He was still under, direct examin ation when the committee adjourned until next Thursday. Passing from the subject of Alaskan coal lands, Mr. Ballinger launched into a justification of his attitude toward the. reclamation service. His most im portant denial was of the charge made by Director F. H. Newoll and Chief Kngineer A. P. Davis of the service that he misrepresented to tho president that the reclamation service had rec ommended the restoration of the water power sites withdrawn by Secretary Garfleld. The reclamation service officials swore Mr. Ballinger ordered them to recommend these restorations. Mr. Ballinger swore just aa positively that he made no such order, although he felt the lands had been illegaly withdrawn and should be restored to entry, and hi;d so stated to the reclamation of ficials. AFTKK NEWBIX'S SCAX.P Mr. Ballinger made no secret of the fact that he would like to see Mr. Newell superseded as head of the recla mation service. He told the committee he did not have much confidence in Mr. Newell'a administrative ability, al though he denied hostility to the gov ernment's reclamation policy, and said many of the projects under way had great possibilities for the development of the west. Asked by his lawyer why he did not "make a change" in the reclamation service, Mr. Ballinger retorted sharply: "Because my hands have been up for months and I have not been able to got them down." M Attorney Vertrees said tonight he Hoped to finish direct examination of ■Mr. Ballinger by midday next Thurs- Hflay, when he will turn him over to the ■opposing counsel for cross-examination. I Mr. Hallinger probably will be on the [ stand for three more days at least. MOKE 1.K.11T Two hours of today's session' were consumed by the committee over the question of granting Attorney Bran dels' request for papers and documents beaming on the summary of the Glavis charges prepared for the president by the attorney general. The committee again denied the request, though mak ing one small concession. The opposing attorneys argued thu question and threw some additional light on the con- troversy. If subordinates of Secretary Ballin ger*s office have any information which would shed light on the prepara tion of summary, Mr. Brandels may have it. So decided the committee. In opposing Brandels' request for the pa pers Vertrees asserted that the demand for them was simply part of a plan to discredit Ballinger unfairly. Mr. Vertrees charged there was a conspiracy afoot against advisers of a president who happened to be dis tasteful to the conspirators. He Inti mated that former Secretary Garfleld and former Forester Pinchot were the chief consirators. For the first time Mr. Brandels openly stated his belief that the attor ney general had antedated his sum mary with the "idea of making that appear proper which was not proper when done." He had reference to the dismissal of his client, L. R. Glavis, by the resident on September 13 last, and was intimating that the attorney general, months after that date, had drawn up the summary In an effort to justify an error of the president, and, in order to make the deception com plete, had dated In two days before the president's action was taken.

AN OLD LOG CABIN IS DAN BOONE'S MEMORIAL Replica of Indian Fighter's Boy hod Home Dedicated in North Carolina SALISBURY, N. C, April 30.—T0 the memory of tha^ famous pioneer, Daniel Boone, civilizer of the North Carolina and Kentucky wilderness, founder of Boonesborough, Ky., and Central figure and hero in the many boyhood stories of Indian fighting and hunting tales, memorials were cere moniously dedicated at Holman's Ford, near here, today. These promise to become a Mecca for patriotic pilgrims. On the historic spot where Boone spent nineteen years of his vigorous young manhood, hunting and resist ing the skulking , redskin, patriotic North Carolinans have erected on the exact site of the old homestead, a few hundred yurds from the Yadkin river, a new log cabin, a replica of the one occupied by the intrepid hunter and his family. Directly in front of the simple build- Ing stands a handsome shaft of native Rowan granite forming an Indian ar rowhead fifteen feet high and mount ed upon a massive base. Ornamenting this is a bronze tablet bearing tho name Daniel Boone and the date of his residence in North Carolina. Both of ilu si- memorials were dedicated with appropriate ceremonies in which many of the direct descendants of Boone and a scare of others who boagt of their relationship to the pioneer partici pated. An elaborate program of exercises had been arranged for the event. J. R. Mcßary, president of the Daniel Boone Memorial association, was mas ter of ceremonies and Governor Wil liam W. Kitchin presided. The chief addresses were delivered by Judge Peter C. Pritchard of the United States circuit court of appeals and Representative Page of the Seventh North Carolina district. The picturesque cabin which was dedicated today, the relics of the great pioneer that it contains and the unique tablet designed to perpetuate his mem ory are fruits of the work of the Dan iel Boone Memorial association, incor porated by tho general assembly of North Carolina in 1909. The exercises today took place on a temporary stand erected near the cabin. The music was furnished by the Pilgrim string band, augmented by a large choir from the Churchland school, while sixteen male students from the same school acted as mar shals. Picnic dinner was served the visitors on the grounds. FIRE HAS $15-000 MEAL ON STEAMER McDONALD STOCKTON, Appll 30.—The steamer J. R.
