Washington, Jan. 5.-A resolution
looking to the investigation of the
general land office and the forest SER
Vice, growing out of the differences
between Ballinger and Pinchot, was
introduced today in both houses of
Congress, and while neither was act
ed upon, 1t. is understood they will be
adopted by both houses in the next
few days and the inquiry will soon
begin.
The house devoted the entire day to
a discussion of Mann's bill for a re-
organization of the government of the
Panama canal zone, and finally passed
it. The bill places the entire admin
istration, in the hands of the president
and abolishes the canal commission.
The Democratic members bitterly
fought the blu, saying they did not be-
lieye that Congress had the power to
confer legislative power on the presi-
dent. The bill authorizes the presi-
dent to have the canal completed and
appoint a director general of the canal
and canal zone. 1t Invests judicial
power In one circuit court and such
inferior courts as the president may
constitute. 1t allows appeal to the
United State supreme court in civil
