OIL PRObERS
HEAR MYSTERY
DEAL DETAILS
Stewart and Sinclair Said
Sign; SubordinateS
0beyed Them.
EX-SENATOR TESTIFIES
Indiana Standard Chairman
to Be Called Thursday
in Dome Inquiry.
By United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-The
Senate Teapot Dome committee
gathered today more strange details
of the financial operations Of oil
men who diverted 100000 to the
mysterious Continental Trading
Company Of Canada for a purpose
yet undetermined.
A. o. Carlson, treasurer Of the
Sinclair Crude Oil Purchasing Com
pany, admitted he signed a contract
to buy $150-a-b barrel oil from the
Continental at $1.75 a barrel be-
cause his superiors, Harry Sinclair
and Robert w. Stewart, had signed
although he himself knew moth
ing of the contract.
E. G.. Seubert, president Of the
Standard Oil Company Of Indiana,
revealed that Stewart had negotia-
ted the Continental contract on his
own authority, and the board ac-
cepted the contract on Stewart's
recommendation alone.
Former Senator Charles Thomas
of Colorado told how the contract
was negotiated in the New York
hotel apartment of H. M. Blackmer,
missing oil witness. when Sinclair.
Stewart. James E. O'Neil, also miss
ing, and others were present.
~ Stewart at Hearing
Stewart, recently returned from
Cuba, sat at the hearing and lis
tened to the evidence. He will be
asked to tell his story Thursday.
Carlson said he never had heard
Of the Continental before the oil
contract was submitted to him by
Sinclair and Stewart for signature.
Senator Walsh Of Montana elic-
tied from Carlson that after the
Continental had made 100000
out of the contract the Sinclair
Crude Oil Purchasing Company and
the Prairie Oil and Gas Company
on May 26, 1923, bought the con-
tract.
1t was brought out that the con-
tract, then worth $3,000,000 or more,
was bought for 100000 by the Sin
clair and Prairie companies.
"The contract was made by H. l..
Phillips, now president of the Sin
clair company" Carlson said. &c!
didn't know anything about 1t"
Buying a $3,000,000 contract for
100000 is sort Of changing double
eagles for dollars, is it not?"
"Well, it's good deal"
Gets Tentative Contract
Schubert said he first heard about
Stewart going into the Continental
deal in the fall of 1921, the time the
contract was made.
Before that we heard there was
to be a meeting in New York about
the sale of this oil by A. E. Hum
phreyS."
Stewart came back from the New
York meeting, Seubert said, with a
tentative" contract with the Con-
tinental. This contract was sub
mitted to the board. which conSid-
cred the oil a good buy at $1.75, he
said. &"
What explanation was made to
you for buying this oil at $l.75 per
barrel from company that the
same day bought the oil for $1.50
per barrel?" Walsh asked.
"Mr. Stewart said that was the
best price we could get crude for"

ORDER POLICE
OSE|ZE CARS
W|TH'27 TAGS
Autos to Be Impounded in
Garages Until Owners
Buy New Plates.
FIVE MACHINES TAKEN
Determined Drive Will Be
Opened Thursday by
State and City.

Indianapolis police will begin on
Thursday to drive to the nearest
garage all automobiles with 1927
license plates found on the streets.
Owners can get their cars after they
buy license plates and pay the
storage, Police Chief Claude M. Wor-
ley a1Hounced.
Five machines were irnpounded
by State police officers today, but,
swamped by the after-zero hour
rush of auto owners to get plates,
State police were unable to under
take their scheduled drive to arrest
all motorists driving with old Ii
Censes.
All his men available are aiding
in handing out tags at the State
house and four local branches where
licenses may be obtained, State
Chief Robert Hunes said.
More than 500 were in line most
of the day at the Statehouse and
large crowds were reported at the
branches, the Fountain Square State
Bank, Forty-Second Street State
Bank, Belmont State Bank and East
Side State Bank.
Asks Police Aid
In addition to asking Indianapo-
lis police to aid in keeping the old
licenses off the streets. beginning
Thursday, Humes was forced to ask
Chief Worley for men to aid in
handing out the tags at the
branches.
The five whose cars were i'm
pounded today were picked up by
State police on their way to work.
They will get their cars back as soon
as they get new licenses and pay
storage charges, Humes said.
AS soon as the rush is over. State
officers will aid local police in
cruising Indiana streets for 1927
licenses and those having them will
be arrested and liable to fines in
addition to being required to get new
tags and pay the garage bill, Humes
said.
UItimatum Stands
Meanwhile, the ultimatum OF Sec
retary of State Frederick E. Schorte-
meier that last midnight was the
deadline for 1927 plates stood. In
previous years the secretary has an
nounced Feb. as the deadline and
then extended it to Feb. Is.
However, "Have 1928 plates or
keep your car off the Streets" was
Schortemeier's answer to pleas for
extension of time today.
The fact that approximately 300,-
900 persons did not have 1928 plates
when the thirty-da period Of grace
exnired led Schortemeier to tighten
up.
Law Text Given
The law under which the police
can impound cars with old license
plates, passed in 1925, reads;
ANY representative of the Sec
retary of State, or any State po-
lice officer, or any officer or men,
Der of any municipal police depart
ment who may discover any motor
vehicle or motor bicycle without
the proper registration and license
plates attached, shall take such
motor vehicle or motor bicycle into
his custody. and may cause such
motor vehicle or motor bicycle to be
taken to and stored in a suitable
place until the legal owner thereof
can be found or the proper reg
istration and license plates have
been procured"
The rush of license buyers at the
Statehouse continued today.

STOCK LIST TURNS
UPWARD AT CLOSE
Short Covering Comes Into
Market to Offset Some
Early Losses.
BY GEORGE r. HUGHES.


Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, February 4-Through-
out the greater part of today's short
session liquidation continued to have
its effect in the stock market. Margin
calls sent out after the close of bust
ness last night brought about fair
amount Of distress selling. But in the
last half hour short covering came in
in sufficient volume to more than offset
the early losses in many directions.
United States Steel, American Can
and numerous other issues felt the ef-
feet of this covering and sold above
yesterdays closing prices.
The high prices of the day were
reached just before the end.
Steel Stocks Prominent.
The steel stocks played a prominent
part in the week end operations What
the Street viewed with concern was the
continued pressure against United
States, which dropped to new low for
the year before support was encoun-
tered. Colorado Fuel was down more
than point at intervals. and Crucible
and American Steel Foundry were af-
fected by the selling. Vanadium again
proved the exception, and under the
same character of buying noticeable
during the past few days was bid up
several points
General Motors resisted the offerings
better than Steel common. but others
of this group were lower. The January
operating figures of General Motors
due shortly. are expected to disclose
net income Of slightly less than $4,000
600. as against sl0,700000 in the month
Of 1927.
Atlantic Refining Down.
The reassuring remarks concerning
the future dividend policy by officials
of Atlantic Refining were not the fac
tor they were yesterday. At 98l2 the
price was down IL points, and there
appeared to be plenty Of offerings,
Houston Oil broke some 2 points. while
General Asphalt and the lower-priced
issues, like Sinclair, were discounting
the prospects of unfavorable earnings
statements for 1927. General Railway
Signal was carried to a new low for
the year. Allied Chemical. Montgomery
Ward and Radio Corporation were
prominent in the selling.
