Senator Kenyon prepared the case OF
the government against the beef trust
that is now pending in the Federal courts

cause he believes q proper investigation

1t is considered more than probable
that the House will to-day pass by a
practically unanimous vote Representa-
tive Oldfields resolution calling for q
sweeping investigation OF District affairs
as a result OF the favorable action on the
resolution by the Rules Committee of
the House yesterday. The investigation
is expected to pay particular attention
to two features OF District administration,
the making OF assessments and collect
ing OF taxes. and the conduct OF the pub
lie utility. corporations doing business in
the District
The resolution, which will be presented
by Representative Henry, chairman OF the
Rules Committee. with favorable report
by his committee, probably will receive
immediate action. It reads:
"Resolved, That the House Commit
tee on the District of Columbia, or
any subcommittee thereof, appointed
by the chairman Of such committee,
be authorized to send for and compel
the production of such books and pa
pers and the presence Of such persons,
as they may deem necessary for the
purpose Of inquiring into the opera
tions and methods Of the departments
of assessment and collection of taxes
Of the District OF Columbia, and such
other departments thereof as may be
determined by them; as well as the
