against her, will be surrendered

Warrants for Ormiston's arrest

MARK CLOSE Of
OIL BR|BE TRIAL
Fall-Doheny Lawyer and
Prosecutor Vitriolic in
Personal Attacks
On Each Other
NEW CASE COMING

WASHINGTON, Dec. IA (AP)-
Six hours of vitriolic argument
took the Fall-Doheny case today to
the Threshold of the jury room.
Tomorrow, under present plans,
the jury will retire, probably about
2 o'clock, to deliberate it's verdict
convicting or acquitting Albert b
Fall, former secretary of the inter-
ior, and Edward L. Doheny, lessee
of the Elk Hills, Calf, naval oil
reserve, on trial for conspiracy to
defraud the government.
The crashing finale of acrimony
and left-handed boquets today be-
tween Owen ]. Roberts, govern
ment prosecutor, and Frank j. Ho-
gan, chief defense attorney, cleo
trified the thronged courtroom as
few anti-climaxes of dramatic eyi-
dence have done.
~ All Lied, gYrey Aver e@ 80
The argument ranged from whis-
pered earnestness directly Sinto the
faces OF the twelve young jurors
to high pressure oratoricaf, aero
batics. =
Practically every one@called to
the witness stand in the four weeks
trial was either initiated in the An
anias club, or put down as a most
forgetful fellow.
Mr. Roberts said Mr.. Hogan did
not call the most important wit
ness, and Mr.. Hogan called Mr.
Roberts "a Philadelphia lawyer"
Roberts ended his fiye-hour plea
for conviction shortly before noon
with the direct charge that. in No
vember, 1921. albert B.. Fall knew
that this 100000 loan (from Do
heny) was dirty business"
Hogan began his argument with
regret that the law prohibited his
even suggesting" as an answer to
character 'wrecking" by Roberts
the remedy of early days of the
pioneer west
Then Hogan launched into a min
ute analysis of the Pearl Harbor
oil storage lease and Elk Hills ne
gotiations interpollating summa-
tion Of the evidence as he saw it.
Fires Direct Question
DO you believe Mr.. Doheny is
a crook" he dramatically asked
the jury.
Did you ever hear of a briber
taking note?"
Would two men who could
make a cats-paw out of the sec
retary of the navy and a fool out
OF an old sea fighter put their
necks in such a trap"
Touching on the patriotic motive
challenged yesterday by Roberts as
bunk" he said:
Gentlemen the artist who ad-
dressed you yesterday knows what
bunk is-he got away with ali he
could-but he did not convince you
gentlemen that this venerable old
gentleman (pointing to Doheny) is
a trafficker in the noble impulse of
love OF country"
AS the Fall-Doheny case moved
nearer the jury room, the District
of Columbia Supreme Court, in
which 1t is being tried. was asked
today by counsel for Harry F. Sin
clair to Quash the indictment
charging him and Fall with con
spiracy in the leasing to Sinclair
interests of the Teapot Dome, Wy

DRINK WATER WHEN
KIDNEYS HURT YOU.
Take Glass of Salts if Your
Back Aches or Bladder
Troubles You.

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney re-
gton It may mean you have been
eating foods which create acids, says
a well-known authority. An excess
of such acids .overworks the kid
neys in their effort to filter it from
the blood and they become sort of
paralyzed and loggy. When Your
kidneys get sluggish and clog you
must relieve them, like you relieve
your bowels, removing all the body's
urinous waste, else you have back
ache, sick headache. dizzy spells;
your stomach sours, tongue is coated
and when the weather is bad you
have rheumatic twinges.
Either consult q good, reliable
physician at once or get from your
pharmacist about four ounces of Jad
Salts; take tablespoonful IN a glass
Of water before breakfast for few
days and your kidneys may then act
fine This famous salts is made
from the acid OF grapes and lemon
juice combined with lithia, and has
been used for years to help clean and
stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to
neutralize acids in the system, so
they no longer irritate, thus often
relieving bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, can not
injure and makes a delightful, eff
ferescent Whitewater drink. . Drink
lots Of soft water.
