SYRACUSE, N. Y, Sept. b.
After traversing the states of Massa-

night starting along the southern
shores of Lake Erie on his way to
Chicago, where he will arrive at
1880 tomorrow morning to make
the first important stop on his thir-
teen thousand mile tour of the west

Whenever he stopped, the presi-

cheering crowds. In Massachusetts
he spoke at Worcester, Springfield
and Pittsfield. On entering New
York he was greeted at Albany by
Governor Hughes, who accompanie-
the president to Syracuse.
Today was Taft's fifty-second
birthday and he received many con-
gratulations and messages of good

ALBANY, n. Y, Sept 15.-Pres-

of the Interior Ballinger in the mat
ter of the charges filed by B R.

the general land Office, in counec-
claims in Alask9.
ton with the Cunningham coal land
In statement given out today
the president declared that Claws
case embraced only "shreds of sus-
picion, without any circumstantial
evidence" Taft also grants Ballin-
gers request to dismiss CLAWS from
the service of the government for
unjustly impeaching the Official in
tegrity of his superior officers" and
takes occasion to review the evil
dence in the so-called water power
trust and in other cases to refute
the charges that the secretary of
the interior is out of sympathy witr
the policy of the administration in
favor of conservation of the coun-
try's natural resources.
A statement, which is written in
the form of letter to Ballinger,
written before the president left his
summer home at Beverly, says:
ION the 18th of August last,
CLAWS, with headquarters at Seattle,
Wash, called at Beverly to see lie
and submit a statement relating 10
the conduct of the interior depart
ment, and particularly to actions OF
yourself and Assistant Secretary
Pierce, Commissioner of the Gen
eral Land Office bennett, and Ctiet
of the Field Service Schwartz in
reference to the so-called Cunning

Alaska. The statement does not
formulate his charges, but by III

PEONAGE PRACTICED
IN UNITED STATES
(By Associated Press. }

SPOKANE, Sept 15.-John Cliff
ton Elder, representative of the con-
gressional immigration commission,
who has come to Spokane to in
quire into labor and immigration
conditions in the inland empire and
the Pacific northwest, said in an in
terview that peonage is practiced in
lumber and construction camps and
on the iron ranges in Minnesota,
and in railway camps in North Da-
kota, as well as in other parts of
the country. He added:
Il found more cases of peonage
in Minnesota in four days by my
own efforts, unaided, than I did in
all my Investigations in the south
with the aid of the department of
justice, which offered every assis-
tance while 1 was making inquiries
in the southern states. The most
common form is for the employer
to advance money to the men for
transportation or other purposes,
and then force them to repay it,
obliging them to work at low wages.
In some instances force was used to
intimidate the men, while in others
even the police and the courts were
used"

MANHATTAN SHOW
GREAT ACTIVITY
Especial to the Bonanza. }


MANHATTAN, Sept. 15.-High
grading in Manhattan has been car
ried on from the inception of the
camp and the detecting of the
thieves verifies the belief that the
authorities have entertained, that
an organized gang has been operat-
ing in the camp, and they have all
the suspected parties under surveil-
lance and will prosecute their ut
most endeavors to punish these if
they can be caught with the goods
on them.
Such outrages should not be per-
mitted in the state of Nevada and
the sooner they are brought under
the weight of the law and a few of
them are behind the bars of the
states prison the safer mine owners
will feel and the more they look for
high grade ore.
No sooner do these high grade
thieves ascertain the whereabouts OF
mine with rich ore in than they
bring the mechanism of their or.
ganization into action.
The Dexter company has been sys
tematically robbed for a long time
of high grade and should now tak'
the initiative and prosecute this lat
est thlevery and the perpetrator
should be dealt with accordingly. a

ningham claims, and that he was
seeking evidence to defeat the fl
ings. The letter contains other
words, said, Mr.. Taft, which leaves
no doubt of CLAWS zeal to convict
yourself and others. 'He did not
give me the benefit of the informa-
tion which he had secured, as he
claimed, which would have thrown
any light on the transactions show
ing them to be inconsistent with
your impartial attitude" the pres
ident said.
Taft reviews the appointment of
Ballinger as commissioner of the
general land office in March, 1907,
by Roosevelt, his resignation in
March, 190S his acceptance as at
torney for one Of the Cunningham
coal claimants while at Seattle; his
visit to Secretary Garfield and Com
missioner bennett on behalf of the
client, for which he received $3.50
and travelling expenses, and Ballin-
gers subsequent appointment as sec
retary of the interior by Taft in
March, 1909. The letter goes on
to say that CLAWS sought to draw
an inference that Balliinger had
acted improperly since becoming
secretary of the interior and had
used his influence to interfere with
CLAWS in his efforts to defeat the
Cunningham claimants.
Taft said that the record over
whelmingly establishes Ba1linger
from the time he entered upon his
duties as secretary, as having de-
clined to have anything further to
do with the Cunningham claims,
and that CLAWS charges are not
sustained by the evidence.
Taft grants Ballinger's request for
authority to discharge CLAWS from
THE service of the United States for
disloyalty to a superior officer in
making false charges and unjustly
impeaching the integrity of his SUI
periors. Taft also refers to news
paper charges that Ballinger is In
sympathy with the water power
trust, and declares that the charges
are cruel injustice to the secre-
tary. He concludes with the words:
'I am able to say that you are fully
in sympathy with this administra'
ton in its attitude in favor of con
servation of the nations natural re
sources"
