Gen. Haxen's Accounts

WHAT CoNThoLLhh MAfNAhD SAYS ABOUT
THEM.
Second Controller Maynard said to-day that
the publications representing that the alleged
irregularities in the accounts OF Gen. Hazen
had been satisfactorily explained, or that an
arrangement had been made by which
the matter would be held up, were
entirely erroneous. He said that further ex-
animation of the accounts only confirmed him
the stronger in the stand taken by him in his
recent decision. The accounts will be retained
in the controllers office until the completion of
the investigation OF the House committee.
Then they will be sent TO the auditor to be ad-
justed upon the basis of the second controllers
decision

COLUMBUS, OHIO, Feb. 1s.
The Payne investigating committee this
morning had before them Judge McGilvay, of
Scioto county, and Hon. Clark Irwin, q warm
friend of Senator Pendleton. Irwin was
former chairman Of the Democratic State
executive committee, but lost caste among the
latter-day democrats because Of his alleged
lack of interest in the Book walter campaign. 1t
has already been developed that the first move
directed against the retiring OF Mr. Pendleton
from political life was inaugurated directly af-
Ter the defeat of BOokw but only assumed
tangible shape in the following winter.
