PROPERTYOWNERS PROTEST LIGHTS ood" that Smith was the "go-between" for the attorney general that Smith was the attorney general's right hand man and that when Daugherty was out of town, Smith occupied his desk. Means himself is under indictment in New York for an alleged attempt to bribe Daugherty, and he waived all immunity this morning when he took the stand before the senatorial committee. Means created another sensation in the crowded and breathless committee room when he declared that the Standard Aircraft Corp. thrust its president, a Mr. Mingle, sold to the Japanese government the models of airplanes used by the U.S. government. This is a phase of the matter that was not pursued with any diligence this morning but will be gone into later, according to the startled senators. Means asserted that he had acted as an investigator for President Harding who "wanted some information" concerning Secretary of the Treasury Andrew W. McLennon in connection with "liquor withdrawals." He asserted he had investigated Senator Robert M. LaFollette, Republican of Wisconsin, at the direction of Smith, after LaFollette had introduced his original resolution calling for a Senate investigation of Teapot Dome, and he calmly admitted he knew of LaFollette's mall being riffed; his office gone thru and the senator being otherwise "investigated." He declared he had also, at Smith's direction, "investigated Senator Garaway, Democrat, of Arkansas, one of the authors of the last year's impeachment proceedings against Daugherty. He said he had "investigated" Senator Bruce, Dem. of Maryland, on behalf of "some financial people." And finally, he said he had been suspended as an agent of the department of justice because he shoote too active" in investigating the oil situation and the Mexican can situation. Daugherty told him at the time of his suspension, Means said that he was being suspended at the request of another cabinet member. The inference was that it was Albert B. Fall. Means told his amazing story in an atmosphere of tensity in the crowded senate room. He spoke easily, naturally and seemed to be in a very good humor. Sometimes he threw the room into a gale of laughter with "wise cracks" about important officials in Washington and the relations he had with them. Means made it plain that he was the "go-between" for Smith, who committed suicide in Washington a year ago, in transactions involving the exchange of money. "State the first instance you got money, who from, and who you distributed it to," Senator Wheeler, the committee's "prosecutor," asked Means. "I got one hundred $1,000 bills in connection with the Standard Aircraft case," Means replied, smiling. "Where?" "In the Bellevue hotel here in Washington." "Who from?" "Mitsui and Company." "Who is Mitsui and Company?" "They were the firm financing the Standard Aircraft Company." "When was that?" "In 1922, just before Smith went to Florida." "You got one hundred $1,000 bills from a Japanese in the Bellevue hotel in February, 1922?" "Yes sir." "Who did you give the money to?" "Jesse Smith." Means added that Smith told him the Japanese would come to his room in the hotel and give him $100,000. WASHINGTON, March 14. — Sensation tumbled over sensation today in the senate's investigation of Attorney General Harry M. Daugherty and the department of justice. Gaston B. Means former operative for the department of justice and now under indictment in New York on charges of trying to bribe Daugherty, was the first witness and he "spilled" startling information in great quantities. Before he had been on the stand an hour, Means declared: That he had done private investigating work for the late President Harding who "wanted some information" about Secretary of the Treasury Andrew W. McLennon. That he had been swapped from the department of justice because he "had been too active" investigating the oil situation and the Mexican situation. That Daugherty informed him that his suspension was caused by the request of an unnamed coiner officer, the inference being that it was Albert B. Fall, secretary of the interior. That he had collected money from various persons on various occasions and turned it over to Jesse W. Smith a close personal friend of the attorney general; lived with him and occupied his Daugherty's office when he waway. That he furnished President Harding with information against the attorney general himself. That he investigated various senators, including LaFollette Wisconsin, and Caraway, of Arkansas, at the orders of Jesse W. Smith, altho Smith occupied official position, and he (Means) was an agent of the department of justice working under William Burns. WASHINGTON, March 14. Gaston B.

