GROVER CLEVELAND HAD
 CLASH WITH THE SENATE

Washington, January 7.-(Special.)- 1.-The latest clash between the President and the Senate on the subject of the former s furnishing information in response to a resolution occurred In 1886 when Grover Cleveland and a republican Senate had it out. The issue was the demand for cer- tain papers in the department of justice in connection with nomination the Pres ident had sent to the Senate. The case possessed many features corresponding to the controversy over the Steel corpora tions absorption of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company.
 The Attorney General refused to stand and deliver, Senate committee investi- gated and reported, the %affair was the subject of prolonged discussion and was ended with condemnation of the action of the Attorney General as 'in violation of his official duty and subversive of the fundamental principles of the government and of good administration thereof"
 But in the report on the case which was submitted to the Senate by Senator Ed munds, chairman of the committee on the judiciary, there occurred this significant statement:
 The committee feels authorized to state, after somewhat careful research that within the foregoing limits, there is scarcely in the history of this govern ment until now any instance of the refusal by the head of a department or even of
The Birmingham age-herald., 1909-01-08

the President himself, to communicate of ficial facts and information as dis tinguished from private and unofficial papers, motions, views, reasons and opinions, to either house of Congress when internationally demanded. Indeed, the early journals of the Senate show great numbers of instances of directions to the heads of departments, as of course, to furnish papers and reports upon all sorts of affairs, both legislative and execu- tive"
 It will be noted that in this report ex- ception is made where reasons" arc de- manded, and this Is likely to be cited as precedent for the pending case.
 In the same Edmunds' report this para graph also occurred:
 Tt may be fully admitted that except in respect of the department of the treas ury, there is no statute which commands the head of any department to transmit to either house of Congress on it's de- mand any informa ton whatever concern ing the administration of his department But the committee believes 1t to be clear that from the very nature of the powers intrusted by the constitution to the two houses of Congresses it is necessary incl dent that either house must have at all times the right to know all that official ly takes place or exists in any of the departments of the government
 The Culberson resolution was not di- rected to the President, but to the At torney General, and 1t called upon him to announce whether he had begun action against the Steel corporation and if not, why not.
