which will only leave u distance of 500
miles to the Pole for them to ACCOM-
plish. This distance and return is cal
culatcd to take twenty days although
ample preparations will be made for ,
much longer voyage.
The project SO far seems entirely
feasible and promises to disclose the
mystery of the polar regions, unless,
per chance, the balloon aud vovarers
get sucked in at the hole believed to
exist at the Pole by believers in the
hollow globe theory. In that case we
bespeak hospitablc reception for the
voyagers, by the long mourned fo,
and lost ten tribes supposed to inhaLi,

TIE NATIONS DISIlONOR.
Twelve Congressional Imvestiyn.
tiDss l'hder Way.

tFrom the Chicago Tribune, April IL
No fewer than twelve different invcS-
legations have been put under way
since the beginning of the session, be-
sides those which have been made by
the regular Committees on EXpendi-
lures in the various departments, and
there is fair prospect that more
will be undertaken before the session
closes.
4 Joint Select Committee is en-
ployed in Investigating the charges
against the officials of the District Gov
ernment. The House Committee on
Expenditures in the Department of
Justice is investigating alleged frauds
committed by West Arkansas Judicial
District officials, and it will proba-
bly, push its inquiries into the dis
tricts of South and North Carolina,
Iowa, SoA hcrn Illinois. and Dakota.
\ military court is investigating the
charges against Gen. Howard. The
House Indian Affairs Committee has
just begun an investigation into the al
legged frauds in Indian contracts. 1t
does not seem to have advanced much, j.,
but as it sits with closed doors, the
public has little opportunity of know
ing what is developed.
The WAYS and Means Committee is
investigating the OutrageS committed
under the mOieticS system in the GUS
toms service and the Sanborn contracts
in the Internal Revenue service; and
the revelations that have been made
i'll these matters are probably not Il
sample of that which remains to be
told.
The Joint Printing Committee is in
eStigating the charges made against
the Congressional Printing Office, and
also inquiring rs to the advisabilitN of
abolishng that institution. 1t also
conducts its proceedings in complete
secrecy. The House PoStotficc Conn
mittee is looking into the payment of
moieties to Postoilice Special Agents
when arrests of Post masters have been
made, and fines assessed for minor Of
lenses. This comes up under Il bill in
troduced by Gen. Banning, of Ohio,
and will, it is alleged, result i'll some
developments that will a>tonSh the
people more than they will Creswell.
\ subcommittee of the House Judi
ciary Committee is here, and has Eecn
investigating The charges against
Judges Busted and Durell. and will,
it is thought, submit articles of inn
parchment against each Of these indi-
viduals at an early day.
The First National Bank investiga-
ton, and one that Is in contemplation
into the Frecdmen'S Savings Bank,
complete the list. The investigations
have, with but two exceptions, viz:
the District investigation and the How
ard Court of Inquiry, been ordered
with 4 degree Of unanimity that is in
dicativa of the fact that the present
COnrraSS is not uiSpOSed to cover uD
wrong-doinG in any quarter.
