But If. aa alleged, the money was for services rendered in pressing Indian claims at arhlngton. there Is no record. according to the officials, of services per formed. Great surprise was expressed this morn ing by Charles H. Robh. Acting Attorney Oeneral. that the contents of the report UKn Burton's Chickasaw transactions tdiould havo reached the public. He made no denial of the accuracv of the state ments mane concerning the report. But hu declared that tho charges could not be dlrcus-d officially at this time.
