ENGRAVING BUREAU
PROBE AUTHORIZED

The House today ordered an in
vestigation by n special committee
of the Brewer charges regarding
alleged duplication OF bonds and
other negotiable government paper
at the bureau of engraving and
printing.
The House passed the Smell resolu
ton, which is a substitute for the
King resolution, ordering that this
investigation shall be made by spe
cial committee of five members L
be appointed by the Speaker.
Chairman Smell of the rules com
mittee, explained the purpose of the
resolution. He told his colleagues
that he had consulted with Secretary
Mellon who advised him that the
government had not lost any money
by duplication of bonds. but that hc
favored the investigation in order
that the entire controversy which
had developed into a. scandal might
be cleaned up.
Representative watkins. democrat.

made by Charles B. Brewer, special
agent in the Department. of Justice,
by direction of President Harding.
Chairman Smell replied that an in
curry into the dismissals was not
necessarily contemplated in the resoiu-
ton.
Representative Finis ]. Garrett of
Tennessee, minority leader, explained
that if in investigating the duplica-
tion of bonds the trail led across that
of the dismissals from the bureau 81
that the subject became interviewer.
the investigating committee had au~
thority to inquire into the question of
dismissaIS.
Chairman Smell agreed with this
Interpretation. Representative r. Wal

discussed what he thought was a
real need for cleaning up the ques
tion OF Wholesale dismissal of officials

TRIBAL LAW HOLDS
UP GYPSY BURIAL
Subjects" Refuse to Bury
Queen Until Grave Is
Lined With Cement.

Rather than violate an ancient
tribal law providing that the grave
of a. fallen clansman must be lined
with cement to protect the body from
being destroyed, King Johns ordered
the burial OF Queen Eleanora, the
gypsy empress, stopped after the
cortege had arrived today at Mount
Olivet cemetery, because the vault
that was to have received the. body
was made of brick instead of cement.
More than 1000 persons, coming
from every walk of life, had gath
cred on the slopes of Mount Olivet to
watch the gypsy queen buried accord
ing to tribal rites antedating the
dawn of history, and a half a dozen
policemen had difficulty keeping them
from the passway of the funeral
train when it arrived from Balti-
more, where Queen EIeanora died
Thursday night.
Began Solemn Chant.
More than an hour late, the cortege
turned into Mount Olivet cemetery a
few minutes before L O'Clock. I'm
mediately the mourners began the
solemn chant of their requiem fare
well. Women, garbed in gaudy COL
ored clothes, quickly lined the fringe
OF the grave and the pallbearers lift
ed the casket from the hearse. Led
by the king of the tribe, the short
procession to the waiting sepulcher
7 began. When King Johns reached
the head Of the grave. however, lie
stopped and held up his hand. The
excavation had been lined with
brick instead Of cement. and he posi-
lively refused to permit the burial
to proceed.
So intense was the excitement
among the gypsies when they saw the
mistake that several policemen were
obliged to intercede to prevent what
looked like possible violence.
Finally officials of Mount Olivet
cemetery were acquainted with the
situation and offered to have Queen
Eleanora's body placed in the public
vault until the bricks can be re-
moved and the grave walled with n
lining of solid concrete, according to
the burial laws of gypsy customs.
Throngs at Cemetery.
Perhaps the largest crowd that
ever gathered at Mount Olivet ceme-
terry awaited the arrival of the flu
neral train from Baltimore long be-
fore the appointed hour. In public
busses, on foot and in shining limou
sines of expensive manufacture. they
arrived by the score and 1t was es-
timated that when the hearse bearing
the dead leader of Romany clans
reached the grave $500 persons We're
packed around nearby slopes in addi-
tion to the 400 gypsies who came to
attend the funeral from practically
every part of the United States.
Those who had hoped to have a
glimpse of the sterling silver .casket
in which the queen lies were disap-
pointed because it had been care
fully boxed up and all they saw
was an ordinary wooden casing COW
cred with white and red carnations.
Nothing could be seen across the bier
in which the queen had lain in state
in Baltimore since Thursday.
Began Work ON Grave.
A special corps of workmen began
Immediately to line the grave from

stated that the funeral services
