inent After HH7 mcoi,
"That Richard A. Ballinger has
not (been true to the trust reposed
in him as Secretary of the Interior,
that he is not deserving of public
confidence, and that he should be
required by the proper authorities
tc resign his office." The foregoing
sums up the finding of the four Democratic
mem'bers of the Ballinger^..
Plnchot Congressional investigating
^ committee, which were, made public
late Friday after they held a meeting
at Minneapolis, 'Minn.
The Republican members issued
no report of any kind bearing on the
controversy. An independent report
was given out by Mr. Madison,
the "Insurgent" Republican from
Kansas, which declares that Mr.
Ballinger "should not be retained
that he was an unfaithful trustee
of the people's interests and enemy
of eonservation," and that the
/ hnrtfps of Gifford Pinchot should
be sustained.
These findings will be printed and
filed with Omgress. The decision
of the four Democratic members, and
Mr. Madison to make the reports
public followed a session which was
unusual. Three Republican memhere,
Senator Sutherland, of Utah,
and Representatives McCall, of Massachusetts,
and Denby, of Michigan,
refusing to attend the meeting. Finally
the chairman of the committee,
himself, Senator Nelson, of Minnesota,
left the committee room and
failed to return.
Chairman .Nelson gave notice that
a meeting would be held in Chicago
next Tuesday. The Democratic members
adjourned to meet again in
Washington, December 3. Representative
Ollle M. James, of Kentucky,
one of the Democratic members, announced
that all of the Democrats,
wtuM r*?fiih? to attend the meetings,
of which Senator Nelson has just
?lven notice. The Republicans will
then be in the same position that
the Democratic members and Mr.
Madison found themselves Friday.
The report of the Democrats Is
fllgned by Senators Duncan U. Fletcher,
of Florida, and William Purcell,
of North Dakota, and Representatives
Ollie James, of Kentucky,
and James M. Graham, of Illinois
It says:
"Summarized, the Democratic
findings declare that the evidence
shows:
"Th.'it there was no conspiracy
against Mr. Ballinger.
"That Clifford Piuchot and L. R.
<Glavlfi were faithful trustees of the
people's interests.
"That Mr. Ballinger's conduct on
certain occasions was intended to
and did have the effect of fooling
the President.
"That Mr. Ballinger's action in
havinig 'cloarified' these so-called
Cunningham Alaskan coal tanas aim
ordering them patented showed bad
faith.
>"That ho advocated a bill to validate
Alaskan coal claims alleged to
bo fraudulent.
"That his action in acting as attorney
in cases pending in the land
offices while he was commissioner
wa6 reprehensible.
"That he helped to force the Cunmingham
coal claims to a hearing
before the government was ready to
proceed.
"That he encouraged subordination
in the reclamation service and
condoned improper official conduct
in that connection."
Numerous official acts of Mr. Bul^
linger are attacked. High praise is
given Gilford Pinchot, former chief
forester, and L. R. Glavis. former:
chief of the field division of I he
general land office.
Mjr. Madison's conclusions are:
"That the charges of Messrs. Gla??
nuMmt should he sustained.
V1B HI1U X lliu?u?
"That Mr. Ballinger has been unfaithful
to the public interests.
"That in the matter of the
Cunningham coal lands he war. not
a faithful trustee of the people s mterests.
I
"That with regard to the reclamation
service he has taken action tending
toward it? disintegration."
Secretary Ballinger's action in restoring
water power sites without intention
to withdraw is also criticised,
along with his conservation policy
among other things.
A resolution adopted by the Deni
ocrats find Mr. Madison provides lor
publication of the findings. When
Senator Nelson left the committee,
Senator Fletcher was made chairman
pro tern and the iHenvbers present
.proceeded with their work.
Earlier in the day an effort *vas
made to secure a quorum, but without
success, Paul Sleeman. of Washington,

Senator Lo rimer's Friends Are Denouncing

A Chicago dispatch says the Hamilton
Club, of that city, often called
the 'banner Republican club of the
nation, is greatly wrought up following
the Roowevelt-Lorimer incident
of Thursday.
Senator Lorimer has a host of

rumblings of revolt. All declared
they were anxious to rebuke President
Halten for acepting Col. Roosevelt's
ultimatum regarding the banquet.
The Senator's frends say they are
only waiting the cue from Mr. Lorim.er
and if he resigns his membership
from the clujb they will do
1'likewise. So far he not given the
word and has refused to talk on the
subject.
Senator Lorlmer's friends, with
considerable effort, maintaned silence
when asked by the newspaper
men for interviews bearing on the
situation. They then relieved themselves
by expressing their personal
views on the incident and everything
Rooeeveltian in words extremely tor
rid.
President Taft's meeting with
Senator Lorimer when in Chicago
last March, as tlie guest of the Hamilton
Club, is declared by mem,bers
to have the Roosevelt move all the
more unexpected.
When President Taft was here,
Senator Lorimer was a conspicious
guest at the various banquets and
receptions, and the President seemed
pleased to have the junior senator
from Illinois close at hand.
Those club members say that if the
President of the nation did not feel
there was any official impropriety in
meeting the Senator in public, they
did not apprehend that a private citizen
would consider it impossible to
attend the same public function with
the Senator. *

