I said to Johnson. "No they can't get you Into trouble," he said. "But how about them putting you on oath," I asked. Oh, that's all right. I can swear to anything I want to on a stack of Bibles four feet high," Johnson said to me. The foregoing is a bit of testimony Introduced at the hearing of C. G. Murphy, seeking for reinstatement as head meterman of the city water de partment, before the civil service commission yesterday afternoon. The conversation was related by J. Myers, laborer under Murphy, showing that at least two men in the department knew that the custom of selling "junk," the charge upon which Murphy is un der suspension, was not considered the most ethical performance in tne world. Murphy s case, ana it enaea yester day, to be taken under advisement for several days, .hinged upon the custom of selling old lead and brass fittings picked up from water ae- partmant repairs. Mayor Is Attacked. He attacked Mayor Rushlight, de claring that he maliciously kept him from a mechanics Job In isut. ana tried to make out a case of personal animosity In the matter, but the de fense rested chiefly upon the prece dent established in years gone by that the' sale of defective and old water pipe fixtures was legitimate. Myers' testimony, outside of the charges made by Mayor Rushlight that Murphy .paid too much attention to running back and forth to a saloon and not enough to his duty, with the "untruth retort and the further come back that D. D. Patterson, one of Rushlight's henchmen, promised to protect Murphy's job if the meterman would vote for "Al. was tne "piece ae reslstence" of the tiresome day's testimony. ' Mvers told of frequent talks with L. Johnson, another workman under Murphy and a testifying supporter or the suspended man, n which DOtn spoke of the danger of detection for selling the lead and brass. Tne "junK was split up on a number of occasions, and sales made to scattering junk shops so that too much would not be at one place, and for a time. aCter some of the Btuff had been discovered following the- report of theft at other places, no effort was made to sea until the affair "blew over." System to Be Chnnsed. Murphy was suspended not long ago for his part in the matter, re instated on a technicality and again suspended after more specific charges had been filed. He sold the material, arguing that It belonged to the prop erty owners who cared nothing for It, and split the proceeds with the men under him. - "I have had experts making an In vestigation of the matter and I have a report saying that 39,000 pounds of lead has disappeared in the last year," said Mayor Rushlight. "The entire system Is too lax and we will have another one working soon,- so such things cannot possibly happen." MARTIN-GANZ CONCERT. Opens the Season at the Hellig Wednesday, October 2. The Lois Steers-Wynn Coman twelfth series of concerts will open with a rare combination Riccardo Martin, the ten or from the Metropolitan, and Rudolph Ganz, the pianist. Riccardo Martin, a name which spells success' and means much in the concert and operatic fields today, is one of the leading tenors of the Metropolitan Opera Company, of New York, and of the Royal Opera, of Covent Garden. London. Mr. Martin has gone far in his chosen line of work, so far. Indeed, that none disputes to him the possession of great natural gifts, fostered and cultivated until he has reached a posi tion of supreme artistry. Mr. Ganz is one of the most eminent pianists of the day and as an inter preter of Liszt is unsurpassed. So re nowned has the Swiss pianist become that last season he was forced to crowd into the limited space of three months as many concerts as other artists take seven months to accomplish. The de mand for Ganz was so great last year that he win make a more prolongeS visit to America the coming season In The Woman and Her Bank This bank pays spe cial attention to the accounts of women depositors.
