Hocsb —Doc. 30.—Mr. Potter, of Wis
reported the following resolution' which
vvnfl -.d ip: ■d: ’
Pesolved. That, the Secretary of the
Treasury bo requested to furnish without
unnecessary de'ay to the Select Committee"
!' strucied to inquire into the alledged dif
loys.ty of the government employeoi, the
information asked for by the letter of the I
•U mst., addressed by the-Chairman of
tho Committee to Secretary of Treasury.
Mr. Potter, also reported resolution cal.
1 ng on the Secretary of the Interior to
similarly respord. tlo said that it was
nooossnry that the Select Committo should
have this information in order to mako
tneir report,
i , M o, Wickliffe, of Ky , not caring to vote
Mindly on this question, inquired what
was tho character of tho information cal
rd lor ? Mr. Potter explained, in July
nst tho heads of the departments wore
[ requested to furnish lists of their respec
tive clerks, which they did; and the last
request which the secretaries of the Trees*
ury and Interior have not complied with
was to furnish tho Committee with the
name of such clerks mentioned in their
u st communication who have since teen
removed. It was necessary for the Com
mitteo to have the information in order to
I aseertain whether tho departments have
romoved those who have been roportod to
