Subsequently, this conversation ya confirmed by letter, te which a for mal, reply was drafted. I suggested that the Attorney General should be Informed wltn particularity of the seri ousness of his request. A letter was then 'written which einnhnslzed the ne cessity of prompt action. "It was suggested en several occa sions that we go te Washington and lay the matter before the Attorney General or one of his assistants, but I was ad vised .that no interview could be ar ranged.

It would then adjourn for the term. Tite next Grand Jury would net meet for three months, about 'June 1. I drew Mr. Celes' attention te the fact tint the biggest case en the list, one In which the assistance of the Grand Jury was materially needed in developing ad ditional evidence, wirs being crowded te the Inst minute. Te my surprise be told me that there wns no present ne cessity for proceeding with the case. Still Mere Delay "On Saturday, March i. II. T. Jenes nnd Morgan C. Smith arrived from the Attorney General's office te discuss the case. I spent the major portion of the afternoon going ever the evidence in volving McConnell tthey manifested no interest In any one else). At the con clusion of this discussion I asked if they were satisfied with the evidence. I was then advised they hnd no authority te settle the question, but must report back te Washington. I asked that a deci sion be revcnled promptly. "I wns then told that we were not net expected te proceed at the present. time in nny event. I was net surprised nt this in view of Mr. Celes' previous sug gestion te me, nor was I surprised when Mr. Celes immediately agreed te the proposal. Tint I was indignant.- "I told them in. brief that the case had been hanging five or six months. That it wns the most flngrSnt conspir acy te defy the law that had come into the office. The case had been slipped past the Grand Jury In December te save tlie Attorney General from embar rassment. That if It was shuffled past this Grand Jury, I was through with Hint office. "They expostulated that Washington was Interested In the case. I told them Washington had five weeks te satisfy Us Interest nnd had new come In at the Inst moment te ask that no action be taken. There wns the law and there was the evidence, and Washington could change neither. I added that It wns the first time In my experience that Washington hnd ever attempted te held up n prosecution nnd I concluded by telling them that if I wasn't fired before Wednesday I would start the case be fore the Grand Jury. Inslsteden "Showdown" "I was emphatic. Five weeks of tel ephening and correspondence between District Attorney Celes and the Attor ney General had failed te release the dead hand grip or tne orders zrem Wnshlncten. It was my only chnnce.

"The representatives of the Attorney General, together with Mr. Celes, left me. I understand they telephoned Washington. Monday morning Mr. Jenes returned. He asked me te pre pare a report en the case. 1 told him I net only would de that but I would myself take It te Washington. On Tuesday morning I saw one of the as sistants te the Attorney General and came back with authority te proceed. Certain evidence nlready gathered was presented te the Grand Jury Thursday. Friday a court order wns secured espe cially continuing the Grand Jury beyond the regular term, which ended Snturdny, In order that a complete Investigation might be made. "On Saturday I snw Rush Helland, nsslstnnt te the Attorney 'General, In the office. He was closeted with Mr. Celes for an hour or mere. I did net meet him. nor was I told the purpose of his visit.

Beth the Attorney General and Mr. Celes, the District Attorney, are new in accord with the idea that the case should be proceeded with at once. Is the Attorney General new con vinced that my emphasis saved his de partment from a disgraceful failure of duty, or does he resent my emphasis as insuberdlnntlqn, and just ground for dismissal?
