Hamilton Denies Guilt.

Olympia, May S.-Ortis Hamilton,
former adjutant general, this morning
srrrsigned before police magistrate
Giles, charged with the embezzlement
of state funds. pleaded not guilty. and
waived examination. He asked that
the case be Immediately transmitted to
the superior court for trial His bail
still remains at $4,000 and he was
returned to Jail after the hearing.
The little court room was packed
when Hamilton entered. He betrayed
no recognition Of any spectators and
composed himself in an distracted
manner, and was apparently uninter-
ested in the proceedings. He was
represented by Judge Robinson. From
what can be learned he is no nearer
to raising the bail than when he was
first arrested. He spent the first night
in jail in the office of the deputy
sheriff where bed was made. This
apparent favoritism shown to Ham
ilton has wrought up the people of
Olympia and the Deputy's action is
severely criticised. 1t is asserted that
the former military officer is not en-
titled to any more consideration than
any other prisoner.

Washington, May S.-Secretary
Wilson is reported to have won the
first round in the fight with Secre-
tary Ballinger to uphold the Roose-
welt conservation polices when the
cabinet upheld Wilson in the conten-
tion over the Withdrawals of the land
from entry made by Roosevelt that
it was legal and proper. Ballinger
contended that they were illegal.
Ballinger is reported to have stated
at a meeting that he favored con-
servation, but believed it could not be
accomplished in the manner attempt
ed by Secretary Garfield under the
Roosevelt administration.
Ballinger stated that he would with
draw from entry the forest ranger
tracts, which were the basis of the
row in the cabinet. He said he in
tended to recommend congress to en-
act special laws providing for the
conservation of water powers. Presi-
dent Taft told Ballinger that it was
understood that he did not want him
to make any more restorations of
land to entry until congress had time
to act upon the matter of conserva-
tion. Ballinger said he would gladly
follow the suggestion
