ciai Government investigator. today
declared that Mann blocked an inves-
tisation Of the packers early in 1917.
When Mr.. Mann said that his
amendment to the agricultural bill
proposing that the packers investiga-
tion be placed in the hands OF the
Bureau of Markets. he spoke an un-
truth when he said the packers knew
nothing of his amendment" Heney as
serted. ..t
Il shall produce letters" he con-
tinued. taken from the private files
or meat packers showing that the
packers had conferred with Mr.. Mann
prior, to his amendment. and that
these conferences related to an effort

tigation in the hands Of the Federal

TO KILL MANN AS SPEAKER

Just as the Speakership situation

disclosures by Francis ]. Heney
before the Senate Committee on Agr:-
culture alleging that Congressman
Mann Of Illinois was bribed by Swift
& Co. w. N. Hays, chairman Of the
Republican National Committee. put in
an appearance in Washington.
Mr.. Hayes came here from the Chi
cago conference. and 1t Is said he is
much concerned in the Speakership
controversy.
He is trying to smooth 1t out to
leave no sores. In quarters close to
Mr.. Hays it was said today his work
would be simplified by the Heney tes-
timony.
II was the prevailing impression
about the Capitol today that Heney's
statements would eliminate Mr.. Mann
from the Speakership contest II this
proves to be the case, Gillett Of Massa-
chusetts will be the leading candidate
However. he will not be permitted the
