PHELAN'S SULLIVAN
REPORT A MYSTERY
Filed, but Believed Suppressed
by Bryan Because Against
Minister.
Prom Tho Tribune Bur,.ul

Washington, June 19.-One Of the
deepest mysteries Of official Washing
ton surrounds the report OF Senator
James D. Phelan into the charges
against James NJ. Sullivan. United
States Minister to Santo Domingo,
made by Walker X. Wick. former col
lector of customs In that country. The
report was made 70 Mr.. Bryan on May
1s. while he was still Secretary, but
there has been no word from the State
Department as to its contents. Mr..
BRYAN refused TO make II public. He
said he would first submit II to the
President, but whether he did no one
seems to know.
It is believed here that had Senator
Phean's investigation exonerated Mr..
Sullivan, Mr.. Bryan would have been
quick to make the report public, as 1t
was his custom never TO withhold any
thing putting his administration in a
favorable light. Consequently II is
believed here that Mr.. Bryan's min
lister to Santo Domingo has not been
whitewashed. II is not improbable that
while the report let Mr.. Sullivan down
comparatively easy so far as the
charges were concerned, II suggested
that he was temperamentally unfit for
the job.
Minister Sullivan was one Of those

SELECTED
TO OVERHAUL CITY
Brown Heads Committee That
Will Investigate Finance and
Extravaganza Charge.

Syracuse. y. Y. June 19.-Acting
Governor Edward Schoeneck made the
following appointments 10 the Senate
investigating committees to-day:
New York City Committee-Senators
Brown, Cromwell, Wicks, Lockwood,
Wagner and Cullen.
State Taxation Committee-Senators
Mills, Sanders and Boylan.
Labor Laws-Sena:ors Argetsinger
Spring and Pstten.
Statutory Consolidation - Senators
Walters, Newton and Carswell.
Niagara Falls Committee-Senators
Thompson, Norton and Simpson.
The committee Of which Senator
Brown is chairman was provided for
bv the Legislature for the purpose Of
investigating financial conditions in
New York City. Such an investigation
YVES threatened early in the session OF
the Legislature, but the idea was aban-
doned. After the criticism Of the di--
rect state tax by Mayor Mitchell and
President McAneny, however, 1t was
taken up again and passed.
The investigation is based on the
premise that the city Is being extrava-
gantly governed, and that change
should be made to reduce the burden OF
the taxpayer.
City officials ore anxious to know
when the committee will begin its ses-
g!ons, "a their plans for the summer
WI! depend largely on the time the in
will take. Employees Of the
Finance Department, the Office Of the
City Chamberlain and the Commission
er o. Accounts have been busy for some
time preparing for the investigation.

active support of the United States
will be given to an entirely rev set
of Mexicans-a coalition, it is expect
ed, of the Villa-Zapata faction, which
has demonstrated its willingness to
make peace, together with otLer ele-
ments.
Yet out of all the trouble and dis
sension in Mexico, out of the breaking
down of the old alliances, without clear
light as to what the new alliances are
to be or whether the number of con-
tending groups is to be increased as
result of the breaks in the last few
days, friends of the administration
drew a promise Of permanent peace,
as demanded in the recent ultimatum
OF President Wilson.
Their point of view was that, with
Villa and Oregon standing out as the
two strongest men, bereft of any of
their alliances which might have been
embarrassing in peace negotiations, it
was not improbable that mediation be-
tween the two might result in their
uniting, with ultimate peace in Mexico
as the result. II was pointed out to-
night that could the two men be in
duced TO get together they would have
little trouble in stamping out any other
factions that might still wish TO con-
tinue trouble making. The result
might be an election which would place
IN the Presidential chair of Mexico a
man who could rule the country In
peace and harmony for the first time
since the elder Diaz sailed for Europe.
IL is believed here that this will be
the law will take care of that part of
it. Ii is out of my hands. But | wish
you no i'll, and / can honestly say that.
the solution should the positions of
Obyegon and Villa continue as strong
as they were represented TO be in the
latest dispatches from Mexico. The
other possibility. of course. is that the
various bands into which the previous
alignments have been divided continue
a kind Of warfare, which might be even
more Objectionable than that which has
continued for the last few years. The
group headed by Eulalie Gutierrez is
from a military viewpoint negligible,
though with the other factions so no.
tably reduced by splits even the Cutter
req faction might become a factor.
Zubaran's resignation strengthens the
report that Oregon and Carranza have
split. because Zubaran was a close DO
litical friend Of Oregon. and il is not
believed that he would have left the
Carranza Cabinet while Oregon was
still warm in his friendship for the
first chief. 1t is also not believed that
Carranza would fly for safety to the
island fortress merely because Of the
resignation Of some of the members of
his Cabinet A break with the com.

