PROBE Of INSULTS
. TO WOMEN BEGIN
Call Major Sylvester to Explain
Treatment Of SuffTagists.
CONGRESSMAN TO TESTIFY
Many Prominent Persons Will Tell
Committee of indierence Of Wash.
ington Police.

bHAS FSuSSs
Washington, March 6-Aroused over
the failure of the Washington police
department to maintain order during
the progress of the suffrage pageant
of March 8, the sena,e today began
an investigation to place the respon-
sibility for the lack OF projection 1or
the women marchers.
The investigation is the result OF
joint resolution of congress directing
the police department to furnish pro-
lection to the suffragists.
Acting under resolution adopted
Just before the senate adjourned on
Monday, Senator Gallinger, the retir-
ing chairman of the District of Column
bia committee, named Senators Jones,
Dillingham; and Pomerene as an lnves-
tigating committee.
} At the meeting this afternoon Major
Richard Sylvester, superintendent OF
police, was the first witness called. IL
is the plan of the committee 10 exam
inc a number of persons to determine
accurately the attitude of the police
toward the suffragette marchers and
the character of the protection given
them.
Major Sylvester said that the po-
lice cannot be blamed for the failure
to preserve order. He declared that
the police force was inadequate to
meet the situation that confronted it.
His requests for more men, he said,
have been UNDECIDED by congress for
the last five or six years.
The fact that~so many members OF
congress are from suffrage states Is
counted upon by the women to q
them in Furnishing those respons BILE
for the indignities they say they were
compelled to suffer a: the hands OF
intoxicated and ruffianly men. They
are making every effort to obtain as
much evidence as possible to present
to the committee.
At the suffrage headquarters and to
Representative Hobson, OF Alabama,
many women as we'll as men volun
teered to make affidavits or left their
names and addresses so they might
be called as witnesses.
General Arson Mills, u. S. "A, re
tired, and Rear Admiral Wainwright
and Mrs. Wainwright and Miss Sophy
Stanton, granddaughter Of Lincoln's
secretary of war. are among those
who are said to have submitted evil
dence of Indifference on the part OF
the police.
Miss Alice Paul, chairman Of the
congressional committee of the ma
tional suffrage organization, has taken
personal charge of the work of push
ing the Investigation. She declares sse
already has obtained conclusive evi
dence regarding more than fifty po-
licemen who refused to keep back the
crowds along Pennsylvania avenue.

| Men who contest congressional seats
are generally allowed $4,000 as attor-
''ney's fees. But the practice has re-
lceived a Jolt. Members of congress are
going to scrutinize these accounts in
the future and cut Off those "profes-

simply to get the fees. The scheme
was exposed in the closing days of the

 Dead Man Not identified.
 Captain Blair was dozing in the pilot house and was awakened by smoke just in time to get out of the way of the flames that followed. George Barton, a night watchman, was asleep Tn ms Stateroom and be- fore he got out was burned so resious- ly that he was later removed to a hos pital. The dead man had not been identified tonight and it is thought that he may have been a visitor to the ship. The body. badly charred, was found on the main deck forward.
 Below decks the cooks and saloon men were at work. They scrambled on deck ahead of the flames but lost most of their personal belongings.

Meantime Stickel had lost Consciousness and it looked for time as though all four would go down. but other firemen reached them with a ladder.
