INVESTIGATION CLOSED.
Report Will State There Was Collusion and
Fraud Berween Huston and Sanderson.

The public sessions of the Capi-
tol investigation committee were
brought to a close Friday afternoon
with the testimony of former Gov
ernor Stone, who was president OF
the Capitol building commission
and also chairman of the board of
public grounds and buildings dur
ing his tenure of Office.
The sessions of the Investigators
began on March II and continued
since without interruption, except
during the closing days of the re-
cent legislature. The commission
expects to complete its report to
Governor Stuart within the next
thirty days, after which Attorney
General Todd will institute civil
and criminal suits i'll the Dauphin
county court against those respon-
sible for the alleged frauds and
overcharges in the furnishings Of
the capitol.
The report of the commission
will state that there was collusion
and fraud between Joseph M. Hus-
ton, architect and John H. Sander
son, contractor for S., 900, 900 of
the furnishings; and that the con-
tracts for the furnishings were i'm
properly awarded, and not to the
lowest bidders; that the gods were
not purchased at the prevailing
market prices, as the law directs
that they shall be; that inferior fur
nishings were supplied, not in ac-
cordance with the plans and speci-
fcations and that there is evidence
of shortage, and that the members
of the building commission and the
board of grounds and buildings
were derelict in their duties in not
inspecting the evident fraud and
collusion that existed.
Much of the testimony taken by
the commission will be used in the
legal proceedings. Huston and
Sanderson evaded subpoenas to ap-
pear before the commission and tell
their stories. Congressman H. Burd
Cassel, president of the Pennsylva-
MIA Construction company, which
supplied the metallic furniture at
cost to the State of s., 900, 900, also
declined to appear before the COM
mission. James M. Shumaker, su.
perintendent of public grounds and
buildings, and executive officer was
too i'll to appear.

er than any other ship in the navy
except the torpedo boats and the
destroyers. AT the same time she
will have a main battery of four 5
inch rifles and a minor battery to
match. Her speed will not be quite
so great as the scout ships of some
of the other powers, but she will
be able to keep up her contract
speed for longer time and under
worse weather conditions than any
other ship ahoat. She is not the
first scout ship of the navy though
she is the first that has been built
in this country. The Department
bought the New Orleans from
Brazil just after she had been COM
pleted in Europe about the out
break of the Spanish-American
war. She could only do FL knots
under the best conditions and her
guns were not of the standard navy
calibre, necessitating special ammu-
nition for her. But she was a trim,
effective ship and was of so much
use as a scout and dispatch boat
that she has been improved on and
added to the navy as a regular type.

An interesting question has come
up before the pure food board of
the Department of Agriculture. 1t
is what constitutes "Scotc h
Whiskey ?" There is an immense
amount of so called Scotch whiskey
imported to the United States. By
far the most of it never saw Scot
land and some that is made there
would not be allowed to be sold in
England by the board of revenue.
Some of the importers have raised
the question with the Department
of Agriculture and a decision on
the subject is awaited with great
interest. Meantime the average
citizen will continue to drink
Scotch high balls without ques-
tioning their nativity.
