Washington! ??ct. 2.?The status o? i the Qrace-Whaley affair is as fol? lows: when the petition charging Congressman Whaley with corruption of the electorate and perjury, and asking an investigation of his right to his seat was referred by Speaker] Clark to Elections Committee No. I? That committee at its first meeting told Mayor Grace that it would have to have something more specific than the mere allegations contained in hie petition before deciding whether or not to recommend an investigation. At the next meeting of the committee the Mayor appeared with H. Leon Larlsey, ll of Charleston, to back up his charges. Hut the committee was still of the opinion that the evidence was Insuf? ficient to form a basis of procedure and gave the mayor until yesterday to produce more testimony. Yester? day Mayor Grace appeared with sev? eral additional witnesses and fled a number of affidavits Tue committee heard the witnesses but did not take time to examine the, aflladvttfl closely and deferred further action until December 1. It is believ? ed that in December the committee! will ask congress to authorize it to make an Investigation on the ground that enough material has been fur-1 nlshed to warrant the expense jf an inquiry. The committee was not very much impressed with some of the testimony given yesterday hut the1 assumption that on this account it 0/111 deeide not to proceed further woul l not be justillcd from the an? swer made by Chairman Post to the questions asked him by The News ami Courier correspondent! who un? derstood from Mr. Post that the pre? vailing sentiment of the committee fSVOrsd an investigation of the (Jrace (barges at the regular session.
