Le the Editor of The Chicago Tribune: Cicaco, May 8.—The position which affairs atthe new Government Building have assamed is now one of great interest, not cnly to the gen- eral public,—the tax-payers of Chicago, who have lived for three years in the hope that some share of what they contribute to the National tax-gatherers would here take a substantial form, —but to the erchitectural profession especially. Your comments on the recent “investigation” have attrocted widespread attention, and havo evidently boon msde with a view to ferret out the troth in this architectural puzzle. If your reports have drawn erroneous conclusions, they are pardonable, and are only the results of a want of full information, which has been sparing!y given by Government officials. You ‘ill thersfore, perhaps, allow mo to affor some further information bearing on the sub- ject, which has come to me in the course of my professional experience in this city during the past three years, and to volunteer some sugges- tions for what they may be worth. : I desire to say at the commencement that it is ter from my purpose either to defend or accusa any one connected with;the building,‘and though personally acquainted with the Jato Suvervising Architect and the present ove, aa well as the Yate Superintendent and other officials con- nected with the puilaing, I have not conversed with eithor of them for many months, WHEN IEE BUILDING WAS ORIGINALLY DESIG: under Mallett’s direction at Washington, the @rawings were made for very massive founda- tions under all tho walls and piers, which wore roportioned to the weights to be carried. The Bottom course was to havo been of concrete, I Delicve 3 feet in thickness, on which were to have been footing-stones, gradually until the thickness of walls was reached. These founda- tions were the same as are usually employed un- der heavy buildings in this city, built upon tho clay plaieau which underlies the greater part of this city at a depth of about 13 rest below the established le of curbsetones in the down- town streets, and which is also found on the site of the Uorernment building. The only differ- ence is that concrete is rot extensively axed here, though it has been, with the best resulta, under afew buildings, where the footings are xequired to ba so wide asto make it difficult to handle lerge stones. Before these foundations were decided upon, Mr. Rankin bad caused extensive borings to be made in at least twelve plecos on the site, with a view tu determining the nature of the substrata for s great distance bolow the ‘surface. When consulsing with Mr. H. H. Bichardson, of New ‘York, in relation to the reconstruction of some of the foundations under the American Express Baildiog, which is located only ove square dis- tant from the Government building, Mr. Rankin Kindly furnished us a copy of this survey, and it wasthus that I became intimately scquainted ‘With the facts in relation to these foundations. ‘THE SURVEY SHOWED part of theoity. It is harder on at a lower depth, and isatrewn with a pave- ment of bowiders, pebbles, and shella. Ae I Speak only from recollection, I will say that this stratum of clay, generally called bine clay by our builders and erchitects, but named ‘‘Craw- fish” clay by Mr. Rankin, has an average thick- mea tes Sree ree clay to a de: ©: feo! low Y pothape 20 feet thick, though not the top like the Crawfish clay.

