Congress hotel by refusing to sit at

The incident came unheraldel. The
program of the event has for days

others Mould sit at the speukers’ ta

The occurrence startle!! politicians

banquet, came with characteristic ab
ruptness from Colonel Roosevelt.
The Hamilton Club delegation, head
ed by former Judge John H. Batten,
president of the club, joined Colonel
Roosevelt at the fair grounds in Free
port, Ill.
The colonel at once began question
ing members of the delegation con
cerning the banquet.
"is Speaker Cannon to be there?”
ho asked.
"Yes,” Mr. Batten replied; “he has
accepted the invitation.”
‘‘How about Senator Lorimer?”

ties to resign his office.”
The foregoing sums up the findings
>f the four democratic members of
the Ballingor-Pinchot congressional
Investigating committee.
The Republican members issued no
report of any kind bearing on the con-
traversy.
An Independent report was given
out by Mr. Madtson, the insurgent Re
publican from Kansas, which declares
also that Mr. Ballinger "should not be
retained, that he was an unfaithful
trustee of the people’s interests, an
enemy of conservation,” and that the
barges of Gifford Plnchot should be

These findings will be printed and

LAKE FERRY SINKS.
29 Lives Lost When Car Ferry Went
Down in Lake Michigan.
Ludington, Mich. — Twenty-nine
lives were lost when Pere Marquette
car ferry No. 18, bound from Luding
ton to Milwaukee, went to the bottom
of Lake Michigan half-way across the
lake.
The dead include Capt.' Peter Kil
ty of Ludington; .S. F. Sezepanek of
Chicago, purser and wireless operator,
whose signals of distress brought as
sistance to the sinking steamer, and
two members of the crew of car ferry
No. 17, who lost their lives in an ef
fort to rescue the crew of No. 18.
The steamship company issued a
list of thirty-five names of survivors
of the wreck, all members of the
crew, and most, of whom were brought
here.
The cause of the disaster is envel
oped In mystery. F. F. Pevin, cabin
watch, said that the boat was very
low at the stern when the first alarm
was given. He said they pushed 29
railroad cars Into the lake to ease
the vessel, but without avail.
The sum total of the catastrophe is
told in the fatal figures—29 lives lost
and a financial loss erceeding half a
million- dollars.

WHAT MAKES A NEGRO?
Race Problem Before Supreme Tribu
nal of the United States.
• Washington.—Just what constitutes
a negro in the United States may be
a question which the United States
Supreme court will be asked to set
tle In the near future. One-sixteenth
negro blood in an individual classi
fies him as a negro in the District of
Columbia, according to a decision by
Justice Daniel T. Wright of the Dis
trict supreme court, in the case of
Isabel 1. Wall, an 8-year-old child, who
recently was barred from a white pub
lic school because the principal had
information that she was of negro pa
rentage.
The father of the girl attempted to
force the board of education to rein
stato the child, but failed. Justice
Wright decided she was a negro. The
case was appealed.
