found conditions no less difficult than he
had anticipated. That he overcome these
difficulties is strongly testified to by the
House Committee on Judiciary, which
by a unanimous vote declared for the
institution Of impeachment proceedings
against Judge Archibald almost entirely
upon the framework Of the case Brown
made out without the help Of a sub
poena.

Upon his arrival in Scranton. after
viewing the ground. Mr.. Brown selected
as the central figure In the case E. J.
Williams, from whom little had been
gathered in an interview with the Attor-
ney General in Boland's presence.
Williams, a crafty Welshman, who
between in all of Judge Archbald's trans
actions. knew more of the facts of the
judges connections than any other one
man, with the exception of the judge
himself. Brown worked on him for a
week before he was able to get him to
talk. When he finally had won Williams
around, the man submitted to a lengthy
examination before a stenographer and
under oath, in which he told Brown
everything he knew. and brought to light
many lines of investigation which Bo-
lands testimony had failed TO disclose.
In Williams case. as in the cases Of
many other witnesses whom Brown in
duced to submit to an examination in
the presence Of a stenographer, the per
sonality of the investigator was the
strongest weapon at his command He
impressed them all with his desire to
clear Judge Archibald of the charges II
he could do so conscientiously, and his
determination to get at the facts and re-
port the true state of affairs whoever
should be hurt in the findings.
Returned to Washington, fully con-
vinced Of the strength Of his case, Brown
was not content simply to make his re-
port and leave others to draw their own
conclusions. Realizing that the Attorney
General might, with the same facts at
his disposal, arrive at a different con-
clusion, Brown nevertheless decided to
make the strong recommendation he be-
lieved justified by the evidence he had
collected. Here are his conclusions, con-
tained in the printed report Of his find
ings:

vestigation was conducted have made it

Promise TO withdraw her troops as soon

Intervention as the means TO obtain

they will address the British govern
