To be investigated.

Secretary Alger and Adjutant-
General Corbln have joined in a re-
quest to the president for a thorough
investigation Of the war department
No decision has been reached yet
by the president as TO what course he
will pursue. He has the request OF
Secretary Alger under consideration.
1t seems now not unlikely that the
investigation will be ordered, but it
is the wish OF the president further to
consider to consider the matter before
announcing a definite policy.
The question probably will receive
consideration at the cabinet meeting
today. While all the members OF the
cabinet are not in the city, Secreta,
ries Alger and Long and Attorney
General Griggs being among those
who will not he present at the meet
ing, it is said to be the wish OF the
president to take up the whole sub
iect with those OF bis advisers who
mag be there.
