CLASHES ENLIVEN THE SESSION Attempt to Show that President's Letter Exonerating Wltneaa Was Freuared n the Interior Department. WASHINGTON, May 6.-The cross-examination of Secretary Ballinger by Attor ney Brandeis of counsel for the "prosecu tion" before the Balllnger-Plnchot Investi gating committee today afforded the com mittee and the room full of spectators one sensation after another. Tha secretary and the attorney fenced back and forth, mimicking each other In tone and gesture. Balllnger repeatedly appealed to the com mittee for protection from the "Insolence" of his tormentor, the latter apparently de lighting In the growing anger of the wit ness. The majority of the committee took the part of the witness. The examination today had reference principally to the preparation by the presi dent of his letter of September 13, which exonerated the secretary of the charges of Special Agent L. It. Glavts and directed the dismissal of the latter. Mr. Brandeis through his questions brought out that although the president did not receive the answers of Mr. Bal linger and his associates, his letter was Issued Just one week later, following a busy week at Beverly, filled with golf, speeches and preparations for his approach ing transcontinental trip. His evident ef fort was to show that the president did not himself, prepare the letter. Ho also tried to show by alleged Inaccuracies in the letter that It was based upon misinforma tion from the Interior departnunt. Letters from Garfield. Mr. Ballinger read a number of letters exchanged between himself and Jnmes U. Garfield and Henry M. Copp, a Washing ton lawyer, subsequent to the ;ast national election In reference to prominence which had been given his name in connection with the portfolio of secretary of the Interior. In his letter to Garfield, he referred to the lasting friendship and confidence he had for Mr. Garfield, and that he hoped he would be continued as the head of the Interior department. Garfield's reply was equally friendly in tone and began: "My Uear IJick:" Mr. Copp'a letter asked for a private In terview In Washington in which he wished to explain "the cruel influence which the Northern Pariflc railroad has In the secre tary's office at present." He (wrote that "the Influence of the Pacific roads has been notorious even under democratic ad ministrations." ' Clash Over Trln to Beverly. Mr. Brandeis then took the witness In hand. He had proceeded only a short time in his cross-examination when another sharp clash occurred. The lawjer had asked the witness why he had gone to Beverly to see the preslden-. a.'ter he had prepared In writing all of the Information In the possession of his department, bear ing on the Cunningham cases. Mr. Balllnger said he went to Beverly because he had been invited by letter, whereupon Mr. Branded asked him to point out the paragraph In tha litter containing the Invitation. Mr. Balllnger read a paragraph. "Poea that contain any invitation to come to Beverly?" demanded Mr. Brandeis. "Strictly speuklng. no." "Then why did you g' to Beverly?" "Because I wanted to." Mr. L'enby (republican) broka In Impa tiently; "I tli ink this Una of cross-exam- that our offer to refund the purchase price on demand has never been taken advantage of. Our guarante to save you $3.00 to $10.00 is an honest business proposition. Although feebly imitated, this money saving proposal is just as effective to day as the day we inaugurated it, some 18 months ago.

Ination Is extraneous." he said, "and I ob ject to Mr. Brandel further wasting the committee's time with Irrelevant ques tions." Messrs. Jamas and Graham took sharp issue with Mr. Denby and a long argument followed. Mr. Brandeis retorted that Ver trees had closely questioned Mr. Olavis when he was on the stand, "four whole days being taken up with his cross-examination," he said.
