PROBE TO EXTEND
Committee Ready to Investi
gate Charges Filed.
COURT MATTER IS FIRST UP
Attorney Ip Wolfe, of Tacoma, In
sists Palmer Should Be Removed
From Committee Because
of Prejudice.
OLYMPIA. Julv 2. (Sner-lnl 1 Th
House committee appointed to investi
gate the charges preferred asrainst
eight members of the Supreme Court by
Herbert N. De Wolfe, of Tacoma, this
afternoon announced a willingness to
probe any other charges that might be
mea against tnat tribunal.
In accordance with this policy, sub-
penas were issued for A. H. Denman
ana j. . Anderson, Tacoma lawyers,
whose names were supplied by Mr. De
Wolfe, with the statement that the two
men had Indicated a willingness to tes
tify before the committee concerning
x"1" maiiers involving the court.
The proceedings of the committee this
afternoon were brief. re Wolfe usicinir
for a continuance on several grounds.
one oi wnicn was that he had filed a
protest with Speaker Meigs against the
continuance of Representative E. B.
Palmer, of Seattle, on the committee.
Ie Wolfe's written protest to Speaker
Meigs charges Palmer with prejudice.
He asserts that before Palmer knew
whether the charges were well founded
the latter had declared It his intention
to have De Wolfe disbarred.
De Wolfe relates that when Palmer
was a member of the Senate in 1905
he opposed an amendment to a bill
pending which would permit cities to
operate municipal street railways out
side their corporate limits. This
amendment was desired for the relief
of West Seattle, particularly, where De
Wolfe was then City Attorney.
"The only private Interests that could
possibly have been affected by this
amendment," says De Wolfe In his let
ter, "were those of the Stone & Web
ster people. This little incident gave
me an insight Into which side Mr.
Palmer's bread was buttered on. At
least three of the cases which I shall
take up before your committee will be
cases which affected the Interests of
the Stone & Webster Company."
In his charges against the Supreme
Court De Wolfe cites four cases In
which he Insists the court decided
against the law and the facts.
De Wolfe's application for a continu
ance was granted to enable him to pre
pare his evidence, and the committee
will reconvene next Tuesday afternoon
In Olympia. Palmer will likely remain
on the committee, owing to the House
having taken a recess adjournment,
leaving the Speaker without -authority
to make a change if he so desired.
De Wolfe has asked the Bar Associa
