Asked Vick to Watch Sullivan.

"The White House is a great clearing j

house for rumors," said Mr. Tumulty, I

"and when these charges began to come

in about Mr. Sullivan I heard about the

Jarvis interests and the Banco Nacional. j

I asked Mr. Vick to watch Mr. Sullivan j

closely and keep the White House ad-

vised. I also told him to warn Minister

Sullivan that the President would be displeased

if he heard of Sullivan growing

too close to any interests, and would take j

such action ai became necessary."

He was inclined to be suspicious of all

charges from the Dominican Republic,^

because Mr. Vick had told him, in relation

to accusations against the latter, that

the "atmosphere there was charged with j

recrimination and throat-cutting."

Denies "Whitewashing" Story.

Mr. Tumulty denied that the White

House had ever exonerated or "white-

washed" Minister Sullivan. He said that I

J. Franklin Fort, who had headed a commission

to settle a Dominican revolution.

had told the President that Sullivan was

a "big-hearted Irishman." and that there

was nothing against him." He declined j

to express any opinion no iu omu vau o

fitness for office, but criticised Vick as a

"sorehead."

Counsel C. H. Strong:, for the commissioner,

put into the record a letter

from Mr. Tumulty in which he said

that Samuel D. Wilson of Philadelphia

had telephoned the White House, saying

he had information which "seriously

reflected on Minister Sullivan," but

that as "a friend of the administration"

he did not wish to testify without first