Tho foundations ef most of the dwellings on these streets were boilt on this, and notably the original Second Presbyterian Church. This surface beach send has always proved to bas reliable bod for foundations. But we have noth- ing to do with the two lest-mentioned strats in this discussion. ‘To return then. ri THD UPPER STRATUM of clay was determined to be sufficient for the foundations of the new building in accordance with the best experience of Chicago architects, notwithstanding the fect of the undorlsing stratum of xoft wet clay flied with vegetable matter which intervened between this and the bine or “tunnel” clay. When the plans wero nisie for the foundations in the manner that I have mentioned above, they were on such an extensive scale, so broad and mas- sive, thst the square interstices thus left were so small compared with the whole surface as to be comparatively insignificant. It was esti- mated that it weuld be no more expensive to Tun the concrete over tas whole site. The natural wetness of the site was aucthor strong argument in favor of thie course, as by covering the whole ground a groat trouble would be avoided, and it would be necessary to pump out tha rain-water during the progrose of tho building. It was necordingly concluded to rer tho conérele 3 feo: in thickness over the whole lot. is has Leon dono, and on thia plateau dobailding now standa But the momont this plan was carried out THE CONORETE CK¢SED TO BE A FOUNDATION, properly speaking. It becamo an artificial plateau by itseif, and the foundation proper commenced on top of it. And it is.just so much better than what was thare bofore ia proportion a it isso much Larder. On this tho ecientitio constructor would commence his building just as ha would on hard clay or sand bottom. ‘Whether such is tho case or not I am not suf- ficiently soquainted with the building m detail to say. But it is perfoctly clear that a building of great weizht can be erected an such s bottom. Even supposing that thera isa vory soft mate- rial 15 or 20 feet below it, provided that the sur- faces of the footings in detail are exactly pro- Porconed to the weight they are to carry,—so many toos to the foot everywhere, and exactly the same proportion in all parts. A building thus construcied may go on settling, but it will go altogether. it is a stubborn fact that if the ground is soft, and &n unresisting soil caunot bo reached ly any practicablo means, the structure must go down. If tho contractor knows bis business ho must catry out the fundamental principle in building foundations, proportion the weight to the resistance, and bo dons ell that human knowlodge can devise, and ali thatis worth do- ing under tho circumstances, . the pregent caso tuo borings showed that the sito wes practically an even one, that is; there aro no hard places to « licate the. prab- Jem. The ground must evenly if weights are equal. This may be possible with the buildiug as designed or it may not, Much depends upon whethor or not it is practicable to increase or diminish the weights to suit the present footings. If this ceunot ba done with- out chaxging the dosign, then the design must be changed. It is possible that porticoes or colonnedes which do not carry walls may have to bo omitted, or if possible “eat loose from the main building. But todo so would bo to make ® vory insignificant change compared with what it is proposed to do. The “ wice men from tho East" who were seat hero to examiue the building drove pilos to see Waat tho bottom was! ‘he archives of the office of the Supervising Architect would have shown them that the whole scrface had been bored, and would have givon them 2s a reault soctions of the ground 59 feet deep. Still they drove pues with 2 2,000-pound rammer, and becauso their piiea did not roach tho blue tunnel clay I suppose they went off with s report, “no bottom here.” Our City Bugineor could havo told them’ that they could drive piles anywhere under oor heaviest buildings, which stand firmly and s0- curely, and still could not touch bottom i= less than 50 fect. ‘DID THEY EXAMINE FQ CONCRETE ? ‘When it waa put dowm it was subjected to oxtraordinary tests. I bad the privilege of learning the resulte of ali these experiments as to the composition and method of making the cement, and I know of no man more competent for this work than Philo Warner, the late fore- masn of masons, This experience was valuable toms, andlamindebted to Mr. Rankio’s in- vestigations for many valueble suggestions. I would not allude to this except to add by way of Mustration that in reconstructing the founda- tions under the American Express Building I followed the method of making concrete at the Government building, and have.put it tothe severest practicable test. I will give the statia- tics of the largest pier of tho front wall, by way of illustration. This pier has an average hoight of 118 feet, and the wall is 234 feet thick on sn average. Tho weight of tho pies by computa- tion, is 216 tons, and gizs of the concrete foundation is §& by 33 feet, giving a surface of 104 fost, with a woight of very nearly 2 tons per superficial foot. This foundation rests ua the same stratum of clay as that of the Government building, end is used fora wall in connection with walla already built. Tho settlement has not excecded balf an inch. I conider this clay capablo to carry a tous tothe square foot, with which weigbt 1 settloment would be aboutlinch. In an iso- insted building it is not s difficult matter to pro- vide for & settlement of 1 inch. You naturally ask, What ia to be done when they haya tora down the building? And I offer these suggestions with a hopo that the facts Beroin given may throw somo of the light of ex- perience upon 8 solationof the question. £ might sdduce farther and {fnller illustra- tim of the nature of our soil, md the methods that have been devised to overcome the difficulties connocted with building on it, in which I think Iwould be sastained by most of our abiest srchitects in this specialty. Through tho courtesy of those heretofore connected with the building, I have had unusual opportunities for watching the pro- greas of the work in its estlier stages, acd can testify to its excollenco so far as the masons’ work is concerned. It looks very much asf the building had been injured by frost, aud if this is the css it will be at least a month yet before the facta can be xscertained. It is clear enough without computation to sny one who under- stends the nature of our soil that there has not beon weight enough on any of the foundations to seriously affect them as to settlement, and this can easily bo demonstrated, if neces- sary. Still there 1s overy reason that such an important stractare should not be allowed te proceed without a thorough investigation by those who are competent to mako it, and the question is not so much, “Do tho foundstions now show weakness?” but ‘Are they of sucha character as to sustain that which it io proposed to placo on them?” and if not “ What dispo- sitions should bo made in the superatruction to mako the wholo etrong, sound, and iasting?” Bespectfally yours, P.

