Fall and Doheny Not Guilty in 1922 Oil Leasing Trial
Jurors in the District of Columbia supreme court found former Interior Secretary Rupert B. Fall and Edward L. Doheny not guilty of conspiracy to defraud the government in 1922 oil lease negotiations. The $100,000 loan cited by the defense as a friendly transaction helped shape the verdict. Senator Walsh called the trial fair but noted public lingering questions about the conduct.
