Sullivan as American minister to the Dominican Republic was procured by certain financial interests for their own ends was the opinion expressed yesterday | by Walter W. Vi former receiver i general of Dominican customs, at the { opening session here of an investiga- ith)n into allegations made by | against Sullivan. The investigation lis being conducted before Senator- jelect James D. Phelan of San Fran- sco appointed a special commission- er by the state department to take testimony in the matter. The testi- i mony taken was under three heads— the circumstances surrounding Sul- appointment, his fitness for e position, and his conduct in office- Tried to Prevent Appointment. Mr. Vick, the first witness sum- moned, testified that before his: ap- pointment as receiver of customs, he met William C. Beer, who he under- stood was identified with the inter- ests of the Banco Nacional of Santo | Domingo; and a Mr. Gold, said to be connected with Beer in a fruit com- pany, who expressed a desire to be appointed to the post which Vick lat- er obtained. These men in his opin- jon, did all they could to prevent his appointment to the customs service. | “Dia they procure the appointment i of Sullivan for their own ends?” Vick was asked. “I think they did,” he replied. Cousin on Visit. 2 After the arrival of Minister Sul- [livan in Santo Domingo, the witness i continued, he began to suspect that Beér, Gold and Samuel M. Jarvis said :to be connected with the Banco Na- i cional had undue interest in the re- ceivership of customs. “My suspicions were first aroused,” he continued, “when they demanded that the depository of the customs funds be changed to the Banco Na- cional. Then Minister Sullivan’s i cousin, Timothy Sullivan, came to the island - to visit. I learned later that he was to head a $20,000,000 con- cern to operate there.” Fooled for Some Time. “Was he a $20,000,000 man?" asked Commissioner Phelan. “He was not. I am frank to mit that I was fooled for some after T went to Santo Domingo.” g -That the ap- ad- time & NIVEN | pleaded jgnurance .of Several letters and cablegrams be- tween Secretary Bryan and Minister Sullivan were produced at the hear- ing. In these Sullivan categorically de- nied most of Vick's allegations and any wrongdo- | ing in'the others. * For Those Choking Cougs Those dreadful colds that fairly threaten life,. there is one remedy | that will bring quick relief, and that is KERR'S FLAX-SEED | EMULSION LINONINE.

The secretary says the need for re- serve officers is so great that it seems no argument need be presentéd in support of the bill, while history fur- nishes the facts necessary to support this legislation. In brief, the bill. authorizes the president to commission as officers of the reserve corps not above the grade of colonel such citizens as may qualify under the rules laid down by the sec- retary of war. The reserve officers are not to be entitled to retired pay nor pensions except for disability in- curred in the line of duty in actual service. This body of officers may be called upon for active service for the president only in the event of ac- tual or threatened hostilities. FED ON TURKEYS.

Lewis, chairman of the house committee on labor, announced that the committee on labor, an- nounced that the commttee on in- dustrial relations, which had been in- vestigating conditions of unemplos ment in various forms, is now draft- ing a bill for the creation of a fed- eral employment bureau. The bureau to be created by the Lewis bill will take the place of the temporary agency for unemployed men, which will be organized by Immigration Commissioner Caminetti. “There are now many municipal bureaus to bring the job and the unemployed man,” sald Lewis. *“My idea is that these could be co-ordinated with a national bureau. The fedeal government al- state and together ready has the machinery to run the | federal employment bureau in its ex- tensive post office department, whose ramifications reach every nook and corner of the land. The post office could be made an agency for the dis- semination and collection of informa- tion regarding work and unemployed men. The federal employment bureau could distribute its information through the post office.

VACCINATION FRUITFUL, Typhoid Virtually Disappears After Troops Undergo Treatment. Paris, Jan. 13, 4:40 A. M.—The war has demonstrated beyond all question, according to members of the medical cemmission, the -efficaciousness of an- ti-typhoid vaccination, Most of the members of the active army had been vaccinated before the war, but the | reservists and territorials drafted and | sent to the front later had not, and as a result, towards the end of Octo- ber, a large number of cases of ty- phoid developed. The medical commission sent doc- | tors to the firing line and they vaeci- | rated a whole army corps of 40,000 men. By the end of December the good results of this treatment became | apparent, as typhoid had virtually dis- appeared, the only cases remaining being among the men of two regi- ments which the doctors were unable to reach.
