they were overtaken by Night Marshal

he was abroad at. that hour; not being

Forces Witness to Admit Ball:
inger Did Not Disclose Case
; Fully to Taft. . .
(Vnlted Frns tVaawd Wire.)
"Washington, April 1. E. C. Finney,
an assistant to Secretary of. the Inferior
Balllnger, testified - today before the
congressional ' investigation' committee
that Balllnger had never written a eon-
tract in the Truckee reclamation project
Balllnger had been criticised for his at
tltude In the matter, because it was al
leged that the government - would have
surrendered valuable water rights. Fin
ney declared that Balllnger had nothing
to do with contracts affecting the Ta
hoe (Navada-Callfovnla) project He
said the reclamation service had sought
to acquire additional water for the
Truckee-Carson : project The forest
service protested s gainst the terms of
ths contract And the matter since then
bad been taken snder advisement by de
partment officials, .'v:,,...;- ,
The witness then described. ths prep
aration of the Interior department s de
cision which terminated the plan ef Sec
retary Garfield for a cooperative certlfl
cate plan in connection with the recla
mation projects, permitting settlers to
work out part Of their indebtedness.
Finney declared that after the attor
ney general had declared : the plan to
be Illegal, Director Newell of the recla
mation ' service protested and the in
rterlor department again submitted ths
decision . to ths attorney general, t who
reaffirmed his-former decision -
Attorney Brandela is believed to have
made a strong point today when he
forced flnniv ta admit that certain avl-
dence waV withheld from Taft when Bal
llnger reported the Cunningham
claims. Finney said that 'When Ballln
ger filed tils answer there were letters
in the files showing that. Olavls was
taking up the Cunalnghsnii cases with
the 'Seattle district' attorney. '.These
letters were not given to Taft, the wit
ness admitted. -, . . - v. t '
Brandets ' aaked whether the .letters
would disprove Attorney General Wick
ershara's finding that Glavls 7iabitually
procrastinated" id the work on ths Cunningham-case.

. Finney replied that he did not knew.
He added that this , evidence probably
was not sent to the attorney general. -
change hs had . in- bis pockets, leaving
him to the mercy of the weather without
a fire, which is a privilege accorded the
common drunks. The night was one of
the coldest for the past two months.
The news spread like wildfire and by
daylight many gathered at the Jail to
secure Mr, Patton s release. 'A messen
ger ' was dispatched for Police Judge
Koiston who; after, bearing the condi
tlons of the arrest, ordered the prison
er's- 4-eleaae... This the jnarahal xef used
to do and "was promptly fined $20 for

The bills will be pressed with 'all
