SUE "COLLIER'S"
SECRETARY OP INTERIOR
WAXES EXCEEDING WKOT1I
Dei-lures Attack Made in "Collier's
Weekly" Ig Malicious Effort to Tra
duce lUni PrqpoHCH to Ilrliig Tliem
to Justice Is Charged With Pro
featiloiuil Dishonor.
Washington. "If they think they
can attack mo with Impunity, they
are mistaken," said Richard A. Bal
lhiger. secretary of the Interior, re
ferring to the publications concerning
him which ure appearing in Collier'
Weekly.
He announced emphatically that he
proposed to "bring them to Justice in
due time."
While Mr. Balllnger would not in
dicate when or in what form pro
ceedings in luw would be Instituted
agaiiuit the periodical, he said that If
he lived long enough It would "suffer
11 the penalties the law will warrant,"
Justice Will he Demanded.
Tho statement that lie Intends seek
ing redresS through the courts was
made In discussing the article in the
current issue of Collier's, headed "Bal
llnger, Shyster," in which the secre
tary of the Interior Is accused of an
"unpardonable breuch of professional
honor." In connection' with a bank
ruptcy case in the United States dis
trict court In Seattle.
"For the malicious, villainous and
untruthful attacks of which this Is
imply another chapter," he said, "I
propose to bring them to Justice."
"Every suggestion they make," he
added, "bus been thoroughly covered
by testimony and orders of the Unit
ed States district court for the district
of Washington, northern division, ex
onerating me from the slightest sus
picion of any irregularity or Impro
priety. They have deliberately sent
their ugents and emissaries through
out the country to traduce me by a
campaign of vilification that is not
warranted by any f.icU whatever. If
they think they can attack me with
Impunity, they are mistaken."
Magazine Makes Charge.
The article In Saturday's Issue of
Collier's presents charge? against Mr.
Ballinger In connect. on with his ac
tion as attorney general years ago for
Heckniann & Hansen, shipbuilders at
Seattle. It charges him with "an un
pardonable breach of professional
honor."
After the shipbuilding firm's af
fairs had been wound up. It is alleged
that an effort was made by Meckmann
to have his estate reopened, believing
that his firm had not been fairly dealt
with.
It is charged that the referee of the
federal court appointed by Judge C.
H. Hanford, who Is described as a
cloe friend of Mr. Balllnger, "white
washed" the secretary of the interior
and the other attorneys concerned.
Later, it was said, Jcrold L, Pinch, at
torney for lleckmann & Hansen In the
latter proceedings, filed a petition In
Judge Haiif"id's court, asking for the
disbarment of Mr. Ballinger and the
other attorneys. It was referred to
the Bar association, which. It was
charged, "whitewashed" Mr. Ballln
ger. but refused to take any action
gainst Finch.
Exoneration Is Complete.
In refutation of these charges, Mr.
Balllnger exhibited certified copies of
the proceedings in the federal court
la Seattle, In which' he was exonerat
ed by Judge Hanford. the master in
chancery and a committee of the fed
eral Bar association of the charges
preferred by Finch.
In denying the' petition lo reopen
the case, Judge Hanford said that the
accusation against Mr. Ballinger was
"not supported by a srlintilla of evi
dence." The committee of the Bar associa
tion which exonerated Mr Ballinger
staled that the charges were made
without sufficient Investigation of the
facts.
The committee said that Finch had
ot been actuated by malice In making
theallpgntlons anil for that reason he
should not be debarred, but stated
that he "Justly deserved the censure
of the bur of the federal court."
al reputation who will be present are
Professor B. C. Pickering of Harvard
university, Professor Campbell of Lick
observatory and Professors Michel
son and Chamberlain of Chicago, Pro
fessor RIcco of the Royal Italian sta
tion at Mount Etna has accepted an
Invitation and every European nation,
according to Director Hale of the
Carnegie observatory, will send Its
most noted savants.
The gathering will In a measure, be
to celebrate the Installation of the ISO
foot tower telescope that has been or
dered. .This will be the largest In
strument In the world for the study
of the sun's rays.
WHO IS CHAMPION IX
MIODl.KW EKiHT CLASS?
New York. -It is afloat time we
were deciding the Interesting ques
tion: Who Is the middleweight
champion? Stanley Kcichel used lo
hold this honor but for a long time
the laurels have been fluctuating be
tween Hilly l'apke unci Ketchel. UmB
ford stands u fair show now of get
ting n c rack at the title himself.
Ever since l'apke knocked Willie
Lewis cold In three rounds In Paris
there has been talk of n catch be
tween him and Ketchel. Stanley as
serts that he Is back In the game for
keeps now mid Ih'it he has cut mil
the foolish business.
A fight between l'apke ami Ketchel
would ninke a beautiful fistic battle
and If Ketchel and I.angford do not
settle their differences before hand,
It s only fair that the winner give the
Boston tar baby a chance.
Langford must always bo reckoned
with as a middleweight champion. Ho
Is a queer fighter, showing up poorly
when his hackers think him strong
est and winning In grand style when
he Is supposed to be out of form.
But It Is high time that we settled
this middleweight championship question.
ASTRONOMERS WILL
MEET AT MOUNT WILSON
Pasadena, Cal. As guests of the
scientists connected w ith the Carnegie
bservatory of Mount Wilson, many

