It was de- scribed by the members of the com- mittee as the most motable assembly since the Nobel prize was founded. King, Queen and Government Members All Present. King Haakon and Queen Maud were present, as well as dll the members of the government, who occupied seats on the stage, and the entire parliamentary body, among whom was Miss Rogstad, the first woman to be elected to the Norwegian storthing. The overture by the orchestra at the opening of the session was specially composed by the royal bandmaster, Johann Halverson, who dedicated it to Mr. Roosevelt. The theme embodied the Star Spangled Banner, Norse folk songs and melodies. Only the Stars and Stripes Visible. ‘The stage was bordered with flowers and no Norwegian flag was visible— ondy the Stars and Stripes, as a spe- cial compliment. The audience stood up when the king and queen and WIrs. Roosevelt took seats in the royal box. They arose again when Mr. Rooseveit entered from the back of the stage. escorted by J. G. Loeviand, the former premier and chairman of this Nobel | prize committee. Mr, Loevland intro- duced Mr. Rooseévelt, who read his speech. From time to time, however, he departed from the text, to Tepeat the same words or in somewhat dif- ferent words the ideas he had just ex- pressed. Tribute to Poet Bjornson. Before taking up the subject of his official address Mr. Roosevelt spoke of the late Bjornstjerne Bjornsom, “I wish to pronounce a tribute,” he said, “to the great Norwegian who has just died.” The whole house arose and stood with bowed heads for a moment, and Roosevelt continued, “whose death a gap in the literature of the At the close of the address the king and queen received Mr. Roosevelt in the reception room outside the royal box and congratulated him warmly. On leaving the theater, the king, with Col- onel Roosevelt at his right, drove in one carriage to the palace, while the queen and Mrs. Roosevelt occupied an- other. Holiday in Christiania. This was a holiday in Christiania and the people gathered on each side of the broad drive to the palace in such numbers that Mr. Roosevelt was moved to remark that he had not seen such immense crowds anywhere else in | Europe on this trip. League of Powers to Proposed. The ex-president in his address en- tered upon the most difficult field of European politics. In the conclusion of a carefully worked out thesis he advo-— cated an international agreement that Prevent Wars would serve to check the growth of armaments, especially naval arma- ments, and the formation by those great powers honestly bent on peace of a league of peace, “not only to keep the peace among themselves but to prevent, by force, if necessary, ite be- ing broken by others.” BALLINGER CONCLUDES HIS DIRECT TESTIMONY. His Every Official Act Has Been Strictly in Line With Duty. ‘Washington, May 5.—Secretary Bal- linger concluded his direct testimony at the Ballinger-Pinchot hearing this afternoon with the statement that his every official act had been with the sole idea of fulfilling his trust. “1 defy anyone to put his finger on anything that I have done while in the public service which was not in line with my duty and in accordance with my trust,” he said. As though in acceptance of the chal- lenge, Attorney Brandeis, counsel for L. R. Glavis, one of Ballinger’s chief accusers, then took up the cross exam- ination of the witness. Within five minutes the expected clash between them had taken place and on his very first question Mr. Brandeis had to ap- peal to the committee to “request” Mr, Ballinger to answer it. The question involved Postmaster General Hitchcock as the “official pie distributor” of the administration. Mr. Brandeis wanted to know why Mr. Ballinger wired Chief of Field Division wartz to-wait until he had talked with Hitchcock before he made the ap- pointment of ten special agents to be employed in the Alaskan coal cases in- vestigation. Mr. Ballinger sald that fact had no political significance and declined to answer more explicitly. A wrangle between Mr. Brandeis and the members of the committee ensued and the result was a record vete by which the committee by a vote of 6 to 5 de- cided that Mr. Ballinger need not an- swer more fully. Mr. Ballinger admitted the now fa-| mous Associated Press intervie in which he declared after his return to Washington, subsequent to the publi- “he cation of the G'avis charges, that proposed to kill some snakes.” ¥ admitted he aad reference to who, he haa made up his to be killed as a snak Glavis “loafed on the job” in conduct- ing the Alaskan cases and that he never thought as much of Glavis’ abil- ity as some others in his department did. Early in the day Mr. Ballinger con- tradicted two statements made by for- mer Secretary Garfield. He testified also that since Pinchot's dismissal there had been a complete reversal of the forestry policy of the government and he said he believed it would keep a great many Americans from emigrat- ing to Canada and would result in the development of many portions of the forest reserve. A ‘hitherto unpublished letter of the president to Mr. Ballinger under date of Sept. 13, 1909, was read. In it the president expressed a desire to retain Pinchot, but sald his weakness lay in “his inability to credit high and hon- orable motives to those who differ with him as to his method of doing things.” ‘The president in the letter requested Mr. Ballinger to remain silent under critiefsm and the secretary said this was_the reason he did not follow his naturael impulse to answer the charges against him.

Y. C. TRAINMEN AND CONDUCTORS. Decision Rendered by Arbitrators | Clarke and Morrissey. New York, May 5.—Approximately 6,000 trainmen and conductons employ- ed on the lines of the New York Cem- | tral railroad east of Buffalo will re- ceive wage increases averaging 30 per cent. by a decision rendered today by E. E. Clarke and P. H. Morrissey, ar- bitrators in the controversy between the railroad and its employes. The Delaware, Lackawanna and Western railroad and the Delaware and Hudson railroad and their employes are like- wise bound by the ruling which, broad- ly speaking, takes the recent Balti- more and Ohio settlement as a basis. The schedule of wages which the Bal- timore and Ohio granted not long aso was adopted by the unions as a stan- dard which they have been attempting to enforce on all the lines in the east- ern territory. The schedule fixed today is retroac- tive and the men will receive back pay from April 1. It is estimated that the dncrease will mean an additional ex- penditure by the Central of $2,000,000.

Section 12, permitting rai solidation under certain conditions, was discussed and many amendments were offered to it. An agreement was reach- ed by which this section - and all amendments thereto shall be voted up- on after one or two hours hours of discussion. Mr. Mann, in charge of the measure, expressed the hope that the bill would be finally disposed of next Tuesdav.

When a woman is brought to the edge of the grave by poisoning from the drinking of erdinary coffee day by day, and is then made well woman iby leaving it off, her experience is worth something to others that are { poisoned in various weays from the eame habit. A New Haven, Conn., woman says: “Four years ago my life hung on a very slender thread with’liver, kidney and heart trouble, and a very severe form of rheumatism. I was confined to bed with hands, wrists, feet and ankles so badly swollen that they bore no resemblance to parts of the human body. “I had frequent sinking spells from heart weakness when I was thought to be dying, and sometimes thought to be dead. My Doctor, one of the directo of the State Hospital, a very success ful man in his profession, told me to stop drinking coffee and use Postum, as he said coffee ‘was the primary cause of my trouble. “I took his advice at once and also discontinned medicines. Slowly the swelling disappeared, and the rheuma- tism left me; the sinking spells be- came less frequent.-and I got out of bed and around the house. I was completely cured but it required some time. “For the past three years I have been a perfectly strong, healthy wom- an, sleep well, with good appetite, good color, active and energetic. “It is a great pleasure to tesfify Postum which s made me a well woman again.
