St. Louis Gets
The Tournament

DETROIT, Mar. 12.-St. Louis was
awarded the 1911 tournament and the
old list of officers and members of the
executive committee with a few ex-
ceptions were reelected at the annual
meeting of the American Bowling con-
gress today. On the alleys, another
day passed without a change in the
leadership of any Of the three squads.
In the individual event, Nick Hess of
Aurora, Ills, was the star. He tied
Max DrosSman of Detroit and John
Kolde of Cincinnati for sixth place
with GAL.
Two or tire minor changes were
made in the slate of officers, but the
incumbents were practically all re-
elected.
Following is a partial list of officers
elected: president, Robert H. Bryson,
Indianapolis; secretary, A. L. Lantry,
Milwaukee; treasurer, Frank L. Pas
deloup, Chicago.

draWalS.
Attorney Pepper read to Mr.. Davis
several statements contained in let
ter written by Mr.. Ballinger to Presi-
dent Taft on November Is, 1909, in
reply to charges made by Messrs.
Garfield and Pinchot. One stated Mr..
Garfield had been enormously advised
by officers of the reclamation service.
The witness said he knew of no such
erroneous advice. Another statement
of Mr.. Ballinger's letter as read by
Mr.. Pepper follows:
the Withdrawals made by Mr..
Garfield were generally in pursuit of a
theory that the executive was vested
with power to do any and all things
which, in his judgment, might be
proper to be done in the absence Of
specific constitutional or executive
prohibition and did not truthfully
show what they were made for, where
as the Withdrawals that have bJen
made during my incumbency have
shown what they were made for, or
have been accompanied by the express
declaration that they were to enable
congress to adopt legislation in re-
gard thereto. I have not adopted any
subterfuge in this respect"
us it true, Mr.. DAVIS, that the with
drawals made by Mr.. Garfield did not

James M. Fer-Don,

better known as the Great Fer-Don, -
who has been for the past year located
in Oakland and Seattle, has arrived
at last and is stopping at the State
Hotel, Walla Walla This young man
in many respects proved a different
parsonage than one imagined. He has
q pleasant and attractive appearance
and exercises in his surroundings a
magnetic attraction, While his manner
is quiet and unassuming. His dark
hair is tinged with gray, his blue eyes
sparkle with interest when he speaks,
and they seem to penetrate, as though
searching the hidden recesses of the
body where diseases may be lurking,
and his action indicates that he is
deeply impressed with the serious ma
ture of his calling and the great re-
sponsibility he has assumed. When
seen by a newspaper reporter he ex
pressed himself as being glad to have
the opportunity to visit Walla Walla
and making the acquaintance of the
people. He anXiously inquired into
the condition of health prevailing in
this city and surrounding community

as unknown
Two Italians came here from Spo-
kane today and identified the bodies
of Pasquale Bruno, Michael Guglielmo
and Luigi Guimanesti of that city,
members of party of seven laborers
bound from Spokane to Burlington,
Wash All seven were killed. John
Tosti's body had previously been iden-
titled.
One of the unidentified was a man of
IS, with wavy gray hair and Scotch
features, and weight about $50 pounds.
Another body is that of a handsome
man between % and 35, with sandy
hair and mustache. The body tagged
johnson" is apparently that of a rail-
road man, He was tall and slim, with
sharp features and much gold in the
teeth in front. Attaches of the cor
oner's office expect the number of
dead to exceed 100.

truthfully snow what they were made
for?" Attorney Pepper asked
"Mr Garfield, in the orders he gave
the reclamation service, clearly indi-
Gated for what the Withdrawals were
to be made. If there was any appear
ance of subterfuge at any time it was
my fault and not his. 1 don't think,
however, that anything was done that
can be fairly termed subterfuge."
Mr.. Pepper then read an extract
from a letter written by Mr.. Pinchot
to President Taft on November last
in which Mr.. Pinchot highly praised
the reclamation service and pointed
out warningly that the director of the
service apparently had lost the sup
port of Secretary Ballinger.
Mr.. Pepper then read from Mr.. Bal
fingers letter to the president the
following:
BaIIinser Supports Reclamation.
1.-THE statement that the reclamation
service had lost the support of the
secretary is without foundation, as is
also the further statement that it is in
danger of disintegration through any
act of commission or omission on my
part
Mr.. Pepper then requested the wit
ness to detail various interviews he
had had with Mr.. Ballinger regarding
changes in the service.
Mr. Davis said during the early part
of March, 1910, it was repeatedly re-
ported in the newspapers that the
service was to be reorganized and that
Director Newell was the man to be
eliminated

Post complains strongly Of the lack

Schiff are on the warpath and ac-
cuse Great Britain of intriguing with
Japan against the United States.
I'm plain Words says the article,

suicidal and unnecessary. If Sir Ed
ward Grey had told Japan that she
must play the game and cease the
policy of grab in Mongolia, his rec
ommendation would almost certainly
have availed."
The Post contends that it will be
a bad day for Great Britain when the
Anglo japanese alliance leads her in
to a dependence on Japan and if a
quarrel with the United States is
added to the existing trouble the sit
uation will be serious.

the Post, San alliance on equal terms

the Monaghan railways may define
our position in the Pacific for many
years. Let us hope that wise coun-
sci will yet prevail in Downing
