retary Pierce in August last. 1t ap-
peared from these that Senator Gug-
genheim had asked tc have certain
lands at La .Tunta, Colo, set apart as
made under the supervisory power as
with water power sites. Mr.. Ballinger
directed that The withdrawal be made.
What is an arid park p" asked
Senator Root.
Il don't know"
Maybe it IS the same as a dry
town." suggested Representative Ohm
stead.
Mr.. Garfield next was examined as
to the plan he adopted of cooperating
with water users associations as to
reclamation projects and the issuance
by him of reclamation certificates
which came TO be known as Garfield
currency
The certificates were given as evil
dences of work done on projects, the
certificates to be turned in in pay
ment of water charges when water was
delivered on the land.
Secretary Ballinger, acting under an
sham, stopped this practice.
Opposed to Bond Issue.
Mr.. Garfield charged that neither
Mr.. Wickersham nor President Taft
had the facts and complete informa-
ton before them on which to base a
proper decision as to the certificates
The witness was asked if the $S0,000,-
OUV ISSUE u JULIUS ACCOAuAAACAA0C0 W
President Taft was not made necessary
to relieve hardships growing out of the
cooperative plan. He declared the
proposed issue of bonds would cover a
much wider field of reclamation than
that begun under his administration of
the interior department.
I'm fact" declared Mr.. Garfield,
much to the surprise of the commit
tee, 'I don't believe it is necessary to
issue any bonds at ALL
But aren't there hardships growing
out of the present status of the pro-
ject?' asked Senator Sutherland.
''In individual cases, yes: They re-
suit from failure on the part of entry
men to appreciate the difficulties of
developing irrigated lands and from
their going on the land long before the
projects could be completed and wa
ter turned on. They were constantly
warned against doing this and went at
their own hazard. The government is
not responsible for their plight"
Mr.. Garfield said he was not certain
that a bond issue, as now proposed,
would hurry up the projects to proper
completion any faster than would be
possible under the old way of raising
funds by the sale of public lands.
MANY of the projects are expert
mental" said the witness, land it is a
serious question as to whether it would
be wise to go faster than the sale of
land allows. Physically, the projects
could be completed at a much earlier
date by a bond issue, but 1 doubt if it
would decrease the cost"

Ball Park.

Philadelphia, Pa, March 10.-A
crowd estimated at 10000 persons
went to the National league baseball
park this afternoon despite the an
nouncement to the effect that a mass
meeting called by the general strike
committee would not be permitted.
There was no disorder of consequence
in the vicinity of the park, the gates
of which were kept closed.
Trouble threatened, however, when
it became definitely known that there
was to be no meeting and the masses
began to congregate on Broad street
for the return towards the center of
the city.
At 1 o'clock the crowd filed Broad
street for six blocks, north from Col
umbia avenue just at that time c.
o. Pratt, the leader of the striking
carmen, with other leaders of the
general strike rode UP Broad street
in an automobile. Way was made
for the automobile and the crowd,
cheering, fell in behind and marched
to the park.
There the marchers encountered a
strong force of police, who began
turning them back.
Pratt and the carmen's counsel got
as far as the ball park gates in their
machine and formally demanded ad-
mittance. When this was refused they
entered a protest with the police and
returned to the city followed by the
crowd.
