FOR COMPLAINTS v. | Il
Ballinger's Secretary Made
War on Forest Service.
AFFIDAYITS ASKED FOR

Matter Brought Before Congressional
Investigators by the Counsel for Gif-
ford Pinchot-Hsad OF Interior De-
partment Reads Statement in Which
He Alleges Conspiracy to Obtain
His Removal.
Washington, May 14.-In concluding
his cross-sxamination of Secretary Bal
Hnger, Attorney Pepper, counsel for
Clifford Pinchot, introduced a letter
written by Don M. Carr, Mr.. Balm
gers private secretary, and printed as
an advertisement in the Montgomery
Times of Mount Ida, Ark, reading as
follows:
1T is suggested that as congress
probably will at an early date make
an examination of the management of
the forest service you might, with
propriety, secure such afidavits of the
character referred to in your editorial
and submit them to the committee
having charge of the investigation, of
which Hon. Knute Nelson, United
States senator, will probably be chair
man."
Secretary Ballinger said he knew
nothing about Mr.. Carr's letter, which
bore date of Jan. 3, last, but on re-
direct examination he said he had re-
ceived letter from the editor of the
paper late in December stating that
there were many complaints in that To-

Amazingly Wicked Defense"
When Mr.. Pepper asked Mr.. Balm.
ger If he did not think the "conspir-
acy" which he had referred to might
have been a defensive combination of
those who were heart and soul for a
policy to which he was known to, be
opposed Mr.. Ballinger replied:
1T was most amazingly wicked de.
Tense"
He then took from his pocket a long
resume, which he secured permission
to read and which he said would show
the existence of conspiracy to re-
move him from public office. The
resume had to do with various por-
tions of the testimony during the pres
ent investigation and concludes as fol-
lows:
1.-THE evidence introduced in the
present investigation by the so called
prosecution was all put in by the 18th
of March last and since that time evil
dence has been introduced by me be-
fore the committee. An anonymous
pamphlet has been circulated, not
withstanding the truth which has been
shown by the evidence in my behalf,
and circulated secretly and contiden-
TALLY, purporting to state what the
prosecution had shown and expressly
declining to state, any evidence intro
duced by me. Reliable information
discloses that these anonymous PAM
phlets are being distributed from the
home of Clifford Pinchot'
8Iames Pinchot for Agitation.
Mr.. Ballinger in his statement said
that Mr.. Pinchot had "acted steadily"
as an officer and a citizen to bring
about the removal of man whom he
regarded as not only an unfaithful
public servant, but also as an enemy
to the great principles of conservation.
He said Pinchot had advised CLAWS
to lay his charges before the president
and had given him a letter of introduce
tion He referred to Governor Par
dee's speech at the Spokane irrigation
congress in which he seriously IRE
flected on me-" and said it was made
after Pardee had visited with Pinchot.

move" said Mr.. Ballinger, and ad-

Mr.. Ballinger called attention to the
fact that the projected fight against
him at Spokane had been opened ac-

had been said against Garfield. +;

Johnson's work consisted of eight
rounds of boxing. His best performance
was four rounds with George Cotton.
He followed that up with three rounds
with Marty Cutler, who begged off from
further exercising. and then finished up
with one round with Dave Mills.
Today Johnson returned<to his road
work but on Wednesday he will be back
in the ring again
It was announced at the Johnson
camp today that Al Kaufman will join
the crowd Of workers at the beach in
another week and that Billy Delaney
has finally consented to supervise the
training of the champion
Johnson weighed less than at any
time since his arrival here. Before he
stepped on the scales he said he thought
he was down pretty light and this was
proved when he registered at 215
pounds.
That's a little too light for me-" he
said Il aim to fight Jeffries at from
20S to 30 pounds and I Will have to put
Oh little weight in the next few days
II am glad TO hear that Jeffries is in
good condition" he declared. That's
the way I want him to be, for when L
