FULLYORGANIZED
BALLoTING TO-DAY.
Some Groundless Charges.

By Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, June 27.-The special
committee appointed at the request of Geo.
McAdams, Clerk of the House, to investi-
gate the charge against him, published in
the Inter Ocean, in May last, to-day made
unanimous report. They say the evidence
is explicit and conclusive; that in no in
stance has any pecuniary or other considera-
tion been paid or promised by or on behalf
of any party receiving an appointment from
Mr.. Adams, either directly or indirectly,
to any other person for his account
It appears that some disappointed
applicant from pique or resent
ment started a rumor that the present
Chief Engineer at the time of his appoint
ment held note against Mr.. Adams for
$500. This was retailed by an eccentric rel
alive of another disappointed applicant, and
reaching the ear of the correspondent it
suddediy grew into the proportions of SEN
satioual item. Inconsiderately and inexcu-
sably giving publicity to charge of crimi-
nal conduct against meritorious office of
the House.
The utter groundlessness and falsity OF
the charge are confessed by the correspon-
pent. His informers and all other parties
concerning in giving it circulation and are
also confirmed by the oath of Mr.. Adams
and the engineer. The committe say the
engineer was not political friend Of the
clerk, nor an acquaintance of him previous
to the commencement of the present session
and complimented Mr.. Adams for the care
and soliditude shown by him in the selec-
tion of that officer. The committee were
discharged from the further consideration
of the subject
