ARGUMENTS NEXT WEEK Attorneys™for Prosecution and Defense Given Five Hours in Which to Sum Up Before the Committee—Briefs Will Be Submitted Later, but There Is No Indication When a Verdict May Be Expected. ‘Washington, May 21.—The investi- gation of the Ballinger-Pinchot con- troversy was brought to a close so far as the introduction of oral testimony is concerned and the case was set for argument next Friday and Saturday. ‘Within fifteen days after the argument counsel will submit briet and the com- mittee will then begin consideration of the evidence looking to a final de- cision. There is no indication as to when a verdict in the case may be expected, assumed that the committee will spend several weeks on the record before reaching a de- | cision and it is intimated that the committee may not be ready to report until the next session of congress. The record comprises over 3,000 printed pages. In fixing the date for-argument and other matters incidental to the clos- ing of the case the committee was unanimous for the first time since the inquiry began. Attorney Vertrees, for Secretary Bal- linger, informed the committee that he did not care to present any argument, a8 he did not regard it as essential, but members of the committee stated that they regarded argument by coun- sel as important and Mr. Vertrees ac- quiesced. Five hours will be occupied by each side. Mr. Brandeis, represent- ing L. R. Glavis, and Mr. Pepper, rep- resenting Forester “Gifford Pinchot, will open on Friday, occupying the major portion of their time. Mr. Ver- trees will follow on Saturday for Sec- retary Ballinger and Mr. Brandeis and Mr. Pepper will then close briefly. -/ Mr. Vertrees made the statement that if he argued the case he did not want to speak to empty chairs, say- ing that he anticipated that members of the committee would be prone to ‘“duck” the speechmaking. “I can imagine we will be talking to the chairman and a table surrounded by empty chairs,” he said. Olmsted Fears Dry Speech. “You must expect to make a very dry speech,” observed Representative Olmsted. Counsel for Pinchot reserved the right to offer some documentary evi- dence relative to the charge made by Secretary Ballinger that the forestry bureau had wasted over $700,000 in administering the Menominee Indian reservation in Wisconsin and other documentary evidence of unimportant character may be put in the record by Mr. Brandeis and Mr. Vertrees. To all practical purposes, however, the case is closed. After the final witness had been dis- charged Representative Graham brought up the question of introduc- ing certain correspondence relative to the charges filed against H. K. Love, United States marshal for one of the Alaskan districts, who was an impor: tant witness for the defense. There was some objection and in the discussion it developed that Love had been charged with dividing prof- its from the feeding of federal prison- ers, had admitted the charge, but had been excused by the department of Justice on the ground that what he had done had been the usual practice in Alaska. It was decided that the counsel and the ground that it was not liable. committee should go over the docu- You Are Zhe Judge I take your word for it. tape. No questions asked and no red .

VIGTORY FOR STATE IN OIL TRUST SUIT Rockefeller Goncern May Be Ousted From Minnesota, St. Paul, May 21.—The Standard Oi1 company may be ousted from Minne- sota. This is one of the possibilities resulting from a decision handed down by thé state supreme court. In an opinion written by Justice T. D. O’Brien, Justice C. L. Lewis dis- senting, the order of Judge George L. Bunn of the Ramsey county district court, sustaining the demurrer to the complaint interposed by the oil com- pany’s attorney, is reversed and the case remanded back for a new trial. The case against the Standard Oil company was brought by former At- torney General E. T. Young to revoke the license of the company to do busi- ness in Minnesota on the ground that the company was guilty of unfair com- petition by charging lower prices at competitive points for the purpose of destroying the business of competing companies. The Standard Oil company de- murred on the ground that the law is invalid and unconstitutional, being class legislation, and Judge Bunn ‘sus- tained the demurrer. This order of Judge Bunn is"now reversed by the supreme court. ONE MAN IS fATALLY HURT Corpse Hurled From Hearse in Run- away at Watertown, S. D. Watertown, S.

MATTERTAKEN INTO COURT Railroad Files Petition for Injunction in the United States Circuit Court at St. Paul and Asks for Immediate Hearing—Order Affects Entire Ter- ritory From St Paul to the Coast. St. Paul, May 21.—The Great North- ern railway does not intend to comply with the order of the interstate com- merce commission, making lower rates for upper berths in sleeping cars to the west, without a fight. The road has filed a petition with the United States circuit eourt in this city asking for a restraining order. Attorneys for the road asked that the hearing be held next Monday, but the interstate commerce commission asked that the hearing be delayed until May 28. This the road agreed to if the commission would suspend the appli- cation of the order until July 1. Ac- cording to the original order the rates were to be lowered June 1. The com- mission has not replied to this offer. The rates affected are from here to Fargo, to Grand Forks and to Seattle. The petition for injunction was filed by the legal department of the road last Monday, two days . before the Pullman company filed its petition in Chicago, seeking an injunction in the same case. The Great Northern op- erates its own sleepers to the west. MAY SUE HARRIMAN ESTATE State of Minnesota Wants Inheritance Tax on Certain Stocks. St. Paul, May 21.—The state of Min- nesota will endeavor to collect an in- neritance tax from tne estate of the late E. H. Harriman, who is supposed to nave owned stock in the Minneapo- lis and St. Louis and Great Northern railroads. Under the position taken in the John S. Kennedy case the state is entitled to its inheritance tax on all the stock so held, as both these rail- road companies are Minnesota corpo- rations. The attorney general’s department will also investigate twenty-five or thirty others admitted to probate since the inheritance” tax law was passed in_1905. Attorney General Simpson is elated over his success in the settlement made by the Kennedy estate, under which the state received $345,325.25.
