THE srLcorr DErALcAr1or.

He T0ek With Win to Canada eTl .SO0 The Responsibility Of that Loss Can. net be Loeased-His Bondsmen Can- nos be Held-Where VIII she Salaries
 Come Front
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-The special com mittse charged with investigating the ac- counts of the office of the sergesnt-at-arms met in the room oI the house committee on public lands st 10:30 this morning. After formally organizing the committee went inc to secret session in order to map out the plan of procedure. At the end of half an hour word was sent to MT. Leedom that tho committee desired his presence. MT. Lee dom, accompanied by ex-Consrsssnaan Phil. Thompson, whom he has retained as counsel. responded to the summons, but MT. Thomp- son was denied admission.
 MT. Lsedom made another searching ex- animation of the books of his office and places the amount of the dedication at $71,- 800.
 MT. Leedom's examination was confined to an investigation as to the manner in which business has been transacted in his office in its various examinations with the treasury, the national banks and the representatives. It lasted nearly an hour, and he was followed on the stand by J. w. Whslpley, assistant United States treasurer. He testified as to the mode in which the drafts of the sergeant at-arms of the House are presented and paid at the department. After hearing MT. Whslp1ey's statement the committee made an investigation into the legal aspect of the case with result most unsatisfactory to the members, whose salaries are in arrears. Although the matter is still an open question, 1t appears as result of the inquiry thus far that the responsibility for the loss cannot be located. As the bond of the ser- geant-at-arms was given to cover the per- fornance of his official duties, it cannot be seen how his bondsmen can be held for any loss incurred by him, acting as a disbursing officer without any authority of law, or how his private property could be touched. Sil- cott's bond might possibly bs held good, but even this is doubtful. Much depends upon it's phraseology and then, as it was given to assure MT. Leedom against loss it must be personal loss before the bondsmen could be called upon. Altogether the situation is distressing to those members who at first had no doubt that they would promptly recover their missing salaries. Having exhausted the knowledge of the treasury officers the committee went down into the office of the sergeant-at-arms, and turning out everybody not connected with the office, began an ex- animation of formidable array of books and accounts. In this work they were aided by treasury experts, and all day tomorrow will probably be occupied in this examination.
