In Oil Lease Suits Say Data
as Given Out by Doheny
Confuses the Facts.
WAR SCARE OVER
WHEN LEASE MADE
Is Contention of Government
Agents, Who Also Say the
Arms Conference Treaties
Signed Before Leases.
(Dr the Auwtitcd Proas)
New York. July 2—ln answer to the
tatements of Edw-?a L. Doheny that
representations of danger of war in the
Pacific proinote<l his part in the naval
oil* leases, the New York Times today
pgHlshcd comments by government coun
sel in the oil lease prosecution, and of
other officials connected with the cases.
Mr. Doheny declared the war danger
was kept secret because officials were
afraid of wrecking the peace conference.
IJnt both Atlee I’omerene and Owen J.
Huberts said that the main treaties re
sulting from the conference were signed
and ratified by the Senate before the
first contract with Mr. Doheny was
signed. Mr. Pomerene recalled that2the
arms conference assembled November 12,
11121, that the delegates began signing
the articles in December; that the Sen
ate ratified the agreement in March.
11)22. while Mr. Doheny didn’t get his
first contract until April 25, 1922.
As for naval officers fears of Oriental
invasion of this country being deleted
from Rear Admiral John K. Robinson's
deposition at the Cheyenne oil lease trial,
Mr. Pomerene said;
"Whatever was deleted had to do with
matters which the State Department in
public interest said it did not care to
have disclosed publicly."
“There was nothing in the deposition
of any particular moment that affected
the situation. If there was any war
scare as I)r. Doheny calls it, then it was
all settled when the first Doheny con
tract was signed.
“What about the little Black Satchel '!

ment —ns a matter of fact, at less than
a twelfth of the average cost over all the
districts, it is claimed.
The Commissioner of Revenue at
Washington today released for publica
tion some statistics of all the sixty-five
collection districts oftlie United States,
including North Carolina. These tables
show North Carolina to be much ahead
of the average with jperson
al 'incomes taxes only.

year 1923 which were returned during
the following year. As to North Caro
lina. it was pointed out that the num
ber of individual income tax returns in
creased more than seventeen per cent
while all over the country the increase
averaged only thirteen per cent.
The total increase of individual' in
comes in North Carolina was more than
thirty-five per cent, while the average
increase over the country wns ouly
twenty-three per cent. The actual in
crease of taxes paid in North Carolina
was approximately eleven per cent
while over the whole country there was
an average decrease of eighteen per cent
by individuals.
It was also (minted out here today
that of the. eieveu strictly Southern
States, Texas alone hns more individual

Scientist.
Los Angeles. July 2.—The wnole
Pacific Const, extending some miles east
of the Rooky Mountains, is rising as if
impelled by some mighty uusren hand,
in the opinion of Ralph Arnold, of the
Seismologieal Society of America.
“What is the cause we do not know,
but we know it is a growing range. In
the course of great lapses of time, as the
ranges rise, the strata break and great
fraetures or faults occur- Some extend
many miles, 100 or more. Readjustment
of the earth's surface occurs along these
faults or along new faults. The move
ments may be up and dbwn or side
wise along the fault. The movements
extend from a few inches to many feet,
possibbly 15 or 20 feet.”

PLACE FOR CONCEALMENT
OF LIQUOR DISCOVERED
Sheriff Caldwell and Officer Chapman Do
a Sherlock Holmes Stunt to Find Hid
ing Place.
Sheriff Caldwell and Officer Chapman,
of Kannapolis, are laying clu : ms to the
title of the county's premier detectives, its
chief Sherlooks, after last night’s activi
ties.
For some time, it had been known that
there was a liquor cache in Kannapolis,
but no one laid been able to discover it.
Prohibition agents had been sent from
Washington to run it down but to no •
avail. It just couldn't be found.
The sheriff and the officer last night
derided to make a search of a house
which had been under suspicion for some
time and which had been searched ou
numerous occasions. It had been recent
ly vacated but it was decided to give it
the once over in order to see whether or I
not the Washington agents had overlook
ed anything.
What they found was a place for hid
ing 500 or more gallons so craftily con
cealed as to escape suspicion.
On enteriug the hull, there was hung a
string to a nail, just as though a calen
der or some other object of like nature
had Seen attached- A pill], however, tv
vealed the fact that it moved some slid
ing panels in the dining room behind a
china closet. In the aperture was a cav
ity which was capable of containing large
quantities of liquor.
No spirits were found at this place but
just outside of Kannapolis, fourteen gaW
lons of liquor were discovered buried in
the ground.

