APPRAISERS MAKE APPEAL.
Two Men Dismissed by Taft Ask for
Reinstatement.

President Wilson has asked Secretary
of the Treasury McAdoo to make an in
vestigation into the cases of Thaddeus
S. Sharretts and Ray ii. Chamberlain,
members of the Board Of General Ap-
praisers, who We're summarily dismissed
by President Taft last Monday fer al
legged malfeaseance in Office.
Senators Stone of Missouri, Lodge of
Massachusetts,. and Smoot OF Utah yes
terday urged the President to reinstate
the two men. The Senators took the
position that the efficiency in their po-
sitions displayed by Sharretts and Cham
berlain in their long service on the board
should more than counterbalance the
charges against them.
The charges of malfeasance were in
vestigated by a special committee ap-
pointed by President Taft, which consist
ed OF Assistant Attorney General Deni-
son, Collector Loeb. and Felix Frankfur-
ter. law officer of the Bureau of Insular
Affairs.
President Wilson asked the Senators to
take their case to Secretary of the Treas
ury McAdoo yesterday morning. They
did not take 1t up with him yesterday,
