WILL REJECT THE
ALASKA CLAIMS
CUNNINGHAM GROUP TAINTED
WITH FRAUD, ACCORDING
TO INTERIOR DEPT.
BENNETT PREPARING DECISION
Commissioner In Decision to Hold All
Embellishments May Appeal,
but Have Little Chance Of
Winning.

Washington. June 6.-The Cunning
ham claims to Alaska coal lands will
BE- thrown out as tainted with fraud
and all rights over the lands restored
TO the United States, according to in.
formation obtained at the department
Of the interior
Fred bennett, commissioner of pub.
lie lands, will decide the case within
the next week He ia now engaged
in writing a decision in which he will
hold all the claims involved in the
Cunningham group are invalid under
the law. From this decision the
claimants may, if they desire, appeal
to Secretary of the Interior Fisher.
In such cases the secretary Of the
interior Is absolutely the court of last
resort. Inasmuch as 1t is foregone
conclusion that Secretary Fisher would
uphold Commissioner bennett in an
adverse decision on these claims, it is
believed unlikely that any appeal will
be made. Secretary Fisher is now In
Chicago. but is expected to return to
the capital on Wednesday. The an
nouncemcnt of the decision is SEIZED.
uled b be made soon thereafter.
The decision will close the imbroglic

place in President Taft's cabinet. 1t

hams, whom Ballinger represented be.
fore he became secretary of the inte'
rior that the conservation storm ragged
for more than year.
The decision also will open new
era in the administration of public
lands. 1t will lead not only to the
throwing out of other claims which
are being contested by the government
as invalid on the same charges, but
it will clear the way for the farming
of legislation providing for the open.
ing of the Alaskan coal fields under
regulations conserving to the public
interest The Cunningham claims are
only 33 out of total of 100 in this
one locality, and proceedings are pend.
ing against others of this number on
the charge that they represent con.
spiracies to evade the law.
The chief scandal connected with
the Cunningham claims was the rev.
citation of an arrangement for com
bining claims and selling them out af
ter they had been perfected to the
Guggenheim Alaska interests. Under
the law this combining of claims and
interests in claims is prohibited, the
statute contemplating that each settler
should stake out his claim and work it
himself.
President Taft has asked congress
to amend the land laws to permit the
leasing of the coal deposit to corpora.
tons on terms advantageous to the
government. the people retaining title
to the properties. Secretary Fisher is
working out plan for such co-opera
ton between the government and pri
vate capital and will have it ready to
present to congress next winter.

PRAISES LAST ASSEMBLY
Says Last Legislature Intended To
Deal Fairly With Public Health
Questions.

There has been much criticism OF
the last legislature for the niggardly
manner in which. it dealt with the
state board of health in the matter
of appropriations" said Secretary
Sumner of the board. II must con-
fess that the last legislature showed
most encouraging change of opin-
ion regarding public health matters
as compared with the legislature pre-
ceding it. 1t is true that the state
board of health has not been dealt
with literally in the matter of appro-
priations, but believe that the last
legislature purposed to deal fairly
with public health questions and as
secretary of the board have no crit
icism to offer. The development OF
a system of public health work which
will enable a state board or commits
sion to do the greatest good to the
greatest number is the work of years.
The Thirty-fourth General Assembly
has given that work good boost and
believe that we should take the
good things we can get and not find
fault because we don't get more"

CARRETA'S TRAINED
ANIMALS and BIRDS.
This Fine Collection Of Birds, Dogs
and the "Pony Prince" to Appear
at Chautauqua-A Performance OF
Fine Entertainment Features and
Clean Amusement.

There will be something doing at
Chautauqua when Garretta comes with
his famous trained animals and birds
The introduction of such a feature
upon the Chautauqua platform may
seesn little odd but 1t is full of the
liveliest interest.
1t is almost unbelievable that birds
can be taught such feats. They seem
to possess almost human intelligence.
They carry flags, push wheelbarrow,
fire of pistol, roll hoops and do in
Vulnerable interesting things.
In Garretta's collection are to be
found Brazilian Macaws. Australian
Cockatoos, fancy pigeons. rare doves
and beautiful canaries. These are all
trained to perfection and perform
wonderful feats.
Garretta's dogs are certainly clever
specimens. The cunning and ingen.
ious tricks they play will be delight
to both young and old. Many of them
are of rare beauty.
Perhaps the browning glory of Gar
retta's. collection is his trained pony,
prince" prince" seems to know
everything. His appearance upon the
platform is the signal for bursts Of
enthusiasm from the little folks. while
both young and old are delighted with
the many tricks he performs.
Garretta carries large assortment
of properties and accessories and his
entire performance has a seasoned
and finished appearance. There are
two people with the attraction and ev.
erything moves with accuracy and
dispatch. There are thirty birds and
dogs in this collection ard altogether
1t makes . big showing.
