Noted Russian Prisoner
Pouren Steps From
Gotham Jail a
Free Man

NEW YORK, March 30.-After
two years incarceration in the
New York city Jail because he
was too poor to furnish the requis-
ite bond for his appearance in
court, Jan Pouren, the Russian
Immigrant, who was charged by
Russia with murder and arson,
and whose extradition was de-
manded, ended his long and spec
tacular fight for freedom when he
today stepped from the portals of
the Tombs prison, free man.
Pouren was sought by the czar's
government because he was
thought to possess revolutionary
secrets.
Pouren fed from Europe to
America. He was ferreted out
by the czar's emissaries and ar
rested on a charge of murder and
other crimes.
Pouren maintained that he was
being sought as a political offend
er and, in the United States court,
proved that he was innocent. The
Russian government appealed.
The secretary of state, however,
upheld the commissioners ruling
and Pouren today was discharged
from custody.
He was greeted by several thou
sand compatriots.

Another strike of coal has been
made in South Tacoma, indicating
that the coal field discovered by
the city well drillers is general
in that section of the city.
The Standard Well Drilling
company, which Is drilling the

water department, encountered a
vein of coal and has penetrated 1t
for Ave feet. Drillers In another

coal short time ago.
The experiment well site is
some distance from that where the
citysstruck the coal, and the latest
deposit to be drilled into was
found at a depth of 368 feet. In
the city we'll the coal vein was
only 20S feet deep, which indi-
Gates the vein runs on a dip and
1t may come still closer to the top

WASHINGTON, March 80. -
The conservation of the natural
resources OF the country In per-
fectly safe, sane and conserva-
tive" way, without impeding In
any way the development Of the
resources of the great west and
without hysteria in one direction
or another. is to be the policy OF
the interior department under
President Taft and Secretary OF
the Interior Ballinger.
The big change in the land Of
flee Is that there will be no poll
ICY" Secretary Ballinger will mot
admit that policy is necessary.
He is going to enforce the law. .OG
course, he's going to enforce II Diff
ferently from the way In which ie
was enforced under Roosevelt and
here comes the change.
Soft Pedal ON TO Stay.
But the change will not be 10.
Icomplished at one fell swoop. Tho
|officials of the land office are Of
1.-THE opinion that during the past
seven years there has been too
much of the "Whoop-er-up-b0y9~
business in the conduct of the gon-
eral land office and the soft pedal
is on and on to stay.
Much Land Withdrew.
During the seven years that
Roosevelt occupied the White
house tract after tract OF publlQ
land was withdrawn from entry. u
is said that a man can ride from
the Missouri river to the Pacific
ocean without his horse having to
step hoof outside governments
land that has been withdrawn tenn
porarily from entry.
In most cases no reason was Civ
en- for the withdrawal of the pub
lie lands. During the last year OF
his administration, however, the
reason became apparent. The land
was to be conserved"
Don't Agree With Teddy.
Secretary Ballinger was a close
friend of Former President Rooser
welt. He was for year commip-
sioner of the general land office
under Roosevelt and member OF
|the Tennis cabinet" He under
stood the Roosevelt ideas from the
ground up, but he does not think
they should be followed in Just the
manner his former chief employed,
Secretary Ballinger thinks that
conservation means the prevention
of waste and not the prevention Of
development.
Secretary Ballinger will NO t31k
about policies.
To Throw Much Land Open.
1t is expected that under BalIi1-
ger, millions of acres Of land
Withdrawn from Classification, VIVA
be thrown back for entry again.
There Is a hive of industry n
the general land office now. They
have q million dollars to spend
over there, just twice az much a.
they had last year and four times
as much as they had the year be-
fore.
The money II going to be puk
principally to two uses. In the
first place. the old land cases thee
are orowding the docket Will be
cleaned up. Then honeE men
will be aided In obtaining land.

GODDARD OUT
AGAINST Lynn

City Clerk Roys is preparing
the ballots for the election next
Tuesday. There are 9,140 voters
registered and this means that
there must be 1890 ballots
printed as the law requires two
ballots for each voter.
A. M. Goddard Is the only in
dependent candidate thus far in
the field, he having come out
against q. A. Lynn in the First
ward. Goddard is making his
campaign on the platform of more
business and less politics in the
city council.
J. B. Hawthorne is now the only
candidate for councilman in the
city who has no opposition. He
has . clear field in the Seventh
ward.

UP
SALOON

Believing that the proprietor Of
the Union Pacific Tunnel saloon,
25th and Jefferson, had run up"
his beer account and that his bill
was padded, John O'Mally, a
young man, last night proceeded
to lay out the bartender under a
table, chased the proprietor from
the place, and then commenced a
campaign of destruction. Before
he could be stopped he had brok-
en- up more than 500 worth of
wet goods and had damaged the
saloon seriously. O'Mally will be
tried before Judge Arntson this
afternoon.
