The Commisetoners Examined by the Congressional Committee. TRE CASE OF MR. CAMPBELI—SEVERAL LEADS TAKEN UP AND FOLLOWED TO SOMEWHAT AB- SURD EXDINGS—MR. ROOSEVELT GRATIFIED HAVING CHARGES FORMULATED. A quorum of the House civil service eommit- tee, the three civil service commissioners, Mr. Hatton of the Washington Post, Representative Ewart and a large number of witnesses were assembled last night in the large, badly venti- lated room in the lower basement of the Capi- tol. Mr. Lehibach, the chairman of the com- mittee, sat at the head of the long council table, At his left sat Messrs. Butterworth, Greenhalge, Stephenson and Lind, and at his right Messrs. Andrew, Dargan, Stone and Boat- her, members of the committee. Mr. Hatton of the Post and Representative Ewart of North Carolina, the two prosecutors, sat at the other end of the table. looking over a scroil and whispering together. A table was placed on one side of the room for newspaper men, and every preparation was made in the most solemn way to investigate the charges made against the commission. COMMISSIONER LYMAN EXAMINED. Mr. Lyman was first placed upon the stand andsworn, He was turned over to Mr. Ewart for examination and the widest latitude was given the prosecution as to the character of juestions that might be asked. Many times ese questions were such as to provoke pro- test from members of the ¢cominittee on ac- count of their irregularity, bus it was indicated that the purpore was to give the prosecution every possible opportunity to make up thelr own case in their own way and they were per- mitted to proceed in any fashion, The examination of Mr. Lyman was upon the matter of A. C. Campbell's furnishing a copy of obsolete examination papers to a lady ia one of the departments and generally as to the history of Campbell's connection with the com- mission, Brieily the story told by Mr. Lyman in answer to these questions was that Mr, Campbell was tirst associated with the commis- sion by being detailed from the Agricultural department. This detail was made while Mr. Lyman was chief examiner, not a member, of the commission and during his absence frow the city. It was not at his instance and he knew nothing at all of it until on bis return he found Campbell at work. Later, when an ap- ‘opriation was made for # laborer Camp- ell was appointed to that position aud taken off the rolls of the Department of Agriculture, At that time the force of the civil service commission was not in the classi- fied service, but nevertheless Campbell had aresey an examination and was on the eligible f the classified service when he got this ppointment, which might have been given to any one without examination. Campbell had since been promoted three times; first to $900, then to $1,000 and then to €1,200, the salary he now gets. ‘Chis last promotion was made after the giving out of the papers and at a time when Mr, Lyman was the only commissioner. All these promotions had been made in an or- derly way, without favor, THE EXAMINATION PAPERS GIVEN OUT. As to the giving out of the examination papers by Mr. Campbell Mr. Lyman said that his attention was first called by Mr. Oberly to the fact that papers had been given out. Mr. Lyman had examined the papers, not noticing the handwriting particularly,but look- ing into the questions to determine whether rd were the questions of the commission, had no doubt then that they were cgueoe questions and he gave them to the chief examiner with instructions to see whether or not they were current questions and to examine the handwriting. ‘The next day Mr. Doyle saw Mr. Lyman and said he had no doubt that the writing was that of Campbell. Mr. Lyman then examined the writing and had no doubt that it was Camp- beii’s, He so told Mr. Oberly. He then sent for Mr. Campbell and asked him if he had seen the papers before. After a brief examination Campbell replied that he had seen them before and that they were in his handwriting. Mr. Lyman started to say what he had said to Campbell, but Mr. Ewart objected that he was reading from manuscript, Mr, Lyman stated that he was telling facts; that the state- ments before him were prepared by himself and he was using them to refresh his memory. Mr. Ewart objected further aud Mr. Lyman said he had no objection to testifying without reference to the paper. In answer to questions he said that the statement was one prepared for the President at his request, THE INTERVIEW WITH CAMPBELL. Mr. Lyman then went on with his statement. He said he told Campbell that it was a serious matter and that he did not know what would come of it, but he wanted him to speak frankly and tell the whole truth about the papers. Mr. Campbell replied in substance: “I wrote those papers for a lady, a friend of mine, a clerk in the pension