OF THE SECRETARY OF INTERIOR
Claims That Since Ballinger Has Been in Office He Has

WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.-President

urging the immediate consideration of

Evidently the weather man is not
satisfied with the dope" he has hand
ed out today, and to relieve Walla
Wallans of any hallucination that gen
tie springtime has arrived, he an
nounces further winter The belated
chinook arrived yesterday evening, ac-
cording to contract, and for six hours
a warm wind rapidly melted the froz-
en- snow and started the water run
ming in the cutters. However, the life
of the warm spell was short, for be-
tween 2 and 3 o'clock this morning
the mercury dropped approximately 20
degrees, and snow was the result.
Clear skies today have permitted
the first ray of sunshine enjoyed in
many weeks, and the mercury has been
driven gradually upward until the
thawing was noticeable. Indications
are for severe freeze tonight, with
continued cloudiness and probable snow
fiurries. The weather man is endeav-
oring to have the winter all in bunch
and be done with it.

The call for the conference. which

the past five years because of his

examination by the defense, he asked
that he be allowed to explain away the
that had been made against the hon.

matter how many people went over
the lands examined by him, or how
many reports were made, no fault
could be found with his recommended

because they were true. And, he con-
tended, they were just as honest as

Strange as it may seem, the United

actual physical value of a single rail

the legal basis of determining the rea-
sonableness of a freight rate was by
taking into consideration the value of
the property used in serving the public.

MEMORIAL TO EMMETT,
Irish Americans to Build Steamship
Bearing Name of Patriot.

Boston, Mass, March 16.-An UNIQUE
memorial to Robert Emmett, to be created
by the subscriptions of Americans of
Irish birth or descent, is proposed by
Miss Anna Gallagher of this city, to take
the form of a ship to bear the name of
the Irish patriot. 1t is proposed that the
craft shall be a combination of merchant
man and steamship to ply between ports
in America and Ireland for the trans
portation of Irish merchandise and pas
sengers.
Miss Gallagher and those who are asso-
ciated with her in the project intend that
the Robert Emmet shall be built in an
Irish shipyard, by Irish workmen, prob
ably Belfast, and the materials and fur
nishings to be of Irish production or man
ufacture
Laying patriotism and sentiment aside
the promoters of the enterprise hope tc
open wider market and create a more
general demand for the products and
manufactured articles of the Emerald
Isle. For three months each year the
Robert Emmet will be used for a vaca-
ton ship, enabling those who so desire to
take an ocean voyage in comparative
luxury, the promoters claim for less thar
now demanded for steerage passage by
the regular steamship lines.

second mortgage as security.
