Tells of Talk With Fall ■ Uns Angelos, Oct. 22.*—Testimony V Was started in the United Staten dis trict court here today in the govern ment suit to cancel the lease and contracts of naval oil reserve prop erties to the Pan American Petroleum and Transport company, which E. U. Doheny, controlling shareholder, xalues at $100,000,000 and in the al leged conspiracy for granting which tlie government charges Doheny paid $100,000 to Albert B. Fall, secretary of the interior at that time. Commander II. A. Stuart. U. S. N., formerly officer in charge of the naval fuel oil reserves at Washing ton, was the first witness called by Owen J. Roberts, government prose tutor. Roberts said that Commander Stuart was placed on the witness stand to prove that a disagreement existed in the Navy department con cerning these leasee; that the navy officer had not been in accord with the policy and was subsequently re moved from office. The taking of testimony was preceded by offering of documentary evidence, including the withdrawal order of President Taft by which the Elk Hills oil lands were withdrawn frqm public entry; the executive or der by President Harding in 1921 di recting that administration of the naval oil reserves be transferred to the Department of the Interior from the Navy department and other documents bearing on the case. In bringing out testimony to prove there was a disagreement among naval officials in the granting of the proposed leases, Roberts asked Stuart to relate his dealings with Fall prior to the granting of the leases to tlie Pan-American interests. "Aftit was decided to make the lease, Admiral Griffin and I went to Secretary Fall and told him we bad heard the United Midway was to be given the lease on part of No. 1,” Smart's testimony began. “We objected to' this and said it was rot necessary to drill wells. Fall said he had already taken it up with the president, and had met with his approval. Fall said he would get proof of the approval, but did not until later. We left and went to the navy building and were then sum moned back and showed the approval of the president. Shortly afterward the leases were divide!.'' SENTRY FOUND DEAD AT POST Washington.

Coolidge Hopes for a Nebraska Victory Growing Indications Show an Increase in Favor for Republican Presidential Can didate. By WILL M. MAl’PIN. Hebron, Neb., Oct. 22.—It may be that as one comes in from western Nebraska towards the Missouri river he meets with a different sort of people. It may be that 10 days or two weeks of mellow sunshine and perfect weather have combined to put people in a belter frame of mind. Or it may be that efficient organization w beginning to show its effects. But whatever the reason, indications are multiplying that Coolidge and Dawes will sweep Nebraska on election day. The comical squabble between self constituted La Follette leaders, the growing knowledge that the La Fol lette candidacy is but the self ag grandizement of the man, and the in creasoing desire to refrain from rush ing Into political dangers, uncharted and unknown, have all combined to foster the Coolidge sentiment and lessen the sentiment in favor of the Wisconsin man. To this may be add ed the efficient work now being prose cuted by the "get-nut the vote" cluba organized in practically every com munity of the state. The one hope of the I.a Follette managers has been the indifference of the average voter. If 45 per cent of the voters remain away from the polls. La Follette would have a chance. With every 1 per cent of In crease over the vote of two year* ago. the chances of La Follette will diminish. A 75 or 80 per cent vote In Nebraska on November 4 will mean that Coolidge will carry the state by an overwhelming majority, and Me Mulien elected governor, together with the entire republican state ticket. The only hope Judge Thomas has to de feat Senator Norris Is to hold the entire democratic vote, and that ho cannot do. The Norris majority will he measured by the number of demo crats who forsake their own party candidate to vote for him. It would not he surprising that If we have a 75 or St) per cent vote in Nebraska, La Fobette will be third in the race. It grows more positive with each passing day that Governor Bryan is a millstone about the neck of the party in this state. However strong he may have been as a candidate for governor, It is agreed by even the most enthusiastic democrats that he presents and example of vaunting am bition o'erleuping Itself as a candidate for vice president and a possible In cumbent of the White House. It is not at all uncommon for a democrat to admit this, and to further express the opinion that W. J. Bryan is In a sad predicament when tie attempts to explain Ills caustic denunciation of Davis during the convention. In a frantic effort to advance the cause of his brother. r end imju'mib ai ■ tv ■■in these days than ever before, but they are growing more numerous. Now and then one sees a few La Foliette buttons in the crowds gaheered about the purebred sire special, but Coolldge hussons are much In evidence. Davis buttons to date have been as scarce as lien's teeth. The gravest danger fronting Ne braska now is the possibility that the proposed constitutional amendment will carry, because It is strongly sup ported, but for the reason that com paratively few realize what It means. The tendency of the average voter Is to either vote "yes" or not at all. If the amendment carries it will be by virtue of votes not cast. The amendment proposes not only to abolish the party circle, hut to abolish party designation after the name of practically every candidate on the ticket. If it prevails the voters will lie kept in ignorance of the principles and policies of the candidates, thus belli gcompclled to vote even mor< blindly than now under ttie primary law. It is my judgment that republican success |n Nebraska Is secured. That assurance will lie made doubly sure by a considerably increased vote on November 4. Those who count Ne braska in the La Foliette or doubtful column should take a swing around the circle. They may have been Justl fled In that opinion 30 days ago, or even 15 days ago. They are not Justi fied In that opinion now. The only hope flic democratic managers have Is to trade with t>i Foliette men on the governorship, and that is Just what they are planning to do. Kven that hope ts vain In view of the in terest being aroused by the campaign to make this the year of Nebraska's big vote. Leyton Shot: Man Is Held “You Broke Up My Home,” Assailant Shouts, Firing Twice at Former Commander. Not Seriously Wounded Grand Rapids. Mich.. Oct. 22.—Col. John G.

