 Spokane Washington, April 3.-A second investigation of the record of Richard A. Ballinger, of Seattle Wash, as secretary of the Depart ment of Interior will be ordered by the coming special session of Con- gress.
 This announcement is made today by Senator Milas Poindexter in which he makes the direct charge that the recent congressional Investigation of the Ballinger-Pinchot controversy was a prearranged vindication of Balling- CT and accused Thigh officials of the government" with using every effort to withhold documents of value to the investigators and presenting an inn partaal search for the facts.
 That an alliance between the Dem- ocrats and Insurgents in Congress having control of q majority in both houses, has already agreed upon the investigation is made plain by the Senator Statesman that the result of the recent election 'has made DOS sible complete and fair investigat on fin the department
 Senator Poindexter refers to the recent Ballinger-Pinchot investigator as rnsutficient and inconclusive."
 ssWhat the people wanted was the 4r,,th :" he says. What they got was what the majority in Congress planned a vindication, .n s' '-''
 '1 was only through long and per- sistent efforts and demand on the at torneys in the inquiries that the mos. important documents were obtained for examination.
 Tn fact the very existence of these documents were consistently deniea at first by high officials of the gov ernment and other important docu- n,ents which were exhibited were found through skillful questioning by able attorneys, to be falsely dated and otherwise misleading
 Senator Poindexter severely grilled 1the adm nistration of the Interior Department for attempting to sup press evidence.
 Senator Poindexter states that Senat \ Jones and Congressman Humt Afey both of this state intro dnced the investigation resolution in the Senate and House, who respec- lively said in substances that it was a vindication of Ballinger that they sought.

THE GOVERNMENT
HAS A SURPLUS
THE FIRST TIME IN FOUR
YEARS.
More Money Was Collected and Less
Spent than Was Expected.

Washington. D. c.. July when the
governments fiscal year closed yester-
day the federal treasury held a cash
surplus of at least s33.OOO.O0O and
showed an excess OF receipts over dis
bursements for the first time since
1907
While the revised returns, showing
the governments exact financial condi-
ton, will not be available for several
days, from such figures as are at hand
and such estimates as the treasury Of
ficials consider reliable, 1t is apparent
that the government in the last twelve
months received from all sources not
less than s6S9. .OOO, 900. about $4,000, ,OOC
more than was expected and spent
s656.OOO.O0O. or about S6,OOO,OOC less
than planned.
For the first time the income from
internal revenue and customs was
nearly equal. While the customs re-
ceipts for the year fell $2O,OOO,60O and
will stand at about 1912. .000.0 900, the in
ternal revenue promises to total $780,
600, 900, the greatest sum ever collected
from that source.
In round figures, it cost the govern
ment last year $175.0OO.0OO for civil
service. s161. 900. 900 for army. s12O.OOO.-
900 for the navy. s21.OOO,OO0 for the In
dians, s15S. 900. 900 for pensions and S21,-
100000 for interest on the public debt;
s37. 100000 was spent upon the Panama
canal
The federal treasury enters the fis-
cal year for 1912 With more than 81
SOO,OOO,OOO cash, the largest sum ever
held.

San Francisco, July 1.-Two earth
quake shocks. the heaviest since the
big shake Of 1906 and separated by
only a few seconds, Jared the central
portion Of California and western
Nevada today. The first sharp shock
experienced at 2:O1 o'clock. was fol-
lowed within a few seconds by one of
similar intensity. each lasting about
five seconds.
Only trivial damage has been re-
ported from any section. but in San
Francisco and other cities in the af-
fected area, panic seized upon crowds
IN stores and restaurants and there
was a pellmell exodus from the large
buildings
one peculiar feature of the earth
quake was that it did not appear to
follow the old fault" in the earth's
crust which has been the playground
OF temblors in the past, but extended
from the seacOast eastward to the
Sierras. including the hitherto exempt
mountain areas. II was felt TO the
northward OF Sacramento, in Sacra-
mentO valley; southwark as far as
Fresno and to the east at Carson and
Reno. Nevada. the former place ex-
perlencing the heaviest shock in its
history
Some slight damage was done to
buildings i'm San Francisco Heavy
stones in the cornice of the Mechan-
les Bank building were moved slight
ly out of alignment, and superficial
cracks were made in several large
office buildings; cornices Of the new
pOstOffice building were disarranged
and minor damage was done to the
interior walls of a number Of other
buildings
Within a few seconds after the first
shock. many downtown buildings were
depopulated in a wild rush to the
streets. Telephone and telegraph ser
vice was suspended some minutes be-
cause of the operators deserting their
KEYS
Herbert Hadley, a lodging house in
mate, fell dead OF fright and some
cases Of hysteria or of cuts or bruises
suffered in the semi-panic were treat
ed at the emergency hospitals.
Word was received by the local
weather bureau from the sub-station
on Mount Tamalpais, 25OO feet above
the sea. to the effect that the sharp
est shock had been felt there since
the disaser OF 1906. The mountain is
close to the fault which opened
during the April quake.
