REORGANIZATION OF
RECLAMATION SERVICE.
Three Hour Conference Between Pres

Summer White HouSe---NeWe|I
Not to Remain as Director.

Beverly, Mass, July 5.-The re-or-
ganiZation of the reclamation service
was discussed at three hour confer
ence between President Taft and Sec
retary of the Interior Ballinger here
today Although no official information
could be obtained it was freely report
cd i'll Beverly tonight that the future
plans for reclamation would not in
clude the retention of Frederick H.
Newell as the director of that service.
Mr.. Ballinger would not discuss this
phase of the situation in any way. 1t
is known, however, that the secretary
long has regarded Mr.. Newell as inim-
ical to his plans for the reclamation
service. Mr. Newell has openly oppos-
cd Mr.. Ballinger and Mr. Ballinger in
turn has publicly stated that he did
not regard Mr. Newell as the man for
the place occupied by him.
lust when and how Mr.. Newell is
going could not be learned. Secretary
Rallinger left for Washington tonight.
He Hill remain there a few days and
then will start on long trip through
the West during which he will visit
a number of Indian reservations and
probably look over some of the recla-
nation projects now under way. His
trip, including brief rest at his home
in Seattle. will occupy from six weeks
to two months.
When Secretary Ballinger alichted
from the train here this morning he
was met by the usual crop of resigna-
ton rumors. II am not a quittrr." he
said. "and never have been. 7 did not
bring a resignation with me and will
not leave one behind"
After he had lunched and conferred
with the President, Mr. Rallincer was

Fcve-ly. Mass. July 5.-There were
no developments in Beverly today con-
cerning .he supreme court vacancies.
Callers at the summer White House
found nothing in the Presidents atti-
tuue to change the statements of yes

York is Just now filling Mr.. Tafts eye
to the exclusion of everybody else.
Tho understanding also continues
ttat the President will do nothing to-

Chief Justice Fuller until late in the
fall. A proposition to call the Senate
in an extraordinary session to CONFIRM
appointees to the supreme court bench
in advance Of the regular session of
Congress was suggested today. but met
with no encouragement.
The big Trust" cases affecting the
Standard oil and American Tobacco

his retirement from the bench will

Mr.. Moody may take advantage of the
full period designated in the enabling
act passed in his behalf. This Is re-
sarded as another argument against
the nror ,sec extra session.
President Taft in common with the
remaining justices of the supreme
co"rt. is anxious that the three i'm
portant cases scheduled for re-argu-
ment this fall-the Standard Oil. to-
bacco and corporation tax-shall be
heard by a fun bench. Consequently
it is not regarded AS likely he will
