inquiry

by Representative William

list of

Iowa, asking for employes of the

Canal Commission and a statement of

their total salaries and expenses.

This commission, which has been in existence for three years, consists of Rear-Admiral John G. Walker, president; cx-Senator Pasco, of Florida: Alfrdd Noble, of Chicago; Colonel Bains and Lieutenant Ernst. «>f the engineer corps of the army: Prof. Lewis Haupt of Philadelphia. George S. Mhrrison. Prof. Emory Johnson and William H. Bury, of Nen^^'ork. com- ‘ missifpicr*. with'Lieut.-C<^. Sidney A.

Staunton, of the navy, as secretary.

The act authorizing it appropriated $1,000,000 lor salaries and expense*. President Walker has drawn, it is alleged, during the three years $15,000 a year as his salary, and each of his associates on the commission, it is said, has drawn $12,000 a year. The commission has no: yet spent the last halt of the $1,000,000. but it is understood that a large sum has been spent ior the expenses of travel, sdrvcys, clerk hire and various liabilities in connection with

the work of the commission.

It is charged by Mr. Hepburn that the commission made places for the sons of the army and navy officers and of Senators and Representatives and others prominent in political and social life, and gave them pay iar beyond their
