SAYS DEALS IN
OIL TALKED AT
G. @. P. MEETING
Air Surcharged with Stories
at Chicago in 1920, Says
Ohio Witness
WOOD REFUSED OFFER
Says General Declared He
Would Not Consider Any
Shady Deals

Washington, Mar. 19.-The atmos.
phere at the Chicago Republican con.
ventiOn in 1920 was surcharged with
stories Of 'oil DEALS" the oil COM
mittee was told today by Tiffin Gill
more, deputy secretary of state of
Ohio. who was at the Chicago con-
vention as Wood supporter.
One story was, Gilmore said, tn at
oil operators had proposed to throw
delegate support to Major-General
Wood if they were permitted to
name the Secretary of the Interior
He declared he knew nothing about
it first hand" but that it was COM
mon talk that "a deal had been con-
summated between oil operators and
the possible nominee.
Discussed Land
In a conversation he had after the
convention with Carmi Thompson, an
Ohio Republican leader who was the
nominee of his party for Governor
in 1922, Gilmore said there was some
discussion of land claim Thomps on
was interested in.
What land did you refer to when
you asked Carmi Thompson if he
had the land?" asked Senator Bur-
sum, Republican, New Mexico.
The whole air was SO surcharged
/ cannot tell. My impression was
that it was some land adjacent to
Bakersfield, California. l had never
heard of Teapot Dome at that time -
Did you gather the impression
that Mr.. Hamon (Jake Hamon the
Republican national committeeman
from Oklahoma) had anything to do
with it."
Il don't know what oil companies
were in it; / do think, however, that
young man named Moulter told ne
HamOn was mixed up in it,
You really know nothing of those
matters except gossip on the street" "

Wood Refused?
Asked by Senator Walsh, Democrat,
Montana, if he knew what reply
General Wood had made, Gilmore
said: e
Il was told he walked up and down
at his hotel and said it was a shady
deal; that he would have nothing to
do with it and that they would have
to defeat him."
The witness was excused and the
committee called James D. Darden, a
man of many adventures whose name
had been interviewer with disclosures
in both the Daugherty and Teapot
Dome inquiries. Process sewers had
reported failure to locate him fora
month but he denied that he had
tried to avoid service of the commit
tees subpoena. He said he was
away from home good deal but
