TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Feb. 22.--The
congressional subcommittee sent by
the Panama investigating committee
to take the evidence of ex-Secretary X.
w. Thompson arrived here yesterday
morning. It's members arc Storcr of
Ohio and Patterson of Tennessee.
They were driven Immediately with
their stenographer To the residence OF
eX-Secretary Thompson, who is in inn
proved health, being better than for a
week or more.
The examination of Col. Thompson
was begun immediately upon the ar
rival of the subcommittee. The cx-
Secretary first detailed the circum.
stances of his resignation, saying it
was publicly done, and further he met
no opposition from President Hayes
when he approached him regarding the
matter. The first offer of the Ameri-
can chairmanship was made to him
by Jesse w. Scligman in 1880,
and was not accepted until
after full conference with friends
and the President and the determina-
ton on his part that there was nothing
in it ipimical to the interests of the
United States. He denied that the
Hayes administration was opposed to
the canal. He had the idea when he
accepted the Craftsmanship of Ameri
canizing the affair and tried to get an
American construction company to
bnild it, The entire administration
so far as he knew, of the affairs of the
American Committee was on the strict
est business principles.

been his intense jealousy of the sane.