students In the world will gather here
next August. Thirty of the leading
scientists of Europe and two score
Americans have accepted invitations
to attend the sclentiric conclave.

DOUBLE YOLKED EGGS
PROVED HATCH ABLE
New York. The mooted question as
to whether double yolked eggs are
hatchable seems set by Robert T.
Buckland, an electrical contractor of
College Point, Long Island. The hen
sat upon 14 eggs and hatched 15
chicks.
"Lookey here, Biddy," said Buck
land, after counting the hatched
brood and figuring a bit upon a piece
of paper, "you have exceeded 100 per
cent. I set you upon 14 eggs and you
have produced 15 chicks, a record of
107 1-7 per cent."
Now, figuring is not In Biddy's line,
but she clucked proudly to her
brood and began giving them their
first lesson In earning a living, show
ing them how advisable It was to
stand upon other's necks to get what
was coming to them.
POOR SEAMSTRESSES
REMEMBERED IN WILL
New York. Poor seamstresses In
the city of New Tork are (240,000
richer as the result of a decision ren
dered In the supreme court by Jus
tice Ulanchard. '
The money will come from the es
tate of Henry Howard Paul, an Eng
lish actor and playwright, who died In
1305, at the age of 80, leaving an Am
erican and an English will. Harrison
rey FIske and Henry Tyrell, his two
executors here, were directed to dis
tribute $40,000 in the Union Trust
company nmong charities "that assist
poor needlewomen."
Under the English will $260,000
was distributed, but Mrs. Isabella M.
Manley of Brooklyn, a sister of the
actor, sued to have the American will
declared Invalid as too Indefinite.
COLORED MAN TO TRY
TOR A LEGATION POST
Washington. Benjamin Bundjy, a
negro of Cincinnati, who passed the
stale department examination for the
consular service, has signified his
willingness to accept the secretary
ship of a diplomatic post, and will
receive an appointment In case he
passes the examination for that ser
vice The fact that Bundy Is willing
to accept an appointment as a secre
tary of legation solves a problem
which would have caused the state
department some embarrassment, as
lhere are very few places In the con
sular service to which a man of his
race could properly bo appointed.
WALLA WALLA WOMEN
WANT RIGHT TO VOTE
Walia Walla. Representatives of
the Walla Walla Woman's Suffrage
society appeared before the Farmers'
lnloi at the regular monthly meet
ing and asked their support In secur

ance this afternoon was light, owing
to the fact that spring seeding Is be
ing rushed and the farmers decided
not to take action In the matter until
n larger number are present. Prom-

Drama as Kind of School.
Paris. A new idea In dealing with
"psychological plays" is being carried
out by M. Porel, the director of the
Vaudeville of Paris. The plays of M.
Paul Bourget, of the highest Interest
and of educative value, have been giv
en at the Vaudeville lor some time
past.
','Un Divorce," which had a phe
nomenal run, is followed now by "La
Barricade," and M. Porel has thought
that It would be Instructive and In
teresting that the public should hear
before the performances of the play
the opinions of certain eminent pol
iticians on the questions treated In
the drama. He has arrnged for a
series of short lectures on the prob
lems staged by M. Bourget An ad
dress will be delivered at each Thurs
day matinee before the rise of the
curtain, and, In order that the dis
cussion of the play may be as com
plete as possible, M. Porel has In
vited the different political parties.
