MRS. JAKE LHAMON
STIRS OIL PROBERS
Widow of Oklahoma Oil Man Ap
pears at Hearing, but is *
'Not Questioned
WASHINGTON, April *».—Mr*. Jake
I*. Hannon, widow of tha Oklahoma oil
man and republican politician whoee
name haa been linked with many un
ueual stories about political financing
In 1920 had a fleeting day In coSft to
day before the aenate oil pommltteet
She waa not aaked a tingle queatlon
and waa excuaed after a quarter of
an hour of waiting on the' wltnesa
atand while the aenatora wrangled
and finally completely dlaagreed aa to
who waa reaponalble for her aummona
to Waahlngton.
A visible atlr awept over the com
mittee room, packed with a crowd In
cluding many women, when ahe awept
up to the committee table dressed in a
flowing black dreaa: and carrying In
her hand a alnle calls lily. Another
witness was testifying about geological
formations In the oil reserves, but
he was excused soon after she Ap
peared and the committee clerk called
her to the stand.
Then began one of the bitterest per
sonal rows that has characterised the
long and turbulent sessions of the oil
committee. Senator Spencer, repub
lican, Missouri, objected beforehand
to the admission of her testimony, and
Senator Walsh, democrat, Montana, the
committee prosecutor, replied that he
“bore with due humiliation” the rebuke
of the Missouri senator. Mr. Walsh
added, however, that all responsibility
for. the visit of Mrs. Hamon must rest
on Senator Stanfield, republican, Ore
gon, who In turd retorted that Sena
tor Walsh was not stating the facts.
He had only mentioned her, name,
Senatdr Stanfield said In suggesting
how the committee might run down
some of the sensational stories told it
about Hamon by A1 Jennings and oth
ers.
There was a dead silence and the
committee chairman, finding that no
senator wanted tp ask a question, told
the witness that her furthter presence
would not be required.
Immediately Mrs. Hamon had takeq
her departure, committee members in
dulged In another row over admission
to the record of one of a group of tele
gmms bearing on the oil deal story.
Referring to the recent testimony of
H. W. Ballard, of Los Angeles, In
which ‘he stated that Harry Chandler
and William Randolph Hearst could
give Information “about a conspiracy"
to control the republican national con
vention in 1920, Senator Stanfield an
nounced that he had telegraphed the
substance of Ballard's statement to
Chandler and Hearst and had their
replies.
The replies deny knowledge of the
matter bad have been published.
Senators Walsh and Adams, demo
crat, Colorado, objected to placing In
the record a telegram which Senator
Stanfield asserted showed Ballard had
a police record. They insisted In wit
nesses were to be called to Impeach
Ballard the members of the committee
should have a chance to examine the
witnesses and not accept hearsay evi
dence.
It was finally decided to admit to
records the telegrams sent to Chand
lef and Hearst and their replies, but
*• exclude those referring to Ballard.
