The above is in part the statement
of John Harlan, alias John Armstrong,
who was given preliminary hearing
before Justice White on Tuesday of
this week on the charge of stealing
some $50 from James Altman on last
Saturday night. Four men had gone
TO the pool for swim. Altman paid

him during the day. Harlan denied
this but said the dollar was given him
by Altman to buy bottle of Old Grow
whiskey and that he bought it and
they took it to the pool.
According to Altman, Harlan left
the pool and went to their dressing
room and that when he went to dress
he missed his money and that he call

failed to find the man. On Sunday the

were ready to leave for Leadville.
Deputy Sheriff Teeters searched his
prisoner and found about $50 on him.
After hearing the evidence, Justice
White bound Harlan over to the dis

county jail.
According to the prisoner, the affair
is the result of too much booze, but

American Gems.

Few think Of America as field in
which to seek gems or precious stones;
least OF all is the State of Maine
thought of in this connection. How
ever. investigation shows that Maine
is playing very important part in the
jewel market Maine gems are among
the finest found anywhere, our princi-
pal contribution being in the shape Of
fine tourmalines We are also finding
the fresh water pearls in considerable
numbers. Other parts of the country
produce diamonds, turquois. sapphires
and other gems in large quantities.
In 1908 the total production of
precious stones in this country, other
than the fresh water pearls, amounted
to $415.063. 1t is barely possible that
as many gems were found as in the
previous year. but the restricted de-
mand due to trade depression doubt
less had something to do with reduc-
ing the value of the years production.
as it appears to be less than in 1907.
Arizona. Nevada and California
produce turquois. which gem shows a
remarkable increase, the value for 1907
being $23,S40 while in 1908 the value
was $147,950. California. Maine and
Connecticut produced $500 pounds of
tourmaline with a gross value of $50
per pound The principal falling off
was in the value of the sapphire mine,
the figures for 1907 being $229. 500 as
against S3S,397 in 1908 Arkansas
alone is producing diamonds The
first one was found in 1906 and since
that time diamonds have been found
to the value of $500 each wear.

Thu Ballinaer Investigation.

Secretary Ballinger of the Interior
Department has notified President
Taft that he will no longer remain
silent under the merciless criticism
| which has been directed toward his
department and toward him PERSONAL
ly, during the past few months. He
will no longer pursue the course
recommended by the President, that
he maintain a dgnfied silence until
the excitement blows over. He de-
mands an investigation if he is to re-
main a member of the official family.
He will get the investigation. The
insistent call that there be more light
upon this subject cannot be waved
aside A thorough investigation is
the only thing that will satisfy every
body.
If Mr.. Ballinger is in the right if he
deserves the confidence placed in him
by the President. it will appear; it he
is wrong it is right that the people
should know of it.
The controversy between Mr.. Balm
ger and Mr. Pinchot, the charges
brought by former special agent
CLAWS and the noisy horde who joy
fully embrace every opportunity to
snap at the heels of public officials,
combined to create state of affairs
which could not be tolerated. 1t
is recognized that instead of closing
the breach, it has been growing wider
constantly and that if something
definite is not done soon the admins
tration will be seriously embarrassed.
Many of the leading Republicans in
Secretary Ballinger in his demand for
an opportunity to defend himself. 1t
will undoubtedly be accorded him.
Secretary Ballinger does not care for
the whitewash brush. he only asks an
opportunity to meet his accusers face
to face. According to the press dis
patches four aspects Of the situation
We're considered in deciding to open
the matter for inquiry; first, the eff
feet upon the administration and the
future of the Republican party; Sec
ond, the possibility that the bitterness
engendered by the discussion might
endanger party legislation; third, the
stagnation in conservation matters
due to the controversy and fourth the
desire to see justice done cabinet
officer whose personal and official in
tegrity have been attacked. The pub
lie is assured that the investigation
will be relentless. that there will be no
star chamber sessions and that when
it is finished all misunderstanding
concerning our conservation of re-
sources policy will have been cleared
up.

Unfair Criticism.

In the Daily Consular and Trade
Reports Consul Charles \. Daniels
sends from the English city OF
Sheffield some remarks relating to
American apple exports that are of
interest to Maine orchardists.
Taking Sheffield as an instance. he
finds that this English city con-
sumes 5000 to $4,000 worth of
apples weekly during the season
from Oct. l to the middle of
March or April l. Of this amount
three-fi are Canadian, the re-
manning American. Consul Dan
iels says the tendency is Ito favor
the Canadian grower and packer,
the reason for this being that Can
ada exercises supervision over the
grading, packing and branding of
its fruit that is entirely lacking
in the American product" The
result is that the American apple
grower is losing his foothod in
the English market Before
staple trade can be established the
American must do certain things
says Consul Daniels. He must
establish fixed grades and brands
and be prepared to stand behind
them with his guarantee" The
consul severely criticizes present
American methods: the failure of
exporters to pack uniformly and
fairly. barrel containing three or
four varieties. and those in the
center so poor as to be hardly fit
for cider making. 1t is such
packing as this" he says, that
makes the English retailer fight
shy of American apples" And
this sort of packing is not confined
to the export trade in American
apples. In letter to the Boston
