BALLINGER WILL SEE TAFT
Forestry Service May BE Transferred
to Interior Department.

Beverly, Mass, Sept. 6.-L-vely
speculation is being INDUCED in
around The Summer capital regard
ing results that may follow the visit
OF Secretary of the Interior Rallinger
to Beverly this week Mr.. Ballinger
will bring with him the reports
called for by the President from va
rious officials of the Interior Depart
ment Mr.. Ballinger, after scanning
these papers in Washington, an
nounced that the department had
nothing to fear as to the course of
it's officials.
One of the hints thrown out re-
Gently is to the effect that an effort
may be made to transfer the forest
ry service from the Department OF
Agriculture to the Department of the
Interior.
Whether Chief Forester Pinchot
would consent to remain in office
if he were placed where he would
be directly subordinate to the Sec
rotary of the Interior is susceptible
of doubt.

Speaking to the representatives of
the press, DR.. Cook said he left at
the North Pole an American flag and
box containing documents, includ-
ing brief account of the trip and
observations and the data to bear
out his claim, and that he brought
back the most exact observations,
absolutely proving his statement
The explorer also said he kept a
diary throughout his entire expedi-
ton, in which he recorded the most
minute details.
DR.. Cook stated in part:
Concerning the ice around the
Pole, it was slightly more active
there than at one or two degrees
south. Its general character was
not very different from that at other
places We stayed around the Pole
for two days making many observa-
lions. | don't claim to have put my
finger on the exact spot; | do not
claim to have put my foot on 1T, but
personally | think we have been at
the spot. When the observations
have been figured out again, it is
possible that there will be found
slight errors and differences, but
am certain that a gunshot fired from
where we were would have passed
over the Pole"
Prepared to Face Scrutiny.
81 am quite prepared to place my
observations before any geographical
society in the world. | have already
received kilograms from the geo
graphical societies of Sweden, Nor
way, Denmark, Belgium and other
countries, which congratulate me.
LAS to the temperature at the
Pole, it was minus 3S. | took about
400 photographs, one of which
shows the American flag flying.
These have not been developed.
The daily distance covered on the
.crthward trip was slightly less than
Is miles; on the southwark trip 1t
was 10 miles.
Last Animals at S3 Degrees.
1--WE lived entirely on dried meat
and beef tallow, reducing the food
problem to a science. The last trace
of animals we saw was bear track
at SO degrees. Afterwards we did
not even see anything in the water
except algae."

POINTS WITH REGRET.
House Resolution Deplores the Exist
ing Conditions in Russia.

Washington, March 22-Repre-
sentative Bennett of New York, has
introduced a resolution deploring the
acts of violence and inhumanity,
which, it is said, are committed in
Russia, claiming such acts to be
shocking to the civilized world and
retarding to universal progress.
In the long preamble which precedes
the resolution, the United States
recognizes the friendly feeling be-
tween the people and the government
of this country and those of Russia
and acknowledges the service of the
car in summoning the Hague peace
conference.
Further, it is set forth that congress
has received a petition signed by well
known American citizens, in which on
authority of official representatives of
the Russian government it is claimed
that men. women and children
practically noncombatantS - are
MANNED and killed, torture applied to
prisoners in the prisons and fortresses
to obtain Information and nassacres
are planned and carried out by the
police and military for the purpose of
terrorizing the population. 1t is fur
ther set forth that large numbers of
widowed, orphaned and Impoverished
survivors of these massacres have
come to this country, many times
without natural supporters and IN
great deStitution.
