gress Session,

Washington. D. G., March 7.Seere-
larry Of the Interior Richard Achilles
Ballinger has resigned from President
Iaft's cabinet, and he will be succeed
ed by Walter L. Fisher of Chicago. The
resignation was rendered to the presi-
dent in letter dated January 10, the
secretary basing it entirely upon the
condition Of his health
President Taft replied Immediately to
the letter. lie expressed confidence in
Secretary Ballinger and added his re-
tuctance to accept the resignation. He
requested Secretary Balinger to remain
in Office until the close OF the present
session OF Congress. Immediately upon
the adjournment Of Congress. Secretary
Ballinger renewed the request that he
be relieved at date suiting the presi-
dents convenience, but Immediately il
possible. To-day President Taft, in a
letter, formally accepted the resigna-
ton.
Mr.. Fishers commission was signed
Immediately by President Taft. He will
lake the Office in a few days
The correspondence between the presi-
dent and Secretary Ballinger displays
the confidence which Mr.. Taft has re-
posed in Mr.. Ballinger throughout the
long siege. and the indignation with
which he has viewed the attack upon
the seeretary's personal and official in
tegrity.

II, ~ -,

government and public and to know
your motives. to know how You have
administered your office and to know
the motives OF those who have assailed
you do not hesitate TO say YOU
have been the object Of one Of the
most INSCRIPTIONS eonspiracies for de-
famation OF character that history can
show"
And in the conclusion OF his letter
the president declares, Every fibre OF
my nature rebels against such hypoc-
fisy," referring TO the attacks upon Bal
fingers character, "and it nerves me to
fight such combination and such meth
pds to the bitter end lest success in
this instance may form demoraliz-
ing precedent, But my personal con
fideration for you and yours makes me
feel that have no right TO ask you
for further sacrifice
The president then goes on to declare
that it is evident he himself has been
the ultimate object of the attack. and
says that to insist upon Mr.. Ballmger's
remaining in Office with the prospects
Of further efforts against you, is to

Mayor Dahman, who was one of the
committee Of three that framed the bill,
stated Friday morning that he was sur
prised at the action of the house in chang
ing the bill materially The only amend
ments agreed on were those relating to the
gathering and disposal OF garbage and
some minor changes where words were to
be inserted to make the section more spe-

But these amendments striking out GER
tain portions of the bill are in line with
what might have been expected. l guess
when the senate gets through cracking
that bill no one will ever recognize It,"
Neither Mayor Dahlman, City Attorney
Rine or Councilman Berka, who composed
the original committee, know anything
about the changes. But they were all busy
around the city hall Friday morning con-

PARK BOARD TO CARE FOR
ALL TREES ALONG STREETS
Councilman BerkR Prepares an Ordi-
nance to Make the streets More
Uniform.

An ordinance, empowering the Park
board TO care for the trees along all
streets and boulevards of the city, is being
drawn by City Attorney Rine at the sug-
gestion of Councilman Berka. The ordi-
nance will be presented to the council
Tuesday night.
IF the ordinance passes the Park board
will have charge OF all trees" said Mr..
BeTka and can make some provisions
for a uniform method or trimming them.
In this way the city can be beautified at
little expense to the city. The charter
provides that such an ordinance can he
passed by the council, but it has never
been done. There has been much objec-
ton to the condidtion OF the trees In the
city Along some streets they have never
been cared for at all. The branches have
grown downward until they obstruct the
sidewalks.
when the Park board looks after the
trees this condition can be overcome.
Mr.. Berka will also have an ordinance
drafted providing for better ventilation In
the theaters and amusement houses Of the
city. lie has asked the building inspector
10 make suggestions as TO ways and means
and as soon as Mr.. Withheld responds "a
the request an ordinance will be drawn by
the city attorney.
