A fight for title to 4,400 acres of Fer­ ry Lake In Caddo pariah, southwest Louisiana, and said to be an oil Held valued at approximately $5,000,000, haa been begun before Commlaaloner Den­ nett of the general land office. The claimant la John B.Ktng of Texarkana. Texas, who made entry over one year ago under the placer mining a ct He claims that the area of the lake was never turned over by the government to the State of Louisiana, and aa the attorney general of that Stats did not put in an appearance yesterday It Is believed that the State is content to let ths general government deal with the proposition before It In any manner It may deem advisable. Former Representative John J. Lenfi of Columbus, Ohio; J. A Telller of Little Rock, Ark., and J. D. Korner, also of the capital of Ohio, made up the legal array which presented Mr. King’s side of ths case. At the close of the argument Commissioner Den­ nett took the matter under advisement. He did not announce when a decision will be rendered in the matter. For several months past It has been believed that the State officials of Lou­ isiana were going to put up a vigorous fight for the lake, which also has a considerable area In the State of Tex­ as. Several year* ago, while prospect­ ing over the general oil field in the section where the lake la located, Mr. King discovered that while the Stand­ ard OH Company had located its wells on all stdes of the property, no attempt had been made to locate on the lake. He then went to work, and made a close examination of the records bear- lng on the question of title to the land on which the lake lies. This waa for­ merly government land before the back water from the Red River overflowed the section and left the lake. He aacer talned, so it was pointed out in the ar­ gument of the attorneys before Com­ missioner Dennett yesterday that the lake was never turned over by the general government to the State of Louisiana, and he lost no time in mak­ ing an entry on the 4,400 acres in ques­ tion, which is believed to be the rich­ est In the section in point of possible oil fields. With his entry he then made his plans to bring the matter to the atten­ tion of the commissioner of the gen­ eral land office, so as to perfect the ti­ tle before he begins operations for lo­ cating oil wells. He talked at length yesterday of the question and pointed out that as the lake la only about two or three feet deep It will be a compara­ tively easy matter to locate oil wells in ail parts of the area covered by the 4.400 acres In question. Mr. King Is positive from the Investigations he has made that the area Is of immense value and hopes sb soon as he gets title to begin operations. The section In which the lake Is lo­ cated in both Texas and Louisiana Is looked upon by oil experts everywhere as a particularly rich oil country, and this fact has been singularly brought out, it is declared, by reason of the fact that the Standard OH Company has come Into the section and bought up all the land bordering on the lake.— Washington Star.