Scenes of Horror.
Twenty-nine lives were lost near
Ludington, 'M/ich., Friday when Pere
Marquette car ferry No. 18, bound
from Ludington to Milwaukee went
to the bottom of Lake Michigan
half way across the lake. The dead
include Capt. Peter Colty of I.udington,
S. K. Sezepanek, of Chicago,
purser and wireless operator, whose
signals of distress brought assistance
to the sinking steirmer, and two
members of the crew of car ferry
No. 1 7, who lost their lives in an
nffrwi im rociMin thn crew of N'o. I S.
shrouded in mystery. F. F. Pevin,
cal>in watch, said the boat was very
low at the stern when the lirst alarm
was given. He said they pushed 20
railroad cars into the lake to ease
the vessel, but without avail. Seymour
Cochrane, of Chicago, another
survivor, said he was reading a magazine
in his berth when a cabin boy
rapped at the door about 4.2 0 a. m.
and shouted that the bow was sinking.
Cochrane floated on a cabin door
until picked lip by No. 17. The
purser had given him $1,000 which
was due Cochrane's employers after
they had delivered the boat to the
Pere Marquette company, they having
leased her all summer. Hut Cochrance
could not load himself down
with the coin and tied the money
to the stairs rail as the boat went
down.
Many of the life boats were stove
in bv wreckage, tumbling in every
direction on the tossinig sea, the occupants
of the small boats being
thrown in . the water and many
d row nod.
The sum total of the catastrophe I
is told in the fatal figures, 20 lives
lost and the financial loss amounts
to $500,000.
The story of the loss of car ferry
No. 18 constitutes the most tragic I
and thrilling chapter yet written in
the history of Lake Michigan marine.
Leaving Ludington Thursday
night at 11.30 with a fair but stiff
wind and 2 0 cars loaded on deck,
the ferry made good weather for five
hours on its course to Milwaukee.
At 4.45 word was sent to Capt.
Peter Colty that his boat was rapidly
making water and that the pumps
were unable to keep even with the
inflow. VV'll full confidence in the
stability and seaworthiness of his
craft the veteran car ferry navigator
headed his ship with all speed to
Sheboygan on the Wisconsin side.
The pumps were worked to their
fullest capacity and all expedients
known to a skilled and resourceful
mariner resorted to.
Hut despite every effort the ter
rible fact dawned upon the captain
and on all on board that the boat
was gradually but surely sinking.
An effort way made to run a number
of railroad cars overboard and
thus lighten the load and gain a few
precious minutes. With great diflicultv
nine were dropped off the stern
of No. 18, but this gave the vessel
only slight and temporary relief.
The ship was doomed. Yet, notwithstanding
this important fact and
in the hope of saving both crew and
craft, the captain crowded his ship
to the utmost limit hoping to reach
shoal water. The effort was futile.
At 7.2 0 Friday morning time came
when the boat's bouyancy was no
longer sufficient to sustain it. Suddenly
without warning and before
the horrified gaze of 50 men on
board ferry No. 17, which had just
arrived on the scene in response to
a distress signal, the big black bow
of the ship rose high in the air, the
stern settled swiftly toward the bottom
and with a roar and crash like
an explosion the ship shot downward

The horrified onlookers on number

and petrified. There among the
surging waves were fellow beings

terror and chaos. In a
twinkling 2!t lives were snuffed out
and sixty strong men were precipe

it was hopeless.
Then began the rescue. Lowering
one of her life boats, containing
four sailors the crew of Number
17 began a work which marks many
of them as heroes. No sooner had
the tiny boat touched the angry waves
than it was hurled with tor ride
force against the side of the steel
steamer and crushed to a shapeless
mass.
Two of the sailors were rescued
by those on board while the other

