Washington, April 29. Interest in the Plncbot-Ballinger investigation before the senate committee . became in .tense today when Richard A. Ballinger, secretary ot interior, took the witness stand and told his aide of the conservation. cpntrove'rsjr and charges made against him by Pinchot, Glavis and others. - He told of the great personal sacrifico he bad made in accept' ing tho office of the commissioner un

der Roosevelt, persuasion being

brought to bear by Secretary Garfield,

an old college chum of bis and Roose

velt himself. Balllnger said his law

firm had practically no business with the land office in the interest of the

clients at that time. Roosevelt told Balllnger that as he had cleaned up Seattle he wanted him to clean up the

land office. Balllnger proceeded to

relate the conditions of the abuses

exlstiag in the land office when he took hold and :how h' installed new regulations regarding the Alaskan

lands to prevent a monopoly. Deny

inR the charges made by special agent

Jones, a Olavls witness. Balllnger

classified him as a "knocker" and said r he .had "knocked"' against his own

brother-in-law. . Room Was Crowded. The room was crowded when Ballln

ger stood up and was sworn by Chair

man Nelson In a formal way. ."This Is R. A. Balllnger, secretary of the Interior," was Mr,. ,Vortreca first ques-

' "Yes. sir,", replied Mr. Balllnger. He then proceeded r to ' give a' brief biographical sketch of himself. , He read , telegrams from Senator Piles of Wash

ington, Secretary Garfield and from

President Roosevelt They all went to' show that Mr. Balllnger, had not

Made Big aerlfice. $ He considered tbat he made great ' personal sacrifice , In , becoming commissioner of the land office in March, J0O7, he said. But did so because Roosevelt had , expressed a desire to have such a man at the head of the ; land office. Balllnger said that when fee came to Washington Roosevelt '4 to him. "I am glad that you are .?.

v Anyooay woo count vieau up ocauia o i you did, can clean up the land office."

. r I understood that . I would have to

carry on some heroic methods," said

' Balllnger. He told of discovering

$900,000 In the hands of receivers of

'public moneys, which was not properly protected. He had this money brought into the treasury. ' He said he did not know Clarence Cunningham, when he came Into the office and had no knowledge of coat lands In Alaska. In fact the land office knew very little of the actual field condition. . Touching on the statement of Olavls, made before the committee to the effect, that he had given the names of the claimants ot the coal lands to Balllnger it 1007. the latter

characterised it as a "deliberate and wllfull lie."

Washington,. April 29. W. , E. D. Stokes, Jr., aged 14. and George Eltx, aged lO, both of New York, yesterday made elaborate arguments before the senate committee on commerce in opposition to the bill introduced by Senator Depew to regulate wireless telegraph instruments. The measure seeks to give the government the right to control the air for the transmission of wireless messages In order to avoid Interferences, which are now a source ot great annoyance-to the sending of

wirless messages.

The lads represent the Amateur
