An Interesting; controversy is pending
k.i.n Rwratarr of the Interior Ballln-
and Glfford Plnchot, cnier 01 mo
fUrvlca of the IJeparimeni 01
trade A. Hlnkley, here on Wednesday,
spent the night in the police station.
Mrs. Hinkley's statement that the bul
let which entered her neck and came out
through her mouth was fired by her
daughter, is vigorously denied by Mr.
Mayfleld.
"My mother's whole -Story is ridicu
lous." said the prisoner today. "I came
to Chicago from Mexico to give her stock
In the mining company, not to sell it to
her. My mother either accidentally ahot
herself while planning to shoot me, or
tried to commit ulclde."
Mrs. Mayfleld Intimated that It might
be well to Inquire into her mother's men
tal condition, and continued: "I have
six letters from my aunt my mother's
sister), Mrs. J. L. Hutchinson, of Streat
or, 111., which will help me. In each of
these letters my aunt warned me to keep
away from my mother.
Mrs. Mayfleld quoted from one of the
letters as follows: "Dear Agnes If I
were in your place I would avoid your
mother because I feel that she will do
you mischief if your husband does not
come to her terms."
In a second letter, Mrs. Hutchinson Is '
quoted as saying: "You know how your
mother Is she will either rule or ruin.
I fear for you If you refuse to turn over
the 290 acres of mining land in Mexico.'
Mrs. Mayfleld stated that her mother's
hatred of her began In Chicago when she
married Dr. Mayfleld.

demned with a degree of freedom these

Congress Blocks Pinonot.
Months ago a resolution was passed by
Congress providing that no new forestry
reservations should be created, and no
existing reservations should be enlarged
i nnm Washington. Idaho. Wyoming,
Colorado and Montana, except by act of
Congress. Up to that time the reserva
tions had been created and enlarged Dy
Presidential proclamation. Mr. Plnchot
then found in Mr. Garfield, the Secretary
of the Interior, a friend. Mr. Plnchot
persuaded Mr. Garfield to withdraw as
dminlstratlve sites In different localities
from 60 to MO or 300 acres near lorestry
iwrraliDlu.
1-non the change of Administration.
-h.n lr Rnlllnzer succeeded Mr. Gar
field a new oractlce was promptly Inau
a-urated. Mr. Ballinger decided that to
withdraw the so-called administrative
itn wsa a. violation of the law, and the
result te that the controversy has been
referred to the Attorney-General for so
lution.
Secretary Ballinger has other griev
ances against Mr. Plnchot. Not only is
v. , .v.. i n that Mr Pinrhot has
been guilty of nullifying the will of COLLECTS
Congress, but ne reeis a pn-ujji in
terest In a controversy which Mr.
Plnchot has raised and has carried to
the President.
Republicans Believe If Colonel
Wants to Rnn Against Tammany
He May Get Chance.
PARIS. July 2S- John S. Wise. Jr.. of
New York, who Is now In Paris, says that
ex-President Roosevelt, Just prior to
his departure from New York on his
African hunting expedition, promised him
and other Republicans in New York that
he would return in time for the Mayor
alty campaign. Mr. Wise says he has not
gl"en up the hope that Mr. Roosevelt will
head the Mayoralty ticket In New York
this Autumn.
NEW YORK. July IS. The views of
John S. Wise, Jr., as cabled from Paris
today on the possibility of ex-President
Roosevelt entering the New York May
oralty campaign this Fall, are In line with
report circulated here last Spring, and
again within the past few weeks.
Colonel Roosevelt s friends in the local
Republican ranks have long had him In
mind as a candidate, provided he can be
Induced to lead the fight against Tam
many. They believe he Is the most for
midable nominee that could be put In the
field.
It was said In influential circles today
that if Colonel Roosevelt wanted to run
for Mayor It would be difficult to keep
the nomination away from him.
2000 ANIMALS
Roosevelt's Specimens Include AH
Varieties of African Wild Life.
Plnchot Carries Tales.
Last February Mr. Garfield, acting
UDon the recommendation of Mr.
Plnchot. withdrew . from settlement
manv acres of land located along
The withdrawal was based
upon a policy to hold In control of the
government ail water sites located upon
public lands. The withdrawal of these
lands raised a loud protest throughout
the West, and Mr. Ballinger, promptly
upon taking the office of Secretary of
the Interior, rescinded the order of his
predecessor and restored to entry the
lands that had been wimarawn. oud
tenuentlv Mr. Ballinger ordered that
restricted areas surrounding water-
power sites should be withdrawn from
settlement.
Mr. Plnchot went to President Taft
and told him how water power trusts
would gobble up valuable sites in the
public domain. The president was lm
nressed with the showing made by Mr.
Plnchot. He sent for his Secretary of
the Interior. Mr. Ballinger was asked
to exmaln what safeguards he had
thrown out to protect for the public
the valuable water power sites. Mr.
Ttallnzer exDerlenced no difficulty in
convincing- the President that his ac
tion had been conservative, and that
he was right.
Throughout the controversy Secre
tary of Agriculture Wilson has re
mained a mere spectator. Mr. Plnchot
Is supposed to have great Influence,
but whether It will be sufficient to
keep him in his present pos...lon in the
face of the opposition of Secretary Bal
linger, remains to be developed.

the honor of laying down my humble life
for my country. Your aentence of death
Is perfectly illegal. You are all-powerful
and can do what you like; but remember
. we will hare the power some time. That
Is all I have to say."

Washington Through Roosevelt.
WASHINGTON", July 23. Ex-Presi
dent Roosevelt's African hunting trip has
resulted in the enriching of the National
Zoological Park, of Washington, with
an exceptional collection of live African
birds and animals, many of which are not
represented in the park exhibit. While
Mr. Roosevelt's purpose was to make a
collection of dead birds and mammals for
the National Museum, working in con
nection with the Smithsonian Institution,
his visit to Juju farm, near Nairobi, re
cently, where he and his party were
guests of W. W. McMillan, an American
owning the big estate, resulted in the
presentation of collection of live animals
to the Zoological Park by Mr. McMillan

Who Has Dismissed the Bo
livian Minister.
Dr. Jose Kigueroa Alcorta,
President of the Argentine Re
public has broken off diplomatic
relations with Bolivia on ac
count of the treatment of its
ministers. The Argentine is In
volved In the dispute between
Bolivia and Peru by the fact
that the President of the Argen
tine has rendered a decision giv
ing the rich Acre territory to
Pern. Not only has Bolivia failed
to accept this decision, but the
Argentine minister has been at
tacked and the flag insulted.
Bolivia, which is making all
this trouble, has a population
of about 2.250,000. of which
about one-half is Indian and
only about 13 per cent white. In
past years, Bolivia has had
boundary disputes with Brazil
nnd Chile. The army of Bolivia
is only a few thousand men. but
the reserve forces to be called
under Its laws is about 320.000.
All Bolivians from 23 to SO years
old are liable to military service.
