DAMAGING EVIDENCE,
Declares Secretary Asked Him "a
Withhold Action After Election.

hM4p&9 &4Gb4u1 A4gCk 1&SCb4O0s
Washington. SpeciaI.-The joint
Senate and House committee met
last Thursday and began the Bal
Iinger-Pinchot investigation. L. R.
CLAWS, former chief of the field d.
vision of the general land Office, was
the FIRST witness. He alleged that
Ballinger overturned RooseYelt's con-
servation policies and favored the
"~mterests,'' rather than the public
and had an indirect part In the
Alaska coal frauds, etc. Pinchot is
charged with running the forest SER
vice to personal ends, yillifying the
Interior Department, etc. The in
vestigation is expected to be the big
gest overhaulment of the government
since ventilation of the postofice
scandal seven years ago. The ses-
sion will be held on Friday and Sat
urday.
The proceedings In the Ballinger-
Pinchot injury took on a livelier as
peet when Louis R. CLAWS, continu-
ing his testimony against Secretary
Ballinger, told of various interviews
he had had with the Secretary of the
Interior at various times while he
was in and out of the government ser
vice.
Mr.. CLAWS declared that in one of
these interviews in October, 1908.
Mr.. Ballinger told him he was having
a hard time trying to collect cam
paign contributions and that two men
involved in the Cunningham claims,
who had been liberal contributors in
the past had declined to contribute
because they were angry at not be-
ing granted patents for the Alaska
| coal lands.
CLAWS said that Mr.. Ballinger ask
| ed him to hold up on the Alaska cases
until after election. He agreed to
do this because he had his hands full
with another case.

INSURANCE FRAUDS
Agents Arrested in louisville,
KY, for SwindIing.
LARGE NUMBER ARE INVOLVED
Physicians Said to Have Filled Out
Certificates without Seeing Per-
sOns Named IN Them

Louisville, KY, Special-ohn =.
Keane, p. J.. Needham and I. !.
OLear, agents for a number OF IN
surance companies in Indiana, Ten
nessee, Kentucky, and other States
have been arrested or warrants
charging them with conspiracy to de-
fraud. The warrants were sworn u
by S. C. Renecke, secretary and treas
urer of the Indiana National Life
Insurance company,
While the amount involved is not
stated, it is said to reach $20O,0OO
in policies alleged to have been writ
ten on the lives of persons virtually
certain to die within a few months.
The fraud consisted In the imperson-
alton Of sick and ineurable persons
by healthy ones employed for the
purpose. Z
1t is said that the affair involves
in one way or another more than 90
persons and relates to fradulently
obtaining 1116 luSuIdACO POAASASS ~
the value Of 100000.
It is also said that many persons
are involved in the affair. One
physician has, it is said, admitted
that he acted as a participant In a
conspiracy by filling out medical GER
tihcates asserting that men and wo-
men he had never seen were IN good
health and constituted good insurance
risks. In many cases, however, 1t Is
believed the physicians were impos-
ed upon.
The ease was taken up upon the
life insurance companies of Indiana
and Tennessee who are said to be
large losers by reason of "grave
yard" swindlers. These companies
which it is alleged have already paid
$1O,OG0 on policy issued in the Rider
case are excluded from business In
this State, yet it is said, have been
doing business in Indiana. The
scheme is to a-certain extent an old
one. Merely choosing a man OF
athletic build for examination and
substituting the medical report for
that of a person Of short life expec-
fancy.
Rider it is learned. carried policies
Of his life aggregating $4,000, but
none of his relatives is named as
beneficiary. Mrs. Mary Quill, e sister
and Lewis Rider, a brother, made
afidavits several days ago that they
believed their brother came to his
death by poisoning and that he was
a victim of foul play. The family
communicated with a life insurance
company in Tennessee and the mat
ter was taken up in Louisville, by
a representative of that company and
three Indiana companies. Upon these
representations Acting Coroner
Dascher ordered the body exhumed.
After discovering the lesion in the
lung, the stomach was removed and
turned over to chemists for analysis.
When Keane, Needham and
O'Leary were arraigned in police
court their bail was reduced to
$1,000 each on motion of their attor-
neys. The case was then postponed
until February 8.

MEAT YEARS OLD FOUND

Fishermen, farmers, cattle-raisers,

are up against it, just the same as the
public. We have on storage here

the daily wages Of one Of his men for
every barrel. Of apples sold. He
bought the apples for about $3,a bar
rel and will sell them for about Sc.
Storage charges are fifty cents a bar
rel, so his profit is $3.50. It's the
same way with those beets, turnips
and other vegetables there"
In one Of the coolest of the storage
rooms, attention was called to barrels
filled with turkeys.

"Sure; good as the day they came
here"
In another room the reporter saw
a barrel packed with geese. While
testing the frmness with which the
flesh was frozen the neck Of a goose
was snapped on as If it were a pipe
stem.
"Those geese have seen their Sec
ond birthday here" the employe re-
marked, meaning they had been in
storage for at least two years.
One Of the party asked IL tainted
meat were ever received for storage.
The reply vas that such meat was
received and frozen, the process con-
cealing the faint and making it posi-
Bile for the owner to dispose OF the
meat as a staple grade.
While housewives r being driven
by the high prices to boycott meat
here is what the Ice and Refrigeration
Blue Book says is being held in cold
storage:
$4,000, 900 cattle.
100000 calves.
25,O00,OOO sheep and lambs, So.
100000 hogs.
According to these figures from the
Official guide book circulated only
among cold storage men, there Is in
storage one entire animal for each
adult in the United States, with
enough whole animals left over to
give two to each family.

1,S00,000,000 eggs.
130,000,000 pounds of poultry.
Fruits valued at $4,000, 900.
Then, besides, there are millions Of
pounds of potatoes, onions, thousands
OF turtles, cells, cases of canned goods
and milk, butter and cheese valued
at 800, OO0, 900.
The total value of meat and food
stuffs placed in cold storage during a
year at present is, according to the
figures of the storage concerns, close
to $4,000 900, 900.
These cold storage figures do not
include the tremendous value OF

baltimore Fire in Europe.

A false report emanating from
Paris, the effect of which was that
one-half of the city of Baltimore
Md, was in ashes, was printed widely
in Germany. The loss by fire was es-
timated at $4,000, 900, and the re-
ported disaster evoked sympathetic
editorials in the newspapers, which
also in many cases reprinted the
story of Baltimore's co~nlagration OK
some years ago.
Many Americans, some OF them
from Baltimore, made anxious visits
to the American Embassy and the
newspaper offices in Berlin inquirtng
for details.
There was a fire in. Baltimore with
a loss of something like a quarter OF
a million dollars. No person was
harmed and the blaze attracted no
particular attention outside Of that
city on this side of the Atlantic
