INVESTIGATION OF
THE LATE RIOTS
in IDAHO STARTS.

washington, Feb. 19.-The inyestiga-
ZION OF charges as to the conduct of the
United States military forces under Gen.
eral Merriam during the Idaho troubles
last summer began to-day before the
mouse committee on military affairs.
governor Steunenbarg of Idaho, State Au.
dltor Merriam, ex-Master Workman Sow.
ere:gn of the Knights Of Labor, E, J.,
flan1gan OF the Idaho legislature and
Magistrate A. T. Mullan of Idaho and a
considerable delegation of miners from
the Occur d'Alene district were present.
n entire time was consumed in dis
cusslng the manner of procedure. Sew
eral members wanted Lentz, who started
the inquiry, to act as complainant and
prosecutor but he declined to accept the
position and urged there should be a free
and full investigation. He said there
was no partisanship in the investigation
and he merely wished to get at the
charges which labor organizations re-
garded as serious and which were widely
made in the press.
Representative Marsh of Illinois also
urged that as Lentz has formulated the
charges he should proceed in his own
way. There should be the fullest inves-
tigation. 80 that it could not be said
anything was smothered."
Chairman Hull did not think the COM
mittee could abdicate it's functions to
Lentz. Marsh resented his remark as
a Misrepresentation of his position and
Hull disavoweo any such purpose. A
resolution by Hay, Virginia, that the
complaining witnesses b. first examined
was dabted at length. The committee
adjourned until tomorrow morning when
its exact line of procedure will be
adopted and the examination of Witnesses
begun.
