Before the Clark investigation closed yester- day Messrs. Hay and Miller, attorneys for Mr, Clark, objected to the introduction of evidence concerning alleged defects in the construction ofthe City Hall building, except such as related to the defects specified in the charges, Tho question raised was submitted by Major Jonas to Assistant Secretary Muldrow tn a letter. Assistant Secretary Muldrow, in reply, stated: “In court of law,I think, this charge would be bad pleading in an indictment, or even a declaration. It is too broad in its terms to give roper notice what Mr. Clark {s called upon to fetend, and could be taken advantage of by demurrer. The object of this investigation, however, is to obtain facts to be submitted to the Secretary of the Interior affecting the official conduct of Architect Clark to enable him to form a judgment as to whether there is just groun oreomplatntof maladministration made ainst him by the prosecutors of this case. ‘ith this view, a greater latitude on both sides has been indulged in the investigation than would be ordinarily ‘mitted in @ trial in a court of law. Iam of the opinion, therefore, that testimony tending to ve defects in the constructio.... “ny partof the north wing of the City Hall sho, received.” ‘This corresponde..ce was read when the in- vestigation was resumed today. Mr. Miller entered a respectful protest against itas unjust to Mr, Clark. Mr. Jackson amended his specifications so that the charges would cover ee pope ae and the stonework on the north wing of the building. Mr. Lewis Fay, a plasterer, who worked on the new wing of the City Hall, testified that the rh casting had not been sand finishing and ro done properly, He had observed the cracking in the plastering, which he attributed to the use of bad mortarand the fact that the joists were not properly braced. He sald that it was anything but a first-class job of plastering. uring the proceedings to-day Mr. Miller sug- gested that {f the Secretary decided to appoint & commission to examine the terrace at the Capitol the same commission should inspect the dome of the Capitol building and the north ‘wing of the City Hall. e050 —____ The Great Falls Dam Suit.