Means declared: he had done private in-ing work for the late Presiding who "wanted somelon" about Secretary of Treasury Andrew W. Mellon." The had been suspended the department of justice be-ing "had been too active" in the oil situation and economic situation. Daugherty informed him a suspension was caused by receipt of an unnamed cabi- officer, the inference being Albert B. Fall, secrete- the interior. He had collected money various persons on various cases and turned it over to Smith a close personal of the attorney general; who Smith and occupied his forty's office when he was furnished President with information againstorney general himself. He investigated various cases, including LaFollette of Sin, and Caraway, of Ar- at the orders of Jesse Altho Smith occupied no position, and he (Means) agent of the department of working under William J. HINGTON, March 14.—B. Means, former investigator the department of just now under indictment in work on charges of endeavor bribe Attorney General M. Daugherty, was the attorneys called today by the Brockhart committee in investigation of Daugherty and department of justice. Who has figured in a of trials and investiga-ook the stand over the pro- Daugherty's lawyers, who that the fact that Means under indictment in New lone was sufficient to make "When did you first go to work for the department of justice?" "Let me get my records," Means said, and walked to the side of the room and produced a large black leather satchel two feet long, filled with innumerable books and records. He put the books on the table. "They contain my diaries on work from hour to hour from minute to minute," he said. Wheeler ordered the diaries placed in the record without reading them. "Now, when did you first go to work for the department of justice?" October 19, 1921 and worked until February 9, 1922, when I was suspended. I was reinstated with back pay on May 26, 1922." "Have you letters there showing that?" "Yes, sir." Means then left the room again to get another satchel full of records. The second satchel was larger than the first and the crowd roared with laughter. The second satchel proved to be a complete filing cabinet of Means' letters. He read letters from Daugherty suspending him and later reinstating him. "By whom were you reinstated?" "By all of the department of justice." Means declared he had been suspended from the department of justice for being too active in investigating the Mexican oil situation. "You knew Smith had no position there?" "Oh, no; I don't even know that now. For instance, in my bread price investigation, I would talk over the ease with Smith. I was consulting with Smith all the time. That doesn't mean there were anything wrong there. Jesse Smith had knowledge of price conditions. He had been in the merchandise business." Means said any reports he showed to Smith were later turned over to the attorney general. Means said he discussed his suspension with Burns. "President Harding." "What were you doing there?" "Some under-cover work. Jesse Smith and Underwood wanted to catch Secretary of the Treasury Mellon and we caught him. The president wanted the information." Means was not permitted to go into details concerning his investigation of Secretary of the Treasury Mellon, and no effort was made to clear up his statement that one time Mellon "was caught" and that another time he "skipped thru." The explanation was made that the committee "was not investigating Mellon." "Did you work for the president?" "Didn't you furnish the president of the United States with information against Daugherty?" "Yes, I turned them over to Mr. Underwood. They were just accusations against the attorney general and were not based on facts." "By whom were you paid?" "By Jesse Smith and Underwood represented the president." "How do you know that?" "From a letter sent Smith, Underwood and me to handle the investigation." "What under-cover investigation did you make in New York for the president of the United States?" "Well, the prime investigation was concerning an arrangement that Secretary Mellon had gone into to furnish certain permits. We did not get him that time. He slipped thru our fingers that time." "Who paid you for these investigations you said were made for the president of the United States?" "Jesse Smith and Mr. Underwood." Means raid he also had investigated Senator Caraway, Democrat of Arkansas. "I sent for Laura Jacobson to come up from Arkansas to help me investigate Senator Caraway and I let Jacobson do the work." "When was this investigation completed?" for the department of justice now under indictment in work on charges of endeavor to bribe Attorney General M. Daugherty, was the witness called today by the New York Brockhart committee in investigation of Daugherty and department of Justice. Ms. Barns ageney represents and I suppose I've done some for them thus that agent."

ESCORT 2 OILMEN FROM SAGHALIEN TOKIO, March 14.—No protest will be made by the American embassy here to the Japanese government as a result of the escort of two American oil men, said to represent Harry F. Sinclair,from northern Saghalien Island. It was said no report on the matter had been filed with the embassy. The two men named McCullough and McLaughlin, with a Russian guide, arrived at Alexanderovak three weeks ago and were escorted on a Japanese gunboat to Otaru from whence they proceeded to Peking. Some doubt was expressedofficial circles here today, as to whether the men represented Sinclair. The foreign office and war office intimated, however, closewatch would be kept on the arrival of oil investigators of all nationalities.
