The resoiutlon was to stop any such loose way of dolng buainess in futare elthor by Bowen or any other pereon. At the time of the Introduction wit- nees knew nothing of the disputed $72,000 account between tho Doard snd the American Exchange Tiank. Witnessloart of thls account in October, 18753, and did not communicate it tohis brother Commissloners or any one of them antll the fol- lowing summer, .Lla consulled the attorncys of the Doard aa to what heshonld do, and they In- stracted him (o go to work and ascertain sll the Iacts, If porsibie, before biazoning out the matter to the world, Ile conld not say that the attorneys advised him not to Inform the entire Park Doard of the facte. Georve W. Gage was conversant with the facts, Witnesa was Anditor from Nov,, 1875, to March, 1870, when Cornell took hold, end held the positian until March, 1877, Ie had no actusl knowledgo ss to whether Cornell, as Aunditor, noticed the account on the books, nor did he know how the other Commissioners first learnt af the nccount. Mr. Truesdell asked whether the witness knaw of the Ihillips contract at the time it wan made, WiL. ness replicd in the negativei his firat knowleds wanx, if he rememoered aright. derivedshortly after the fire, Could fix no actaal date, and thought that 110 ofticial record of actlon fu relation to 5L would be found on the books of lhe Doard. Knew nothing of the Heckwith-Fhillips contract as a Commis- sloner, but knew of tha contract by the Board to purchase the land at 8800 per sere. 1t oras hia understanding that 1f the Doard acquired the Jand they wers to pay Phillips $500 per acre, He knew nothing whatevor as to the roported asslgnment Ly Ueckwith to the Tioard of hia oue-fonrth {nferest, except what he hsd heard or read in the papera. The witness w: uestioned as to whal ho kuew about James Root Laving received the money for his professional servichs in the condemnation proceedings at a patticular time, and It was acranved that an a count showing how snd when payments were made aboald be prepared. o on Iy Gen, Kowti—Witnees understodd ‘that ibe price for ihe Phillips land warto bo $500 per Acro, All expenses of litigation were ta bepald out of thissam, If the Commisaion lost tho suit, that s, if I'hillips’ titlc was found to bo defeciive, they wonld probably have to bear the expense out of thelrown pockete, which was ‘)rnbnbly from $10, 000 1012,000. But the effect of Wiolitication had been to fmnu, reduce the price of the land even if the title were gencrally found to be vested in Kerr, Ay Mr. Truesdell—The Patk Board have In thelr porsession all the title held by Phillips and every gflfllcu of Phlllips.

This was the Logan he meant that they had to pay tem of rofersnco otherwise been called on appointed one arblier, Gen. Logan another, and the two picked out a_tiird onv. Bpeskink felm ‘P the expeilence of the Board had been hat arlitration and condomnation proceedinga had been very expensive: that the land acqnired by private purchase gencrally cost abont one-third a» mnch as that condemned or arbitrated upon. The judgment of the Commissloners was that the Juty verdicts in condonmination cases had nothing to do with the evidence. It waa cartaln that the jury were not uided by the prices which the Board bad pald for other pfeces of land adincent, The evl- dence of tho experts could readily be abtalned, and would speak for Itaelf. He knew nothing of his own knowledge.
