NELSON MOVES
MEETING PLACE
Orders Ballinger Committee
to Gather in Chicago.
MEMBERS BADLY DIVIDED

Minority Assemblies in One Room at
West Hotel in Minneapolis and Ma
jority in Another and All Efforts for
Joint Session FaiI-Chairman Pre-
sides at Democratic Gathering, but
Leaves Room and Issues Ukase.
Minneapolis, Sept 10.-Using his
power as chairman of the Ballinger-
Pinchot committee, called to meet at
the West hotel, Senator Knute Nelson
adjourned the committee meeting un-
til Tuesday, Sept. 13, when the mem
bers are directed to meet in Chicago
at the Auditorium Annex hotel at 10
o'clock in the morning.
Senator Nelson was the only major
ity member present when the COM
mittee met. He presented state
ment, saying that Representative Ohm
Hted of Pennsylvania would not be
able to attend. He said that Senator
Root could not reach Minneapolis be-
fore Tuesday. He therefore asked that
the committee adjourn until next
Tuesday.
The Democratic members replied
that they were there to do business
and a quorum was present and that
they saw no reason for further delay.
Then Senator Nelson suggested that
they adjourn to meet in Chicago next
Monday, where they might meet Sen
ator Root. This proposition was also
declined by the Democratic MEMBERS
The Democratic members, including
Senators Purcell and Fletcher and
Representatives James and Graham,
were in the committee room early.
Representative Madison of Kansas,
progressive Republican, was also on
time
Absentees Invited to Attend.
Soon after the committee met the
Democratic members sent word to the
absentees, who were assembled at
room 222 in the hotel, to attend the
meeting, otherwise they would be
obliged to order their arrest and COM
pei their attendance.
This threat didn't move the ab-
sentees. They sent back word that,
il view of the action of the five mi
nority members, they would have
nothing further to do with them.
Then the Democratic members sent
word to the absent Republicans re-
questing them to attend and confer as
to course of procedure. This the
Republicans refused to do, replying
that since the Democratic members
had reached a definite conclusion and
had formulated and signed their re-
port there was nothing to confer
about.
While Senator Nelson met with the
minority members of the committee
and remained with them he and his
followers in the committee declared
that it was not committee meeting
at all. Because of lack of a quorum
they contend that the committee has
no power to act.
Shortly before noon Senator Nelson
left the committee room and half an
hour later the notice of the Chicago
meeting was served on all the men,

Home Of Mistress.
After a brief sojourn in the central
police station, Esther Carleton has re-
turned TO the home of her mistress,
Mrs. Charles H. Ritter, No 1874 Be-
thune-ave. west. There was a good
deal OF apprehension about Esther's
whereabouts after she was released
from the station.
In view OF her half-hearted attempt
at suicide and her melancholy dis
position. a great deal of alarm was
occasioned when il was announced
in the morning papers that Esther
was in all probability wandering
about the streets.
When The Times called up the Rit-
ter home. Tuesday morning, there
was no installing the Scotch accent.
II was Esther who answered the tele-
phone. but despite the fact that she
was reinstalled in the house, she
seemed to be just a bit peevish.
The morning papers are wrong
and I'm all right" said Esther soma
what savagely, as she hung the tele-
phone receiver up.
