WASHINGTON, April A,-The Commit
tee on Expenditures Of the Department
of Justice expect to commence the. ex-
animation of Ex-Attorney General Ack.
erman this afternoon in relation to
money paid by him to Mr.. Davenport.
The latter will not appear again until
Wednesday, the Committee having Qiven
him until That time at his own request
to hunt up more banks and papers which
he desires 10 offer in evidence. His ex.
animation promises to extend through
several days, as he insists upon making
detailed explanations of all matters iI
connection With which fraud or irregu-
larity is charged.
He asked how long the Committee
would want him in Washington, when a
member of the Committee replied that
he, Davenport, had insisted upon his
own way of answering, and they in
tended to permit the fullest latitude, and
their cross-examination would depend
entirely upon his statement in chief.
So far as the examination has gone
the Committee has not yet got into the
reason for the expenditure Of the $500
given to Davenport, but the latter has
testified almost entirely In relation to
the alleged election frauds iu New York
and the means adopted by him to pre-
vent them or to bring the guilty parties
tojustice.
