Washington, July 19-An entirely new
set of sensational charges was sprung
today, out of the fight on the re-
appointment of John Shelton Williams
as comptroller of the currency. /
Representative McFadden. of Penn
rules committee, charged Williams as
sisted his brother Flaw, Lewis c.
Williams, of Richmond, Va, in the sale
Of the Arlington hotel and office build
ing site in the capital to the govern
ment for $4,000, 900, and that the comp
troller shared in the commission for
the sale. McFadden declared if the rules
committee did not provide for an in
vestlgatlon, he would move the impeach-
ment Of the comptroller from the floor
of the house. (
Mr.. McFadden asked that the commit
tee report out his resolution providing
for appointment of a special house COM
mittee to investigate the official conduct
of the comptroller, and announced that
if the investigation is not ordered he will
prefer charges on the floor of the house
and ask for Mr.. Williams impeachment.
Comptroller Williams in statement
today said the charges made by Mr..
McFadden were utterly without foun-
dation" and 'falsehood from start to
finish" He declared he had no interest
in the sale of the Arlington hotel prop
erty to the government and received no
compensation yet.
Comptroller Williams later called on
the committee of the senate banking
committee. which is considering his re-
nomination, to summon Mr.. McFudden
before the committee Monday to make
his charges and give the comptroller an
opportunity to reply.
Mr.. Williams said the Richmond law
firm of Williams & Mullen had been at
torney for the owner of the property
for many years and that if any COM
pensation was paid to it the payment
was for professional services, adding
that he had no interest in the transac-
ton.

Helena, July 19.-Eighteen
thousand sheep and 700 cattle
grazing in the national forest
near Flesher, in the Big Black
foot country, are threatened by
a forest fire near Lander's fork,
which has already burned over
1000 acres of the best state tim

within a mile of the federal re-
serve. All the timber of the
Blackfoot, ranches and live-
stock are endangered. The
blaze is near the ranch of Owen

Gilman has covered several
thousand acres of timber and is
considered unusually serious.

blaze and the Jimtown fire are
under control but the Elkhorn
creek fire east of the Missouri
river, near Hotter, has popped
up again.

obtain fifty men who are coming from
Butte and Great Falls, to fight the
Lander's fork fire which has been burn
ing several days. Several coyflagrations
have occurred in the Blackf,ot country
within the last few weeks.
Mr.. Byrne spent Friday trying to head
off the progress of the flames. He soon
found, however, that the fire is very
serious and that all the timber of the
Blackfoot considered among the best IN
Montana besides ranches. livestock and
other property are threatened. He came
to Helena for help.
