more are dangerously i'll.
Poison having been suspected, the servants
are all in prison, but there is no evidence, ex-

foo nm Public Lands be authorized, during the
recess of Congress, to proceed in the investiga-

tons in relation to such frauds, and the con,
duct of the officers appointed to superintend
said sales by law, directed to such persons !. IN
the several land districts as he may select Tor
the purpose. And, also that he be authorized
to extend said investigation into the conduct or
the commissioners or agents appointed by the
President to locate the Indian reservations un-
der the treaties with the Greeks, Choctaws and
Chckasaws, and the frauds, if any, which may
have been committed in the purchase or sale
of said reservations, and the testimony so tax
en- shall be reported to the next session OF Con-
