In the municipal court this morning

The check was cashed by Harry Le-

believed that only scouting parties of

The movement of japanese forces on

STILL IN
DISPUTE
Bell investigating Commit
tee Has Not Reported.
REPORTS OUT DENIED
1t Is Now Stated that Those Look,
ing over the Vouchers Do
Not Agree.

Montpelier, Sept 27.-After hard
all night session, the Bell investigat-
ing committee took recess from to
$50 this morning for breakfast. At 3
this afternoon the contents OF the II
vouchers in controversy had been
separated and classified, and then be-
gan the difficult task of setting on
joint report.
The committee was unable to reach
any agreement up to supper time, and
went at it again after supper.
After three hours evening session
the committee adjourned at II O'Clock
until 8 tomorrow evening without
agreeing on any report. The COM
mittee has found the facts without
dispute. The hitch is over certain
supplementary findings that one side
believes should appear in the report,
and the other does not.
G. d. Davenport stated tonight that
he committee would not give out any
thing until it had decided TO agree
or disagree, and what had appeared
in the newspapers purporting to come
from the commission had no authority
and was not in accordance with the
real facts.
The committee has delegated a
member to draw up a report, which
will come before the full committee az
s O'Clock Wednesday evening.
The inve estigation began yesterday
afternoon with the examination of
the II vouchers so much referred to
in the campaign literature circulated
by Charles Fl. Davenport OF Brattle-
boro on behalf of the democratic state
campaign committee during the recent
campaign. At the close Of the after
noon session they had gone over all
these vouchers and found them
straight as string. The charge that
Mr. Bell had put in a bill for more
days OF service in the fiscal years of
190l-l902 than there were calendar
days in those years was shown to be
unfounded, and the fact that the print
ed report of the auditor shows such a
discrepancy was proven to be due to
errors in the auditors report. The |
Inconsistencies alleged by the Demo-
Gratis we're easily reconcilable with the |
facts as shown by the vouchers and |
thus far the Investigation was com
plete vindication of Mr. Bell.
1t was then apparent that the Demo-
Gratis we're anxious to shift the ground
of their inquiries, and they forthwith
to examine into the details
of Mr. Bells charges for Expenses"
hotel bills, mileage, living etc. They
proposed to examine into several of
these charges, but we're instantly met !
by the proposition from Mr. Bell's
Joseph A. DeBoer, of
this city, that, If they examined any,
they would examine all. Accordingly |
a detailed examination and classifi-
cation of the various items of expense
charged in the vouchers was begun. 1t
lasted all night and has lasted thus
far through the day.
A special to the Burlington Free
Press says the investigation complete.
Iy exonerstes Mr. Bell and that no man
could ask a more complete vindication
Of any charge OF wrong doing than
G. ]. Bellhas receiv-
I'd at the hands OF the committee that
since Monday noon has been examin-
ing his accounts while serving as cat
lie commissioner and secretaryof the
board of agriculture.
