I had been ailing for a year with pains in my right side so that I could hardly stand on my feet. When I walked I felt as lif something was falling. I was not able to do any work and had a nurse most of the time. She spoke tome about Lydia E. Pinkham’s Veg- etable Compound, so I gave it a fair trial.

On December 26, McLean in- structed Major to tell Wilton J ambert his attorney that he had asked Palmer to see the oil commit tee. In another message McLean in- structed Major to keep “all my wires in your possession.” On December 26, McLean sent a telegram to E. W. Starling (a secret service man) at the White House asking him to send this telegram to “Wilkins” at Hopkinsville, Ky. “Leave at once for Palm Beach. E. B. Mclean.” Hopkinsvife is Starling’s home town. Later Major wired McLean that “Willis” is im full possession of matters. “The same message said Charles Berhans was leaving Washington for Palm Beach that night and that “the duck” would leave later. “My advice is,” the message ad- ded, “not to acquaint latter party (the duck) with our code system.” Bennett wired McLean on Janu- ary 29 that he had seen “principal” and delivered message; that there would “be no rocking of boat and no resignations” pected “reaction from unwarranted polltical attack.” visor to Attorney General Daugher- ty telegraphed McLean on January 16 that the ofl committee was in- vestigating whether $100,000 in a bank at the time he claimed he gave A. B. Fall checks for that sum. The Rochester message was a night letter and ended with the statement “I though you should be informed.” Rochester was formerly manag- ing editor of the Washington Pos' Several messages in code had re- ference to “apricots” “apples,” “ptaches” and “cherries.” They were signed “the champion” and addressed to W. E. Wiley, a Mc- Lean employee, at Palm Beach. McLean telegraphed to Major on December to tell Palmer that “Francis H. McAdoo, or his father” ‘William G. McAdoo, “has been my personal attorney for seven years.” At the conclusion of the reading of the telegrams, Carl C. Schuyler,| a Denver attorney, was called to the| stand. Schuyler took the inquiry back to the Teapot Dome field, explaining that he had represented the Mid- west Refining company and the Pio- in that field. length the now famous conference | at Kansas City at which Harry F.. Sinclair agreed to pay $1,000,000 to J. Leo Stack, Denver oil operator, and Frederick G. Bonfils, publisher of the Denver (Colo.) Post.

Bonfils has told me that your last and final offer of $100,000 and a one-half interest in the net profits from the operation by you of 120 acres to be selected from your lease. On behalf of Mr. Stack, I decline this offer, “Sinclair said ‘Stack will not get another dollar.” “Colonel Zevely (Sinclair's law- syer) and I then engaged in conver- ation.

The committee made no effort for the time being to identify these Persons. After some discussion, however, it announced {t would ask A.

The first from John Major, one of McLean's confidential agents in Washington to Mr. Me- Lean at Palm Beach said the writer had “arranged with Smithers at the White House to have our end of the Private wire opened at six o'clock.” This message was dated January 31 and on the same date Major again telegraphed McLean saying: “Just finished talking with Pal- mer. He said that he told Lenroot this morning that you were ill. He said that he pointed out that part of your letter that you had gone to Palm Beach for your own health and that of your wife.

Contests in music work were held in the auditorium of the Natrona County High school last night to determine first place in piano, voice and violin. Miss Louise Newell took first in plano, Miss Dora Stanley in voice and Miss Marguerite Metz in violin, Because of the limitation placed upon the number of contest- ants allowed at the academic tour- nament staged in Laramie during High School week under the auspices of the University of Wyo- ming, it is probable that only one person will be sent from Casper to represent the music department. Students from the Glenrock high school came up Tuesday to compete with local typists for practice. Miss Elsie Stewart of Casper took first place in these contests. {This was not for the purpose of determining should go to Laramie, how- ever, as that contest will be held later.
