Dolcty and Harry F.; Sin- cfeir.""- .- i-u The Indictments charge conspir acy in ,.:nection with the leasing of the Teapot Dome and Elk Hill naval reserves,, and in this ;respect arc more comprenensive ; i man those quashed recently in District of Columbia supreme court. : A charge of bribery,' which the original indictment attached to Fall,! E. L. Doheny and E. L. Do heny. Jr.. was omitted and E. L. Doheny, Jr., was not reindicted. Atlee Pomerene of government counsel said the indictments were asked for as a precautionary mea sure and that the government would fight through the supreme Court to have the original charges go to trial. For this reason, he said, re-indictment on the bribery accusation was not sought, j There also' has been a question as to whether the statute of limitations has expired on the bribery eharge. The new - Indictment covering the oil leases charges that the con spiracy Included the sale of oil to the government without competl , tire 'bidding, the purchase of stor age ; of facilities, buying of kero sene, lubricantlng . oil and petro leum and the adoption of a credit sale method of purchase by which no cash passed to the United Stat- eS."

An effort was .made by the government's - special oil counsel in the Cheyenne, Wyo., civil pro ceedings for annulment of the Teapot Dome lease to bring out an alleged passage of bonds from Sinclair to Fall, with the now de funct continental trading com pany, Ltd.. of Canada as Inter mediary. The Indictment returned today against Sinclair ; and Fall, however, did not attempt ? to spe-: cify how the alleged $230,500 transaction took place. Other new charges specify exe cutions of the lease 'i of April 7, 1922, to Teapot Dome and the exe cution of a construction contract ed February 8. 1923. The original : indictments were quashed because of the presence of a department of Justice agent In the grand Jury rooms. The court held that Inasmuch ss the case could be turned over to special government counsel by act of con gress, the department should not have been represented in ' the room. ' Virtually the same witnesses who i testified before previous grand Jury in the oil 'cases were called by the jury returning the indictments. Frank J. Ho'gan, counsel for Do heny Issued a statement declaring the "striking thing about the In dictment was the absence of the name of E. iL Doheny Jr. I "By the failure .to re-Indict young Doheny," : he said, "the prosecution: admits the otter lack of any Justification, for the origi nal Indictment against, him."
