WHEELER MAKES COMPLETE DENIAL WASHINGTON, May 9.—Senator Burke K. Wheeler, taking the stand in his own behalf, denied stately today before the Borah committee investigating his indictment by a Montana grand jury, that he ever had practiced before the department of the interior. The indictment charged Wheeler with having appeared before the land office of the department after he had been elected senator, in violation of law. Wheeler described how he was employed by Gordon Campbell, Montana oil operator, to try a re-relief case, for which Campbell agreed to pay him $10,000. "Didn't you give assurances then that when you went to Washington you'd 'take up the matters of the permit'?" asked Senator Sterling, Rep. of So. Dak. "I never heard the word permits mentioned," Wheeler replied. "That's ridiculous. If that were true I should be in an insane asylum." Wheeler said he accepted employment by Campbell, after he was elected senator, but before taking office. "In my whole career, I have never handled oil land permits. I have never been in litigation involving permits; and I've never practiced before the land office of the department of the interior regarding permits," Wheeler fairly shrugged. "I've been engaged in law units all my life in my own state and most of these suits have been against the corporations in Montana." REFUSES TO TESTIFY WASHINGTON, May 9.—Edward L. Doheny, Jr., son of the lessee of Elk Hills naval reserve, who carried the famous "little black satchel" containing $100,000 from New York to Washington and turned it over to Albert B.