The Polish legation Issued n denial that Poland Is seeking a loan In tho United j States V f ress Twice in the history of the United States the election of a president lias been decided by congress. Thomas Jefferson was so selected over Aaron Burr at the time of his first term. John Quincy Adams was so selected over Andrew Jackson. In both these instances, however, ttiere was not the divided political complexion that now exists In both the house of representatives and in the senate. The present close division on parly lines and the fact that several of the states, including Nebraska, have evenly divided congressional representa tion, means that the selection of a president would he a long drawn out, bitterly contested struggle. It would tie a struggle that would probably last until the very end of the congressional session, March 3, midnight, 1923. The contemplation of such a struggle with all the partisan bitterness that would inevitably he a part of it should cause every voter to make sure that his ballot counts In the election. With the uncertainty attendant upon such a situation—with the possibility that In the house, no selection could be made because of a deadlock and that in the senate Governor Bryan might, through a coalition of democrats and the La Follette bloc, be selected vice president and by default In the house, become president, should cause every voter to make doubly sure. Kvery indication points to a complete defeat for John W. Davis in the north ern, eastern and western states. He will have the "solid south," however, and therefore will receive the second highest vote In the electoral college. This will he true notwithstanding the fact that La Follette may run second in the popular vote. In Nebraska, Davis, from all Indications, will run third. Therefore In this state the choice Is between Coolldge and La Follette.- Indications at this time point to a victory for Coolidge, but every Coolidge vote must be cast in order to make this outcome certain. Keep in mind the fact that In the house the Nebraska delegation is equally divided. Therefore if the choice of the president should be thrown into congress Nebraska would have no vote. Votes in such a situation are cast by states and with an evenly divided delegation it is not likely that a republican congressman would vote for a democrat, nor that a demo cratic congressman would vote for a republican. Surely this would not happen until every available maneuver had been made, every possible delay brought about. The uncertainty, the doubt, the endless wrangles and the charges and counter charges of such a struggle would Involve all business. A gen eral stagnation is a probability. Remember, if Nebraska does not register its choice for Coolidge in the election, then In the balloting in the house our state may be without a vote. The chances Involved in such a failure sre too great. Too much for Ne braska hangs upon a clear-cut choice in the election. We have gone through too much uncertainty, too much doubt to want a prolonged struggle at Washington. Let 11s keep always In mind that we arc now coming out of a long night of depression, that we are at the dawn of a new prosperity. I-et ue make sure of that prosperity by voting for Coolidge. Philadelphia Banker Denies Fund Collectioni Stotesbury Declares Tie Did Not Head Committee to Solicit Bankers for G. O. P. Expenses.

Ohio and Pennsylvania republicans, to a continuance of his assault on the La Kollette independent candi dacy, characterizing It as "an atttuk on our constitution, and existing form of government.” But near the end of his speech he turned to the demorVatic opposition, declaring: "I know that I am speaking to a great many patriotic, honest, liberty loving democrats, but there is no room for anyone between the lines in this fight for and against the present form of this government and our constitution."
