Whether the various amendments

But as matters stand now the COM

the amendment, which provided that
the term common carrier" used IN the
law, which nov fncludes express and
sleeping car companies, shall embrace
telephone and telegraph companies

Representative Mann of Chicago, in
charge of the bill, made a fight gainst

Other important amendments adopt

"WiIfuI and DeIiber-

In HIS OWN DEFENSE
Nothing He Is Ashamed of Done
in Alaska Land Claims
Would Repeat Acts.

Washington, April 29.-Ballinger
took the stand soon after the Ballin-

launched into the direct examination.
Tells of His Career.
Baliinger recounted the story of his
career up to the time he became COM
missioner general of the land Office on
the earnest solicitation of President
Roosevelt, Secretary Garfield and Sen
ator Piles.
Replying to questions, he said he
knew of six Cunningham Alaskan coal
claimants at the time he became COM
missioner, and that he had no interest
in Alaskan. or any other lands, but that
he was the organizer of a mining COM
pany that had an interest in the gold
diggings at Nome.

He described how he reorganized
the land Office. This was followed by
a reference to Claws testimony that
he and Ballinger had talked about spe-
cific groups of Alaska coal lands. This
deliberate lie.''

He said the Cunningham land claims
were clear listed because there was no
protest in the record, and added that
he would do the same today as he did
then. He declared emphatically he
never had professional or legal bust
ness with single man listed as Cun
ningham entrymen.
Quotes Roosevelt.

Ballinger also said that, replying to
Roosevelt's request for an explanation
of his differences with Garfield, he
made report to the then president,
and that later Roosevelt said he had
embodied Ballinger's recommendations
in his annual message, and that he re-
