BALLINGER SAVES
PUBLIC COAL LANDS
Orders 13.500.000 Acres in
Montana Withdrawn from
Entry.
HOLD VALUABLE DEPOSITS
Area Twice the Size of Alaska's
Known Coal Fields — 57.000,
000 Acres Now With
drawn.
! F»om Th» Trthun- Bu-»«u ■
Washington. April 21.— Secretary Hal
linger has withdrawn from entry ap
proximately IMJBOOJKO acres of land in
southeastern Montana, believed to con
tain valuable deposits of coal, pending
examination and classification as to their
coal values.
The withdrawal is made on the re-om
mendntion of the dim* tor of the <;eninpri
cal Survey. This is th" largest single
withdrawal of coal lands, covering terri
tory not previously withdrawn, which
ha? been made since Secretary Hitchcock
made the original coal withdrawal. in
190 ft. The area withdrawn is twice that
of the known coal fields of Alaska. The
land? involved are in Valley, Dawson.
R.-.i»ehud and Custer counties, and in
tlude the greater part of Montana east
of the K»7th meridian and from the
Wyoming line to the international boun
dary.
The information before the rjeolngical
Survey indicates that a large percentage
of th<» lands embraced within the with
drawal will be classified as coal lands
probably a much larger percentage than
usually obtains in coal land withdrawals
The indications are that the greater part
of the lands are underlain by several
vein? of coal varying in thickness, the
quality of which range? from a lignite in
the southeastern part of the stat* to a
good grade of sub-bituminous near the
Wyoming line. There has recently been
considerable activity in public land mat
ters in this section of Montana and the
withdrawal was made to prevent the ac
quisition of valuable coal deposits under
agricultural land laws
The total area of COB] lands now with
drawn from entry for purposes of classi
fication and appraisement is approxi
mately liT.nf'n.noo acres. The withdrawal
will in no way interfere with the devel
opment of the country should legislation
looking to the separation of the surface
from the mineral richt* be enacted by
Congress, but such legislation would re
s»r\<- to ike United States all coal de
posits.
Secretary Ballinger also has ordered
400.000 acres of land in Montane into the
enlarged homesteads as not being sus
ceptible of irrigation from any known
s-ource of water supply.' and has applied
a like order to 2^,00f» acres in New Me.x
i<~o This bring? the area designated for
homesteads in Montana close to 30.000. M(\
acres and in New H«stco Id more than
15.000.000 acres

PIGOTT FORGERY RECALLED
Trouble Caused by Motion to
Abolish Pension of Author of
"Parnellism and Crime"
Letters.
London. April I'l.— Memorial of the
turbulent nerves of Parnell's time were
revived in the House of « 'ommons to
nlcht during the discussion of a motion
by T. P. O'Connor to reduce the < "ivil
Service estimate* by :?4.."»<mi the amount
• f Sir liohert Anderson's pension.
In an niitohtocr:iphi<- article recently
Sir Robert Anderaun admitted author
ship of the famous ■'I'arn^'.Hsni and
«'rime" series of articles which appeared
in "The TlnmT in is**?, and i 111 111 I— lfld
In the pabtSrailon of the I'ißott forg*ry.
The Irish members of the Hosjao an
notinced their intention to secure, if pos
sible, a government investigation of the
affair, with ■ ie\»- to depriving? Sir Rob
ert of his pension, on the ground that his
act was a breach of official <onfld^nrp,
as he had hern the bead of the investi
gation department nf Scotland Yard
Mr. Ralfour. loader of the Opposition,
agreed at to-night's session with Premier
Asqulth and Mr. «'hurchlll in rondemn
ing Sir Robert's action as improper, but
Mr. Churchill, as Horn* Secretary, de
clined to interfere to deprive him of his
pension.
The debate was proceeding quietly but
with acerbity on the part of Hie Na
tionalists, one of whom o« lare<] th.it Pir
Robert's articles were an attempt to re
vive old charges against the National
ists in order to help *the Tories in the
coming elections, when the Rie'it Hon.
James Henry ("amphHl. Member from
Dublin I'niversity. In the curse of his
*peecli referred to th«^ Ph'pnix Park
murders and the pigott letter in terms
that excited the hiehest resentment from
the Irish benches. There were loud de
mands for Mr. Campbell to withdraw his
offensive expressions.
The chairman declining to interfere,
a Barfed ■proBX ensued, Mr. Redmond
shouting. "It was an outrage!" while
others cried. "Send for tlie Speaker'"
The chairman and Secretary for Wnr
H?ildane vainly appealed to the House
to allow Mr «'ampb*ll to continue his;
ppee,-h.
The pandemonium was renewed on the,
part of the Nationalists, who ■booted,
"Plpott!" "Dublin Castle!" "We wont
stand it!" and cheered for Parnell. The
scene was continued for several minute?,
and finally Mr. Churchill moved closure.
Hnd Mr O'Connor's motion was rejected,
I*4 to 94.
The country \> ill be given a respite
from a general flection for at least three
months Premier As«|iiith announced
In the House of commons to-day that the
spring recess of Parliament. which win
begin <>n April ?R, would continue until
May 26. when the House of I.ords. re
assembling, will occupy the greater part
of a week in the debate on I.iord Rose

