BOSTON, March H.-(speeial Telegram)
"A forecast by the Boston News bureau,
a leading authority in financial matters
gives the United States clip Of wool this
year as about us 100000 pounds or 25,OOO,OOC
pounds less than the normal clip. 1t states
that the clip this year will be OF good
average quality, but on account OF the
hard winter a year ago, drouth and mar
keting OF sheep during high meat prices
last year the clip has been reduced to
the estimated figures given.
Owing TO the decline Of prices the last
year. the grower will probably receive at
least 10 per cent less than year ago.
There IL very little contracting ahead for
the new clip Some 100000 pounds taken
by a St Louis house would probably
represent about the total Of transactions

 Under the senate rules considera ton of the resolution went over.
 Ever since the removal of Pinchot congress has had much to do with the seating of the man Purcell would oust.
 Charges Against Ballinger.
 The charges made against him have been varied and ranged from nothi1e less than stealing from the people of the United States to pre-, venting justice and favoring monopo- lies
 The specific charges against Bal. finger were that before the time when he resigned as commissioner of the general land office in March, 1908, to take up the practice of law and his acceptance of his present office in March 1909, he had acted as attorney for the Cunningham group of Alaska coal claimants and that by so doing he had violated the legal provision that the former officer of the govern ment shall not prosecute a claim against the United States until two years have elapsed Also that he had Issued his knowledge acquired in the public service in the case.
 When Case First Came Up.
 Although the Ballinger-Pincbot con. trovery first came to public atten- ton when l.. R. Glavis, the former field agent, laid his charges against the secretary of the interior before President Taft on August IS, 1909, it really had its inception during the Roosevelt administration
 At that time Mr. Ballinger was at the head of the land office. A group of men, called the Cunningham inter. ests, had filed a number of claims to some very valuable coal lands in Alaska. These interests. according to Pinchot and his followers, are con- trolled absolutely by the Guggen. helms.
 Ballinger was vindicated by the committees that investigated his rec ords and his business dealings.
