Graham, assistant attorney general In
the cabinet of the president of the I'nlted
Ftatea, is In the city today and with
IMstrlct Attorney T. 8. Allen, visited te
office of the governor.
It ia said that the attorney general Is
anxious to "t aome information regard
Inn certain candidates for the appoint
ment to the federal Judgeship vacancy
and has aent hla political manager out
here to look the situation over. The fact
that he la being: piloted around by Mr.
Bryan's brother-in-law, Mr. Allen. Indi
cates that the Investigation will not be
exactly nonpartisan, but more properly
speaking nonfactlonal from a democratic
standpoint, which, of course, is highly
pleasing to the friends of Senator Hitch
cock. Coffey Hears Complaint.
Labor Commissioner Coffey haa re
ceived a letter from a correspondent In
Omaha, calling hla attention to the acts
of certain reference companies, which are
supposed to do a business of getting Jobs
for people out of work.
The communication recites that the com
panies charge the applicant from fl to $2
for making the application and collect 28
per cent of the first month's salary if
the applicant lands the position. They
claim that In many Instances many appli
cants are sent after the same Job an 8
that If they fail to land no money Is re
turned, though the company must' know
that the Job has been already filled or
tho applicant net of the required caliber.
Matter Now la Court.
Commissioner Coffey has been dealing
with this same proposition for some time
and was In Omaha this week at a hear
ing, wherein some of these companies
had sought to restrain the governor, labor
commissioner and county attorney from
Interfering. The case waa tried before
Uudge Redlck, but haa been taken under
advisement.
In some Instances Mr. Coffey says that
applicants are charged all the traffic
will bear, sometimes running up as high,
aa 8 for registering, and then are sent
out of the city so far they have not
money sufficient to return after paying
railroad fare.
