Dennis Flynn May be Employed to Take Hold of Case His Stand-In With the President rpd Other Officials Is Noticeable. Law ton, O. T., April 19. An effort Ih en foot In the new country to employ Hon. Donnlu Klyim to take hold of the ciattur of opening tho iSO.OOO-acre In dian pasture reserve of Comaucliu oounty during the coming session of congrusw. It In expected that the city councils, county commissioners and. eommerclal clubs will enter into nome! sort of a contract to this end Several reasons nro given why Mr. Klnu would be the best person to han dle tho matter. Ono is that he is in thorough harmony with the President and thi entire administration at Wash ington, lie is almost as familiar with ITesldcnt Roosevelt us ho is with any member of congress and has extensive acquaintance among the cabinet of ficers. Kspeelnlly can he get In close touch with the secretary, of the Inter ior. No other man in Oklahoma , It is wild, can get nearer to Major James F. Rnnrllett. tho United 'States Indian aout at Anudarko, nnd it Is absolutely essential that Major Rnndlctt'8 per mission be obtained before any hopes of tho opening of tho lands can bo ob tained. The first claims turned Into Ih i interior department by Major Handlctt amounting to Munethlns like $2,000 for some reason were not lndorsca by the M-cretary. Several efforts wOro mail i to collect them, but nil failed. A i:'. months afterward.) M-. F'ynn came down Into tho Indian country on a visit to Sam Strauss. While hero ho made tho acquaintance of Major Rnndlctt. The major related liU grievance and Mr. Flynn made mental noto of (he circumstance.-). During tho following ses sion of congress, whoa tho appropria tion measure came up. Mr. Flynn suc ceeded in getting an appropriation Inched on that was sulllclently large to rover tha amount of Major Ilnnd-j lett's Claim. Since that tlmo the two mon have bean very clou? friends and , a recommendation n-ndo by Flynn re-j eelves the careful consideration of the major. If Flynn can provall upon Major Randlett to give his consent to the opening of the pasture land, tho two " . 6 i "'""'"".

This does not mean that tho probing of tho oil situ ation In Kansas is to stop, ror there, will be twelve agencies of tho bureau of corporations left In tho Hold to car ry on the work wlilch may last several weoks. Tho main object of .Mr. Garfield's visit was to get a personal view or tho situation In a general way and this ac complished, he is now ready for other Holds. From Kansas City Mr. Garflold will go to California. Ho Is not go!u to Indian Territory. Commissioner Garfield got two shocks jestorday. Ono of them was the , reduction or G cents n barrel In tho I price of oil. The other wns when ho counted 219 tank cars stand ing on tho sldotracks or the Standard hen; when tho Independent producers all over tho Holds have beni trying to tt tank cam ror weeks and the railroads have said that they could no suvply tho cars. Tho thing that puzzles Mr. GarflcW is how tho St on da ml con get moro cars than It .needs, while producers cannot got a car when the car is necessary. Tho Standard admits that it mado promises It never fulfilled, but Justi fies its action on tho ground that It never expected to sco such an oil Held as has been developed in Kansas and tho torritorlca. Tho admission is mado that tho Standard encouraged tho de velopment or Uio Held, but tho ploa follows that tho development got be yond the capacity of tho Standard to take care of. It Is admitted that all grades of Kansas oil posE:aseB value, but In order to got tho best It was noc- 1 essary for tho Standard to restrict IU I purchases to oil nbovo tho gravity or I thirty degrees. , The evidence taken lioro covers a wldo range. letters have boon produc- u:l bhowlng tho promises or tho Stand ard wiicn tho development or the fleltf b?gan.

Mr. Hardy says the Missouri fight n gainst Standard oil is vastly I moro Important than Uio ono in Kan sas, slnco Missouri Is fighting against exorbitant rates and tho complaint or Kaums Is that It does not got suffi cient rovenuo from Its oil output.
