WASHINGTON. I). C. April 13—If the
amendment agreed to by the senate Com-
mittee on Indian affairs Is agreed to by
the senate and house, there will be crea-
ted six good federal jobs paying $2,600 a
year each not counting pcrdiem and
traveling expenses, which will go to tried
and true democrats outside the civil
service. The new positions created by
the se ate committee, at the urgent
request of ^.ldlan Commissioner Cato
Sells, will be In the nature of special
agents, who will work directly under
Commissioner Hells as confidential agents
similar to the special agents of the

A peculiar and Interesting fact about
Miss Hamersley Is that she was brought
up in igonrance of the fact that she was
worth some 120,000,000. She was the
daufehUtr of J, Hooker Hamersley, who
built a Fifth avenue mansion. He left
instructions in his will, as did his wife on
iter death, that the your.g woman and her
brother were fo be brought up in n whole-
some manner. He was very definite on
the direction that neither was to know of
the inheritance of millions, till of age

more thnn a' century. Andrew Hamers-

Enactment of Proposed Law of
Particular Interest to Op-
erators in California.
WASHINGTON. April IS—(Special.)—
Secretary Lane today recommended the
enactment of a law for the relief of
independent oil operators upon public
lands. The bill is particularly interest-
ing to operators in California because of
the situation now existent in that state.
A very large number of oil claims have
been located under the general mining
laws, which are not well adapted to the
development of this kind of mineral,
with the result that most of the claims
are under investigation by the land de-
partment or have been n'ade the sub-
ject of proceedings in the land offices or
in the courts. '
The uncertainty of titles to these
lands has resulted In the refusal of pipe
line ownen and oil purchasers to trans-
port and buy the c!l produced froni the
lands Involved. This is disadvantage-
ous not only to the rlainmnts and
operators, but to the United States, be-
cause the failure to con'.iuously operate
the wells may result In the diminution
or destruction of the oil values through
the intrusion of water Into the wells,
or through the draining of the oil
and gas deposits from nnder the gov-
ernment lands through oil wells sunk
and In operation upon adiacent patented
lands.
The bill is designed to temporarily re-
lieve the existing situation by permitting
the secretary of the interior, in his dis-
cretion, to enter into agreements with
applicants for patents in possession of
these lands relative to the disposition* of
oil or gas produced therefrom, or the
proceeds thereof, pending final deter-
mination of the title to the lands by the
secretary oi such other disposition as
I mr.y be authorized by law.
I In his report the secretary expresses
j the opinton that the situation demands
immediate attention, but also points out
that further legislation in the form of a
general bill providing for the disposition
of such deposits through leases, will be
necessary. The representatives of the
independent oil operators of California
now in the city, are also urging the en-
actment of the legislation.
The Argument is this—
