INVESTIGATION TO BE MADE OF
 s ATTORNEY GENERAL PALMER

Washington, Nov. 4.-Attorney General Palmer. returned to his office here late to- day to find awaiting him telegram from Federal Judge Anderson at Indianapolis informing him that an investigation was to be made of MT. Palmer's connection with the soft coa leases.
 q am at a loss to know what Judge Anderson is proposing to investigate" Mir. Palmer said My connection with this case has been simply and only the con- nection of the attorney general with any government case"
 Mir Palmer had rot determined tonight whether he would go to Indianapolis per sonally in response to Judge Anderson s invitation.
 There were indications at the depart ment4 that the Controversy which precipf- tated recently the resignation of Dan ". Sirms as special prosecutor in the coal cases was, being reviewed. Correspond- ence between the department and MT. Sitnlns and all data having a bearing on the proceedings have been assembled. It was understood the attorney general plan- ned to go over the papers during the next few days.
 While some officials thought it possible that further action by Judge Anderson might warrant the attorney general in making public a statement of his posi- tion Ion all phases of the proceedings, the opinion was expressed that unless the judge himself threw additional light on the proposed inquiry, MT Palmer would remain silent Although in no way connecting the Simms controversy with matters to be in- | vestigated Ly Judge Anderson, MT Palmer maintained that his position with respect to using the coal conspiracy evi- 1 dence a second time was "the only right
 and proper" position to take. He was represented as feeling that to use. the evidence in the forthcoming case would amount substantially to placing the de | fendants twice in jeopardy. Compliance of the miners and operators with the in. 7, junction mandate of the court settled
 that. phase of f.ie proceedings, MT. Palmer
 was said to hold, which prompted him tt | instruct MT. Simms to exclude such evi
 dence from the second prosecution. | Officials admitted the expectation to
 night that Judge Anderson, acting on hi: own initiative, would call for introduc
 tion of this evidence. With that, officials i said, they had nothing to do, but thu
 statement was reiterated that the govern
 ment would not employ the information l as a part of it's case.