office, who has some idea, at some time in the future, of taking an exam: nation for promotion. She asked me if I couid assist her in any way in preparation for that examination. I told her I did not know of any way in which I could help her. What she wanted was something that would give her an idea of the general character of the questions that were asked in the examinations for promotion. I finally said that I might give her an old set of questions that had been used in former examinations, and that in their general featurcs would embrace the same subjects that were embraced in the examinations for promo- tions. I therefore copied this set of papers and gave them to her, with the understanding that when she looked them over they were to be de- stroyed. I know nothing of the papers since that time until you now show them to me. I supposed that they had been destroyed. “1 said to him, ‘this matter wiil have to be investigated. You tell me that these are the facts, but the matter will have to be looked into, aud I propose to learn whether you have told me the truth about these papers.’ ” TURNED OVER TO MR. OBERLY. Mr, Lyman then turned the case over to Mr. Oberly to investigate, as he (Lyman) was re- lated to Mr, Campbell. He asked Mr. Oberly to siftthe matter “9 the bottom. Afterward Mr. Oberly told Mr. Lyman that he had made a very thorough investigation, examining every- body at all connected with the matter or know- ing redo rere it; that the statements all corroborated that of Mr. Campbell. Mr. Overly said that as the questions were obsolete and no one had been wrouged and as the offense did not involve any serious moral delinquency his judgment was to reprimand Campbell and drop this matter, Mr. Ewart asked: “Was it not a very im- proper thing for an employe of the civil ser- vice commission to take questions from the file and give them to outside parties?” Mr. Lyman replied: should say it was a serious breach of discipline.” Mr. Ewart then asked if he did not think Mr. Cumpbeil’s action disreputable, and Mr. Lyman replied: have given such a Characterization of it as I think it properly deserves, and I pre- fer to adhere to that characterizatio: I think it was a serious breach of discipline.” In answer to further questions he said he thought it was a breach of discipline requirin punishment, Mr. Oberly,who had investiga! e case, thought a reprimand sufficient. Mr. Ewart asked if it would not be regarded by’ the present commission as an act deserving ae Greenhalge at this point said he thought jaca, permet were being asked in a very un- manner and that too great latitude was one the prosecuting examiner. MR. CAMPBELL’S PROMOTION. Witness said that Mr, Campbell’s promotion had come a year after this episode. He was i. i: = i ? i REE much ado over this question by the prosecution some ove happened to ask when Miss Lyman Red uovee got en egpetsanent Stone’ she See neve: an tment, th passed the examination, At thin Reena al en clamation of disgust escaped from commit- tee men. Several members of the committee began to grumble very loudly at the method fi by the prosecution, as they thought, to waste the time of the committee, NEVER HEARD OF HIM. The witness was questioned as to whether he knew a man named Charles J. MoOaffrey, at present a clerk in the city post office, and he re- lied that he not only did not know him bus ~t never heard of the name. ir. Ewart then asked if he knew of any one sania secured a place by being impersonated o@ examination by another. Witness said he had known of ench cases im New York and elsewere, but not in Washington, In answer to F eryormd by Mr. Greenhailge, it was developed that papers once used in exami- nations weré not again used, and that the papers given out yy Mr. Campbell were some that had been used, _ witness said, any- body could see such pay Bat the taking of any papers by a subordinate without permis- sion wasa breach of discipline, ‘That was the extent of Campbeil’s offense, Mr. Greet nhalge— ‘A mere technical breach of discipline.” ‘MR. EDGERTON'S CRITICISM. At the opening of the investigation the letter of Mr. Edgerton to President Harrison criticis- ing the commission was filed with the com- mittee by Mr. Ewart. Speaking of this eriti- cism Mr. Lyman said that the board bad held meetings almost every day for a year after this occurrance and that Mr. Edgerton had never uttered a word of criticism: against Mr, Oberly’s disposal of the case. HE GOT NO APPOINTMENT, After a great number of questions had been asked and answered as to Mr. Campbell's ex- amination for the eligible list, all the answers showing that the exammation was in every way regular, and that while it might have been made by Mr. Lyman, then chief examiner, it was made with a number of others and the marking