bundle Of letters which passed between
Fred bennett. commissioner of the land
Office, and Mr.. Ballinger, subsequent
to the latter's retirement from the land
office In March, 1908. The attorney
read an extract from only one. which
tended to show that the Cunningham
claims were subject OF correspon-
dence between the two while Mr. Bal
linger was out Of office.
Mr.. Garfield then told of visit made
to him by Mr.. Ballinger at Mentor.
Ohio. on Sept. II, 1908. when Mr.. Bal
linger was in private life. He had
wired" said the witness, that he
wanted to see me regarding some de-
partmental matters When he arrived
Mr.. Ballinger presented TO me an affi-
davit signed by Clarence Cunningham.

been asked by friends in Seattle to
leave the affidavit.
Considered Casual Matter.
II told Mr.. Ballinger that i consid-
cred the Cunningham claims Illegal At
ter reading over the affidavit l re-
marked that 1t made no difference with
the claims. He said he had been re-
Quested to file 1t, nevertheless, and
would leave it for what it was worth.
He left with me the impression that II
was a casual matter"
.sDid he tell you he was counsel for
Cunningham"
mo, except as have indicated. 1t
appeared to be entirely casual. He also
took up with me other matters-in the
Indian bureau"
Attorney Brandeis called attention to
the fact that the Cunningham affidavit
was jacketed in binding which bore
the name of Mr.. Ballinger's law firm.
He also called attention to the testi-
mony, recently given before the COM
mittee on territories of the senate re-
garding the interest of the Guggen-
helms in the Cunningham claims. He
asked whether Mr.. Ballinger had ever
indicated to the witness that the Gug-
genheims were interested.
NO" replied Mr. Garfield.
Mr. Brandeis then read from the
Cunningham affidavit the statement
that the Guggenheims were not in any
way interested in the coal lands. This
affidavit was dated March 6, 1908. The
testimony before the senate committee
shows the Guggenheim option was TAX

NO HoNoRs FOR AMERICANS.
Diplomats and ARMY and Navy Men
Must Forego Foreign Decorations.

Washington, March 10.-American
army and navy officers, and
other officials will not be allowed to
accept decorations from foreign gov
ernments so long as Senator Shelby
Cullom, of Illinois, remains chairman of
the senate committee of foreign affairs.
He has called halt on what he be-
lieves is desire to prefer foreign to
domestic approval of their deeds
The foreign affairs committee today
decided that it will disapprove of all
applications for authority to accept
foerign decorations. 1t will approve the
acceptance of gifts, provided they are
trifes made by foreign potentates.
A subcommittee of which Senator
Root is chairman, investigated the cir
cumstances surrounding requests made
by more than 200 officials for authority
to accept foreign gifts and decorations.
AT the state department there are
wagon loads of these mementos which
have been forwarded by foreign powers
and are being held pending a grant OF
congressional authority to accept them
A bill will be introduced authorizing
the acceptance of the gifts but the
decorations will be returned to the
donors
During the seven years that Sena-
tor Cullom has been chairman Of the
foreign relations committee, only two
decorations have escaped him. On,
was the order of the Red Eagle, givel
| by Emperor William Of Germany tt
Rear Admiral McCaMa for his conspic
uous services in leading the alliet
troops to Picking during the boxer
trouble. The other was the order OF
the academy, awarded by France to c
Dewitt Wilcox in recognition of a bool
he wrote on military science.
The officials thus foiled in obtaining
the foreign decorations may accep
them after they have retired to private
life
