The governor said he no longer had any

The naval oficer in charge Of the

been two violations OF neutrality, one by

other by a vessel which used its wire

pear as Witness.

Secretary OF State Bryan yesterday af-
ternoon announced that James d. Phelan,
the Democratic senator-elect from Cali

Minister Sullivan Is accused Of improper
conduct by Walter W. Wick, President

OF the customs Of Santo Domingo who
resigned last summer chiefly because Of
his troubles with Sullivan.
The charges against Sullivan have been
given frequent airlngs for nearly q year.
and at one time were considered at the
State Department and at the White
House The result was that Wick re-
signed and Minister Sullivan was re-
turned to his post Upon the presenta-
ton of formal charges by Wick, President
Wilson directed Secretary Bryan TO make
an investigation.
Senator-eIect Phelan is now in
Washington and has already begun an
examination of papers in the posses
sion of the Bureau of Insular Affairs
of the War Department, through which
Wick. as receiver general, made his re-
ports on the Dominican collectorship.
Mr.. Bryan made public a letter Of
to Mr.. Phelan, in part, as
follows:
''You are authorized to employ such
legal counsel as you may need. and
such clerical and stenographic assist
ance as you may require. You will fix
a time and place for hearings-such
hearings to be public-and notify to
appear before you any and all persons
who, according to your information.
have personal knowledge of any facts
bearing upon Minister Sullivan's ap-
pointment, fitness for the work in
trusted to him, or conduct in once.
"An the records of the department
bearing upon the subject will be open
for your inspection and you will be
expected to fully and thoroughly in
yestigate any and every charge made
against his personal or official recti-
tude."
