stand. He will be further questioned
at that time.
CLAWS was Cross-examined today
by several members of the commit
tee, the Democrats taking by far the
more prominent part in the question
ing, and framing their interrogations
in way that elected answers tend
ing to accentuate certain parts of the
testimony already given by the wit
ness.
At the close Of the hearing Senator
Nelson called attention 10 the fact that
the committee was proceeding 'feebly'
and blindly, as there was no one present
TO cross-examine as the representative OF
the other side Personally, he said. he
had no desire 10 question the witness fur
Their. II was thought best, however, that
CLAWS remain in the city until certain
documents called for from the interior
department have arrived and have been
examined.
