White House Gives Probers E-Mail

The White House yielded yesterday to a sharply worded
congressional protest and produced a thick stack of e-mail
correspondence dealing with former White House intern Monica S.
Lewinsky along with several documents President Clinton's lawyers
originally contended might be privileged.

Facing a third round of hearings on subpoenaed e-mail that the
White House says was lost because of computer glitches, White
House counsel Beth Nolan said she wanted to make it clear that
"the White House is fully cooperating" with the House Government
Reform Committee's investigation.

The inquiry has already churned up a variety of records,
including one showing that a large volume of e-mail for White
House aide Sidney Blumenthal was deleted from his personal
computer in December 1998 at the height of the impeachment
crisis. According to a Jan. 6, 1999, memo by White House computer
specialist Daniel "Tony" Barry, a copy of which was obtained by
The Washington Post, White House officials were talking about
deleting the messages to Blumenthal from their automated,
permanent archives as well. No reason was mentioned, nor was the
final decision.

Blumenthal, an aggressive defender of the president, declined to
comment. White House spokesman Jim Kennedy said he was trying to
determine who might have wanted the e-mails deleted from the
permanent archives and why, but he said he had no reason to think
it was Blumenthal. As for the deletions from Blumenthal's
personal computer, Kennedy said White House aides are encouraged
to regularly do that.
