partment of Justice, who you have reason to believe have been derelict
in their duty in these matters, together with a full statement of the
facts upon which you base your belief in each case. As regards the
officials in your own Department, I should also like a statement as to
the action taken by you in regard to their dereliction.
There is one more question I should like to have answered. In
what you say about the administration of justice it is difficult to be
certain whether you mean that there has been failure on the part of the
Department in Washington or failure merely on the part of local officials.
If you feel that there has been a failure as regards the Department of
Justice in Washington, I should like specifications in reference thereto,
because it seems to me that Mr. Moody should have a chance to answer be-
fore he goes out of office.
Sincerely yours,
Theodore Rooscret
Hon. E. A. Hitchcock,
Secretary of the Interior.