After it was all over, Miller wos queationed by a fel- low-prisoner a8 to the cause of his extraordi- nary grief, and the reply was: “Stubbs told metocry like ason of a gun, and the Indgo would be light on me, sndidid.” Mx, Stubbs is avidontly a great man. eae een An Intelligent Doge fi ABartford expressman pcssesses a remark~ ably intolligent doz.

Arguments on the Motion fr a New Trial, Judge HcRoberts Suggests that tho Plaintiff Accept $15,000, ‘This Is Agreed to, and the New Trial Refased, . Tho. motion for s nerr, trial in the oage of Alice A. Rarly ve. Wilbar F. Storey, proprietor of the Times, camo up before Judge MeRoberts yesterday morning. Mr. Goudy, forthe defend- ‘ant, first read the grounds on which he based his motion, which aro in brief as follows : A Taat the Court erred in refusing to admit evi- ‘ence in bebalf of the defendant by declining to admit the letrers received by the defendant dotailing the facts in the publication complained of, and in refusing to admit the retraction. Also, that the Court erred in refusing to admit evidence tending to show the efforts made by the dofendsnt to ascortain the truth of the facta, stated in the publication, or in allowing the de- fendant to show the courses of-his-busincas or the custom of newspapers in publication, Tho Coart also erred in giving eartain instructions, refusing othera, and in subsequently calling the jury in and giving them oral instructions after they had left the box. Lastly, the yordict was excessive in amount. Mr. Goudy then read two adidavits to the effoct thet the jury hed roturnod into court in the absence of cousol, and received from the Judge oral instructions without the eongent of the defendant or his counsel. wR. GOUDY then exsid thot there wore only two points on which he wished to expatiate; the point as to the oxclusion of the letters. If they had been admitted they would have shown mitigating cir cumstances in that the defendant hed been mis- led by others, and when be discovered the fact he attempted to make amends. In tho pregout cage also no evideuce had beon given of cny n0- ttal damage having been sustained, and the vor- dict .was, therefore, entirely punitive in its character. The second point wus in regard to the amount of tho damages, which were oxces- sive. No verdict of that eize had hardly ever been given. Tho counsel then/cited sevoral cages of malicious prosecution, , which he held wore in principle the same, where damages for over $10,000 had been eet aside, ‘Che criminal punishment for the publi- cation of 3 libel wasafine of $500 and six month’s imprisonment, or either, Mr. Goudy thonght sho amount of the fino was somo indica tiono? the figure at which vindictive damages could be rated. 2, SALT followed on behalf of the plaintiff. He thought tho damagos were oxceptioually high, but that the cae was unoxceptionably exasperating, aud that, under all the circumstances, the verdics wea not excessive. ‘Tho Court bad rightly refnsed to allow tho introduction of the lotters, because they would tend to throw the responsibility off from Mr. Storey on nome ir- responsible person. The question of damages wes the only serious one. ‘The jury certainly was not Jed away by prejudice or passion, as ‘the opening address to the jury was one of the worst ever made. He fol justified in saying that, foro wad not slandering anybody. Tho dofeadant knew of tha letters vefore the article was pnblishod, and yet, without more than ia- forming himself of their character, pazsed them over to ® subordinate, Mr. Storey was only too anxious to sy the filth before his readers—filth that, by the testimony of tho basiness maneger of the ‘Times, had inert its circnlation from 27,000 to 42,00). The