SHUGHERTY IPEACAMENT FALLS FLAT o sy [ . ‘Washington, Dec. 20.—Procecdings be- tore the housé judiciary compmittee, in tonnection with the impeachment charg- es brought against Attorney ' General Daugherty, by Representative Kellar, re- publican, Minnesota, appeared today ,to be nearing an end. & R In fact it was lnd.imted that thé scope of future hearings would depend to a large measure upon the nature of in- formation to be laid before the com- mittee by Representative Woodruff, re- publican, Michigan, after his examina- tibn of documents at the department of Justice. After a brief public session today, at which no additional evidence was received the committee decided, in execu- tive meeting, to hear Mr. Woodruff to- morrow. Mr. Kellar having withdrawn,” the committee, proceeding on its own niti- ative, invited Mr. Woodruff and Repre- sentative Johnson, republican, South Da- kota; to testify. Both emphasized that they had had no part in the drafting of the Kellar charges. Declaring he had been ““dragged” in- to the hedring, Representative Johnson raid the charges he had made in the house relating to alleged war frauds, had been directed solely at the war de- partment. If the committee wanted to go into these charges he was prepared to give the names ‘of witnesses to sup- pora them, he continued,.adding that there were officers in the department who “should be court-martialed, instead of promoted.” As to the department of justice action in regard to war fraud cases, Mr. John- son said that in his judgment Attorney General Daugherty had proceeded with reasonable promptness in bringing the suits considering that he had had to reorganize the department after he came into office and had to have great masses of ipformation relating to the alleged frauds examined before any move could be made. Representative Woodruff also told "the committee that since he made has charg- es in the house last April of a#failure Py py Mr. Daugherty to prosecute war fraud cases, suits had been brought in six of the eight or nine instances he had cited and that necessaritly this had changed the situation materially. He added that it was not his purpose to embarrass the attorney general in.the conduct of the court procedings and’ that his opinion was that these cases, should not'je inquired into at this time. Asking that he and his ogemeel, H L Scaife, a former attorney Yemployed in the justice deépartment, be permitted to examine the documents in the “Wright- Martin case,” Mr. Woodruff said that whether he could present charges’ that would form the basis for impeachment proceedings _ within the scope of the Kellar specifications would depend upon what those documents disclosed. Assistant Attorney General Seymour immediately announced that the docu- ments would be made available to Mr. ‘Woodruff and his attorney. SEVEN MEMBERS,OF IRISH BEBEL ARMY EXECUTED .
