WASHINGTON, Fob.. 1-georetary. Bal
linger, after much persuasion, has decided
to employ counsel to appear, before' the
Balllnger-Plnehot Investigating committee
to defend his side Of the case..' Mr. Bel
linger thus far had ateadfastly refused
to ennw3 counsel Ixt his c?n bshsJf, de
'clarlng that he had nothing to conceal.
Secretary Neison, chairman of tho com
mittee, expressed the attitude of the com
mittee as favoring the presence of counsel
for both sides, wherefor Dalllnger finally
has decide -to follow the sTiggastlon.
The attorney employed by Mr. Balllnger
will also represent Fred Dennett, commis
sioner of the land offioe ' and H. H.
Schwarts, chief of the field service.
Western Man elected,. ' , , .
Although his same has not bee divulged,
the attorney who will represent the secre
tary and the others included In .the Olavis
charges Is said to, bo a western lawyer and
thoroughly famllnr with the land situation
as It enters Into the present controversy ,
A telegram , was sent him today asking
whether he would come to Washington for
the purpose ahl he replied that he would
start at onee. ' "
As a matter of fact the cross-examination
consisted largely of questions asked by the
domoc ratio members of tho 00m mitt no .and
designed to accentuate the political phases
of the testimony Qlavls had , previously
given, '
Qlovls and thoss Interested with htm are
represented before the oommlttee by three
lawyerf who have, spent Severn) weeks pre-
parlug for the hearing end- who know the
history of the, case by .heaty. .r vf:i-,i
. Few members of the Investigating com
mutes have shown thy familiarity with the
records and Senator Nelsojv himself re
ferred to tha situation as "unfortunate.
Committee Wants Other aide. -
The matter, It .was said, was called to
tho attention of Attorney Central . Wickw
sham to see It some rervsentatlve of the
Department of Justice might not . aot aa
counsel for the government departments
which are under Investigation.' It was
pointed out the only way the committee
could got at tho facta was to have the
case presented in orderly fashion from
both sides and that It was Unfair to the
committee to plaoe upon them, the entire
burden of cross-examination to test the
credibility of tho witness. - " ' ;
This action may delay the further pro
ceedings of the committee, however, for it
will require some time for an attorney to
acquaint himself with ths case. .
Mr. Olavis, who asked to be relieved from
further attendance at tha session, as soon
as possible, In order that he may return
west, will not be excused untll tha attor
ney representing "tho other side" has had
an opportunity to ' crossex amine him.

(From a Staff Correfpondrnt.)
DBS MOINER, Fb. 2 (Ppcchl Tee
gram.) AttorneyOenersl fyers renedered
to tha stata auditor today an Important
decision affecting "a mailer which has
caused trouble In the administration of the
bank laws. It seems that a numbsr of
bonks have, been In the habit of buying
government bonds In December, hulillng
them until after January , then dU-pjslng
of them and claiming exemption from
taxation to tho extent of face of these
bonds. Tho state auditor has siught a
way to prevent this, as In some cftffes It Is
merely a matter of bookkeeping.
The attorney general decides that the
question is one of the good faith of the
purchases and genulncss of the tranxaction,
and not the tlma of the purchase. To
break up the system It will be necessary
to consider the evidence that it Is merely
to escape taxation that the bonds have
ben nominally bought. He also holds
that there la no way to forbid a state or
savings bank keeping its reserve In a Na
tional bank, unites It is shown-that the
bank Is unsound. The state auditor finds
that where a National bank is reserve
agent, he has no way of knowing whether
tho security Is good.

