to the "lawlessness in Baltimore," be referred to a committee
to be composed of one delegate from each county and the city
of Baltimore, and that the Chairman of said committee shall,
on the application of any three members, summon such wit-
nesses and send for such papers as they may deem necessary,
to a full and fair investigation of the subject.
