expressed to Sir Edward Grey, Sec

"Sir: My government instructs me
to express to you, and through you to

sincere and profound sympathy of the
president, the government and the
people of the United States in the

London, May 9.-Although the king
died at 11:45 at night the public gen.
orally was not informed until lis in
the morning, when the huge bell in
ST. Paul's tolled its sonorous message
to the people. In the deserted streets
the "bobbies" stood with hands to the

destrians knew what this meant and
invariably uncovered as they passed
simultaneously with the sixty-eight
strokes tolled by the cathedral bell,
the number of the kings years, win
dows were thrown open and house
holders inquired of the police and
passersby for confirmation of the sad
news. There was little sleep iI Lon

Scene AT LAND
OFFICE PROBE
Ballinger Denounced by Wit
ness for CLAWS.
GREAT CONNECTION CAUSED

Horace r. Jones, Special Agent for the
Land Office, Arises in His Seat
Among the Spectators While the
Secretary Is Testifying and Loudly
Asserts That the Statements Being
Made Are False.
Washington, May 9.-The cross-ex-
animation of Secretary Ballinger by
Attorney Louis d. Brandeis was pro-
ceeding with but momentary renewals
Of the frequent bitter clashes of the
previous day before the Ballinger-Pin-
chot investigating committee when
there developed the most spectacular
incident of the hearing.
Horace T. Jones, special agent of
the land office, who testified some
time ago in support of Louis r. CLAWS,
arose in his place among the spec
tators and announced in loud voice
that he did not believe a statement
made by Secretary Ballinger was true
and that he desired that a witness be
called to substantiate or deny what
Mr.. Ballinger had said.
The statement had to do with Jones'
ability as an agent and was attributed
by Secretary Ballinger to Special
Agent r. w. Dixon.
When the commotion in the com
mittee room following Jones' interrupt
tion had subsided Senator Root de-
manded that the witness be admon-
ished that repetition of his outburst
would subject him to punishment for
contempt.
