EIGHTEEN
HOUR FLYER
IS HELD Up
Especial TO TIE T1MEs.l

Indiana Harbor, Ind. Sept. 2S.-The
eighteen hour flyer on the Pennsylvania
was delayed thirty five minutes near
Indiana Harbor yesterday afternoon.
The delay was caused by the Pennsyl-
vania local which leaves Chicago at
2:10 and is due in Indiana Harbor ahead
of the fer. The former had been de-
layed, however. and was making up
time in an effort to get into Indiana
Harbor ahead of the flyer, but failing
in this was obliged to get off the main
track in order TO give the eighteen
hour train a chance to pass it between
Whiting and Indiana Harbor.
In leaving the track the train was
derailed, thus blocking the way and
causing the delay of thirty five minutes
to the flyer. while the local itself was
an hour and a half later than its sched-
ule into the Harbor.

The Senate Committee on Public
Lands has come to the rescue of
Speaker Cannon, by adopting a joint
resolution for the Senate providing
for the appointment by the Vice
President and Speaker of committee
to Investigate the Ballinger- Pinchot
controversy, agreeing that it shall be
considered substitute for the House
resolution providing for the selection
OF the committee by the members of
the House. 1t remains to be seen
what opposition will come from the
nsurgent. Senators, but it is likely
they will attempt to amend the reso-
luton to have it conform with that of
the House providing for election of
the committee. The public will care
little about the manner in which the
committee of investigation is APP
pointed, so long as it is made up of
honest, impartial men, whose charac-
ter will not admit of suspicion of
white-washing, which seems to be
feared by some. The investigation
must be open and thorough, SO that
