Pioneer SAYS BALLINGER CHANGES GOURSE Attorney Brandeis Discusses Secretary’s Attitude, ° . NOT COURTING PUBLICITY Had Declared at First, Counsel Says, That He Would Do All in His Power to Aid the Probe, but ls Now Pro: testing Against the Production of Papers—Secretary's Lawyer Accuses Prosecution of “Fishing.” Washington, April 9.—When the Ballinger-Pinchot investigating com- mittee was called to order by Chair- man Nelson Attorney Brandels was on his feet protesting against the_letters written by Secretary Ballinger last week, complaining of the numerous wholesale calls for papers made upon the department by the attorney for the prosecution. The secretary char- acterized Mr. Brandeis’ course as an “oblique attempt to control the man- ner in which the dvidence should be presented” and a “mere~ fishing pro- cess.” Mr. Brandeis complained of the delay of the interior department In producing papers requested and he asked that instructions be issued call- ing for the production of the papers at onge. Mr. Brandeis then proceeded to at- tack the present position of Secretary Ballinger, which he characterized as “a remarkable reversal of ideas.” He declared that at first the secretary did not even want counsel “lest it hinder the committee in its search for the truth.” Afterward he employed counsel and now was protesting against the production of papers, he said. Attorney Vertrees declared that counsel for the prosgcution was “fish- ing” because the main case put in against Secretary Ballinger “had failed in all its parts.” Member Cracks a Joke. “Fishing,” remarked Representative Ollie James, amid laughter, “don’t hurt nothing ’less you catch some- thing.” The discussion was ended by the adoption of a motion of Representa- tive Denby calling upon the secretary of the interior to produce all papers called for by the committee with “all due speed.” Andrew Christensen, the chief of fleld division of the land office,- who succeeded Glavis at Seattle, Wash.,, was called to the stand He told of the trouble he had with Glavis about the turning over of certain official pa- pers in the Seattle office. Christensen said on advice of the United States attorney at Seattle he made a demand in writing upon Glavis, saying that as he was no longer in the government service he had no right whatever to the papers. In response to this demand Glavis returned some papers to the office the following morning. After this the witness said he found that twenty- four letters mentioned in a receipt of papers were missing from the files The correspondence read by the wit- ness showed that others than Glavis ‘were under suspicion as to the miss- Ing letters. A general inquiry was instituted by the department and’ “third degree” methods were resorted to. The letters consequently were found by Christensen, it is said, in a box belonging to Glavis.

Indian Warrlor Located After Eluding Officers Two Years. TAFT IS URGED T0 RECONSIDER May Rescind Determination to Not Visit Indiana. GRAZY SNAKE IN MOUNTAINS Party of Hunters Stumbles on Indian Chief's Hut. Muskogee, Okla., April 9.—A special from Henryetta, Okla., says that Chit- to Harjo, “Crazy Snake,” the famous chief of the Crazy Snake band of war- rlors and hero of many bloody Indian combats, who has for nearly two years pluded federal and county officers, is living in a log cabin in the mountains near Henryetta. A party of hunters stumbled upon his hiding place, although it is sald that every living member of the for- mer Crazy Snake band knew the loca- tion of the cahin CLOCKS MUST BE CORRECT Bill Regulating Public Timepleces In- troduced in House. ‘Washington, April 8.—Business men In the District of Columbia who dis- play clocks to the public will have to toe the mark and make certain that their timepieces are correct, if a bill introduced in the house by Represen- tative Coudrey (Rep., Mo.) is passed. The measure makes it mandatory upon owners of public timepieces to keep them running within two min- utes of standard time, under penalty of $25 fine. Coudrey inmsists, also, that when such clocks . are undergo- ing repairs their faces must be cov- ered so the people won't be deceived in the ume PEOPLE ANGRY OVER BROKEN PLEDGES Governor Harmon Says Moral Uprising Is Goming, New York, April 8.—An interview given by Governor Judson Harmon of Ohio to the Times is being widely dis- cussed by the politicians of this state In view of the fact that the governor looms large as a potential candidate for the Democratic presidential nom- ination in 1912. The governor believes the conspic- uous reproaches in our governmént system today are: “Government for the enrichment of special interests 1nstead of far the people. “Tariff for the advancement of spe- cific moneyed interests instead of for revenue only. “Extravagance in federal adminis- tration.” The foregoing will be among the big issues in the Harmon campaign in 1912 in the event that the Democratic party nominates him. Of course, all that Governor Harmon is saying at present about his own pmidenual bee is: “I am deeply touched by the compli- ments of those friends' who have been kind enough to express the belief that Iam a big enough man for the job.” ON “SECOND ' HONEYMOON” Colonel and Mrs Roosevelt Retravel- ing Trip Made in 1887. Spezia, Italy; April 8.—Colonel -and Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt began their “second honeymoon” here.. They ar- rived unattended from Rome and, after a brief rest, they started to drive by easy stdges to Genoa. In the spring of 1887, shortly after their marriage in London, they made the same trip by carriage and will re- trace the route of nearly a quarter of a century ago as closely as possible. After arriving at' Genoa the trip to Porto Maurizio will'be made by train. There three days will be spent at the villa of Mrs. Roosevelt’s sister, Miss Carew. After the stay at Porto Maurizio the | Roosevelts will return to Genoa for a brief stay before proceeding to Vienna. WHOLE TOWN FIGHTS FIRE Women, and Children Removed to Place of Safety. Lanigan, Sask., - April 8.—Prairie fires are raging in many sections. The entire population of this town fought fire which a furious wind swept over the town. When it appeared that the place would be consumed all the wo- men.and children were placed in the middle of the race track while the male population fought the flames. The town is: still threatened with' de- struction.

