President Harding wrote Pall under
late of June 24. Hi;, that unless
James G. Harden of the Mutual Oil
company, got off the teapot he should
be elected.
"I have a call out for an interview
with Mr. Harden." the president's lat
ter said.
Pall replied that Darden's purpose
was to "tie up" the reserve snd that
he should be elected without court
action.
L'pon the conclusion of Secretary
Roosevelt's testimony the committee
closed Its doors to go through another
batch of telegrama.
Utile additional Information was
received from examination of the
meerrages. which were supplied from
:the Washington office of the Western
t'nion. Tomorrow the committee will
take up the report of accountanta who
hare audited brokers' books and will
call several other witnesses in clear
ing the way for the inquiry into the
Leonard Wood. Jr., story about an
attempted oil deal at the Chicago con
vention in 1920.
Tammen called Christian's atten
tion to an article in the Post on the
election of the Mutual company from
Teapot. Christian transmitted the
letter to Pell with a request for ma
terial on which to base an answer and
Kali responded with a history of the
naval reserve, and a discussion of the
legal controversy raised as to titles
upon It.
It was Ihe djty of the navy, the
interior secretary's reply insisted, to
protect the reserves and. he added.
that the marines were the navy's po
lice force for that purpose.
resldent Harding waa personally
acquainted with. -a "certain gentle
man," chiefly concerned in thu Mu
tual Oil company attempt to secure
Dome oil. and took a hand himself
the Pall letter Indicated, In trying to
dissuade his acquaintance from pur
suing the enterprise. This "certain
t-entleman" refused to yield to the
president's representations..
Senator Walsh asked who the "eer
tain gentleman" was but the witness
said he didn't know, senator Bur
sum, republican. New Mexico, asked
if there wss any precedent for the
marine activities and the witness re
plied that none could be found In the
records In the navy department. He
added that there was an opinion
among naval men that a threat to use
the marines In California for a simi
lar purpose had n made some
years before. .
Roosevelt said he had casually men
tioned the sending of marines to Tea
pot to president Hording, who had
approved.
'There was nothing In my mind but
to protect the tuval reserve,'- Rosue-
Y'lt said.

rines to Teapot as an "outrageous use
Daogberty was In Colambus. she
said, when she saw Colonel Dardea a1
"the- shack."
"1' know they had something that
they were considering."
"There was something wrong, some
where," she continued. "They did
drop Mr. Darden."
"What brought this about was that
Darden did not measure up." said Mis
Slinsoo.
' "Measure np to what?" demanded
Senator Aahurst-
They dropped bun," was the an
ewer.
Questioned by Senator Wheeler, an
swered, "yes," when asked if Smith
was a partner "In these various deals
On that she said her chief knowledge
came from Smith. She said she kne
"of a deaf between Daugherty ant!
Darden of which Smith had told ber
She said Smith gave Darden into
and he told her Daugherty gave the
same amount to Darden.
"They bad a deal in an oil proposl
lion out wee(, she said.
Smith told ber. she said, that Col
otel Darden "for years has been try
lag to get through some leases some
way through Washington, prior to this
administration."
"If this lsnt a pipe dream It may
probably make us a lot of money," she
said Smith told her.
"Harry Daugberty and Jesae Smith
put In I2444 apiece," sbe reiterated.
Senator Wheeler went back to tbe
Carpentler-Dempsey fight films.
Miss Stinsoc said the proposition
was thai transportation of the films
was a legal violation and it the films
could be transported without prosecu
tion "they" were to receive $1M0
'Whether that was ever consummat
ed. I do not know."
Certain "picture companies" unnam
ed she said, were to be in negotiation
with Smith, be told her. In reply to
questions sbe said Smith was the go
between for the sttorney general and
Picture companies- A transaction in
Pacific oil stock was then brought up
by Senator Wheeler.. Miss Slinsos
said It was in the fall of 19:i.
Pacific Oil. - and Manhattan Shirt
shares were placed with Smith's bank
era and afterward -taken away, she
said.
Miss Stinson did not know Smith got
the stock. Smith withdrew the stocks
suddenly" from tbe brokers. She de
nied that Smlltt said the stock was
given to him.
from the frght pictures the testi-
mon veered to "a deal" in whlcn
Smith and Daugherty. the witness
said, had each put l:40 with Colonel
J. O. Warden, who. Smith told her.
she said, "had been trying for yean
to get some leases through the gov
ernment.
Th committee had subpoenaeo
'Itorden. but were unable to find him.
The mysterious little green house
on K street.' which the witness saia
he understood was owned by Edward
B. McLean, the Washington puBltan-
er. again figured in the testimony as
'did the "shack" near Columbus,
owned by Daugherty. Smith and
others. "
There were meetings and "deals
in both places. Miss stinson said, "be
cause they could be private."
Then- the witness described a con
versation she said she overheard be
tween Smith and Joe Weber, the
iictor. It related to getting a parole
Jor "a Mr. Solomon." the actors
irother-in-law. The talk, she said.
waa "how to fix It wnn uaugneny.
Before the committee met today
Attorney- General Daugherty issued
unother statement declaring the In res
ummon "could be fully and finally
disposed of In a week or ten days II
only pertinent Inquiries were mane.
The attorney general also wrote to
Chairman Brookhart protesting the
ssuance of committee aubpoenas for
Uaston B- Means and Thomas
Older, on the ground that the)
would receive Immunity under Indict
ments pending against them in New
York. The letter was laid before the com
mittee, but some members were dis

Reveniiis to a "bJiad" accocnt of
Saith's with the Vrgerieider stock
firm. Smith told ber the said, that he
kept it blind "because of his connec
tions with Harry Dasgherty."
"Smith told her.'' sbe said, "that the
expenses of the Smith-Dangherty
apartment in Washington were "con
siderably over tZO.VA."
"They . were Interested in things
Jointly and he thongM b. could pay
his part from the remnneratiou," she
continued.'
"In New York after the Dempsey
fight," Miss Stinsoa said. "Smith in
troduced her to Joe Weber, the actor."
She said she overheard a conversa
tion betwene Smith and Weber re
al in g to a Mr. Solomon, whom sbe be
lieved was Weber's brother-in-law.
"There was discuss ice-of now they
-uld get a parole for hire" she said
Senator Wheeler asked if there was
toy talk of "fixing It with Daugherty."
"That was the conversation, what It
was about." she said.
Smith, she said, was "afraid to talk
at first me being a third party."
There were several talks about the
Sotr-mon parole, she said.
"Was there any reference to any
money transaction in it." asked Sena
tor Wheeler.
"He said ce"s awfuly cheap." re
plied Miss Stinson.
"'He wants something for nothing
I don't know, whether he will do
anything about -a. cr, not." ". ..
The eleven tbourssd dollar account
with Vngerleider and company which
Ma Daugberty took over as executor
of Smith's estate was brought In.
Daugherty had told ber. Miss Stinson
said, that It really belonged to her.
When she hired a lawyer named Ben
nett to take up ber figbt for It, sbe
said, tbe lawyer retired from tbe case
because she was determined to come
to Washington and testify In the sea-
ate hearing. .
The lawyer whom she identified as
"Smith Bennett" wanted to communi
cate with tbe attorney general about
it. Miss Stinson said, and refused to
return ber papers,-
Mai Daugherty advised her. sbe said,
to draw a check on his bank for Ben
nett's feet and be, Daugherty,. would
'take care of ft." although she bad no
account there. ' ; :
After, describing bow she came to
be here to testify. Miss Stinsoa add
ed:
"I admit that Jesse Smith received
