COMMISSIONER BALLINGER
ASKS FOR $50o,oo0.

Commissioner Ballnger of the general
land office has completed his annual re-
port to the Secretary of the Interior for
submission to Congress. He asks an APP
preparation of $5OO,O00 to carry on the
field work of his bureau in the protection
of the public lands an increase of JO,O0O
over the current appropriation The COM
missioner has submitted some interesting
figures showing the amount of business
done by his bureau during the last two
years.
During the fiscal years 190o-07 there
were entered of record for investigation
"a 459 cases of all kinds: of these the
agents investigated and disposed of 12.-
1O4 cases, and 12.356 cases remained for
examination July /. 1907. Since then the
number of cases has largely increased.
There were . 243 land entries relinquished
after the case was in the hands of the
special agent for investigation. 3o3 en-
tries were Cancelled after hearings had
upon special agents charges, 367 unlaw-
full Enclosures of public lands were re-
moved, restoring 1,940.120 acres to the
omen range There were twenty-seven con-
yictfons connected with these cases.
The total of moneys recovered by the
government on all special agents cases
was $3.50 251. and 2,3I2,223 acres OF land
were either freed from fraudulent claims
of title or released from unlawful in
closure and occupancy.
The commissioner states that the pres
ent force of agents is sufficient TO handle
only about one-half of the work In the
field
