A RIGID INQUIRY
To Be Made Into Failure
Of Washington Police
10 Maintain Order During SUI

Mass Of Evidence Showing Officers
WiIfully Neglected Duties.

Washington, March 5.--Aroused over
the failure of the Washington police
department to maintain order during
the progress of the Suffrage pageant
of March the Senate, today, began
an investigation to place the respon-
sibilfty for the lack of protection for
the women marchers. The inyestiga-
ton is a result of joint resolution
of Congress directing the police de-
partment to furnish protection to the
Suffragists.
Acting under a resolution adopted
just before the Senate adjourned,
Monday, Senator Gallinger, the retir-
ing chairman of the District of
Columbia committee, named Senators
Jones, Dillingham; and Pomerene as
an investigating committee. At a
meeting, today. the committee deter
mined to begin hearings, at 1.30
o'clock, tomorrow Major Richard
Sylvester, superintendent of police
probably will be one of the first wit
nesses called. It ia the plan of the
committee to examine a number Of
persons to determine accurately the
attitude of the police toward the SUI
fragist marchers and the amount of
protection given.
Supt. of Police Sylvester said, today,
