He gives the assurance that the iuves ligation will be continued. "The results," he says, "have made it obvious that only by carrying on the investigation as the war de partment has actually carried it on is there the slightest chance of bringing the offenders to justice or of separating not the innocent, for there were doubtless hardly any in nnocent, but the "less guilty from those whose guilt was heinous.'
