaver skins within the county. It
is made prima facie evidence Of un-
lawful killing for a person. not author
lied under the statute, to have beaver
skins in his possession. While it af
fords prima facie evidence of unlawful
killing. it furnishes, by itself, no proof
of where the killing transpired
There was no proof against the de-
fendant in the trial of the charge
against him in the justice court as to
where the beaver may have been killed.
It was essential in order to justify a
conviction, for the state to show that
the killing occurred within the county.
else the justice had no jurisdiction of
the crime charged
Judge Leslie's decision brings to
light. in the. opinion of the county at
torney's office, defect in the statute
covering the killing, hunting and trap
ping of beaver. In order to establish
the venue of a crime involving beaver,
it would be necessary for the violator
to be caught in the act or that direct
proof be submitted as to the beaver
having been killed, Deputy County At
torney Julius Wuerthner believes. The
state game laws make it a crime to
sell beaver without permit. but it does
not constitute violation when a per-
son purchases them.
Try to Recover Hides
sRosenfeld was arrested following the
finding of box containing SO beaver
hldes,,. which he said he and another
man had purchased. The hides were
packed ready for shipment when they
were seized. Rosenfeld claimed they
had a value. Of $1.SOO. Following his
conviction the state game department
took possession Of the hides and
shipped them to Helena, where they
will be sold, in accordance with the law.
at public auction. As result of Judge
Leslies ruling, O'Leary & Doyle, Ros- |
enfeld's counsel. announced Thursday
that they expected to file suit to regain |
possession of the hides. p. ". Doyle |
of Rosenfeld's counsel stated that an |
attempt to prevent the sale of the furs !
would be made by means of an injunc- |
ton suit. which will be filed in district |
court today fFriday).

Reports on Well Vary
Mr.. Graybin stated that some east.
ern companies are confused by the
| conflicting reports sent out from MoA-
tana. Estimates Of the Kelvin wells
production have ranged from 30 bar
rels to 5000 barrels in kilograms sent
to Denver, he declared, and many con
Germs will be, as a consequence, IN
able to draw definite conclusions until
the well is officially tested
Gordon CampbelPs estimate of the
Kevin well has not changed since the
first day production was reached. He
stated in Great Falls Thursday evening
after returning from Lewistown that
the well. will produce 1000 barrels
the first day on the pump and that the
pump production, at the present depth,
viii settle down to not less than 500
barrels. The oil remains at approxim-
ately 1900 feet in the casing, rise
that would take 1t over the top in
many of the Cat Greek wells.
I'VE thought the oil was going to
flow over the top Of the casing the
first day, and it probably would have
done just that had it not been for the
accumulation of mud in the bottom Of
the hole,'' he stated. 1--WE have tried to
make our estimates conservative and
while the stand Of oil has been from
LOO to 1900 feet the greater portion
of the time, the fact is that it raised
LOO feet within short time after
we tapped the sand.
Mud Stopped Flow
'It was then that we thought it was
coming over the top, but it was stopped
by the mud. We bailed the oil down
and cleaned out the hole, and when
some of the mud was removed it con-
tinued to rise faster than we could bail
it out. 1t raised to 1900 feet, and
there it has remained.
my estimates Of the well have been
made with the knowledge that the bit
has not penetrated farther than one
foot into the solid oil sand. / believe
that the showing made at this depth
justifies both my estimate that it will
yield q minimum Of 500 barrels day
now and that the production will be
much larger if the drill is sent down
deeper. / think the well will produce
1000 barrels the first day on the
pump, and, without further drilling. it
will settle down to not less than 900
barrels. and maybe as much as 700
barrels"
Mr.. Campbell ordered a pump last
Saturday, but it is not expected that
this equipment and storage tanks can
be put in place before the end of
next week. A delay in the shipment of
the pump would postpone a test of the
well even longer.

CIVITAN CLUB
TO PETITION
FOR CHARTER
Membership Favors Specific
Civic Advancement as
Working Program.

Action to apply for charter from
the international Association of Civ
itan clubs was taken Friday noon at
the luncheon of the local Civitan club
recently organized here. Great Falls
will be the sixty second club in the
Civitan field, following Hartford,
Conn, recently chartered.
Expression Of the membership after
hearing the general plan of Interna-
tional Civitan discussed by Field Rep
resentative w. G. Breitenstein was to
foster specific civic advancement in
Great Falls. One of the first move
ments suggested will be fostering Of a
city-county playground in the city, ac-
cording to members of the new organ
ization.
Committees Appointed
Committees on membership, consti-
tuition and bylaws and charter appli-
cation and classification were appoint
ed to function temporarily until cleo
ton of officers. which will take place
at the next Thursday meeting when
the first definite luncheon program
will be arranged.
The charter application committee
reported Thursday evening that ap
pication for the international charter
would probably be made today (Fri-
day. and that members added since
Friday upon recommendation Of the
membership committee would be in
cluded in the charter membership Of
the club, which will be 35 members
Charter Presented In Two Weeks
The potential agreement between the
field representative and the local club
guarantees international affiliation 1t
is expected that the charter will ar
rive in time for a charter presentation
at the Thursday meeting two weeks
hence, which will probably be wom-
ems day meeting.
Invitation to join the round table
OF civic clubs here was accepted, but
members will not be elected until next

clubs monthly feature luncheon today
was also conveyed to the Civitan mem
bership.

The vanguard of the big company
representatives which began an inspec-
ton Of the Sweetgrass arch within q
day or two after the Kevin oil well was
established as commercial producer
is being augmented by new arrivals Of
officials from the larger concerns. The
Elk Basin, the Standard Oil of Califor-
MIA, the Standard Oil Of New Jersey,
the Frantz Corporation, the Mid-Nor-
thern and three or four others have
had men in the field since last week,
and Thursday the Ohio added it's rep
resentatives to the forces on the
ground.
John McFadden, general superin-
tendent of the Ohio's Rocky mountain
district, arrived in Great Falls Thurs
day, accompanied by A. NJ. Sellery, c..
II. Hetzel and Robert Cove, other rep
resentatives Of the company, and will
begin an examination Of the field as
soon as weather conditions permit. o.
A. Graybill, former secretary of the
Frantz corporation, but now with the
Elk Basin, reached Great Falls We'd
nesday, and will visit the Kevin well
within the next few days The Frantz
corporation is now principally owned
by the Elk Basin.
Storm Hats Field Work.
The snow storm which struck the
northern part Of the state Thursday
had the effect of suspending operations
by the several crews of biologists
which have been at work for the last
week and two or three parties came
into Great Falls during the evening to
await better weather. Major G. G.
Howard, Great Falls geologist, who
was in the north country several days
with representatives Of the Standard
Oil Of California. also returned Thurs
day evening.
1T is obvious that none Of the big
company representatives now examin-
ing the field will make any announce
ment of their findings until the field
work is completed, but it can be said
with certainty that they are here with
the intention of acquiring acreage if
the showing is satisfactory. It can
also be said that they accept the Kevin
well as it now stands as proof of the
presence of commercial oil in the field.
One of the great obstacles in the way
of signing up acreage is composed by
the involved titles affecting many
tracts. Many farms are covered by con-
tract sales, taxes are delinquent in a
large number of instances and the stat
