WASHINGTON.
October 23, 1906.
My dear Mr. Secretary:
I enclose you herewith a report signed by the
members of the Keep committee which have been in-
vestigating the workings of your Department. It
certainly shows a very unsstisfactory condition in
the Department and the need of radical changes in
the organization and in the way in which it is handled.
I am convinced that it is this very defective organi-
zation of the Department which rendered it necessary
for me to write the letters of October 10, 1905, and
of March 26, 1906, copies of which I enclose. I
never received any answer to either of these letters.
I suppose that it was thi S same defective organization
which was responsible for the action which caused me
to write you my letter of June 22d, copy of which I en-
close, which was also left unenswered.