not done by Mr. Lyman. it was dis- covered that Mr. Campbell bad received no ap- pointment on that examination, Witnes said that Campbell had denied selling the questionsand that all the witnesses in the case had substantiated him in this, Mra, Smith, for whom he got them, denied it ands letter from Prof. Flynu, who was said to have bought them, denied the purchase. & POSTPONEMENT ASKED, At the close of Mr. Lyman’s testimony the prosecution tried to secure a postponement. They did not want any witnesses examined until after Mr. Oberly and Mr. Vickery of Obio had been examined. Mr. ery was too far away to get to Weshington | in time to testify for some days, and the prosecution had not asked for the subpena of Mr. Oberly until they reached the committee room, Mr. Ewart and Mr. Hatton both loudly pro- tested against going on with the examination before Mr. Oberly was called. The committee wanted to examine Communsioners Roosevelt and Thompson. Mr. Hatton said he did not care to have them examined. They might leave at any time. “But,” sud the chairman, “we do want to hear their statements. Mr. Greenhalge protested that this action of the prosecution looked like tritling with the committee. Mr, Hatton denied that ti were trifling, and said that they proposed to show that some of the statements made by Mr. Ly- man Were not correct, MR, ROOSEVELT EXAMINED, The committee decided to go on and Mr, Roosevelt was put on the stand. He was ques- tioned by Mr. Butterworth and said: “About the 1st of last October there were two or three articles in the Washington ost concerning the conduct of Campbell, who was charged with Stealing examination papers and giving them t2 some woman who wanted to pass an exami- nation, Mr. Lyman was absent from the city at the time of the publication, and Gov. Thompson and myself at first disbeheved the story. We made some inquiry of Mr. Doyle, our chief clerk, and fow a tis that there was some foundation for it, We also found for the first time that Mr, ¢ — »bell was Mr, Ly- man’s brother-in-law. ~y 2) never known that before. We ‘om cummones Camp- bell and Mr. Doyie before us and also questioned Mr. Lyman when he came back, We found that the offense bad been committed two years before; that at the time the ~ acting president of the commission had gone carefully into the matter, and after an investigation had decided that it did not call for Mr, C: ‘ampbell's dismissal and accordingly had retained him. W. — up our minds that whatever might b our personal judgment us to the equities of the the case, as far as we could get at them, we were not willing on secondary evidence, two years after the event, to reverse the decision of the commission, two years before, with all the facts before them. “The governor and myself discussed the ques- tion at length on more than one day—on five or six occasions—for, of course, it annoyed us very much. He said that they decided to put their statement on the records of the commis- sion and he prepared such a statement. He submitted the statement to the committee.” THE CROSS-EXAMINATION, Mr, Ewart then began a most persistent cross-examination, “What would you do if a man took papers as Campbell did?” Mr. Ewart asked. Mr. Roosevelt said it would depend on the circumstances. Ifa man stole papers from the files of the commission he would dismiss him, For giving out papers without authority he thought he would dismiss an employe. “I would certainly move to dismiss any em- ploye,” he said, “who gave out questions to any one.” “You would follow the discovery of the act es ee dismissal?" © He oid, however, that papers might be given out under misapprebcnsion, or there might be the excuse of innocence of motive, &c., to change his view of the case. All de- pended on the circumstances. As the questions went on members of the committee from time to time protested against the method followed by the prosecution. But Mr. Roosevelt's answers were direct and em- phatic, He finally insisted upon knowing if there were any charges against the present commission, saying that he could not tell whether or not the charges were aimed at the present or past directed commission. They appeared at the prevent. He did not know whether the trouble was that the editorials in the past were lacking im good English or in truthfulness. If they were applied to the present commission they were faise, he said. He read from the editorials and asked that the charges be formulated ina Proper way. r. Ewart replied: “There are no charges whatever it the nt commission.” At this au exclamation of surprise Barat from the members of the committee and Mr. Roose- velt threw his hands in the air with amazement. MR. HATTON'S CHARGE, ‘Mr. Hatton then got up and stated that he charged and wanted to prove that the present
