DECISION IN
BURLEY CASE
Federal Judge Cochran Holds That
Original Petition Fails to Show So
ciety's Operations Subject TO In
terState Law.

Over year ago suits were filed by
independent tobacco manufacturers
against Clarence LeBuS and the
Bmley Tobacco Society.
The plaintiffs asked damages tot
aHng 1868, 233, this amount repre-
senting three-fold the damages which
they allege they have suffered. The
companies in the suit are: Clark &c
Scott of Scranton. Pa; Frismuth
Brothers of Philadelphia, Lowell &
Burlington of Covington, Ky, and the
f. O. Eshelby Tobacco Company Of
Cincinnati.
The plaintiffs alleged that Ken
lucky tobacco is required for manu-
facturers in Virginia, Pennsylvania.
New York, New Jersey, Illinois, Mis-
souri,. Louisiana and other States of
the Union, and that it would thereby
become commodity of interstate
commerce.
The plaintiffs purchased S4,0O5
pounds of the 1906 crop of white bur-
ley and 372, 40 pounds of the 1907
crop of white hurley, for which the
society exacted a price of 1898
cents per pound for the 1907 crop
when it is alleged to have been worth
only S.2S1 cents per pound.
Federal Judge Cochran at Coving-
ton holds that the original petition
fails to show that the society's oper-
ations are subject to the provisions
of the interstate law. Leave to file an
amended petition is granted, but the
time in which this must be done has
not been fixed.
The defendants were represented
by Senator w @. Bradley, Pendleton,
Bush & Bush of Winchester, Ky, and
7. l.. Edelen and John II. Allen.

HAS APPEALED
TO PRESIDENT
Former Forester PinchOt Seeks to Pre-
vent Recommendation of Patenting
Cunningham Alaska Coal Land
Claims.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-Ex-
pressing the fear that the Interior
Department will recommend the pat
enting of the Cunningham Alaska
coal lands claims, which he believes
to be fraudulent, Clifford Pinchot,
former Forester of the United States,
has appealed to the President to al
low him TO submit a brief before any
such action is given executive APP
proval. Mr.. Pmchot has written Il
letter to the President under the date
of November Z in which he says:
at is unfortunately impossible to
look with confidence to the officials of
the Interior Department for an un-
biased judgment in this matter. 1t is
clear that the protection of the pub
lie interests in these Alaskan coal
lands must depend strictly upon the
President himself"
Secretary Ballinger's connection
with these claims which have been
agitating the Interior Department
since he was Commissioner of the
Land Office, precipitated the social
ed Ballinger-PinchOt controversy and
the Congressional inquiry of the In
terror Department and the Forest
Service which resulted therefrom.
The letter also bears the signature
of the former FOrester's brother,
Amos Pinchot. 1t was given out
Monday by Mr.. Pinchot for publica-
ton.
Secretary Ballinger issued a state
ment in which he declared that Who'll
ly unfounded charges had been
spread broadcast involving the atti-
tude of the Departments officers to-
ward these cases, and that In view ct
these conditions he "deemed it of the
highest Importance that all these cas-
es be transferred from the jurisdic
ton of the General Land Office, di
rectly to the Court of Appeals of the
District of Columbia for considera-
ton and adjustment"
He indicated that he would recon-
mend Congressional authorization Of
this transfer in his annual report.
Mr.. Ballinger added that for sever
al months, of his own violition, thes 2
eases had been placed under the spc-
cial direction of the President with
the view that no action should be
taken without the special sanction
of President Taft.
