At Chicago:
Was called on the long distance telephone this morn-
ing by the New York office, in accordance with e-
graphic request of last night. I talked win Qi
and told him how important it was that the rec () 8
cable companies sho e examined, and suggested to Ur.
Offley, thresh ai, that forthwith grand jury Bub-
Poenas be issued cable officials to produce all
cablograms passing from the Chicago Examiner,or allied "
interests, to the London or Paris correspondent of said . 8
| paper, whose names I gave him. He stated that he would a,
- take ay aggestion up immediately with United States Afton, es
‘ney Marshal], and would let me know at once should anything ;
re) ortance develop, and I informed Asst. U. 8. Attorney
_ Stansbury to this effect.
In the afternoon the New York offiges ‘again called me
on the long distance and stated that the records of the Con-
‘meroial Cable Company had been examined and under date of .
January 24th was found a cablegram from Lendon, addressed
to "Ihe Journal", Kew York, to be transmitted to Chicago,
reading as follows;

The last he knew of him was when he had fled
through Canada. Johnson knows nothing of his

This telephone Message was, at my request, confirmed by
telegraph, so that I could produce the message before the
Grand Jury, if desired.
In accordance with instructions received from the
Chief, I conferred with Mr. DeWoody. concerning his ac-
counts, which last week the Crand Sary desired me to pro-
duce. Wr. DeWoody had no ovjection whatsoever to having
Same examined by the jurors, and J then conferred with ur.
Stansbury. :He told me that the Grand Jury was entirely
