An examiner of the Department of Jus- tice has been deputized by the Attorney General to make a thorough investigation of the charge that certain justices of the peace of the District have been making a practice of issuing process in cases of landlords against tenants for the recovery of possession of real estate before written complaint, sworn to by the complainant, has been filed. Special allegations to this effect have been made against two justices, whose names are withheld for the present. They will each be examined by the agent of the department. It is understood that the accused justices are charged with neglecting to first require complainants to make oath to their com- plaints, and, it is said, so general became the practice that charges were filed with the Attorney General. It is claimed that the cases are those in which real estate agents, acting for own- ers, rented houses, and then invoked pro- cess of law to oust tenants in arrears. In anticipation of such process being required, and in view of the fact that the agents might be out of the city when it became necessary to file the proceedings against the tenants, it is said that the agents six ed complaints in blank, and that these blanks were, in the absence of the agents, filled out by their clerks and presented to the justices of the peace, who thereupon, it is alleged, attested the complaints and is- sued process thereon. In some cases, it is said, the justices, upon the return of the complainants, sought to perfect the papers by then administering the oaths required in the first instance, When District Attorney Birney was asked by a Star reporter today if he had rm ceived any direction in the matter from th Attorney General, he stated that he not. He only knew, in an unoffic he explained, of the charges having been made, but was not aware against whom they had been filed. He very much doubted if he would have any connection with the matter, he being of the opinion that agents or examiners of the Department of Justice will investigate the charges.