Washington, April 8$.—President Taft has not yet definitely dectded Whether he will cancel his promised speech in Indianapolis on May 5. So much pressure has been brought to bear upon him from so many direc- tions that he may rescind his determi- nation to abandon this date. The president has concluded he will not give a final answer until: further tele- grams he is expecting from Indiana arrive. There is a growing feeling here that the president may consént to go to Indianapolis after all. It wag stated at the White House that the In: diana Republican platform was not the paramount element on the de- cision of the president to abandon the Indianapolis date. Mr. Taft, 8o it was stated, had read the speech of Sena tor Beveridge some days before it wat delivered and knew about what to ex- pect from the Indiana convention in the way of a tariff plank. It was not intended that the an- nouncement of the abandonment of the trip should be construed as a re- buke to the Indiana Republicans, it is said by friends of the president, but the fact that there. was 'no relation be- tween the acts of the convention and the decision of the president led to the announcement of the latter at an unfortunate time. Hope for Defeat of Beveridge. The standpat element in congress, especially in the house, would like to see Senator Beveridge defeated. They make no concealment of their feelings on this score. Likewise they would like to see the fight carried into every Insurgent state, both against members of the house and the senate. “The only drawback to this pro- gramme,” said a standpat leader in the house, “is that we lack an ade- quate éxplanation for the tariff bill. I have been out in the country several times this spring and I find the Re- publicans eager and anxious to fight but utferly unable to'answer. the at- tacks bf the Democrats. If somebolly will ¥ig°up a good explanation I look for the' situation’ to improve imme- diately.” Right now it looks like the breaking up of a bad winter.” President Taft has reccived numer- ous telegrams from Indianapolis and Indiana urging him to reconmsider his determination not to speak at Indian- apolis and former Vice President Fair- banks has notified him that other tele- grams are on the way. Until all of these telegrams are in the president will hold his plans in abeyance. THREE SAILORS ARE KILLED Crew of Vessel Attacked by Natives in the New Hebrides. Victoria, B. C, April 8—The re- cruiting schooner: St. Joseph was at- tacked by blacks in the New Hebrides near Mallico early in March and three sallors were killed and two wounded. The survivors succeeded in rescuing the wounded men and cut loose the anchor and made away. The attack is said to have been made in revenge for the carrying off ot native women by the crew. There is much unrut in the New Hebrides and several barbaric fncl- dents are reported. At Ambryn re- cently a chief died and all his wives were killed and eaten. UNDER THREE-CENT FARES Cleveland Street Car Company Earn- Ing Six Per Cent. . Cleveland, April 8—During the month of March the earnings of the local ‘ street car compAny,- operating under a 3-cent fare, were sufficient to cover ‘all the expenses and leave a profit-of 6 per cent on the investment, according to a statement issued by John Stanley, vice president of the company. Mr. Stanley states that un- usually favorable conditions pre- vailed during March and adds that he is unwilling to say that subsequent months will show as good returns. WAR ON AMERICAN PACKERS British Butchers Want Embargo on Argentine Cattle Removed. London, April 9.—Another step in the British Butohers’ association’s war against the packers of the United States for their alleged actions in holding meat in cold storage to force higher prices was taken when the as- sociation asked the government to re- move the embargo against the impor- tation of live cattle from Argentina. These cattle are admittedly inferior to American cattle, but the difference in_quality does not compensate for the- high price demanded for Ameri- nnn beef.

Pittsburg, April 8—The district at- torney and his staff are busy with the grand jury, presenting what is be-.| lieved to be the last square in.the puzzle plot, which, when completed, will, it is believed, make one of thé most sensaticnal graft pictures ever brought to the light of publicity, To fill vacancies in the council caused by the resignation of its’ in- dicted members Mayor Magee has called a special election for April 26. The ordered indictment of Frank N. | Hoffstot, banker and manufacturer, now living in New York, is the one topic- discused in the graft exposure. Mr. Hoffstot’s extradition, according to the district attorney, will be asked for, but in the event of the failure of that procedure it is reported he will be tried in New York state.
