INQUIRY COMES TO
VERY SUDDEN HALT
House Committee Said to Lack
Evidence to Back Up Con-
troller Bay Charges.

Special to The Tribune.
WASHINGTON, July 22.-The Con-
troller bay investigation has aPpaT-
emily subsidized. The committee has ad-
iourned subject to call of Chairman
Graham. All the principal witnesses,
including "Dick" Ryan, Asbum Brown
and Miss Abbott have been discharged
with the understanding they may be
recalled later, and those who insti'
tuted the investigation are authority
for the statement that the committee
will not resume hearings before Octo-
her They also proclaim that when the
committee meets again, 1T VIII treat
the Controller bay affair as mere IN
cidept 10 a greater and broader lnyes-
jigation than was originally intended,
one which they advertise as being
'sloadcd with moro dynamite than the
Cunningham case These men are
also authority for the statement that
Miss Abbott will never be called as
witness in the Controller bay case,
II was learned from Chairman era
ham TODAY that Lawyer Brandeis, VINO
is to act as counsel for the committee
when it reassembes. is not to be paid
by congress, but is to receive his com
pensation from outside parties, Their
identity Graham would not disclose,
a Washington dispatch 10 the New
York Tribune, discussing the collapse
of the Controller bay investigation,
SAYS;
.'There are couple of reasons and
feigned one for the cessation of ac-
tivity and explosion of the fake.
''Despite the secrecy with which
President Taft has endeavored to guard
his answer to the Controller bay
charges, supplying information called
for in the PoindeXter resolution, ii is
apparent that the house comittee OBJ
rnined an intimation of the conclu-
siveness of the president 6 refutauon
of tho fake story concerning the al
legged ControlIsr bay grab. The com
mjttee suddenly developed an aggra-
waited case OF cold feet.
'tThose who have watched the des
perate efforts Of the committee to boil
ster up the fake Dick to Dick post
script. can best explain the explosion,
The incentive for the sudden abandon.
ment OF the investigation doubtless is
due Secretary Fisher S gentle but eff
fective hint that the department stands
ready 70 prosecute for perjury any
witness who swears falsely at the in
qulry. II has been apparent for days
that the committee could NOT substsn-
tiate under oath the reckless charge
made.
'"Still another reason for abandon
mept is the appointment of Represen
tstive Burke To the committee, in
which that keen and alert statesman,
Chairman Graham, found moro than
his match
''of course the growing indisposition
Of Miss NJ F. Abbott, the star wit
ness. to swear to the accusation she
has made, embarrassed the committee
and prompted its Democratic manipu-
lators 10 halt proceedings for while. -

OUTBREAKS DUE To
SYSTEM IN MEXICO
Many of the Mayors Appointed
by Diaz Still in Office; Peace
to Come Soon.
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, July 22-Comment-
ing today upon the continuance of tur~
bulence after an apparently successful
revolution, distinguished Mexican res
ident of this city declared that condi.
tions were peculiar to his own country
and were not at all understood in
America. The great mass Of the people
had no quarrel with the federal govern
ment, that was too far removed from
them, and about national issues they
cared little
represented by the local mayors aud
magistrates. with whose appointment
they had nothing to do and with whom
them were not IN sympathy Frequent.
~. 1T was said, these officials were
guilty OF the greatest abuse of power.
lnfllcting heavy punishments upon the
natives for insignificant offeuses and in.
frnging upon their rights of privacy
TO such an extent that the peon be
came exasperated beyond restraint.
When this found expression it was
soon developed that the federal gov.
ernment, which had appointed these
officials. stood behind them with all OF
ITS strength, hence it was only natural
that purely local revolt against some
unpopular official inevitably resolved
itsel If into revolutionary movement
against the government in the City OF
Mexico.
Applying this reasoning to the pres.
ent conditions. it was pointed out that
many of the jafes politico, or MAYORS,
originally appointed by the Diaz gov.
ernnent, were still kept in office, and
when 1T was against their adminstra
tion that most of the violence was di-
rected. 1t was to be expected that
when the change Of local governments
is completed and the people are able to
place their own selections in Office,
there Will be m end of all trouble

ROOSEVELT WRITES
ON ALASKAN MATTER
Declares Two Factions TO Be Re-
sponsible for Retarding
Development.
By A ssociated Press.

