 ATTORNEY GENERAL
Representative Keller Claims Daugherty Has Exceeded
 His Authority
By Associated Press

Washington, September 11.-Im- peachment charges against Attorney General Daugherty, growing out of his petition for an injunction in the cases of striking. railway employees, were presented to the House today by Representative Keller of Mime sota, independent republican. After a brief furry they were referred to the judiciary committee with members, republicans and democrats alike, pre- dieting they never would be heard from again.
 Seven specific charges were set forth in the Keller complaint, em- bracing alleged attempts to bridge the freedom of speech. the freedom of the press and the right of people peaceably to assemble. The Attor- ney General was accused of threat ening citizens who had opposed his attempts to override the constitu- tlon;" he was charged with using the funds of his office 'illegally and without warrant" for the prose cution of individuals and corpora tions for certain lawful acts;' with failure to prosecute violation of the law" after those violations have be- come public scandal" The con cluding counts charged that the At torney General had defeated the ends of justice by recommending the re- lease from prison of wealthy of- lenders against the sherman anti trust act and with failure to prose- cute persons legally indicted for crimes against the people.
 Referred to Committee
 At the conclusion of the reading of his charges, MT. Keller offered and the clerk read the usual im- peachment resolution for an investi- gation of the official conduct of the Attorney General at the same time announcing he was prepared to go before the committee to fn- troduce evidence and witnesses in proof charges.
 When he moved that the House adopt his resolution, Representative Mondell, republican. was on his feet, however with motion to refer the whole proceeding to the judiciary committee and it was put through with only few voices being lifted in opposition. Sometime In the fu- ture according to the view expressed by leaders the committee may re- port adversely on the resolution or else let it sleep for all time. The only expression from members on the floor was by Representative Blanton, democrat, Texas, who sought to have the reading stopped on a point of order that it was not tprivi- legged. Speaker Gillette swept the objection aside and the House was quick to follow It's leader in pre- venting a vote on the Keller motion for immediate action.
