For the prosecution.
The indicted street railway

drawn from the, proceedings. has un-

In submitting to the Jury what
was declared to be conclusive evil
dence of perjury on Gallagher's part.
the defense referred repeatedly to in
stances wherein the testimony Of the

lating to the perjury that Gallagher

show the motives Of the witness in

A Costly Mile.

The new Washington street subway.
Boston, which passes through the
heart Of the shopping district, Is con.
sidered to be the most costly mile of
underground railway in the world. It's
construction and equipment has cost
s10,000,000, or about $4,000 per lineal
foot. The first section of Boston's
modern system of rapid transit, con.
sisting OF subway tunnels, was opened
about fourteen years ago. This was
followed by the erection few years
later of the elevated road; and sub.
sequently to that the system was ex
tended by the construction of the East
Boston tunnel under the harbor. The
opening of the Washington street
tunacl marks tho latest, and one Of
the most important extensions.

that the claimant had been seen in

on the ground that the man might
have been carrying the flea for half
an hour before he went to work.

GENERAL GRANT INDISCREET
Thought to Have Spoken Without a
knowledge Of the Facts.

Chicago, Nov. 30.-Mllitary and po-
litical circles are discussing a report
from Washington that Major General
Frederick Dent Grant may be re-
buked by the state department for
utterances in connection with the at.
utude Of the United States toward
Nicaragua. 1t is said the commander
OF the Department Of the Lakes may
expect an official communication from
the capital this week.
General Grant admits the authen-
ITCHY OF the newspaper interview in
which he expressed the conviction
that, should 1t be shown that Leroy
Cannon and Leonard Groce were al
lied with the revolutionists seeking to
overthrow the Zelaya government, the
United States will have no valid claim
for indemnity. He denied, however,
that his expression was an official one,
saying that 1t was only his own per-
sonal opinion and was given for what
it might be worth.
II is said the authorities at Wash
ington feel that General Grant has
been indiscreet and assert that in the
present instance he spoke without
knowledge of the facts.
When his attention was called to
the Washington dispatches General
Grant was disposed to treat the mat
ter lightly. He said that he was not
at all concerned and had no fear of an
official "call down"

KING EDWARD ARBITRATOR
In the Alsop Claim Pending Between
the United States and Chilli.

Washington, Nov. 80. - Whitelaw
Reid, American ambassador at Lon
don, has been instructed by the state
department to request King Edward
to act as arbitrator of the Alsop claim
case which has been pending be-
tween the United States and Chilli for
many years. Full authority has been
telegraphed to Seth Low Pierrepont,
charge daffaires of the American le-
CATION at Santiago, to sign the pro-
tocol of settlement agreed on several
days ago.
The claims amount to more than ST.
100000. 1t grew out of loan of mon.
ey made by Alsop & Co., an American
concern, to the Bolivian government
to be secured by the receipts at the
custom house at africa. This port Ia
ter passed into the control of Chill as
a result of the war between Chill,
Peru and Bolivia. Several times the
Chiliap government has admitted its
validity and promised to pay the
claim,

TRIAL OF SUGAR employees
IN Criminal Branch Of United States
Circuit Court.


New York, Nov. 80. - The trial of
James F. Bendernagel, Oliver Spitzer
and four Of the five sugar trust weigh
ers who are under indictment began
in the criminal branch of the United
States circuit court before Judge
James l.. Martin of Vermont. So
much time was taken up in arguments
for a demurrer by counsel for the de-
PENDANTS and by a motion to quash
the indictments that when the court
iose few minutes after o'clock the
fury was not complete.
1t was evident from the line OF
questioning adopted by the defence
In Its examination of the jurymen that
no small amount of importance is at
tached to the influence on the public
mind of newspaper and magazine ar
ticles and of the published statements
of Henry L. Stimson, special prosecu-
tor for the government. Also the very
fact that the governments interests
are represented by prosecutor other
than the United States district attor-
ney, was emphasized by the defend
ants lawyers.
Judge Martin cleared up this point,
however, when he said that whether
the government was especially anx-
!ous to convict the defendants or not
the court and the jury were not to al
low that fact to make a difference in
the hearing of the case.

REVISED LAND LAWS
Recommendation Of Secretary
BaIIinger In His First Report.

Legislation Necessary to Enable the
Government to Retain Control oi
Water Power and Reservoir Sites on
the Public Domain-Prlvate Enter
prise to Be Encouraged Under Ma
tional Supervision and Control.
A strong recommendation that the
public lands and other natural re-
sources shall be held in control of the
government that the land laws shall be
80 changed as to prevent further dep
relations on the public domain, and
an emphatic declaration OF his belief
In the policy of conservation, briefly
summarizes the first report of Richard
A. Ballinger as secretary Of the in
terror.
Secretary Ballinger's report, 1t Is
known, was scrutinized by President
Taft before 1t was given out for pub
lication and reflects the attitude the
administration will assume in the
matter OF conservation. The Taft pol.
Icy Is expressed briefly in this state
ment taken from Secretary Balllnger's
report:
"ln this present policy Of conserv.
ing the natural resources of the pub
lie domain. while development is the
keynote, the best thought of the day
Is not that development shall be by
national agencies, but that wise utili.
yation shall be secured through pri-
vate enterprise under national super.
vision and control"
The immediate provocation for the
Ballinger-Pinchot row was based upon
a charge involving tremendously val
liable coal lands IN Alaska. 1t was al.
legged that Mr. Ballinger had shown an
undue interest in Fastening to patent
claims for coal lands in which the
Cunningham interests, which he had
formerly represented as counsel, were
concerned.
In this connection he makes an i'm
portant recommendation with a view
ito preventing monopoly or extortion"
In the disposal of lands bearing coal
On this point he says:
'As regards new legislation the
present coal land laws respecting the
states and territories, as well as Alas.
ka, should be supplanted by an act
fully meeting existing as we'll as flu
ture conditions. The inducements for
much of the crime and fraud, both con-
structive and actual, committed under
the present system can be prevented
by separating the right to mine from
the title to the soil.
81 believe the most advantageous
method will be found in a measure au-
thorizing the lease or sale of the coal
deposits in the lands, subject to for
feiture for failure to exercise the
rights granted under such reasonable
regulations as may be imposed.

JOHN MORLEYS WARNING
Adoption of Lansdowne's Amendment
Involved Transfer of Taxing Power.

London, Nov. 3O.-Viscount Morley
of Blackburn, secretary of state for
India, better known as John Morley,
was the first speaker when the debate
on the finance bill was resumed in
the house of lords.
Lord Morley said the amendment
proposed by the Marquis Of Lans-
downe, which declared in effect that
the lords were not justified in giving
their assent to the budget until the
question had been submitted to the
country, involved the transfer Of the
taxing power and the forcing of penal
dissolution. They, the government,
were asked to change representative
supremacy into an oligarchy. The
resolution of the Marquis of Lans-
down, If adopted, would throw out the
whole financial machinery of the year.
If there was one thing that could not
be submitted 10 a plebiscite, declared
Lord Morley, 1t was a budget. The
electors could not pronounce on a
financial scheme He ridiculed the
idea that the new taxes were revolu.
tionary.
Lord Morley warned the house that
there was no such a provocative OF
the fiercest conflicts as a revision Of
the constitution. The note, he said
had been sounded for a very angry
and perhaps a prolonged battle.
