          WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Senate Judiciary
          Committee on Monday continued to press the FBI on
          Carnivore, the surveillance tool said capable of
          capturing and storing all electronic traffic moving
          through an Internet gateway.

          Committee Chairman Orrin Hatch, a Utah Republican,
          and ranking Democrat Patrick Leahy of Vermont
          asked FBI Director Louis Freeh to spell out
          Carnivore's reach and address concerns that it might
          trample on constitutional rights.

          The system is installed at an Internet service
          provider to keep court-ordered tabs on a criminal
          suspect's e-mail and instant messages.