de- fondant hed not received the letters from his regular correspondent, but from a stranger, and, thengh he might easily by telogram have ascor tained the truth af the matter, ho noglected to do so, but treated tha plaintiff os though she were a Fourth avenue cyprian. Mr. Storey was worth $250,000 besides the good wiil bis paper. He had published the article. in all the editions, making a circulation of about 44,500, and the verdict orty charged 50 conte for each publication of the bel. “Some ono had suggested to him that he was infiuenced by the faot that ne and the parties libeled were of dif- ferent pobtical parties, but that ides never en- tored the defandant’s head, bot the publication was through pure devilishness, pure malice, and pure cussedness. 36D. SIDSEY soTTH followed in ovo of hie characteristie arguments and an unusust amount of sarcasm. He thought no punishmous could be woo. great for such an aggravated aesenlt om charactor. It was a gross violation of the rights of journalism, and an editor who was guilty of sach conduct should bo severely deait Moa ite teeers, ah ot ot ing adapted to mitigate damages, would rather tond to inaresna them, for they were igoed by fictitious names, and came from strangers. Myr. Goudy then anow drew attention to some cages in which the Court hod set aside exceasive damages. JUDGE M’ROBEETS then ina lengthy aud rambling decision reasons for cranting anew trial. Ho had refused to allow the two lettera to ba resdin evidence because the plaintiff was entitled to ail the lotters or none. Mr, Storey had failed to produce the other two, or account for their disappearance, and could not there- fore avail himself of the two ho offered. It was evident that the defendant had been imposed, on, but be had not taken sofficient cara in first ascortaining the truth of the letters before pub- lishing an ebstract of them, Tne ratraction also hed been ruled out beosuse made after suit brought, snd becauge it only purported to be a telegram from Rockford and not an editorial with the sanction and name of tho editor. Bat tho verdict waa fora very large amount, To be sure, $50,000 would not recompense the plaintiff, nor would any amount of money. He would heve becn disposed to allow the verdict to stand bad xt boen $15,000, and that amount would have been a sufficient puniahmont, and accomplished all ends except taking monoy ont of the defendant's pooket. The dofond- ant was disposed to make roparation, and had offered the columns of his paper for that purpose. Besides, the plaintiff ‘wes not prosecuting tho enit for mercenary pur- poses. He should, therefore, in view of all the cirenmstances, ask the plaintif’s counsel to remit $10,000 of the verdict or he would grant a pew trial. ‘ Yr. Small remarked that tho Supreme Court had intimated that it was not proper to remit in euch a case, buton being told that the Supremo Court had refused to reyorsa a caso en that ground he held a private conenitation with Mr. Smith and Mr. Early, In afew moments they returned, and Mr. Small said that, after consultation with bis sasociate and the father of the plaintiff, he was of tho opinion that the circumstances of tho case were of such a fixgrant character as to justify a ver- ave his & id be dict for $25,090. At tho samo time, he was desirous to void protracted — liti- gation, or the imputation of being actuated by merconary motives, and thererore he was disposed to assent to the suggestions of the Court, that judgement should be entered for $15,000, This waa immediately dono. Mr. Goudy shen took an oxcoption and. an appeal, and the appeal bond was fixed at 915,500, the amount of the judgement, aed snfficiont to covar the costs, - 5 An [tphigenian Grisotic.
