News of the World By Associated Press ESTABLISHED 1870 SINCLAIR JURY EXCUSED TODAY; LAWYERS CLASH, Defene Would Block Adnmission of Testimony Regarding Danger of Drainage GOVERNMENT BATTLES THROUGH GROLOGISTS Progress of Case Tnterrupted Con- | tinually by Disputes Between At- | toneys Over Property of Evidence | Given by Heald, Among Those Let. | ters Represented as Having Ad- vised Fall, Washington, Oct. 21 (P—An at- | tempt by the government to intro- | duce parts of the testimony Harry | F. Sinclalr gave the senate ofl In-| stigating committes brought the Teapot Dome oil conspiracy trial to | an abrupt halt today, so far as the Jury was concerned. | After a forenoon session devoted | to testimony as to whether the Wy- oming naval il reserve was in dan- ger of drainage hefore Albert B. Fall, as secretary of the interlor, leased it to Sinclair, the offering of | the Sinclair testimony brought on | argument over its admlssmility' which attorneys said would last all | day and Justice Siddons excused the | jury until Monday morning. Case Often Interrupted The progress of the case was in- terrupted continually today by dis- | putes between attorneys over the vroperty of evidence, particularly that given by K. C. Heald, a geolo- gist, who was represented as having told Fall thers was no imminent | danger of dralnage. Heald's report |1 s introduced, not as evidence of facts, Owen J. Roberts, special oil counsel, said, but to show that in- formation was before TFall at the time. The defense attacked Heald's report, and developed that he cht‘ to Teapot Dome to check up another report and remained there only an | hour. Attempts to exclude the re- nort failed on insistence of Roberts that it was not offcred as evidence of facts concerning drainage. At the outset of the trial today the defense placed before the jury correspondence between Fall | g and the late Scnator Robert M. La- | “ollette of Wisconsin concerning the wval reserves. Fall's letter was dated April 1922, three da after the lease was signed, and it gave the first infor- nation that Teapot Dome had pass- «d from government possession. He | spoke of what he thught was the | langer of drainage and added that “it 13 not the purpose to sell but simply to preserve oil above the ground if it cannot be preserved un- der the ground.” Fall's Statement ald also that military pur- re involved in the lease and that details could not be made public without the authority of the president, but he enclosed a memor- | andum giving the high spots in the | lease signed by Sinclair. 1t was after receipt of this letter than Senator LaFollette set in mo- n machinery of the senate, the operation of which resulted in the ! sensational Investigation of 1923-24. As the corespondence was read and as Smith continued his testi- mony, all appeared calmer than he e hi hi ih |a th ie T M attorneys and spectators by suddenly rising from his seat and addressing the court in an effort to have ad- mitted testimony he sald was vital to his defecnse. He was closely by spectators ently were waiting some other dra- | matic move on his part. Smith told the court that he sent a geologist, K. C. Heald, to Teapot Dome at the suggestion of Fall to investigate reported danger of drain- “Heald told Secretary Fall In my | presence,” said Dr. Smith, “that | thers was no fmminent danger of | drainage in Teapot Dome. I do not remember that I did more at that time than to vouch for Heald. “Three days later, I went to Fall's office with a written transeript of | Heald's oral statement, which I gave the secretary. After that I was not consulted by Fall about| "Teapot Dome at any time.” Quizzed by Court Questioned by the court, Dr. Smith said Heald was sent to Tea- pot Dome because of a report made in September, 1921, by Carl H. Wag- german, &, government geologist, that there was danger of drainage in Teapot Dome. Heald, who now is staff geologist of the Gulf Ol company, identified his report, which recommended against leasing the entire Teapot Dome reserve, but said there was | some danger of drainage in the | northern part, adjacent to the Sale | Creck field, Martin W. Littleton of New York, of counsel for Sinclair, took up the cross examination for the first time | in the trial. He developed that | Waggerman was the geologist who | “laid out” Teapot Dome before its hdrawal in 1915 by President Wilson, "Were you asked to do any par- | ticular thing when you were aent | out to Teapot Dome?” Littleton in- | quived. ke Ve n al v m a m al vi ! p!
