Did these circumstances occar during these negotiations for the DeGolyer contract? A. Yes, sir. @. Do you know the reason why they wanted you to keep you still” A. Mr. Chittenden didn’t state his exact object; he stated that he hat mace negotiations with Huntington; [ ridi- culed the idea that be entertained suc! ment as an ultimatum for gettin Chittenden didn’t want me to say anything be- cause he wanted to get his percentage, and whatever I did wonld detract from bis intla- ence and interests; after Huntington died he said we must get another man; he subs-quently told me had obtained a party; he didn’t say who he was: it was one of Chittenden’s strong points bever to say anything detinite abont anvthing. | @.

Why did you think Mr. Huntington had no influence? A. Ob, I thought he was inilaen- tial, but Idid not think he had the intluence that Chittenden thenght he had; never knew what influence Kirtland used; never b-lieved he had any influence, and do uot beliave it now. I didnot know that Mr. Brown was em- | ployed by Mr. Chittenden. Chittend>n only told me that he had secured incluence which amounted. in effect, to the same as before Han tington’s death. Y. Have you any idea who the man was Chit tenden relied upon’ A. I have an idea; 1 | believe Gov. Cooke was the main man Chitian- den depended upon; don't believe Gov. Cooke knew Kirtland; never paid any money myself to anybody for contracts, either directly or indirectly. «2. Have you been asked to place amounts of money in &ny pérson’s hands to secure cow. tracts? A. Yes, sir: D. W. Smith, a contractor. Wanted me to place in his hands one thousand Collars for the purpose of securing the execution | and continuance of contracts. Smith gave his note for $4,600 to his lawyer, Mr. Jeirevs. asked me =ene 60, and a ely refased. Smitb gave this money to Jeffreys to secure his services to protect him in his contract. I never wasasked to place any mouey in the hands of Gov, Cooke. I never stated that I had been so | asked. Q. Have you not stated you were to money in Governor Cooke's lands? 1 bave said to Mr. Quimby that I had paki the last doliar to the last blackmailer that ever ap- proached me. Q.
