All Members Of the : s,anittee
Unanimous in r. 1st

Washington, Jan. 22.-Dr. Harvey
w. Wiley was held not guilty of con-
spiracy to eyade the law in a report
filed today by the committee which
conducted an investigation last Aa-
gust into charges upon which Taft was
asked to dismiss the nationals chief
chemist from the government service.
Not only does the committee absolve
Wiley from criticism for the employ
ment of DR.. II. H. Rusby of New
York as a government expert at the
technical rate of $40 a day, but at
tacks in measured terms the whole
administration Of the national pure
food law and demands congress to take
action to change the method in the
department of agriculture by which
the law is applied.
The so-called Wiley investigation
arose from charges made in the agri-
cultural department that Wiley, DIR.
W. d. Bigelow and DR.. L. E. Kebbler,
all of the bureau of chemistry, se-
cretly arranged with Rusby so that
the latter need work only eighty days
in the year for an annual salary of
$1,000. This was declared to be delib-
crate evasion of the established limit
of So a day.
The report of the committee on
expenditures in the agricultural de-
partment, signed by all members, dem
ocrats and republicans alike, declares
Wiley and his associates communicate
ed the facts of Rusby's employment
fully to Secretary Wilson, 1t holds,
however. that the contract for the em-
ployment Of Rusby was technically H.
legal and recommends that congress
make, specific provision for the en-
ployment of experts by the agricul-
tural department.
The committee recommends the
chief of the bureau be given the full
power the law supposes him to have
over all employees of the bureau, that
the board of drug inspection be en-
tirely from within the bureau. and
that the power of solicitor, pass upon
the ndings Of the bureau be With

which much Investigation centered last
summer is held to be legally consti-
tituted but its activity as. a supervis-

try is declared to be outside the law.

occupant of the private car, the secre-
tary of Mr.. Melcher, escaped.
