eeport of the Keep committee on its
recent investigation of affairs in the
government printing office at WASH
ington. The inquiry was made by
special direction Of the president on
account of e. protest which he had re-

against the award Of q contract by
Public Printer Frank w. Palmer to
the Lanstoll Monotype Company for
seventy-two machines OF its make.
by order Of the president, the con-
tract with tho Lanston people was
held up until an investigation could
be made with the view OF ascertain
lng whether the charges. OF favoritism
ana corruption IN the letting of the
! contract were substantially founded.
As heretofore chronicled In these
dispatches, the president decided. after
an examination OF the Keep report,
that the contract for the Lanston ma

inittee reported that II the contract
could be set aside, such a course
would be desirable" although the

INSURANCE FRAUDS.
Atlanta Clergyman May Go to New
 York to Testify.

Atlanta. December Especial 1.-The Rev. Moore Sanborn. for the last six months pastor of the Unitarian church of this city, may be summoned to New York to testify before the insurance in- vestigating committee, which has been unearthing numerous scandals.
 Until May last, when he became pas tor of the church here, Rev. MT San born was first vice president of the Se- curity Mutual and Security Trust Insur- ance companies of New York. These companies have not been brought into the investigation, but for sixteen years prior to going with them Rev. Mir San born was agent for the New York Life i Insurance company In Augusta, Ga, which was then under the state agency of the late R. H. Plant of Macon
 Today Rev. MT Sanborn received a number of interrogatories from Insur- ance Commissioner Hughes, which he has been asked to fill out under oath and return. ell has also been asked to hold himself in readiness to go to New York and testify before the Investigating com mittee in case he should be needed
 When seen at his home this morning Rev MT. Sanborn declined to make any statement regarding tie interrogatories which he has been asked to give. He said he had no doubt that there had been good many scandalous transactions with several of the larger insurance com panies, but that he knew nothing of these of his own knowledge.
