RUNNERROBBED
OF $3.50 IN
OWN BANK

Police today were searching for
two men believed to have picked the
pocket of a messenger for the Conn
merciaI National Bank, Fourteenth
and G Streets Northwest, of $3.50
in the doorway Of the bank building.
This was the second daring bank
messenger robbery here in four days.
Enoch G. johnson, for fourteen
years trusted messenger and clerk
of the bank, was returning from
the cash room OF the Treasury
Depa rtment with $1S,750. This
money was in two packages OF
SIS 900 each, which he carried in an
inside pocket and one OF $3.50
in a trousers pocket.
johnson told the police and bank
authorities after the loss was as
covered. that as he entered the bank
he was jOstIed by two men, one Of
whom was entering behind him and
the other apparently leaving the
banking rooms. Both seemed In q
great hurry.
The only description that johnson
could give the police was that he
thought that one Of them was about
so years old with . ''bristly" mus
tache.
johnson continued into the bank
to the teIIer's cage where he found
the two packages OF $4,000 but the
other containing $4,000 in $1,000
bills, seven 500 bills and $50 were
missing.
Had Not Made Stop
johnson told the police that he
had not stopped on the way from
the Treasury to the bank, a block
away. Since the holdup and rob-
berry of the two messengers OF
the Federal American Bank on
Tuesday, all bank messengers have
been warned not to stop at any
place except where they have APP
polntments, the police said.
During his fourteen years with
the Commercial National Bank
johnson has carried millions of
dollars, bank officials stated. There
Ia a slight chance, they said, that
he may have lost the package of
bills from his pocket, but the police
are skeptIcal of this.

| AS SINCLAIR
LEASE To BE
PR0BED.

The Teapot Dome Oil investigat-
ing committee OF Congress will
probably investigate Harry F. Sin
clair's lease in the rich Salt Greek,
Wyo., public reserve, it was indi-
Gated today.
Under lease signed in Decem
Der. 1923. six months after Albert
B. Fall received $685., 900 in Liberty
bonds from Sinclair, the Sinclair
company is obtaining Government
oil at the rate OF 100000 barrels
q year. Al percentage Of this oil 10
called royalty oil, and held for the
Government in compensation for Its
grants to the oil companies, under
the public leasing act OF 1920.
The royalty oil for q time went
to the Shipping Board, which used
it in vessels they operated and the
surplus was sold to small indie
pendent companies to insure q
steadily-regulated flow Of oil into
the general market. Fail changed
all this, and decided to sell the
oil to a private corporation. The
Sinclair Crude Oil Purchasing
Company got the contract, and now
buys the royalty oil they produce.
hccOrus ~ I. Is1.TA.,.t,e,.t ~
the Salt Creek field last year was
n 900 900 barrels, Of which 1900 900
harreIs was royalty. oil, which Sim
clair bought for $500, 900.
The total production in 1925 was
1900 900 barrels. of which 2,4O0,-
600 was royalty oil. Sinclair bought
the later from the Government Tor
81. AT 900.
The Interior Department makes
no attempt to estimate the profits
which Sinclair has derived from the
transactions. which are now run
ming in their fifth year.
Whether the Government will at.
tempt to void this lease and take
from Sinclair the profits which have
been received by him under it is
said not to be determined.

CHICAGO POLICE.
WAR ON DRY
RAIDERS

CHICAGO, March 31.-Conflict he-
tween Federal and local authorities
over the enforcement of prohibition
today threatened fresh complies,
tions in Chicago's volcanic politl-
cal situation.
The present crisis grew out 81
the shooting Thursday night Of VIII
liam Beatty, municipal court baliff
in a raid conducted by q group Of
imported special Government dry
raiders.
When local police. unaware Of the
imported squads activities, rushed
to the scene in the belief the place
was being held up. they were told
to get out and stay out--th1s Is
none of your business
A serious brush between police
and dry agents was NARROWLY
lyaverted.
Police Commissioner Michael
Hughes. after a 24-hour investiga-
ton trying to find out Just Wnas
rights the police have in such 2
matter, was still wrathfuI today.
''What want to KNOW said
Commissioner Hughes, lis whether
or not a bunch Of gun.tot1ng rough
necks from the East Side OF New
York can come into Chicago, shoot
up an unarmed man and then tell
the police department to go to hell.
The special raiding squad was
headed by a man named George r..
Golding, who is said to have boasted
that he is a hard-boiled ex-copper
from Gotham.
Preparations were under way TO-
day to obtain warrants charging
assault with intent to murder against
the Government agents. COTnmis-
siOner Hughes announced he would
serve the warrants as soon AZ 1s.
sued, regardless Of any attempt on
the part of Federal men to resist
the service"
Beatty's wife, who was with her
husband when he was shot, started
the action to have the Federal men
arrested on a charge of attempted
murder. The raiders succeeded yes
terday in having Beatty indicted for
resisting a Federal officer, but they
failed to substantiate their charge
that he fired two shots at the dry
agents. Two Government men have
Beatty under guard at hospital.
