THE PATENT OFFICE CHARGES.

Commissioner Seymour VIII Begin the In
vestigatioD June FL.
June 21 is the time set for beginning the in
vestigation of the charges preferred by Church
Church Of this city against W. E. Simonds.
ex-commissioner of patents. and Foster 4
Freeman. patent attorneys Of this city. alleging
improper copying of certain secret files of the
patent Office.
Some days ago Secretary Hoke Smith, at the
request Of the commissioner Of patents, asked
the attorney for an opinion as to whether the
commissioner has tbs power to appoint a
referee who is not an officer Of the bureau to
take testimony and report his conclusions
thereon in this case.
In reply the solicitor general, with the ap-
proval Of Attorney General Olney, has advised
the Secretary of the Interior that the question
submitted is one which should have been re-
ferred to the assistant attorney general for
the Department Of the Interior. He calls at
tention, however. to the statute which forbids
the acceptance Of voluntary service by the gov
ernment or the employment of officers whose
compensation is not specifically provided for,
and also that the contingent fund OF the de-
partment cannot be used for such a purpose.
Today Commissioner Seymour decided to
make the investigation himself, and after con-
ference with the Messrs. Church. ex-Repre-
sentative Payson. the counsel for Mr.. Simonds,
and Mr.. Jere Wilson, the counsel for Foster
K Freeman. it was decided to begin taking
testimony in the case at 10 O'Clock June 81,
in the Office of the commissioner Of patents. The
case will be continued until the evidence is all
in, and then the arguments Of counsel will be
heard.

What Clerks Say Of Col. Aims.
VOrth's Relation to Than.
SECRETARY LAMONT'S LETTER.
No Witness Shall Jeopardize His
Position by His Testimony.

Today the work Of fixing the responsibility
for the catastrophe and great loss of life in the
old Ford's Theater building on 10th street last
Friday was begun. Tho coroner and six men,
representing the people of the United
States, entered upon this stern duty at Willard's
Hall. An army court Of inquiry took up
similar investigation later in the day. The in
terest of the people, however, seemed to be
centered in the coroner's inquest, and there
was a somewhat remarkable scene at Wizards
Hall. Now that the ruins have been cleared
away and thoroughly explored, and that the
full extent of the disaster is known, the
inquiry most heard is as to what is
going to be done about it. 1t
was not exactly in the line Of inquiry that
was expected, but a rather singular state Of
affairs was brought out by one witness, and
that is that the clerks who were
huddled together in the old theater
building lived their official lives in a state Of
fear of the head Of the division, Col. Ainsworth
This was the statement of only one witness, but
that his somewhat bold utterances met with a
hearty response from the clerks was shown by
the applause which broke out from the crowd
of clerks that thronged the hall. The wit
ness represented that the fear Of Col. Ainsworth
was SO great that it would even prevent clerks
from reporting their suspicious concerning the
safety of the building. 1t was shown also

the appropriation for the expenses Of the
naval review. OF the s3Oo.OOO appropriated
about sI50.Ooo was expended in bringing the
vessels from different stations and for coal con-
sumed during the review. About ESQ. 900 was
consumed for pay and subsistence Of

fitting out the vessels at New York and Norfolk
after their arrival from foreign stations. This
left 100000 for entertainment purposes and
other incidental expenses. Less than S25, 900
used for hospital purposes. This leaves
about $50 900 to be turned back to the treas
