District Attorney of this district in the investigation of all claims for pensions and bounties in connection with which charges are made against attorneys, and to examine such cases as the District Attorney shall desire to pre- sent the grand jury, I agree with 3 ou that such appointment cannot e made to cover examinations where the offenses charged are not offenses against the United States, but the District Attorney, in his letter to you includes cases where these pension agents make fraudulent applications to the pension office.
