"Siamese' Baby
Will Survive
by United Press Leased Wire

CHICAGO, Feb. S.-Little Meta
Keller, the child whom physicians
revealed had been severed from its
twin by an operation, had "favor-
able' chances of living, medical
authorities here announced today.
The Siamese twins were born Feb.
l to Mrs. Frank Keller in a farm
near Marseilles, Illinois. DR.. Paul
E. Clark, who attended the birth,
said they were joined together in
the fower part of the abdomen so
that the same blood stream ran
through both bodies.
One child was normal, but the
other showed no sign of life except
the blood circulation. AS the cir
culation came from the heart of the
former baby it was decided that
an immediate operation was the
only hope for the normal child. The
twins were rushed to a hospital in
Ottowa and the connecting link of
flesh severed.

MISSING WITNESS
in OIL SCANDAL
STILL AT LARGE
By United Press Leased Wire

WASHINGTON, Feb. 8.-Waynn
O'Ncil, son of James f. O'Neil, mis-
sing oil witness, has not been located
by federal subpoena servers in q
three day search, it developed today
az the senate Teapot Dome hearing.
The son acted as go-between in the
return to the Prairie Oil and Gas
comptny Of 100000 in bonds which
the father had received out of the
1927 Continental oil deal, now under
committee investigation.
The elder o Neil, according to pre-
vious testimony had become consci-
cnce stricken, and believing he had
only short time to live, wanted to
make restitution.
Evidence already gathered by the
committee indicated that $233 600
Of the Continental s $3,000,000 pro-
fits went from Harry +. Sinclair to
former Secretary of Interior Fall
after Fall had leased Sinclair the
Teapot Dome naval oil reserve.
President Clark H. Kountz of the
frairie company was on the stand
today. He told of meeting the elder
O'Neil in Canada in 1925, at which
time O'Neil said his physician gave
him only a few months to live and
he wanted to return the bonds to
the Prairie company before he died
O'Neil senior gave him an order
on his son and Kountz went with w
S. Fitzpatrick, another Prairie off
cal, to Garden City, L. l., and re-
ceived the bonds, he said.

By HERBERT LITTLE
OCaited Press Staff CorreSpOndent

WASHINGTON, Feb. 8. - John
ID. Rockefeller, Jr., persuaded Col.
Robert w. Stewart of the Standard
Oil company of Indiana to return
from Cuba to appear before the
senate Teapot Dome committee and
is now "sorry' that Stewart did
not answer all the questions of the
committee.
These facts were developed today
when Senator Walsh of Montana
made public a series of letters and
telcgrams he had exchanged with
Rockefeller.
The correspondence disclosed that
Rockefeller, who owns most of the
Indiana company, of which Stewart
is chairman of the board, directed
Stewart to tell all he knew about the
mysterious deal of oil men in 1921
by which n SO 100000 fund was Sc
crcted in the Continental Trading
Company of Canada.
The correspondence also revealed
that Stewart told his side of the
story-thc same he told on the wit
ness stand-to Rockefeller several
years ago, when political suspicion
was first cast on the deal.
