dal, made public by The World. In
his letter to Secretary Garrison the
president suggested that he discuss
the question With Seer harry of State
Bryan. '" "
A report to the effect that the pres.
ident intended to send Paul Fuller, or
some man of his type, to Santo Do.
mfngo to investigate the. charges was
circulated from the White House this
morning. This report was, the sub:
1ect of great surprise to persons fami-
liar with International relations, be-
cause there is no precedent for such
a course .
President Wilson told callers that
Minister Sullivan has asked for an
investigation Of the charges. g..
The president has had under con-
sideration- for several days a letter
from Walker w. Wick, assistant sec;
rotary Of the Democratic National
Committee and former receiver - of
Dominican Customs, in which Mr..
Wick presented the case, against Min
lister Sullivan in the light of facts
which he knew and of additional evil
dence developed by The Worlds in
vestigation., re- ~
1t Is known within a limited circle
that the president reached a decision
Immediately after receiving yick's let
ter and before there was a public ex-
posture of the facts. Only the manner
OF oficial Investigation was left for
determination this week, after The
World had supplied general specifica-
tons of the Dominican charges.
1t is understood. that Secretary Bry-
an assured the president that Mr.
Vick's statements should not be taken
seriously 1t is also understood that
Mr.. Bryan informed the president
that he had Intercepted Minister Sui
Ivan on several of the accusations
and that Sullivan had satisfied him
they were not true.
