SUPPORTERS OF BALLINGER MEET Republican Members of Com- mittee at Chicago. LACK ONE OF QUORUM Said Chairman Nelson Has Proxy of Senator Flint, the Absentee, and a Report Exonerating the Secretary of the Interior Is Expected—Partici- pants Unable to Say How Lgng Ses- sion Will Last. Chicago, Sept. 14—Shortly before noon Senator Knute Nelson called to order the meeting of Republican mem- bers of the Ballinger-Pinchot investi- gating committee which he had ap- yointed to be held in this city. The committee was called to gather at 10 o’clock, but the train on which Senator Nelson came to Chicago was delayed and he arrived nearly two hours late. Senator Nelson declined to say on arrival just how long he thought the meeting would last or when the report of the members of the committee now in session here would be made public. As was expected the Democratic members and Mr. Madison of Kansas, the progressive Republican, who on Friday, in Minneapolis, made public their findings which condemned the of- ficial acts of Secretary Ballinger, failed to attend. All the Republican members, with the exception of Senator Flint, were here. Senator Flint is not expected to return from a trip abroad for some time. His absence will result in no quorum being maintained. However, it was reported that Sena- tor Nelson has a letter from Senator Flint authorizing him to cast Mr. Flint’s vote with the majority of the Republicans. If this is donme action on the question as to whether the Republican findings in the controversy shall be made public now may be expected. The Republican members were non-committal before they met regarding this phase of the dispute. Luncheon was sent to the commit- tee room and the executive session continued during the afternoon. Sena- tor Sutherland left the meeting for a few minutes, but declined to discuss the deliberations. COLONEL ROOSEVELT SILENT Refuses to Discuss Result of Election in Maine. New York, Sept. 14.—Theodore Roosevelt, up bright and early from Oyster Bay to pay his first visit to his editorial offices since his return from his Western trip, was not in- clined to comment for publication on the result of the Maine election. Asked to express himself on the subject the colonel said: “Nothing to say.” Colonel Roosevelt was no more com- municative, either, on political topics in general. Pressed for some state- ment on the general situation he re- sponded: “No. T have just returned from a hygienic tour to steep myself in lit- erary calm.” With that the colonel, who had momentarily emerged from his private quarters, beat a retreat to his offices SWEEPING CUT IS ORDERED Canadian Railroad Commission Re- duces Alaskan Rates.