cries | will try and not cherish a spirit
of hatred and of revenge toward you;
What has been done has been done. and
God helping me. I will really try TO
cherish toward you a spirit of forgive
ness.

girl have with me. The baby ! have

that YOU find comfort in the Gospel and
that you are entertaining the Chris
tian lie. May God remember YOU in
great mercy! JOHN HARRISON"
That is what Harrison wrote last
winter. and ne hasn't changed his mind
about il. He wants the negro to have
the full penalty of the law, because he
doesn't think he is a safe man to have
alive. If he was given a life sentence
in a few years he might behave well
and be allowed to 20 free.

work" interrupted Mrs. Harrison.
"You mustn't say that, mother" Mr.
Harrison reproved her gently. Il only
know that ne must have cherished
some hatred against me. because he
was not insane and he had not been
drinking when he came into the. barn
and fred five shots at me. My wife
had come into the barn 70 get pail OF
water. Four of the shots hit me and
the last one killed her. II he had been
drunk he couldn't have taken such good
aim.
"At one time | thought it was the
hard cider that was responsible. He
had been trying to break off drinking,
and said he would not 20 to the village
for whiskev if | would let him have
barrel OF cider in the barn. so he could
get il when he felt the craving. | told
him | would if he honestly wanted to
reform and would not abuse the priv
ilege."
1t is generally believed in Pawling
that Haynes's animosity toward his
employer was connected with his fancy
for the latter's wife. Of this John
Harrison never speaks.
The petition which Haynes's lawyer
is circulating in Putnam County has
not reached the village of Patterson,
where the Harrisons lived at the time
of the murder. nor Pawling, where he
is feebly beginning life again in the
dairy business.
"They better not bring any petition
around here. Nobody in Patterson has
any mercy for Haynes" This was the
consensus Of opinion at the grocery
store.

Battle Halted While
CarranZa Thinks
IBy telegraph to Tn. Tribune. ]

Galveston, June Ie.-The forces OF
Pablo Gonzales, now before Mexico
City, will join those of General Obre-
gon, Cnrranza's mninstay, in Central
Mexico, II Carrnnza does not reorganlze
his Cabinet. This is the substance OF a
cable dispatch received hero late to-day
The battle at Mexico City which be,
gan yesterday has been halted until
Carranza determines what he will do,
according to the same dispatch.
General Gonzales, the dispatches de-
clare, favors changes In the Carranza
Cabinet and will unite his forces with
those Of Obregon and fight for these
changes unless the First Chief makes
them. Advices are that the discussions
regarding the Cabinet came as result
Of Carranza's determination not to
confer with Villa for peace. Both Con-
zales and Obregon favor a cessation OF
hostilities while peace plans are per-
fected, and want those members Of the
Cabinet who will not agree to this re-
moved. Carranza's consul here declares
o-day that no such plans will be nc
cepted by the First Chief.

Paving, n. Y, June 19.-John Harrl-
son came slowly through the gray az
ternoon with his motherless little girl
clincing to his hand. He carried pail
Of milk. but it was very heavy for him
and he walked painfully. Two Of the
bullets from the revolver which killed
his wife a year ago entered his shout
der and have never been removed. 1t
is only within a few months that Har-
rison has been able to get about the
lonely little farm in Pawling to which
he retreated with his sorrow soon after
the tragedy.
And now they have asked him to re-
quest Governor Whitman to pardon the
negro farmland who murdered his
wife.

not forgive him. although | have tried.
