The resolution would call upon the attorney general to furnish the house with all documents, affidavits and tes timony in his possession relating to an affidavit submitted to him more than a year ago, and sworn to by H. J. Douglas, former auditor ot the Alaska syndicate in 1908.

I received a letter of acknowledgment , Mar 31, , 1910, and we had .considerable further corer spondence and on July 13, 1911, more than a year later, I received a letter from the attorney general stating that the statute of limitation had expired."

Mr. Fisher told the committee that the now famous "Dick to Dick" letter was not in the files of the interior department, but if such a letter had disappeared from the files stops would be taken to recover it.

First, whether anytning has been done that the commitee has learned of which will Jeopardize the public interests in Alaska that is, it anything has been done in my de partment which could be rectified now. I want to learn oi inese unngs, because it might be expedient for my department to take some imme diate action. "The second point in which we are Interested concerns a letter, the ex istence ot which, in my department, has been suggested by stories said to have been circulated by a Miss M. F. Abbott. "We have searched the records in the department and have been unable to locate such a letter. We are par ticularly anxious to get all the Infor mation possible about this letter, be cause if any such document has dis appeared we will take steps to re cover it" Secretory Fisher asked that Mies Abbott be placed on the stand as early aa possible.. He told the com mittee tbat his department copies all documents relating to the Controller Bay affair, to carry out the provisions of Senator Polndexter's , resolution, which, calls tor these papers to be presented to the senate.
