is to be probed to the bottom and that
evidence is now in their hands which
duplicates some of the best people af
that section in the affair. which is a
scandal of amazing proportions.
When the full history of the affair
comes to light the sensational aspects

dwarfed in comparison with 1t. They
stated that the situation. which at one
time threatened to become dangerous,
had now toned down until there was
no longer any danger OF an open out

they have collected will be placed
