ENUMERATED
investigating Committee Removes All
Blame From Secretary In Con-
troversy With Pinchot.

Washington, d. C.-Representative
Mccall of Massachusetts presented
the majority report of the Ballinger-
Pinchot Investigating committee.
The report completely exonerates
Secretary Ballinger.
The specific charges against Balm
ger were that before the time when
he resigned as commissioner of the
general land office in March, 1908, to
take up the practice of law and his
acceptance of his present office in
March, 1909, he had acted as attorney
for the Cunningham group of Alaska
coal claimants, and that by so doing
he had violated the legal provision
that the former officer of the govern
ment shall not prosecute a claim
against the United States until two
years have elapsed; also that he had
used his knowledge acquired in the
public service in the case.
The conclusion of the majority is
as follows:
THE evidence has wholly failed to
make out a case. Neither any fact
proved nor all the facts put together
exhibit Mr.. Ballinger as being any
thing but a competent and honorable
gentleman, honestly and faithfully per-
forming the duties Of his high office
with an eye single to the public in
terest."

The best authorities in the steel
trade have admitted, both by their
words and their actions, that protec-i
ton is no longer necessary. Mr.. Car,
negie said two years ago that mot al
ton of steel is produced in the world,
at as low an outlay for labor as in
our own country" Mr.. Schwab, presi-
dent of the steel trust, told Mr.. Fricki
in 1899 that steel rails could be made
in Pittsburg for $12 a ton and sold atl
a profit in England for SIG a ton,
where they cost $40 to make. And yet
the steel trust pretends to need CON
tinued protection when the fact is that
they are parties to an International
agreement giving them rs per cent. Of
the worlds market In steel rails
this 70 per cent. being based upon theI
ability Of American manufacturers to-
undersell foreign competitors on this
continent. 1t is the fear of the gigan-l
tic power to unsettle the market WELD
ed by our steel trust that has driven
SO many British competitors into theE
protectionist camp. In a report Of the
British iron trade commission on
American industrial conditions and
competition, instances are given where
American manufacturers have dis
crifAinated against their own country
men and in favor of the foreigner, to-!

Yoronto, Ont.-A riot remarkable
for it's spontaneity and for its firece-

men, the complete wrecking of II
street cars and the shattering of the
windows of 100 more. The disturb

The mob of several thousand per.
son surged back and forth on the
principal business thoroughfares, de-
molishing every street car that came
within reach and completely tying up
traffic.
The d~isorderly scenes followed a
mass meeting at Massey hall. Two
weeks ago the Toronto street railway
installed pay-as-you-enter car on the
principal lines. Much dissatisfaction
developed over the innovation. 1t was
claimed that the cars were not adapt

Mayor Calls Mass Meeting.
Protests in writing and by personal
appeal became so numerous that May
or Geary and the board of control de-
cided to hold a public mass meeting
at which the matter could be dis
cussed.
Representatives of the street rail
way also were invited to attend. The
meeting resolved itself into a series
of fiery denunciations of the street
car company and, shortly before IL
O'Clock, broke up in disorder. The au-
dience became a mob. The first street
car that hove in sight was stopped
and reduced to a scrap heap.
