The Daugherty Impeachment pro-
ceedings before the House Judiciary
Committee broke up in a row to-day
when Chairman Volstead refused to
permit Representative Keller tMinn.)
who brought the charges against the
Attorney General, to submit state
nient accusing the committee of fa-
voritism.
| Amid commands to "sit down" !"
which he refused to heed, Mr.. Keller
threw the statement at Chairman Vol
stead and stalked out of the commit
tee room. Jackson II. Ralston, coun-
sci for Mr. Keller. finding himself an
attorney without a client, also retired
from the case.
| The committee issued subpoena for
Representative Keller to appear before
! the committee at 1898 tomorrow morn
ing. and 1t is expected there will be
further fireworks.
The net result is that the impeach-
| ment proceedings against Attorney Gen.
eral Daugherty are virtually at an end.
Unless Mr.. Keller changes his mind and
goes ahead with the charges, which he
says tonight he will not do, the case
is expected to be completed within the
next dayNor two. The present outlook Is
| that the committee will give MIR. Daugh-
erty a clean bill.
When Mr. Keller said he had "a state
ment to read. several members of the
committee demanded 10 know what was
| i'm II, but he declined to say. except
that il was in connection with the inn
| parchment case then upder considera-
| ton. E,veryb body began to talk at once.
! Paul Howland, counsel for Daugherty,
demanded that Keller tse sworn as a
witness IL he was to say anything. but
Keller shouted: Tin not on trial and
I'm not witness"
I'VE can make you witness If you
want to-" said Representative Michener
! (Mich).
"Do you want to lecture the commit
tee?" asked Representative Goodykoontz
| CIV. va.).
II may IL see fit replied Keller.
"Sit down. Sit down. snapped out
Representative volstead. banging his
lgavel. as Keller reiterated his demands
to be heard.
/
statement to you,' cried Keller. flinging
/ the paper on the chairman's desk.
Look here, you can't control this
committee You have no more rights here
than any other member of the House,
said Mr. Volstead.
Representative Keller insisted that he
must be heard. but would not be sworn.
! To this Volstead replied by orderiDg
him to be seated. a the same time point
/ ing with his gavcl to the witness chair.
At this point Keller made his declara-
| tion that he was through with the pro-
ceedings, threw his document at Vol
stead and dashed but Of the, room.
In addition to the Keller letter. which
accused the committee of trying TO
whtewash MIR. Daugherty, another
letter from Samuel Untermyer was sub
mittcd. 1t was OF similar tone TO the
effect that he would have nothing to
do with the hearings. because it was
evident the attitude OF the committee
was biased.

LONDON, Dec. IA (Associated Press).
Ambassador Harvey is returning 70

AS his return will coincide with the
presence in America of the British

assumed that Mr.. Harvey will take the
