I ARE DISSATISFIED WITH CLALLAM INVESTIGATION. Claim That It Is a Farce From Start to Finish, and Will Carry the Fight for Facts up to Washington Have Appointed a Committee to Intercede With the Government Authorities. Seattle, Feb. 4. Convinced that the Clallam Investigation, as con ducted by Marino Inspectors Whit ney and Turner Is nothing but a farce, and convinced that Is will eventually -result in a whitewash un less the Inspectors are forced by oTitsldo influence to chango N their present tactics, the local lodge of Elks will insist that the government authorities at Washington designate competent counsel to be present at the further sessions ot the inquiry, and be given the right to cross question witnesses. The Elks, who are determined that' 'tho real facts shall bo brought to light, and that those responsible for the death of the 54 victims of the disaster shall be made to suffer, held another meeting last night and discussed the investigation thor oughly. Tho Inspectors were roundly censured for their palpable efforts to shield Captain Roberts, and for trying to release tho Puset Sound Navagation company from all responsibility in tho affair. It was decided that the Elks should again appeal to tho Wash ington authorities, and a committeo composed of James Hart, J. P. Hughes and E. Van Tobel called on United States District Attorney Frye, this morning and lodged com plaint against the methods pursued by the inspectors. Frye informed the committee that he was powerless to act with out Instructions from Washington, and he advised the committee that it should take the matter up direct ly with the government authorities, and if he received orders to take any active part in the inquiry, he would then do so. The committee then wired Super vising Inspector Bermlngham at Washington, requesting that ho au thorize some local attorney or atj tornies to attend the sessions of the Jnvestlgatlon and cross-examine each witness, In case he is not mado to tell all he knows by tho in spectors.
