OREOOX, WEDNESDAY, .TUTiY 23, 1025 PflGE THREE LABORERS IKED FORGOTTEN LAND GRANT M'NHCO iPRINCEOFWALESONi BY IMPOSTOR, IN REVENGEFUL MOOD . Over 70 men fieetdnir work, believed a mun yesterday afternoon, who gave his name aa Grant, that thcro watt a forest fire covering an area of many hundred acrea In the Crater Lako Na tional Park, and that fire fighters were noededto fight It, The man was at Efttes pool hall and other Front Htreet eatubliahmenu yesterday afternoon "hiring" the men, promis ing them that their pay commenced aa soon as they were hired to fight the fictitious fire. The man even hired four trucks from the Eads transfer company to give the Impression that he meant business in taking the men to the Bcene of the blase. He stated he would set out lust night, but finally told the men depurture would bo made this morning. However, when . morning arrived he had departed for other parts, leaving them to wonder what It was all about. When one of the attaches of the lo cal forest service office Investigated . the affair last night by going to Kates pool hall and there meeting the man, he was Informed that Superintendent Thomson of tho Crater . Jjxko Na tional Park had sent Grant to the city to recruit an army of fire fighters to fight a large fire In the park. Ef forts were at once made to get In touch with park headquarters, but were unsuccessful until this morning, when the superintendent Informed the local office thero wok no fire within the boundaries and the man giving . his name as Grant was an lm poster. The description of Grant tallied close ly with one of the employes of tho park service who was recently dis charged, and U is believed that the act of hiring so many men to fight a fire which was not burning was merely an act of revenge because of his dis missal. : v Grant is among the missing, and perhaps is now thinking he has avenged his discharge, but federal of ficials are searching for him and if caught charges will bo placed against . him. Superintendent Thomson warns local-people no man is a representative , of his office unless he has proper credentials denoting his station, and that any person representing his of fice without, these proper papers is an !m poster, BIRMINGHAM, Ala.. July 27. A grunt of land made neurly tit) years ago to James, J. Heuly. of Birmingham, by President Porfiro Diaz of Mexico, has made'u multlinllllonalro of Henly. Af ter a long battle In Mexican couitn, Heuly has been awarded $7,500,001) fur , oil taken from his lands, J Heuly, a mining engineer, spent four Vears, from 1902 to '1906. in Mexico, .making a eeolofflcul survey of Mexico 'for Diaz. When the task was done, the Mexican dictator paid him off .with 'a grant of l.U'0,000 acres of land, 1 700.000 acres of which is located in the Cerrozul basin, Btato of Vera Cruz. This 1b the same basin iron, which J3. h. Dohcny and his associates have obtained much of their oil. ' Hoaly, busy with engineering work tn various countries, thought , llttlo about his Mexican wastes until oil was found there In 1017. He then, an of ficer in the Eighty-Third division In Franco, and naturally couldn't leave When Ilealv finally not to the scene in 1919, he instituted suit. Those suits with the court awarding Heuly the value of the oil extracted, plus inter est. Government figures, kept for taxation purposes, gave an accurate check on the production from Healy's lands. By agreement, the award was to be paid in installments, the first one duo July 1 of this year and the rest In two similar installments six months and a year later, respectively. The first 32,500,000 has just been deposited to Healey's favor in a Mexican bank and he has loft to be identified in person, a procedure necessary Jn Mexico.
