CLAWS Attorney Tells Committee He
Asked for Documents Week Ago
Hearing Adjourned.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-The con
gIessional probe into the intricacies
OF the Ballinger.Pi episode came
temporarily 10 stop today.
After the hour of executive session,
and upon receipt of letter from Sec
rotary Ballinger II was decided to
postpone further hearings until next
Friday. Feb. IL, in order to permit
Ballinger to secure counsel 10 repre-
sent him at the hearings and cross.
examine l.. r. CLAWS.
The brief open meeting OF the com
mittee today was marked by bitter re-
marks from Attorney L. r. Brandeis,
who represents CLAWS He unspar-
ingly criticised the delay OF the in
terror department in producing certain
letters, documents and reports which
he had asked for a week ago
After the committee entered tho
crowded hearing room. chairman Mel
son had Secretary Charles Sleman
read two letters. the first to Ballinger
from Senator Nelson, suggesting the
desirability OF his being represented
by counsel
To Senator Nelson, Secretary Bal
linger replied stating that he desired
that the committee should not be ham
pefed in its investigation and II was
only because that Full investigation
is not being secured" that he had de-
termined to have counsel present He
requested that the committee postpone
hearings until Feb. IL. in order to give
him time to secure legal assistance.
After these letters had been read
Nelson was on the point OF adjoining
the committee, when Brandeis arose.
He declared he had spent three days
camping out In the corridors OF the
senate Office building awaiting the
papers, which he had asked the inter
Tor department to produce and which
Nelson had promised him an oppor-
tunity to examine.
/ Il have good reason to believe" he
commented sharply, that a large
number OF these documents are ready
and could have been submitted to me
through the committee and that they
have not been submitted for reasons
satisfactory to the interior depart
ment | think, in view OF the assur-
ance that the secretary gives us, that
he does not desire TO put any obsta.
Gle in the way of a full investigation
and that such documents as are avail
able should be submitted at once. ard
that they ought not to be kept back
had the assurance given me by the
chairman a week ago that on the day
following I might examine at least a
portion OF these. And IL has been six
days since then.
1T seems TO me therefore TO be
a matter of importance that these doc
uments have been withheld"
And the attorney sat down abruptly,
flushed with anger:
Nelson himself was testy over tho
manifest intimation that the docu-
ments had been purposely withheld.
He declared that he would have a
message written and transmitted TO
Ballipger today, requesting that the
documents be sent as soon as posi-.
BILE.

said, and after a pause added sig

marks and have them sent to the Sec

against It, both Democrats, were alb
sent.

over what they characterized the rail
reading" Of the measure without con-
sideration or opportunity to amend
It. and held a meeting in the room OF
Rep. Champ Clark, the minority lead
er. to map out the future party course
against the bill.

will then be precipitated.

Democratic member Of the committee
will file a minority report against the
bill. Spight declared that Humphrey

CAUSE OF WOE, MRS. ROWE SAYS
Woman Files Sensational Answer To
Divorce BiIl-Flatly Denies
Charges Against Her.

The contested divorce case OF Elgen
J. against Dorothy l.. Rowe will de-
velop some interesting testimony when
IL comes to trial, Judging from the
answer filed, Thursday afternoon, TO
the husbands bill for divorce.
After denying her husbands charge
OF possessing violent and ungoVelli-
able temper, Mrs. Rowe plunges into
& long list of charges against him. She
names a stenorapher employed by her
husband In Boston as the cause OF
much of their trouble She says they
we're very friendly, and It was after
his friendship for the girl developed
that his cruelty toward her started.
After a letter written by the woman
fell into Mrs. Rowe's hands. she says
her husband admitted their relations,
and promised her that they would
cease. Then, she says, he Immediately
wrote TO the girl and Mrs. Rowe also
saw this letter.
Rowe charges that his wife was too
friendly with her former husband. A.
3 Beyers, but she denies this. and
claims that the only time she ever
saw him was when he came TO see
their son. who was i'll.
Mrs. Rowe now lives In apartments
at Warren and Woodward-aves., and Is
receiving $25 per week alimony. Rowe
is a promoter of food shows and out
door amusements. His wife says he
never lived In Detroit, and has no right

From henceforth the history of this

may be driven from the field and some

only the strongest will survive and

while 1t Is perhaps true that at
the moment. on account Of the excess
OF demand over supply, new maker
might sell, for a season or two his
product at slightly higher prices than
established factories can sell the same

that this extraordinary condition car
long endure. Water will level prices
and then the maker who is cramped
for working capital or handicapped by
lack of equipment or still more seri
ously handicapped by having to pay
a parts-maker's profit on parts for his
assembled car. will be unable to sur
vive. Commercial laws are ineXor-

Detroit folk can name many men
today, millionaires or nearly SO, who
ten years ago were poor machinists
earning three dollars a day. and some
of them glad TO get a steady job even
at that. The wonderful success OF
those pioneers is the lure that attracts
many other enthusiasts TO this bust
ness. They hope to emulate the sue.

route, and that is no longer a thor
oughfare. Those who went before
closed the road behind them by build

HOBOKEN, Aug. 5.-Exciting scenes
were witnessed at the North German
Lloyd pier yesterday when the steamer
Prinz Friedrich Wilhelm sailed for Eu-
rope and about 1000 Storage passen-
gers were unable to obtain passage.
The steerage capacity of the steamer
is 1871 passengers. and in an hour this
was all taken.
Prospective passengers were seen
scurrying about the dock in an en-
deavor to get their tickets stamped,
and when 1t was discovered tina they
could not sail, they had some nice
things to say about the shipping
agents. 1t is the duty Of the agents
to issue tickets. but no guarantee Is
given by them hat the ticket will find
accommodations and the passenger has
to get the ticket stamped before en-
barking.
An hour after the vessel was due TO
leave the dock was strewn with the
luggage of the disappointed ones.
Women and children were crying Bit
terly and they were only appeased
when they learned that the company
undertook to provide for their main
tenance until the next sailing.
In the ordinary course there would
not be a steamer for a week, but ar
engagements have been made whereby
the steamer Brandeburg, from Balti-
o will take the overflow to Europe.