TIfE COTTON MARKET
Opened (Ready at Advance of 2 to 9
Points, With October Easing Off to
23.88.
(By the Associated Presa)
New York. July 2.—The cotton mar
ket opened steady today at an advance
of 2 to 9 points owing to the failure of
early weather news to show rains in the
southwest and rather more encouraging
reports from the cotton goods trade.
Circulation of a few July notices
caused some near month liquidation,
however, while there was considerable
pre-bureau realizing in the late months.
After selling at 24.03 October contracts
eased off ao 23.88, active months showing
net losses of about 6 to 13 points at
the end of the first hour. Another pri
vate crop report estimated the condition
at 73.9 and indicated the yield at 1.3
596,000. These figures seemed about in
line with the average of previously is
sued reports.
Cotton futures opened steady. July
23.97; Oct. 24.00; Dec. 24.06; Jan.
23.52; March 23.85; May 24.10.

BUSINESS IN FIFTH
FEDERAL RESERVE DISTRICT
Conclusions Difficult to Draw, Due to
Conflicting Testimony.
(By the AMMOciated Prem)
Richmond. Va.. July I.—“ Conclusions
on the business situation in the Fifth Re
serve district at the middle of June are
difficult to draw." said the current
monthly review made public today by Wil
liam Hoxton. "conflicting testimony being
much in evidence.”
Continuing, the review said:
"In an agricultural section like the
Fifth District much depends uik>u crop
prospects, but at the present writing
these prospects are highly problematical.
"Early farm work was done from ten
days to two weeks earlier this year than
usual, but dry weather in April, cold
weather and frosts in May. and hot, dry
weather during the tirst half of June de,-.
biped seed germination aud plant develop
ment tO'Such an extent that much of the
earl.v start was lost. Fruit prospects tip-"
peur considerably worse than a year
ago. taking the district as a whole, the
tobacco outlook is not promising aud the
weevil is seriously menacing the cotton
crop in South Carolina and much of
North Carolina. Truck crops, especial
ly Irish potatoes, are turning out below
early indications, and the hot. dry weath
er lias cut the early hay yield very seri
ously. Business failures in the Fifth
District in May exceeded failures In May,
1924, in both number and liabilities. Tex
tile mills have begun reducing their out
put as forward orders are caught up. Tile
volume of construction work is showing
signs of falling off here and there in the
district, and the volume of retail and
wholesale trade 111 May was somewhat
below the business done in May, 1924.
"On the other hand,” continued the re
view, “debits to individual accounts fig
ures show that a larger volume of busi
ness is passing through the banks of the
leading trade centers than was the ease
a year ago. Labor continues well em
ployed and some improvement has re
cently been reported in the coal fields, of
the fifth district. Corn aud other grain
crops are doing well and promise relief
from the feed shortage on the farms. Rank
deposits are increasing. On the whole,
prospects for the near future in the Fifth
District depend upon weather conditions.”

A Correction.
Because of objections voiced by Parks-

appeared in a headline of Wednesday's
paper that "practically every firm in Con

day each week," The Tribune wishes to
make correction of the same.
It should not have been “practically
every firm." What it should have been
was that practically every firm selling
dry goods and allied lines had decided to
give clerks a half holiday.
It is quite true, us J. G. Parks pointed
out this morning, the filling stations, ga
rages, meat markets, moving picture
houses and other firms are not closing
their doors to give ,an outing.
Also, as,was shown, only 11 grocery-stores
