NEW YORK, March 3.-Harry F.
Sinclair, chief owner of the Mammoth
Oil Company, whose lease of the Tea
pot Dome oil reservation from the
government is being investigated,
today issued a statement to stock
holders of the Sinclair Consolidated
Oil Corporation, explaining the rela-
tionship and responsibility of other
companies with which he is connected
with regard to the government prof.
ect
The Sinclair Consolidated Oil Cor
poration, Of which Mr.. Sinclair is
chairman, owns slightly more than
25 per cent of the stock of the MANI
moth company, he said. with a pres
ent market value OF approximately
$5,750,000 This is the equivalent, he
explained. Of s125 share on the
total number of Sinclair Consolidated
Oil Corporation common shares out
standing. The Consolidated Corpora
tion, he. added. has not loaned nor
obligated itself to loan any money to
the Mammoth company.
The Sinclair Refining Company, Mr.
Sinclair continued. has almost COM
pleted a storage installation for the
Navy at Portsmouth, N. H., represent
ing a total cost Of less than $1,000. 900
which cost is to be liquidated by pro-
ceeds from royalty oil accruing to the
government through Mammoth OIL

Pipe line extensions. undertaken to
transport oil from the government
lease eastward, he said, would also
be available to serve new fields which
may be developed not only in Wyo.

stocf In teh Sinclair Pipe Line Company
is owned by the Consolidated Company
and half by the Standard Oil Company

The Sinclair Crude Oil Purchasing
Company, also jointly owned by the
Consolidated and the Indiana Standard

Bonus Bill Reports Factor in

Are Lower. =,
BY GEORGE II. HUGHES.

NEW YORK, March 3.-Weakxess

not only on the exchange bu> in deal
ings over the counter. The reaction
lower prices as 1t was in the with
drawal OF bids. Buyers who were
anxious to accumulate securities on
Saturday appeared suddenly to have
cancelled their orders. This condition
was generally explained by reports
from Washington that the bonus bill
would be passed over the expected
veto of the President.
Liberty Loans Weak.
All United States government loans
suffered but the selling was heaviest
In the SECOND and fourth AZ liberty
trials were likewise lower. although
not especially active. The sustaining
influence was the continued ease in
the money market. There were q few
special cases such as Northern Pacific
that roads general mortgages. which
were in supply in large volume well
below last weeks closing prices.
Here, of course, the doubt about the
OUTLOOK TOT the northwestern EOdOS
was a large factor. Baltimore and
Ohio, Pittsburgh, Lake Erie and West

half a point.
Among the speculative bonds the
feature was the sharp break in the
Virginia Carolina issues following
the formal announcement of a receiv-
ership. The action Of the bonds last
weeI, had forecast but had not fully
discounted the news. The first mort
gage Is dropped about two and a
half points The 71as with warrants

one bond which stood out as a point

stamped bonds.

In the foreign list French bonds
held well considering the renewed

SOUTHERN MILLS FEARED.
Bay State Textile Men Note Grow
ing Competition.

BOSTON, March 3.-Advantages en-
joyed by the south in competition
with Massachusetts in the manufac-
ture of cotton goods are set forth in
a report filed with the governor and
executive council by the state COM
missioner of labor and industries,
Brig. Gen. E. Leroy Sweetser. 80
The report says the competition
from southern mills is becoming
more severe and the increase in con-
ton goods manufactured in the south
has been at a much more rapid rate
than in Massachusetts,. especially in
coarse yarns and the medium grades
Of goods Some of the handicaps for
Massachusetts mills mentioned are
higher living costs, higher, wages.
greater power costs, longer hauls of
raw materials and restrictive labor
legislation
The report finds that some Of the
advantages obtained in southern
states today may not be permanent
and expresses the belief that Mas
sachusetts may still retain its su-
premacy In the manufacture Of the
finer grades OF goods.
