Chairman Arthur Kennedy, of the ALLIE
gheny Corporation Committee, does not be-
lieve there is any attempt to delay the in
vestigatioD. Yesterday he said:
81 have seen nothing yet to convince me
that the policy of the Republicans is to
retard the investigation until after the
election. 1t is contrary to the policy of
the party. 1t has been the Republicans so
far who have made the discoveries, and I
believe that if there is any crookedness, the
guilty persons will be punished. What if
money has been stolen by Republicans
There are rascals in every party. l do not
believe the investigation will have any
effect on the fall campaign, and there would
not be any good reason for stopping the
trial
J, J. Miller is firm in the belief that the
Republicans will certainly try to hold the
investigation over until after the election.
Said he: The Republicans will be able to
do it, but whether they do or not, it will be
a great card for the Democrats If the
officials could prove innocence the Republi-
CduS NOulu push IudblSTS anu
close up the whole affair inside Of week,
because that would be the best piece of

they will delay, though there is no cali for
it, and delay will injure the Republican

guilt.
