the Present Chaos.

The presidents message to the SEN

the Controller bay matter commanded
attention as we'll because OF the in
formation conveyed as because OF the
energy of his reply to the personal
features of the accusations made.
With the courage he has exhibited on

the facts before him. justified the
steps that have been challenged and

ton.
That investigation has been halted
until fall against the vigorous protest
of a Republican member OF the COM
mittee, who thought that the charges
made were such as demanded prompt
and thorough sitting. He was over
ruled. and long recess ordered. Pre-
sumably the committee will resume
Its work. Indeed. the presidents mes

ing for the most searching inquiry,
both as to it's source and the use that

charges. We are all advised OF the

Mr.. Fisher is a man to clear up
