House Committee Hears How ConsuI's
Letters Were Oneuad

A@Ctt~AS fNCk[ OPeuCQs
Charles II. Macrum, former United
States consul at Pretoria, was before the
foreign affairs committee of the House
Wednesday and told his story in regard
to the alleged interference with his let
tiers by the British censor. Afterward,
in executive session, the committee, az
ter considering the case, practically de-
termined to let the matter drop without
further action.
Macrum, in giving his testimony. began
at the point where he first asked for
leave TO come home, saying that he de-
sired to come on private business, ard
also to place before ne Government cer-
tain facts, which liz thought ought to be
known here. Asked when he first be-
came satisfied that his mail was being
tempered with he said that he did not re-
ceiye any mail between Oct, y, when
war was declared, and the second week
in November. Ordinarily he had box

British censor, neither of them of any
Importance In reply 10 a question by
Representative w. A. Smith, he admit
ted that he had returned to the United
States largely on account Of private busi-
ness. He had made no report to the
State Department in regard to the let
tiers, nor had he attempted to make such
a report TO the department He declined
to say why he had not made a report
but said he had gone to Assistant Secre-
tary Hill and said; II understand / have
been dismissed" Mr. Hill said his I'M
derstanding was correct, and Mr.. Ma
crum said he therefore had no report to
make.
Pressed further by Mr.. Smith as TO his
reasons for believing that the British
authorities had possession Of the State
Department cipher, Mr.. Macrum said he
could not affirm from actual knowledge,
but he explained that on Nov. he had
applied in cipher to the State Depart
ment asking for leave. That cable had
gone through Durham. The next day,
Nov. Z, he had been informed paper in
Durham published the fact that he had
applied for leave Mr.. Macrum said he
had used the State Department cipher Of

ehasable anywhere. When asked if
other consuls had complained, Mr.. Ma
crum said the German and Belgian con
suls had both told him that no cipher
kilograms were allowed to go through,
A letter was sent TO the committee by
the Secretary of State, with a commu-
nication from Consul General Stowe, in
which the consul general said that when
he heard of the opening Of the letters
to Mr.. Macrum he had informed the
British authorities at Port Durham. The
explanation of those officers was salts
