In the House a privileged question by Mr Butterworth of Ohio led to a resolution creating a five member committee to investigate a forged ballot box contract. The document linked multiple congressmen to alleged corruption over ballot boxes and sought testimony, papers, and oaths as part of the inquiry. The committee would identify authors of the contract and any improper ties to the ballot box matter.