According^, it will be im|H,ssible for
the House <»f Commons to take up the

No Law to Punish Embezzlers
Exists.
NORTON AMAZES COMMITTEE
Bonding System Obsolete and
Unsatisfactory — Investiga
tion May Be Made.
Washington, April 21. — The astonish
ing statement wni made by Charles D.
Norton. Assistant Secretary of the Treas
ury, before the House Commit on
Kxpenditures in the Treasury Depart
ment to-day, that there was at present
no law on the statute hooks by which a
subordinate In any of the sub -Treasuries
of the United States could be punished
for making away with public funds. A
man might loot the Treasury of as much
as he liked or could get away with, and
no 1.-iw exist? by which he could be pun
ished. Mr Norton declared If two or
more employee: engaged in an embezzle
ment they might be punished for con
spiracy, hut that was all.
The further information was elicited
that the bonding system of treasurers
and assistant treasurers of the I'nlted
St.ite-; and their various subordinates
Wfca obsolete and inadequate Treasurer
■fcChnaj said that his hand of $i=io.ono
wns the same as that required in ITHX
The Assist;! nt Treasurer :tt New York
furnished a bond of |«00.000. vipned by
rrhnte persons, for the reason that a
bonding company would charge him
|lS#f premium Mr. Norton said the
furnishing of bonds by private poTSOne
in BBCk cases was a most undesirable
arrangement.
Subordinates in the Treasury Depart
ment, handling millions af money dath.
were required to furnish no bond, except
hi si -me cases where assistant treasurers
required bonds regardless of the law.
This and much other similar informa
tion was given by Mr. Norton at a hear
ing to-day <>n the question of whether
th<- ...mmittee on expenditures in the
Treasury Department should undertake
an investigation of the shortage of ftl.
<kim in the Bttb-Treaanr] nt WL Lanta,
and incidentally inquire into the ac
counting system in the Treasury.
After listening to statements 1 \ Mr
Norton and Representatives Shackleford
and Martholdt. of Missouri, the commit
tee adjourned without deciding whether
or not an investigation would bo held.
Both Missouri t'ongressmen urged the
committee to undertake a speedy in
quiry into the St. l^>uls shortage, in or
der that Justice might be done.
Mr. Norton feeM <>f the extensive plans
of the department to perfect a new sys
tem of construction of vaults, cages and
other features at the various treasuries,
and of espionage and examination of
• . -. institutions.

For long hours the gray aquiline feat
ures lay moulded in the Inertia of death,
while the i>m!s*» sank lower and lower,
but late at night Mr Clemen* passed
from stupor into the first natural sleep
he had known since he returned from
Bermuda. This morning he -wok* re
freshed, even faintly cheerful and in full
possession of all his faculties.
He recognized his daughter Clara. Mrs.
Hssip Ciabrilowitsch; spoke a rational
word or two. and. feeling himself un
equal to conversation, wrote out in
pencil. "»;ive me my glasses." Th^se
were his last words. Laying the glasses
aside, he sank first into a reverie and
later into final unconsrlousness
Ther«» was no thought at th» tlm#.
however, that the end was so near. At
."» o dock Dr. Robert Halsey. who had
i been continuously In attendance, said:

hour as h<» was at th* corresponding
hour yesterday, but he has wonderful
vitality, and he may rally again." Al

Restoratives, digitalis, strychnine and
camphor were administered, but the pa

Mr. Clemens did not die in anguish.
Sedatives soothed his pain at the last,
but in his moments of consciousness be

Bermuda he said to Albert Bigelow Paine,
who had been his constant companion
in illness: 'This is a bad Job; well never

It is certain to be recalled that Mr.
Clemens was for more than fifty years)
an inveterate smoker, and the first con

had) weakened his heart by overindul
