He defeated Frank Irvine, wet Demo
crat, former Public Service Commits
sioner, by an estimated majority of
5000. Henry Is lawyer.
The election was of especial interest
throughout the East because it was
fought on the wet and dry issue, which
many predict will play an important
part in the regular Congressional fight
in November. The issue was injected
into the compaign Immediately after
the Democrats made their nomination.
Irvine declaring the next day that he
favored modification of the Volstead
act. Attorney Henry declared for an
enforcement Of the prohibition act and
spirited campaign was conducted for
two weeks.

charges "of utter lack of information
and due efficiency, if not criminal neg
ligence,' on the part of high govern
ment officials. Mr.. Woodruff intro
duced resolution directing Speaker
Glllett to name committee of fifteen
members to investigate the three agen-

declared on the floor by Representative
Johnson, were presented despite pleas
from Administration leaders in Con-
gress.
Johnson Attacks Weeks
"The crimes with which we are now
dealing cannot be charged as one of the
crimes against the late Administration,
for the reason that these corrupt deals
have been consummated under the
present Secretary Of War;" he said
Millions of dollars worth of supplies
have been sold and are being sold, he
charged, "to each of number of ia
vored purchasers by single negotia-
tior' without competitive bidding, with
out adequate bonds or deposits to pro-
tect the governments interests, indef-

age and delivery and, finally. cancel

of those specially favored sets of
grafters"
Secretary of War Weeks declined to
discuss the charges to-day. He said
he had copies Of the two speeches,

he may make some comment tomorrow.

thoritative estimates give Henry ma
jorities of 1900 in Tioga, 1900 in
Tompkins, about 500 in Steuben and
300 in Schuyler.
In view of the fact that party lines
were subordinated to the wet and dry
issue comparison of the Republican
majority with that of previous years
is without value. Houghton, Repub-
lican, was elected in the district two
years ago by approximately 10000
