Of one of the vessels used In the Gus
toms service.
Mr.. Dickey was asked about the con-
tract awarded to Timothy L. sullivan p
cousin Of Minister sullivan, to repair a
bridge but he gave the Commissioner
no Information supplementary to his
report to the Department. He said he
did not know how or why Tim Sullivan
had gone down to Santo Domingo to
look for contracts nor could he explain
why Minister Sullivan had written a
letter to Dominican officials explaining
that his cousin was not to receive special
consideration because Of the relationship
Charles A. Albrecht. Deputy Consul
General TO Santo Domingo was the other
witness at the session to-day. He said
his relations with Minister Sullivan had
been friendly. lie could not recall that
he had ever criticised the Minister or
repeated table talk" concerning him.
Mr. Albrecht had never heard Of a
charge nude by Americans in Santo
Domingo that Mr.. Sullivan was respon-
sible for bloodshed and destruction OF
property In the revolution. hut he knew
the Minister was unpopular with one
faction OF the natives and popular with
the other.
He said he had always found the Min
lister ready to do what was right and
an untlring worker, and that. I'm his
opinion. Mr.. sullivan had rendered
valuable services to the Dominican Gov
eminent. especially In bringing about
the engaging of a financial expert to
supervise public expenditures.
Documentary evidence heretofore re-
ferred TO IN the inquiry was placed In
the record among other papers being
Weeks confidential memorandum for the
state Department defending Minister
Sullivan. criticising Director General OF
Public Works Mann and urging that a
rigid investigation was advisable.

tary Bryan since the stirring times of
"the arst battle" Mr.. Bryan has been
intimately associated with DR.. Dickey
In Chautauqua work for several years.
Asked for his experience and quail
fiCations for the work OF expert inves-

tions that he had done a great deal

three years service as n station agent
for Western railroad and that he

ton Of an electrical interurban line and
had been in construction work as a
contractor.
He had been also superintendent Of
= bottling works that put up the min
eral water from the springs at his
brothers Chautauqua Park. lie ad-
mltted that he was neither an engineer
nor certified pubic accountant.
Mr.. Dickey gave Minister Sullivan y
good character and Receiver General
wick a correspondingly bad one
II think Minister sullivan is all right
and a good man for the place. he said
"He gets along with those people as well
az any American could"
lie said he regarded Wick as a disap-
pointed ofIiceseeker who was sore AT

AFFIDAVIT was submitted to the commits
sioner in New York stating in effect that

where Wick and other custom officials

Mr. Dickey gave the names OF several

said. Asked what Wick had done tc

But despite his strong stand the
best that the Canadian Premier could
bring home with him was "a pledge
from the imperial Government that
pending n final solution Of the ques-
ton Of voice and influence" they would
welcome the presence IN London OF
Canadian Minister during the whoe or
a portion Of each year. Such "A MIN
ister would be regularly summoned TO
all meetings OF the Committee Of Inn
perial Defence which is "A purely ad-
vsory body and ha.- nothing whatever

the arrangement gave Canada infcrma-
ton about and influence in the foreign
policy OF the empire but did not and
did not pretend to give her authority
In It,
Yet. pending final solution Of
the question Of voice and influence"
Mr. y rdcn was quite willing 20 take
what he could get, and the arrange
meut was undoubtedly a distinct step
in advance.

ant, was sent to london, and has since

thus kept informed Of the plans being

however. that Sir Robert Borden does
not intend t. rest content with the

Began Fight 20 Year. AGO.

Ever since he became prominent In
Canadian politics. nearly twenty years
ago, Sir Robert Borden has kept before
him the ideal OF the Dominion with a
voice in the determining Of the issues Of
peace and war for the whole empire. u
was not. however. until 1910 that his
stand attracted more than Canadian at
tentlon. When In that year Sir Wifrid
Laurier introduced his naval bill Mr.
Borden, who was then leading the Con-
sentative opposition. strongly took the
stand that the question Of control was
not sufficiently definite to suit his views
Of what should he the relation OF Canada

cusslng the question In n now famous
speech In the House Of Commons he
said:
~ think the question OF Cnnada's CO.
operation upon n permanent basis in i'm
peri1l defence involves very large and
wide considerations. II Canada and the
other dominlons OF the empire are to
take their part as nations Of this empire
In the defence ~ the empire as "A whole
shall It be that We. contributing 10 that
defence or the whole empire, shall have
absolutely as citizens or this country no
voice whatever in the councils OF tho
empire touching the issues Of peace and
war throughout the empire? | do not
think that such would he tolerahle con-
dition I do not think the people OF
Canada would for one moment submit to
such condition"
That was in 1910 The following
year saw the defeat of the Laurier
Administration and Mr. Borden in
Great Britain consulting the Admiralty
as 70 the best means by which Cam
ada could contribute to the effective
fighting forces OF the empire. Again,
however, he brought strong pressure
20 hear upon the imperial Government

give Canada greater voice in i'm
