WiMi'M-ios , 1) . C. , Nov. 111. The Post
todav published an urticlo lo the effect that
Ivan Peiro.T , a special agent of the Slate de
partment , nnd formerly in a consulate do-
parlmet.i. has baen detected In the net of
furnishing fulso information to this govorn-
mcnl In relation lo tbo seal Industry of
Aluskn , which has btca embodied In the
prnparation ol tbo Bering sea case for arbi
tration
Continuing , tbo article says : "When the
Klalodeparlinont began the lasksome moiilhs
ago ot preparing Iho Bering sua case lorarbi-
iratlon , It became ncccssarv lo sccuro the
assistance ot nil exports ou Alaskan nnd seal
ing questions. In Investigating thn llteraluro
on Vho resources of Alaska , the department
encountered the name ot Ivan Pen-off moro
frequently than that of any other author ,
und , upon Inquiry for him being instituted ,
ho was fo.ind to bo u special agent ot iho
census bureau ,
-It was tdso learned that ho had taken the
census of Alaska for thn United States gov-
crnmont in ly ) and IS'JJ ' nnd written iho
monograph Issued nv the bureau of stntislles
ol Ihe Treasury department on Alaska. In
nddtllon to this ho had also assisted Hubert
Ilowo Hancrjft in the preparation of the
Ifttlcr't. History of tbo torrllorv. It was
quite evldnnt to the State department , there
fore , that this hitherto trusted ofllcial would
bent valuable assistance In the preparation
of tlto Boring sea case.
Dlicovrri'il in I'raml.
"Mr. Peiroff wus thereupon summoned
from the census bureau to the State di'pirt-
mcnt , and ho wus entrusted , wilt iho exami
nation Into and tbo compilation ot ccrlulu
facts relating to the scaling industry. It
was not necessary for him to visit Alaska ,
nnd his work was done In this cily. Somn
llmo after It had been submitted to tbo uo-
partment ono of the government's special
nttornovs , while examining the data , discov-
cicil an error. Closer investigation showed
Ihnl nearly the untiro Information furnished
by Potrolf hud boon falsified , nnd in a man
ner which loft no doubt of falsification , with
wilful Intent to deceive.
"Tl.ls dlscnvciy astounded tbo State de
partment oftlrlulM. The Information bad
already been Incorporated In tuo cato of the
government as sent to Loiidon and formed n
part of the oxp.-rt opinion , although it wus
not the keystone by any means. ' 1 bn British
government wus tit once nntllicd Unit , tbo
United States had been led Into errors of
stbtnincnts und was informed thiit u correc
tion would bo made when ibo couninr case ,
ns the .supplementary papers are termed , was
Mlhinlttcd.
"Tho discovery has crealed considerable
oxcltoment In ofllcial circles. The superin
tendent ot the census has boon In conference
with the prcsldoni , the secretary of state
mid secretary uf the interior regarding bis
faithless omployi * . The question has natur
ally arisen , If Potroff's work has been fulsl-
llcil 111 cue instnncc , uro not his census lig-
urcs also unreliable !
"This Is an inquiry that can only ho an
swered niter lodlous and perhaps uxnsuslve
Investigation , furiously enough , the'rois no
law upon the statute ocoks to meet such a
cnso us this , and Mr. Pctroif will simply lese

that ho never again re-enter ofllciul life.

"Pelroll' is n Itusslan by birth , who moved
to Alaska when Unit country was n Russian
province , and ho lived there forty years. Ho
is now ( I'J ' years of age. Ho has been an ad

held his order , prohibiting tbo usa of the
squaio azalnst the masies , which made u
concerted olTcrt lo break Ihrouch Ibo lines
of pollco nnd soldlory. The weather In the
afternoon was less favorable. Tha sky b3-
came clouded a.id throntoiiod rain. Nothing
daunted , the legions of unemployed , of so
cialists aud other sympathizer. * , mircbod in
bodies lo Iho siinaro , moil of Lhum coming
from the east and southeast.
A band wa statloned there , which greeted
the arriving processions , the llrat three of
which were social-democratic bodies. They
carried red banners and wcroled by a number
Qt girls waving rod Hags. They tooK up a posi
tion at the base of tbo Nelson column , auout
three t aides of which platforms were con-
slructod. Thu balustraded front of Iho gal
lery provided another moans of accommoda
tion for the crowd.

The baunurs bore Inscriptions such as
"Workers of the world unlto aud sow tno

Another which was greeted everywhere
with cheers was inscribed : Tukun by

spread about Nelsou's monument , forming a
bright background to the dune masses sur
rounding the speakers. Tbo windows und

worn crowded wilh spactatori.
There was a notlojablo absence of police
within iho square , but hundreds on fool und
numbers of mounted men were stationed
buclc of the National gallery ami at other con
venient spots out of sight. Detachments of
three or four xvera placed every tbrcu or four
yards at the approaches to tho.quuro , whllo
un ambulance corns with stiotcners
and otlior paraphernalia , was on hand
ready for service. Scotland Yard ,
too. was roadv for an emergency.
The square was filled with a vast con
course ot people byi : ; yo. It was an emin
ently orderly crowd , however. Ordinary
trafilu was lltlla impeded. A majority ot thu
procession were well dressed working men.

was louilly cheersd. Ho moved the resolu

ful assembly of today. Ho said tb.it thirty

this unfortunate condition to previous over

advocated the establishment of labor bu
reaus , llo expressed regret that the over-
worltod employe * , instead of the railroad di
rectors , had been uillml In tbo collision nt

Cony Bearo , who spoka from-tbo balustrade
of th National gallery , urged his hearers to
cotnpol the respectful control of the police.
Ho deprecated talk nbout the use of

as were hoard at Tower Hill were n disgrace
und came chlclly from the lips of foreign
