Special Committee Digs

LENGTH OF SEWER FIXED
Experts 'Prove City Engineer

MORE PAID FOR THAN BUILT
Night Foreman Thomas Tells Story
. of Receiving Sums of Money
From Others Than His
Regular Employers.
XEPOKTED XO'GTH COBKECT.
R. S. Greenleaf and J. H. Cunning
ham showed to the satisfaction of the
committee that the report of the exam
iners is correct in giving the length of
the new sewer as 1145 feet. Instead of
1175 feet, the specified length- The
engineers successfully disputed the testi
mony of Assistant City Engineer Scog
gln as to the point from which the meas
urement began. Maps were produced,
and the committee decided that the ex
amining engineers were In the right.
,The length of repair work accepted by
the city is 618 feet whereas the exam
iners showed It to be 650 feet. The
difference Is that the new sewer Is billed
at $20 per foot, while the repair work
was to cost $4 per foot. According to
the bills the city or the property-owners
would have paid $480 for new eswer
which does not exist.
Dally the Tanner Creek sewer scandal
.grows deeper. The Investigation commit
tee of the Council Is following a very
tangled thread, and they have struck sev
eral knots. The only two undisputed facts
that remain are that the sewer was built
In a flimsy way and that the City En
gineer's department accepted the job. The
" committee is now trying to get at the why
and wherefore.
That outside parties paid the workmen
on the sewer to do faulty work purposely
was the sensational evidence brought out
at the open meeting of the commltee yes
terday afternoon.
But the testimony was given In such a
manner that It left many doubts In the
minds of those who heard it. It Is doubt
ful If the committee can formulate a re
port in time to present to the special
Council meeting this afternoon, lor the
stenographer said 15 hours would be re
quired to transcribe the mass of testimony
taken.
Night Foreman's Strange Tale.
For over ah hour yesterday the commit
tee heard the testimony of George Thom
as, the night foreman on the sewer. It
was a strange and marvelous tale that ne
told, and mote insight Into the methods
of contractors "was unexpectedly obtained.
After a few preliminaries Thomas was
asked by Chairman Zimmerman if he had
ever received any money while on the
sewer except from his regular employers.
Rlner & RInsr.
"I'll tell you the whole thing, gentle
men." said Thomas. Then aided by re
peated questions he told this story:
"One night when I quit work a man
met me on "Washington street and asked
me if money was any object to me. I said
that -was what I was working for. He
said that his party had been jobbed on
the contract and he wanted to tlx It so
that the contractors. Rlner & RIner,
wouia nave irouDie." Tnis man was
about 50 years old, Thomas thought, but
as to personal description he mas very
vague.
"A few nights after this a man came
to my house and gave me $50," continued
Thomas, after many close questions.
"This man wore glasses. Another time I
was given between $15 and $20."
"Did you and this man have any agree
ment as to what you should do for this
money?" asked Mr. Albee.
Left Sewer Without Bottom.
"No, I nei'er told him or the others who
gave me the money what I would do, but
I understood that an investigation was to
be made and these places would be found.
I left the job before it was finished and I
left the place under the manhole at Six
teenth and Alder streets without any bot
tom. The water was running over and It
was hidden."
"How about the bricks being without
mortar?" asked Chairman Zimmerman.
"To the best of my knowledge the
bricks were laid all right except in one or
two places. I understood that the more
cement was used the more the contractors
would get."
This was a little bombshell of its own.
Thomas further stated that two la
borers had intimated to him that they
were being paid for reports furnished
somebody as to the construction of the
sewer. The next morning they had ap
peared under the Influence of liquor
and he had discharged them.
'1 told them as they were getting
paid by so many people they had better
get off," said Thomas.
"You didn't think the same for your
self, though you had somebody else's
money in your pocket at the time."
suggested R. "W. Montague, -who was
leading the witness along devious paths
just then.
"Oh. I didn't have the money in my
pocket: Td left it at home," answered
Thomas. This Is a sample of the dia
logue between the witness and hla
questioners.
Thomas a Puzzling Witness.
Ono strange circumstance -was that
Thomas, after he left Rlncr's employ
ment, should have gone to work for
the City Engineer's department, as he
testified that he had been In McLeod's
bridge gang until the last few days.
Altogether Thomas was a puzzling wit
ness, and never more so than when he
was asked why he was willing to act as
a witness. When he read that the
blame was to be laid upon Inspector
Caywood, he said he had gone to Cay
wood and offered to help him out, but
at the same time he wanted to "do the
right thing by Riner, as he had treated
me square."
Chairman Zimmerman interrupted
Mr. Montague's questions "by saying
that Thomas had applied for a Job with
the Lucky Boy Mining Company, and
had told Mr. Zimmerman's former part
ner that he knew something about the
sewer.
W. B. Ayer. one of the property-owners.
Mayor "Williams and City Attorney
McNary frequently questioned the wit
ness. Messrs. Albee and Sigler. the
otKer two members of the committee,
were also curious.
As to' the Quantity of cement used a
wide discrepancy exists between the
report filed by Inspector Caywood and
the amount thus far accounted for as
purchased by the Rlners. .The com
mittee fs looking for 116 barrels.
J. H. Cunningham told the committee
how the examination by the four ex
perts was made, going Into hundreds of
technical details.
R. S. Greenleaf. another of the ex
perts, told how the examiners had re
ceived a number of letters, mostly an
onymous, telling the condition of the
sewer, and in many Instances the exact
locations of the defects found. These
were generally received after the flaws
had been discovered, however.
Placing the Blame.
As to the tenor of the report soon to
be drawn Up, It seems impossible that
the blame can be shifted from the City
Engineer's department. How much in
fluence City Engineer Elliott's answer
to the examiner's report in which he
lays practically all the odium upon In
spector Caywood will have with the
committee it Is impossible to say in ad
vance. The fact that he had personally
recommended the sewer for acceptance
will have much weight.

MISS M'GEE'S MANY "WOES.
Street Preacher Says Neighbors Stone
Herself and Her Chickens.
"Are the neighbors of Miss Martha Mc
Gee. a street preacher, who lives on
Cable street, below .Portland Heights, en
gaged in persecuting her?"
This Is a question which is under serious
consideration by County Judge Webster.
The neighbors have several times com
plained to the County Court that she Is
Insane, but the Judge and physicians.
upon examination, do not find that she is
demented or dangerous to be at large.
Miss McGee, who is well along in years,
says the neighbors and their children
throw stones at her, chase her chickens.
and have torn down her fence. The court
has accumulated evidence which leads to
the belief that the woman Is more sinned
against than sinning, and that her neigh
bors want to get rid of her. Judge Web
ster thinks, if they would treat her kindly
and look upon her with a Christian spirit.
the trouble would cease. The matter will
probably be referred to Chief of Police
Hunt for investigation.
