WHALEY SAW AFFIDAVITS;
MAYOR GRACE DISPLEASED
Urges Chairman Post to Order an
InvestigatiOn-Case to
Come Up Later.

Washington, December 5.-Elections
Committee No 1 did not take up the
Grace-Whaley case at its meeting to-
day, the attention OF the committee be-
ing devoted entirely to a Michigan
contest, and the South Carolina affair
not even being mentioned during the
session.
Until the papers, which have been
sent to the public printer, have been
returned to the committee in printed
shape, whicn will take a day or two,
there will be nothing done. Even af-
ter the printed record is in hand, for
the convenience Of the committeeman,
they will be allowed a reasonable time
to study the data thus exhibited, and
it is unlikely that the committee will
take any definite action in less than
a week.
Mayor Grace has written letter to
Chairman Post complaining Of the fact
that Representative Whaley was al
lowed to see the affidavits filed with
tae committee previous to its adjourn
ment two months ago. The Mayor
claims that this was unfair and urges
at length that the proper procedure
would be to order an investigation and
follow the rules of law, summoning
witnesses and taking their testimony
at once, without giving the other side
an opportunity to prepare to meet the
evidence in advance. Mr.. Grace says
that what he expected has happened,
and that Whaley has used the interim
of two months to undermine the Grace
aff1davits.
There is no reason to believe that
the committee will follow the mayors S
suggestion as to the method of tax
ing testimony at this stage. The i'm
preston now is that the case against
Whaley is crumbling as result OF the
counter afadavits submitted by the
congressman a few days ago.
Mayor Grace communicated with
Chairman Post, of the elections COM
mittee, today over the long distance
telephone, insisting upon fair treat
ment by the committee. Mr.. Post de-
clares that the committee has no in
tention of being anything but fair to
all concerned, and sees no ground tor
apprehension to the contrary.

Canal from ocean to ocean. 1t is a
tragedy that Lieut.. Col. David Du B.
Gaillard, the arm engineer who con-

Culebra channel, cannot be present to

and the final proving Of the integrity
of the tropics.
Lieut.. Col. Gaillard saw tae virtual

on the hour which saw his triumph
he was stricken with illness and to-
day, when the ceremonies attending the
letting in of the water are in progress,
he is lying i'll in a Northern hospital.
When this army engineer began work
at CuIebra, six years ago, he knew that
his great work must be the overcom-

written of his labor: "Gaillard made

ENGINEER KILLED
Shifting Engine Backs into SeabOard
Freight Train Several Badly
Injured.

Columbia, December 80. L. Brin-
kley, engineer, of Raleigh n. c., was
instantly killed and the negro fireman,
named Dixon, seriously injured when
the switch engine on which they were
backed into north-bound Seaboard
freight train early this morning at the
foot Of the Seaboard Congaree trestle,
in the city limits of Columbia Con-
ductor c.. B. Orrell, Engineer D. P.
Cornwell, FIagman Mann and the
negro fireman of the freight were in
jured. Both engines were demolished
and one fiat car of lumber smashed.
TIE wounded were all rushed to
local hospital for treatment and the
track cleared with little delay to
traffic.
The accident occurred at o'clock
this morning. The freight train was
coming into the station and had just
cleared the long trestle, which spans
the Congaree River, when it ran into a
switch engine, which was backing out
of siding on to the main line. The
suddenness of the contact gave the
engineer of the switch engine no
chance to save himself by jumping and
he was crushed to death The negro
fireman escaped with his life, but was
badly wounded.
No cause, has been given for the
wreck, but an investigation is being
conducted by the railroad officials. The
track was cleared Of the wreck by $3.50
o'clock tais morning, and the passen-
ger trains got through with only H.
tie delay
The railroad commission investigated
the wreck, visiting the scene in body,
and will later conduct an investigation
into the cause.
1t is said that the wreck was caused
by misrerading Of orders.

The Indictment Of Mclean makes
the third growing out Of the districL
attorneys ln1esugatlon OF Joan A
Hennessy's charges oil graft in tle
State highway department. The first
count against Mclean was chiefly
based on the testimony of Mathew Van
Alstyne of Albany, an officer OF the
Shaughnessy Construction company,
who testified that he mad sent cam
paign contribution of $1,000 in tAe
1orm OF bank draft to Mclean in
October, 1912, and received therefor

timony of Harold " Owens, secretary
and treasurer of the Dale Engineering
