COMMISSIONERS BLACK.

The Investigation by the Senate Committee
How Blacks Charges Originated.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, April 2L-As anticipated, the
investigation by the Senate committee into the
charges made by Commissioner of Pensions
Black has proven a dead fat failure, so far as
developing any material fact to sustain the as
sertions Of the Commissioner is concerned. The
weekly meetings of the committee have been at
tended by not over half-a-dozen spectators and
reporters for some time and am informed the
investigation would close-that, in fact, it would
have ended fortnight since-had not the friends
of General Black insisted on hearing all the
specifications presented. So far. not single in
stance Of improper conduct has been proven
against Commissioner Blacks predecessor.
Every case he has presented has been indorsed
by him on crossexamination; that is, he has ac-
knowledged that. lin the light now presented"
there appears to be no wrongd@ing Several
times Commissioner BlaclD has frankly acknow-
lodged that he was mistaken in his first conclu-
sions.'
It is stated upon authority that appears good
that Commissioner Black made the charges he
incorporated in his annual report, and which are
being investigated, upon the verbal statements
of some sycophant clerks in the Pension Office
who sought to curry favor with the new admin
istration and that the Commissioner is very
much out of humor aboutit
Yesterdays Meeting of the Committee.
To the Western Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, April 2L-Commissioner Black
was again before the Senate committee on ex-
penditures Of public money to-day. case in
which the name of a private soldier had been
restored to the pension rolls by General Dudley
was laid before the committee. The case, Gen.
Black said, in reply to inquiries. was first brought
to his attention after Senator Harrison's resolu-
ton of investigation was introduced in the Sen
ate, and was unknown to him when he made his
report charging that the action of the Office was
influenced by political motives.
Senator Harrison repeatedly questioned the
Commissioner as to his opinion of the suficency
of the proof in the records to substantiate the
allegation that Commissioner Dudley had acted
from improper motives in this case, and the
Commissioner as often urged in reply that he
had outside evidence to sustain his allegation
The nature of the evidence was not disclosed.

New Charges Against George w. Julian.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, April 21.-A new grst of
charges has been filed with the Senate committee
on public lands against the confirmation of Geo.
w. Julian, of Indiana, to be surveyor general of
New Mexico, and Mr.. Julian has written re-
quests to personal friends in Congress to look
after the case. Some charges weres filed soon
after Mr. Julian's nomination, several months
ago. but they were not of serious character,
and few days ago the committee made favor
able report upon the nomination. 1t is believed
that the charges just received will only delay
confirmation.
