Wheeler with oil permit matters of his friend and client, Gordon Campbell, Montana oil man. R. A. Bennett, attache of the general land office, was the first witness called in the trial of Senator Wheeler for alleged misuse of his office. Bennett testified that Campebil had no interest in the "Phil McGowan" drilling permit. This is a permit Campbell obtained from the government to prospect for oil in the Kevin-Sunburst field just north of here, an area four times as large as Teapot Dome, Bennett said. The evidence will be made a basis of the government charge that Senator Wheeler was to receive $10,000 from Campbell for representing him before the interior department in connection with this and other permits. John S. Slattery, chief prosecutor, announced he would base his case upon testimony of an unnamed Washington lawyer who would say that Wheeler urged him to enter a plot—50-50—whereby they would split the earnings of their prospective client, Gordon Campbell, Montana oil operator, in a shady oil deal. Slattery is banking upon testimony of Peter Nyce, a capital attorney, according to information given the United Press. Only two Washington attorneys have been summoned by the prosecution and the one other than Nyce is A. B. Furr, who disclaims any knowledge of such a real.

Other measure is a constituent amendment which would give rural districts of the state control of the upper house. According to a verbal agreement between the authors of respective measures, the constitutional amendment will be carried first by the assembly week.

Stanton Brown, foster mother of wealthy Young Lee Camp, rancher who is alleged to have died by a fall from a tankhouse last December, under arrest at San Francisco. Hanford today awaited the serving of further warrants for persons as yet not officially named in the case in connection with Tipton. There was only one indictment by the grand jury, but that in the regular procedure carries with it such warrants as may be deemed necessary to serve on any persons connected with the indictment against a specified person. The principals in the case besides Tipton are Mrs. W. Stanton Brown, who inherited all of Lee Camp's $200,000 estate; Fred Mills, foreman of the "Ranch of Regrets;" Lee Gum, Chinese servant, and Robert McCamish, nephew of Mrs. Brown. All will be summoned as witnesses. The charge of the grand jury is said to be "conspiracy to commit murder." This leaves a wide field for action by the prosecution. Tipton was ordered "shadowed" in San Francisco at an early hour yesterday morning. While detectives of the Kane Detective Agency at San Francisco watched his home in Valencia-sit., Constable Roy Martin of Hanford was speeding north with the warrant for Tipton's arrest. The latter was taken into custody at 11 o'clock last evening and bluntly accused of the crime of killing Camp. For three hours thereafter he was grilled and finally taken to the Hall of Justice and booked for murder. Camp had $30,000 in insurance on one policy which had a clause doubling the sum if he died by accident. Three days after the paper was ratified by the home office he met death. Fred Mills claims that Tipton, suspected of wielding a blunt instrument upon Camp, was in the barn at the time the alleged accident occurred. It is alleged that this part of the testimony of Mills at the inquiry has been brought into question.
