WASHINGTON, D. c., NOTES

WASHINGTON.-The bureau of
mines, created at the last session of
congress as a coordinate division in
the interior department, has assumed
actual existence with George Otis
Smith, director of the geological sur
vey, acting as it's chief. Mr.. Smith
will preside over the new office in con-
junction with his duties as director of
the survey until permanent head is
appointed.
1t is estimated that the total num-
ber of immigrant aliens admitted at
all ports of the United States during
the last fiscal year reached 1,O35,545,
and increase of 263,759 over the num-
Der admitted last year. The non-im-
migrant aliens admitted, that is, those
coming to the United States temporar-
lily, only reached 145,421, which is a
falling off of 47.O2s. while the total
number of fall persons debarred dur
ing the year was 24.2OO. Last year
only 1000 were debarred.
A surprising surplus Of $9,402,432 in
the years ordinary receipts and ex-
penditures instead of the expected de-
felt; a decrease of s1.64S.337 for the
month in the public debt; $17,462,S1

of the remarkable features Of the
treasury department reports for the
fiscal year ended June 30.
The treasury department is sending
advertisements for bids for public

PRESIDENT TAFT
CONSULTS BALLIkGER
Secretary's Visit to Beverly
Believed to Have Deep
Significance.

BEVERLY, Mass.-Secretay of the
Interior Ballinger was summoned to
the summer capitol for conference
on Tuesday. Officially, he and Taft
are said to have discussed the admin
istrative features of the $20,000,000
reclamation bond issue, but authori-
tative information indicates that the
conference was of much deeper signi-
ficance. Whether or not Ballinger is
to remain in the Taft cabinet was
probably decided.
1t is certain, however, that there will
be no announcement on the subject
until after the report of the congress
sional Ballinger-Pinchot investigation
. committee is made public Colonel
Roosevelt is probably the first pro-
Pinchot supporter with whom the pres
ident has talked in regard to the con-
servation situation since the congress
sional inquiry closed. It is, therefore,
( regarded as peculiarly significant that
Immediately following the next Taft.
Roosevelt conference should come the
announcement that Secretary Ballin.
ger was summoned to talk over affairs
with the president. Furthermore, the
date comes within the 15-day period
during which President Taft has here
tofore said he would transact no bust
ness other than Of the most pressing