oost per month of the Institutions Is about
$300,000. It Is found that the support fund
at several Institutions is net enough to
maintain tho institutlona and the leglsla
ture will be asked to Increase same.
Iconic' for Coal Troubles.
Secretary Stamm- of the State Mining
lng board -Declares his belief that there will
be a coal shortage In Iowa In the spring
far worse than tho recent one. Investiga
tion has shown that stocks of coal are all
exhausted and the mines are working hard
to keep pace with the steady demand. It Is
certain there will be cessation Of work, "at
least for a short time, when the adjustment
of wages eomea on In April. In anticipa
tion of this tho large consumers are already
buying coal. '' , ' '

ation Fails.
DES MOlNES, la., Feb. tIn three opin
ions given today to State Auditor Bleakly,
Attorney General . Byers holds that banks-
may buy government bonds, just prior to
the. visit of the sssesaor, but that If the
purchase Is not In good faith, the state
can tax the money Invested In the bonds;
secondly, that the state auditor has no
miihnrlty tn direct the place ' In which
tavlngs banks shall deposit their reserve,
und lastly, that loan and trust companies
may 'have an authorized capital In excess
of their paid up capital. The first opinion
places on the state, auditor the burden of
determining whether bond purchases are
In good faith. ' ,

I.INCOLJ. Fah. 1 (PpeclsJ.)-Ono of the
maAAtnt nlerM of news circulated around the
campus at the stato university In msny
weeks was riven out this anernoon in
t ie
the announcement mat v. wi. no''"i
. l M . . -1 1-4, fall
iruara on tne uomnuBnw rirTn, -
I foot ball next fall. Ho dropped out of
i school last December on account of ill-
! ncss, but Intended to return last week to
take the semester", examinations. He did
i not arrive until yesterday, too late to make
up the back work, and the record in the
roglstrar's office shows that he failed to
oomolete his school work for the first
nemesteir of the present school year.
By a rule of tho Missouri Valley con
ference an athlete must complete tho work
of the semester In which he takes part In
athletics. If, after the close of a season.
he drops out of school without getting his
credit, and expecting to return tho next
eomenter, he Is Ineligible. Having failed
to complete the requirements of last semes
ter, Wolcott will not bo eligible until he
has been In the university for six months.
Even thotigh he should register this semes
ter he will not be able to compete In- foot
bail next season.
The loss of Wolcott would not be ouch a
terrible blow to Nebraska's gridiron pros
pects If It were alone; there are three other
similar cases which threaten to make the
Cornhuekers weak In foot ball again. Bent-
loy, Potter and Warner, three other play
ers whom the coachea had depended upon
for next season have dropped out of school
and will not be eligible. Bentley, who was
quarter laM fall, dropped out after the
close of the foot ball seasoti, but at that
time it waa not thought this loss would
be greatly felt as Potter waa then In
school.
Yotjng Potter was a frfhmn Id
and waa by far the best quarterback ms
terlal In school. He was almost certain of
making the 'varsity at quarter next season
and his presence was needed to settle the
quarterback situation, which has been a
burning one for over a year.
An attack of typhoid fever laid Potter
low, however, and he waa forced to with
draw. He will not become eligible until
the fall of 1911.
E. Warner was a freshman end of last
fall, who played a sensational game on the
scrubs. He played a better game than the
'varsity wing men and he was assured
of a place on tho eleven next season. Ho
was counted on to take Johnson's posi
tion at left ' and.
Wolcott, Potter and Warner were all
stars and undoubtedly would have been
spectacular performers for: the Cornhusk
ers next year. Wolcott featured In the
famouB atone wall defense of the Nebraska
eleven last' season and he would have
helped give tha team another strong line.
With the loss of theee threV players and
Bentley, tho Corohuskers will have to hunt
for quarterback, end and guard material.
These four players were men upon whom
"Kiihg" Cole and the students were de
pending to glvo tho Comhuskers -a cham
pionship team. Thoir dropping out simply
xrnts a big hole in tho Nebraska; hooeo and
makes It appear- certain that the ocarlet
and crem will have to go through . another
disastrous fall. ,
Potter and Warner, wore tfie cream of tha
freshman lot; Bentley a faithful veteran;
ana woicoi was a power. In. tho line.
Met probably can ba found for Woloott's
place, but It will likely taken another year
to bring forth players of the caliber of
Potter and Warner for guarter and end,
respectively.