NEW YORK, July 22.-Thcodore
Roosevelt has an article on the devel.
opment of Alaska in today's issue OF
the Outlook He declares two factors
to be responsible for retardlng progress
in this direction, "great capitalists VINO
wished to develop Alaska by making
enormous fortunes for themselves out,
side of and in defiance of the law and
the congressman who "under pretense
Of hostility TO the corporations decline
to permit the passage of Legislation
which will enable them TO do their
work honestly and to develop the coal
while doing justice TO others
Referring specifically to the Con
troller bay case, Mr., Roosevelt says:
In this connection / wish also to
call attention to the essential fact as
regards the Controller bay situation
Controller bay, under actual conditions
offers the only chance-or at any rate
very much the best chance-for
free outlet from the great Bering river
coal fields. It was the comparative
duty of the government service to keep
this outlet free aud not to dispose of
it to any individual or individuals
The government should have held this
land in perpetuity, permitting It's use
by any individual or corporation only
under conditions that would subserve
the general public interest,
Unfortunately, the interior depart,
ment last October eliminated from the
government reserve not only the 800
acres, the elimination of which was mis-.
takenly recommended by the agricul'
tural department, but 1880 acres.
Whether there was or was not impro-
priety in the way in which the elimi-
nation was brought about. whether or
not there was impropriety in the &C.
tion which resulted in the instant FIJI.
ing Of claims by Mr.. Ryan and others,
does not 90 to the root of the mat
ter. The root of the matter is that no
such elimination should have been
made by the interior department The
public interest demanded that this land
should be kept under public control,
and that to prevent monopoly its use
should be permitted only under such
conditions as the public need required.
Remember always that such action
would not have hindered development; !;
1t would have favored development, for
it would have enabled any honest cor
poration to come in and do its part in
developing the country without fear of
being crowded out by some other cor.
poration, which through unwise govern
ment action might obtain monopolis.
tic right, 1t is absolutely essential to
the proper development Of our water
ways within the United States, and it
is essential TO the proper DEVELOPMENT
of the Alaska coal fields -

SPRING DEPARTMENT
OF the Plant of the Ameri-
can Steel Company to
Be Operated.

Charleston, w. Va. March At a
special term OF the federal court held
today Judge Dayton entered a decree
closing all the plant of the Independent
Steel Company of America, at Kenova
except the spring manufacturing shop,
which will be allowed to operate. The
decree modifes the order recently en-
tered at Richmond Va, appointing re-
ceivers and authorizing them to issue
receivers certificates to the amount of
$2O,O 900. Under the new court order
such certificates can only be issued to
the amount Of IS 600 and if the spring
department of the plant is shown not to
be a paying proposition, it will be closed
also.
In court today the receivers, E. +.
Williams and III. Q. Duncan filed a
brief report, recommending that the
spring department be allowed to oper-
ate but recommending that the other
departments close down They stated
they had operated the spring plant for
three days at a profit of $500.
The receivers report gave as the rea.
son for the failure of the plant in gener-
al that there was insufficient working
capital that it would be necessary to
have $4,000 working capital and
credit to the amount of S2OO, 900: that
not extend such credit. They further
reported that the spring shop could be
operated with a working capital of
20, ,0O0 and credit to the amount of
$40, 600; and that such credit would be
extended by dealers in raw materials.
Based upon this report tho decree was
entered allowing the issuance Of GER
tifcates to the amount OF IS, 900. When
that capital is used up if 1t appears that
the plant does not pay, all department,
will be closed.
In passing upon the case. Judge Day
! ton stated that il was his intention in
| entering the order, appointing the re-
| ceivers to provide that the pay rolls
should be taken care of, that he believ-
| ed the laborers should be paid their
money But as it turns out, they
will have TO abide until the matter pro-
ceeds further.
March 10 the affairs of the company
will be passed upon by Judge Keller be-
fore whom petition hes been filed by
the unsecured creditors to declare the
company bankrupt. Should the com.
pany then be declared bauhrupt oil pro.
ceedings to date would be set aside.
Representing the company today
were the two receivers, Attorneys Paul

Pittsburg. Representing the creditors

any part of the pinii. were Attorneys