QUITS THE RACE
GOV. PATTERSON WITHDRAWS
FROM CONTEST.
? ?.
The Bitter Piglit Against Him Krnts
With His Returniug His Nomination
to the Party.
Gov. M. R. Patterson, or Tennessee,
withdrew from the race to succeed
himself 011 Saturday night,
when he issued a long statement
from Nashville announcing the fact.
Governor Patterson was the nominee
of the regular faction of the
Democratic party and has been bitterly
opposed by the independent
State-wide prohibition Democrats,
who, in coalition with the Republicans,
elected a State judiciary la3t
month, defeating a ticket for which
Governor Patterson made a strenuous
campaign of the State.
On Wednesday, the 14th instant,
the independent Democratic meet in
Nashville in State convention, a majority
of the delegates going instructed
to vote for the endorsement of
B. W. Hooper, the Republican nominee
for Governor.
Governor Patterson, in his address
announcing his withdrawal, declares
he will not be an obstacle in
the way of his party's success at
Mw? nnllo linr will ho willintrlv coil
tribute in any way to the possibility
of success of the Republicans in
Tennessee.
He withdraws in the interest of
harmony and that Democratic factions
may get together to prevent
the loss of the State in November.
He makes reference to interference
of a Republican President in Tennessee
politics.
In an interview following the issuanc6
of the statement, Governor
Patterson declares that he has no
personal preference in the matter of
a Democratic nominee and that tie I
will take the stump for him, whoever
he may be.
Patterson's political career has
been a stormy one, including his defeat
of former Senator E. W. Carmack,
for the gubernatorial nomination
in a sensational campaign,
followed by the killing of Carmack
by the Coopers, their trial, which attracted
natior.al attention, and Patterson's
pardon of 1). 13. Cooper within
a few minutes after his conviction
was sustained by the Supreme Court.

DREAD HYDROPHOBIA
Report of l'ublic Health Service of
Federal ( overninent Says Ditteu^e
Is no "Kcspector of Heuson nor
Species of Mamjitnl."? Certain
Mad !><>g Fallacies Repudiated.
Hydrophobia is a reality and is a
respector of 110 particular season nor
species of manunval, says a public
health service report, issued Saturday
from Washington.
A. M. Stimson, its author, repudiates
certain mad dog fallacies and
advices those sceptical of the existence
of such a disease as rabie.s to
have their doubts dispelled at a
soientiiic laboratory. This report
from Surgeon General Wyman's bureau
admits rabbles may not uniformly
be fatal, though it is almost
so.
Pasteurization generally prevents
development. "We do know," says
the report, "that artificially immunity
can be conferred during the usual
incubation period. The possibilities
of anti-rabies serum have not
been exhausted by trial. It deserves
further investigation, but our present
data does not warrant us to expect
very much benefit from this
sou rce.
Despite discouraging results or
pa?st experiences at cure by drugs,
continued efforts to And an effectual
remedy are weighed, the most promising
lino of investigation appearing
"to be based, not upon the phsioligieal
action of the drug, but upou its
action upon the parasite."
Mad (logs are not always wildeyed
and frothing at the mouth and
| determined upon the attacking of
| every person they meet. The report
contends that when the attack first
begins to develop dogs are frequently
more playfully inclined; "the rabid
dogs is sick; he is not necessarily
running wild and furious; he is frequently
obedient up to a late stage,
and often seems to have a bone in
his throat, or to have sustained injury
to the back."
Another fallacy is the general belief
that rabid dog is sick; he is
not necessarily in the summer than
in other months. The explanation
is that more people are moving abort
and become subject to attack. Nor
is the malady confined to any climate
or region. It is likely to occur
in the Artie or the equatorial
jungles. Dogs, wolves, coyotes and
skunks seem to be especially susceptible.
But not even with the canine tribe
is the disease of spontaneous origin.
This fact renders isolation or destruction
ineffective; elimination of
infected animals is the only sure
preventive. In this way Great Britain
has eradicated the distemper. "If
all rabid dogs could he prevented
from biting other animals," says the
report, "rabies would within a year
be a historical cusiosity of medicinee,
an illegitimate field of research for
the investigator in pure pathology,
a plaything for the controversialist."
The mad-stone and chicken breasts
as cures for the madness are arraigned
as real dangers because they

bito other persons. The average
period of incubation is a littlo over
ten weeks, but in some persons the
effect of a mad dog's bite is not
manifested for more than a year. *

bank of Seattle, on the steamship

Discovery of the theft was announced
Sunday. The stolen gold
weighed 2.r)0 pounds. When it left
Fairbanks on a Youkon river steamer
for Dawson and Whitehorse, the gold
was contained in three wooden boxes
and was in the care of the Alaska
Pacific Express company. When the
boxes were opened by the Canadian
customs officers at Dawson the gold
bars were found to be, as stated, in
the express company's papers.
The boxes were opened again at
tho United States assay office in

discovered. One contained pigs of
lead instead of gold. The seals of
the boxes were intact when th^y
