CONFLICTING REPORTS
ON SOUTHERN PACIFIC
Passengers Arrive, But Rumors of
Washout Come With Annul-
ment of Trains.

Conflicting reports from the scene
of the washouts on the Southern Pa
cific in Nevada and the news of an
other washOut between Winnemucca
and Battle Mountain, make predictions
as to the time of opening the line
hazardous.

ing Salt Lake at 9:23 o'clock on No 4
to which they were transferred from
the stalled trains yesterday. At the
Salt Lake offices it was stated last
night that trains Nos. 4, and TO-
which had been combined at CObre,
would reach salt Lake this morning.
At the Ogden offices of the Southern
that no train could possibly cross the
damaged track until tonight.
Advices received yesterday were to
the effect that the trains would be
run through beginning at s o'clock last
night, but another washOut yesterday
afternoon placed a different phase on
the situation.
Associated Press reports from ogden
say:
Local officials tonight hold out alb
solutely no hope of operating trains
over the Southern Pacific line before
tomorrow, and admit grave doubt of
their ability to open transcontinental
traffic over the washed out portions of
the road in Nevada before Wednesday
night or possibly Thursday morning.
Destruction Is Complete.
Reports received here indicate that
the destruction is the most complete
in years, but at headquarters tonight
il was declared that repairs could
probably permit at least partial re-
sumption of traffic over the Southern
Pacific line Wednesday. A report that
it would require a week to repair the
track was denied Local officials with
several work trains have been hurried
to the scene.
AT Union Pacific headquarters to-
night, il was asserted that there has
been no damage on lines east or the

fore the Congressional Com
mittee and Denies Statement
Made by Clifford Pinchot.

TO SENATOR D0LLIVER
Head of the Agricultural De-
partment Did Not Under
stand the Purpose and In
tent of Precious Document.
PRESIDENT TAFT'S LETTER

Washington, March 1.-The ex-
pected clash between Clifford Pilchot

over the disputed question as to
whether the secretary had given the
former forester permission to write to
Senator Deliver the letter which re-
suited in Mr.. PinchOt's dismissal,
came today before the Ballinger-Pin-
chot investigating committee.
Mr.. Pinchot declared he had dis
eussed the matter at length with
Secretary Wilson and that he under
stood his superior officer had given
him express permission to write to
Senator Deliver.
Secretary Wilson Immediately took the
stand and asserted that while he had
given Mr.. Pinchot permission to write TO
Senator DOlliVeT concerning depart
mental affairs he never did and never
would have given him permission to write
letter crticising the President of the
United States.
Under cross-examination. almost wholly
mittee, Secretary Wilson was uncertain
as to Just what had passed between him
self and the forester and became some
what mixed as to just what letters the
committeeman referred in their rapid fire
of questions. The secretary repeatedly
said he never saw or heard of the letter
Mr. PinchOt wrote until it was read in the
Senate.
What Pinchot Claimed.
Mr. Pinchot declared that he and Secre-
tary Wilson went so far as to discuss the
executive order issued by President Taft
foTbidding subOrdinates of the various de-
partments to give information to Con
gress and added that the secretary said:
You and l will have no trouble about
that order"
Admitting that his memory failed him
as to certain points. Secretary Wilson al
WAYS came back to the statement that
he never, under any circumstances, would
have given Mr. PinchOt permission to
write the letter that caused his retire

What Pinchot Claimed.
Advice Of seeretary Wilson.

The secretary said he urged Mr. Pinchot
not to carry out his purpose to blanket
a message from the President generating
BaIlinger, by sending in letter to Sena-
tor DOlliver.
But" persisted counsel for Mr.. Pin
chOt. IF Mr.. PinchOt was only to be
permitted to write about departmental
matters, how could you have thought this
letter would blanket the Presidents mes
sage?"
Il don't know that was Pinchots idea,
replied Mr.. Wilson.
Mr.. PinchOt denied that he had been
embittered by a dismissal which he con-
sidered unjUstified. He denied, also. that
there was a specific movement to dis
credit Mr.. Ballinger. He added, however,
that he and former Secretary Garfield,
CLAWS and others are concerned in a
movement for the conservation of natural
resources and that they regard Mr.. Bal

that movement

Found in Hudson County,
New Jersey.

state supreme court to compel the big

Base of Pinchot's Charge.

There was a surprising development
when Mr.. PinCEOt announced to the COM
mittee that he based his charge that
Secretary Ballinger had been guilty of
making statements to the President that
were absolutely false in three essential
particulars, not upon a letter from Mr..
Ballinger himself, but upon a letter writ
ten by ]. 7. Ronald, a former law part
ner of Mr. Ballinger, to DR.. Lyman Alb
bott
Mr. Pinchot said a copy of this letter
with a notation. was forwarded by Mr..
Ballinger to the President.
He admitted that the stree stateme nts
in the Ronald letter. which he claimed to
be false, had previously been covered by
a letter written to Mr.. Ballinger himself
to the President, in which Ballinger had
stated what the witness admitted was a
true statement of the facts.
Mr.. Pinchot said he did not attempt to
reconcile these two facts.
Conversations With the President.
Before this development the interest of
the morning session had centered in the
announcement by Mr.. PinchOt that he
would not press for a decision as to
whether or not he should be allowed to
give his version of the conversations with
