BALL|NGER.P|NCH0IR ROW
IS APPROACHING THE end

Mr.. Newell said he told Ballinge1
the giving out of such information
would have to stop or their official
relations would have to terminate.
Mr. Newell denied the accuracy OF
statements made by Ballinger in let
ters explaining his action in restor-
ing water power sites. He declared
he had done so because the reclama-
ton service had recommended 1t.
He said he protested strongly against
Throwing back all power sites.'
Attorney Pepper read from a let
ter from Secretary Ballinger to Sen
ator LaFollette on May 25, 1909, In
which he said re-withdrawals were
made after surveys of the ground.
Mr.. Newell said no new surveys had
been made, as the letters would In
dicate.
One by one the house members of
the committee began to straggle out
of the room as the hour for the
house to reconvene approached until
at noon only the senators were left.
Attorney Pepper then questioned
the witness regarding the so-called
'black tent" affair. He corroborat-
ed Mr.. Davis statement that Bal
linger had become very angry be-
cause he had written letter to E..
T. Perkins, Chicago purchasing agent
of the service suggesting that he re-
sign because he had accepted $500
a month for four months from the
Hartman railroads for advertising
lands along their lines in his "black
tent" lecture tour. Mr.. Newell said
the secretary subsequently placed
the stamp of approval on Mr.. Perkins
conduct.

New York, March 19.-John Dit
mer, a cowboy of Haines, N. D., Wis
tied Ellis Island today and identified
his fiiancee, whom he had never seen
before, by a photograph which Dit
mer's mother had sent from Ham
burg. The girl, Rosa Hemke, or
Hamburg, and the cowboy were mar

Ditmer recently wrote his mother
at Hamburg that there were no eligi-
BILE girls where he lived and asked
her to pick out a bride for him. She
sent Rosa's picture. A correspond
ence, and later the engagement, fol-
lowed.

Albany, N. Y, March 19.-Presi-
dent Taft again declined tonight to
comment in any way upon the fight
Of the republican insurgents and dem
ocrats against Cannon, and the
change adopted as to the rules COM
mittee. The president let it be
known that any statement purporting
to come from him at this time Is un-
authorized. Whatev% the president
may have to say will not be said until
after his return next Wednesday. He
does not feel sufficiently in touch
with the situation to attempt to speak
on the subject.

Washington, Mar. 19.-The "Pros-
ecution" in the Ballinger-Pinchot
investigation will be concluded next
Saturday, according to announce
ment made near the end of todays
hearing by Attorney Brandeis.
Director Frederick H. Newell, of
the reclamation service, occupied the
stand during the entire day. He
was the last of the witnesses by
which Pinchot promised to prove his
statement that Mr.. Ballinger. had
made a misstatement when he said
the reclamation service had recon-
menied the restoration of puglic
lands withdrawn under the admins
tration of Secretary Garfield.
Attorney Pepper announced today
that his case for the defense was
practically completed, although he
expected to call number of witness
es in rebuttal.
Mr.. Newell's testimony was large
ly of a corroborative nature. He
corroborated the testimony given by
Mr.. Davis of the reclamation service
concerning conferences he and Davis
had with Ballinger in March 1909,
during which the latter expressed
his opinion that Withdrawals mate
by Garfield were illegal and that he
intended to restore them. Mr.. New.
ell said he decided to dissuade the
secretary from his policy AMI pro-
tested against the secretary's un-
friendly attitude toward the recla-
nation service and particularly
against what he regarded as inspir-
ed newspaper stories in which it was
said there was to be a shake up in
the service.

Federal Supreme Court Approves
Damages for Loss Of Message.


Washington, Nov. 29.-The su-
preme court Of the United States yes
terday held the Western Union tele-
graph company liable for more than
$500 damages because the company
failed to transmit a message from De
troit Mich, to Kansas City, Mo-, af-
ter accepting it. The comapny re-
ceived 40 cents to send the message.
The Commercial milling company OF
Detroit gave the WesternUnion tele-
graph company a message there to
be delivered to a grain elevator com
pany in Kansas City, Mo. The mes
sage got as far as Chicago, where 1t
was lost. As a result the Detroit
company claimed 1t had been dam
aged $4,000 by the failure thus to
make n purchase of wheat.
The message was written on tele-
graph blank, which contained an
agreement that in case of nondelivery
the telegraph company would be Ii
able only for the amount received for
sending the message. The trial court
awarded a Judgment of several hun
dred dollars in favor of the milling
company, holding that the contract
was invalid, because it was in conflict
with a state law that regulated the Ii
ability. In the supreme court Of
Michigan it was held by an evenly
divided court that inasmuch as Con
gress had passed no law fixing the
liabilities for non-delivery it was pro
per for state to do so, and the judg
ment was affirmed. The supreme
court yesterday approved the judg
ment of the Michigan court
