Washington, May 6.-Gifford Pin
chot made the charge, before the
senate committee on territories today,
that private interests had held up
legislation to open Alaskan coal
fields under a leasing system and
named ex-senator Simon Guggenheim
of Colorado as one who had exerted
his influence to prevent such legisla-
ton. Pinchot said that he could
name other men, in and out of con-
gress, who had opposed the leasing
system.
Pinchot was called to give his opin-
ion of the bill providing for govern
ment aid in building Alaskan rail-
roads.
Pinchot declared that, in his judg-
ment, the government should operate

favored the retention in the govern
ment's possession of all factors of

Denver, May 6.=The attempts of
certain Denver utility corporations to
refer the public utilities measure

ernor Ammons, who declares that it
would be calamity for such a thing
to be done. However, the governor
believes that those back of the pro-
posed reference of the bill will not
succeed as the people generally favor
the law and viii not doubt refuse to
sign the petitions. The people of
Colorado have wanted such a law for
% years" said the governor today.
"and they are not going to give up
the advantage they now have in the
present bill. 1t would be an outrage
to tie up the measure for two years
by referring it at this time. l can
see where there might be a little ar
gument in favor of referring sections
35. SO and 81, but / cannot see any
justice in referring the whole bill"
II is learned here that most of the
larger corporations are content with
the bill. but there are few utilities
back of the plan to send the bill to
the people two years hence for their
vote. An effort is being made to stop
any further reference agitation.

SERIOUS FIRE

A telephone message this afternoon

the Hockett & Rudolph livery stable

The fire was particularly serious be-
cause it was only by heroic work that
much of the business section of the
town was saved from a general con-
flagration. All the horses and an au-
tomobile in the stable were saved.
