Archie Roosevelt, son of the

s5istant Secretary of the
Theodore Roosevelt, vice
..aent of the Union Petro-
sum Company Sinclair con-
cern-until yesterday, and &C
cording to his own admissions,
director of innumerable sub
sidiary Sinclair concerns, APP
peared before the Senate COM
mittee investigating the con-
nection of Senator Fall with
the Teapot dome grab and told
an astounding story of pay
ment of mysterious large sums
by his superiors to Fall repre-
sentatives; of hurried flight by
Sinclair and Colonel Zevely,
his private attorney; of hur-
ried and secret conferences
with one G.. F. Wahlberg and
his brother Theodore resulting
in his decision to testify.
He gave the impression of a
badly scared young man who,
after allowing the family name
to be used by INSCRIPTIONS
financiers for confidence-creating
purposes wished to clear his skirts of
all blame in connection with what
promises to be one of the most
putrescent scandals ever barred in
Washington circles.
Archie Roosevelt testifies that
G. d. Wahlburg, private secretary
TO Harry f. Sinclair had told him
that $4,000 had been paid to the
foreman of Falls ranch at Three
Rivers, New Mexico. Wahlburg, on
the stand said he had not made this
statement to Roosevelt but gave
other and more damaging testi-
financial transactions between Fall
and Sinclair.
$4,000 in Liberty bonds and
approximately S1U,UOO IN Sinclair
Consolidated stock had been
turned over TO Zevely, the main GO
between in the negotiations for the
Teapot Dome sold TO Sinclair by
Fall.
Another incident told by VAIL
burg was the sending Of high
priced purc-bred cattle by Sinclair
TO Falls ranch for a sum insult
fcient to pay freight charges.
Sinclair is now in Europe and
Archie Roosevelt secured the steam
ship ticket for Sinclair, was told to|
keep the matter quiet and did keep

AS this country's commercial
relations with other nations i'm
proved, the talk was always OF
when Lenin gets back TO
work"
Now Lenin is dead, of an i'll
mess the exact nature of which
was not at first disclosed.
He lived, however, to see the
state he-dreamed Of and fought
for, take it's place among the
nations of the world; a state
not yet recognized by many
governments, but standing on
Its own feet.
At half past one this after
noon, the physicians who had
attended Lenin in his last i'll
ness, issued a bulletin describ-
ing the Soviet chieftain's death.
His condition had greatly
improved, they said. Suddenly,
on Monday, it took a turn for
the worse.
Lenin died within a few
hours.
Paralysis Of the respiratory
organs was apparently the
cause.
The body will be brought to
Moscow tomorrow and will lie
n state until Saturday.
In death, Lenin is to be made
accessible to all those who fol-
lowed him and who could not
be with him in his illness.
An official statement issued
by the Russian government said
hat the SovietG government will
continue to carry out the will
