HAS NO EVIDENCE.
Beet Combine Is All hearssy as Far as Knox
Is Concerned.

Washington, April IS. - The house
committee on judiciary has reported to
the house a resolution calling on the
attorney general for information as to
what steps had been taken to investi-
gate the beef trust. The special COM
mittee recommended that it lie ON the
table.
The resolution was accompanied by a
letter from Attorney General Knox, in
which he some time ago directed that a
thorough investigation be made by one
of the United States district attorneys
to ascertain whether such combination
actually exists.
Knox added that he had no evidence
of the existence of such a combination
that could be classed as legal and that
he had not been requested to take any
official action in the matter. His action
in ordering the investigation, he said,
had been prompted by the oft.repeated
allegation, of circumstantial nature,
that the law was being fiagrantly vio-
lated.

wounding four other sailors. OF the in
jured two Of the men are in a critical
condition.
The gun which burst was barbette
gun which had been used for target prac-
tice many times before. The officers are
unable to account for the accident as the
piece had been discharged with the regu.
latlon practice load several times before
it went to pieces and had been subjected
to numerous tests.
So terrific was the explosion that one
piece of heavy metal was thrown clear
through the side of the barbette. The
body of one of the lieutenants was
thrown out and through the air for SO
yards, while the others in the barbette
were mangled almost beyond recognition.
