It was indieated that ths committee would call Dr. Tupper to explain for what the draft waa payment. , . ,.. In the course of his description, of the development of the Mexican oil fields, largely by American capital, Mr. Doheney admitted his company had paid Manuel Palaei, the rebel leader, for protection but declared that the -payment was made on the sdviee of EJisee Arrendondo . and also that the course waa in line with suggestions of John Iind and J.

Doheney has completed his testimouy which had taken almost two days to give, when Chairman Fall asked him if he ever had known of any of those who had been active in their work in behalf, of Carranza receiving any re muneration. His answer was the pre sentation of a draft which had been made out by the Huasteea Petroleum Company in favor of the treasurer gen eral of Mexieo, and by him made pay able, tp the order of Dr. Tupper, for "value received." : After payment the check found its way back to the Huasteea company. Mr. Doheney did not pretend to know the nature f the indicated value of Dr.- Tupper's work for Carranaa and his government but intimated it was done as aa afreet of the ''International Peace Forum." Ths story of the company's troubles resulting from the payment of taxes to the' controlling ..faction was given at length by Doheney, who began with the visits of Candido Aguilur and his forces tofhe -oil country whileCa r radxa was" fighting Huerta.

Saying he had been told the West waa pervaded by "what is,,,, ...... called radicalism,' the President de clared the only way to keep men from agitating against grievances was to re move the grievances. As long as things are wrong,1" he said, he did not intend to ask men to atop agitating, begging -' only that they use orderly methods. He said radicalism meant "cutting up by the roots" a process that would.be unnecessary if "noxious growths" were removed. When the President waa introduced by Governor Stewart at his night ad dress here tho crowd stood up aad cheered.
