Mr. Taulbee’s Committee Continues Its Examination. MR. JOHN F. COX GIVES HIS TESTIMONY AS TO THOSE WHICH HE SOLD TO THE DISTRICT— SOME INTERESTING FACTS BROUGHT OUT BY ‘MRE. TAULBEE’S QUESTIONS, All the members of the Taulbee committee, the District Commissioners and Messrs. Cox and West were promptly on hand this morning when the school-site investigation was resumed. The only persons late were the attorneys. Mr. Davis was half an hour late and Mr. Payne did not come at all. Mr. Webb suggested, as the counsel were not present, that the committee proceed as they began Saturday and hear first the objectors to the methods of the Commis- sioners, then the Commissioners could reply. Mr, Taulbee thought, however, it might obvi- ate the examination of many witnesses by hear- ing the Commissioners’ explanation first. It was finally decided that Mr. Sohn F. Cox should take the stand. MR. COX GIVES HIS TESTIMONY. Mr. Cox had a packet of manuscript in his hand, and as he took a seat in the witnesschair he said that he had written out ashe recol- lected them the facts relating to these various transactions. From time to time during his examination he referred to ator memoranda, The witness said he was a lawyer. “Are you a dealer in real ootate?” asked Mr. Tauibee. “I have dealt in real estate,” said the wit- ness, “Have you a license to deal in real estate?” “Yes, sir.” “When did you get it?” “T took one out, I think, about two months oe “Did you! have & license Prior to that?” “Yes, sir,” said the wit ness, “in Mr. Dodge's term of office as assesso! “When did that expire? “About a year ago, in November, I think.” After some further testimony respecting his agency, Mr. Cox said, ‘I should state that all tnis property came right in my hads. I do not advertise in any bo f through the city or put out posters as a real estate agent.” “What was the reason of your taking out a license?” “It was rather demanded of me that I should do it,” said the witness, “Who demanded it?” “The assessor,” said the witness, “directed a a note requesting that I should take out a The witness then went over the list of twenty-seven sites purchased by the Commis- sioners that has been laid before the com- mittee, and picked out nine sites with the pur- chase of which he was connected. He was walking on the Avenue one day when he met Commissioner Webb and Col. Totten.. Mr. Webb requested witness to call at his office — reference to the purchase of the sites then appropriated for. That was in 1885, soon after the appropriation was made.

PP Signe La sir; that appears to be the case,” said Mr. Taulbee called attention to the fact that the deed to Pickrell was recorded at 8:21 p. m. + ease District at 3:23 p. m., the same "The witness said the difference in time was Probably because it took two or three minutes for the clerk to write a receipt. The deeds were recorded at the same time. The witness said he did not think the mene hooting mate ba de the 5 anit until after bie doo eae ‘MR. PICKRELL’S NAME WAS USED. In explaining why Mr. Pickrell’s name was used he said the District required a full war- ranty deed, which the company represented by Messrs. Weller & declined to give. “What did Mr. Daniel 8.

He did not tell the omeriadgnacs or any one at their office the poscees he had made for the far of the pi ‘Are you related sliner of the Commis- sioners?” asked Mr. Taulbe “To Mr. Webb, I am not,” said Mr. Cox. “To Mr. Wheatley my relation is so remote that, as I remarked to a friend of mine last night, I thought it was based on the fact that our an- cestors probably used the same cellar door.” “As a matter of fact,” said Mr. Taulbee, “can you state what relation you are?” “I do not know,” said the witness, DON’T KNOW HIS RELATIONSHIP, “Is it blood gr marriage?” “I do not know, sir.” “Do you recognize Mr. Wheatley as a kins- man’ ‘Our families have a great regard for each other,” said the witness; “it was custot to say ‘cousin,’ but there is no blood relationship that I know of.” “Are you related to Mr. West?” “I am not that I know of.” The witness was next examined as to the purchase of THE SITE OF THE BRADLEY SCHOOL building on 1834 street, between C and D southwest, December 10, 1885, deed to Walter 8. Cox. He said he purchased it from the agents, Thos, J. Fisher & Co., for the price named, $5,000. The witness knew no reason why the Commissioners would not have pur- chased at the same figure. He said, in answer to Mr. Taulbee, that he did not know of any case actually where prices had been raised be- cause the District desired to purchase, A friend of his, C. H. Cragin, said, in one case, that he would have paid $5,000 in excess of the Dis- trict’s bid rather than have it purchase a cer- tain lot next to his for a school site. He got $185 from Fisher & Co. for the sale of the Bradley site. It was usual, the witness said, where one real estate agent sells for —— to receive half of the commissions. ae ‘ot more than half of the usual commission ‘is case. The witness said he had not at that time any knowledge of any one having ever refused to sell or to ask a higher price for property sold for the District. He would venture to assert, from his conversations with property-owners, 99 per cent of them would be UNWILLING TO SELL FOR SCHOOL SITES, When asked if he had met objections in any of these cases by owners who were opposed to selling for school sites, he said he had in the selection of Arthur street site. The agents, Thos. J. Fisher & Co., declined to go on until they had consulted their client, Mr. Hurt. Mr. Hurt said he had no objection to it. The witness said he thought that was the only case in which objection was made. In reference to THE WEIGHTMAN SCHOOL SITE, 284 and M streets, purchased September 9, 1886, the witness said he wrote to Mr. Samuel Norment, who was at Deer Park, in reference to the price of property he owned at the corner of New Hampshire avenue and I street. After- ward the Commissioners thought the site at 23d and M streets would be more desirable for various reasons, and he was requested to try and obtain this site. He examined the asses- sor’s books and found that it was assessed in the name of Martha M. Read. Remembering that Mr. J. V.N. Huyck was al agent for her property here, he went to his office. The result was that the witness offered the property to the District for 99 cents. He did not know then who the owner was. The record showed that it was transferred to the District by J. W. Sinclair, jr. “Do you know any reason why this property was conveyed to Mr. Sinclair?” “I do not,” saidthe witness, WHAT HE REALIZED IN THE TRANSACTION, “How much did you realize in this transac- tion?” asked Mr. Taulbee. “I think I got $500 for my services.” “From whom?” “From Mr. Huyck.” “Do you know what compensation the owners of this property got?” “I do not, sir.” He said all he knew as to the price the owners had received was what he learned from the newspapers lately. The witness when asked whether he had ever told the Commissioners of the paid the — or the money he made said 7 had te] ania when operating for them at any tell what com] maulion you made?” e Cr CMiep ate a ition to the price xy ever question you as rt paying?” a esented a trust ty for $9,000, te person who — on it without trouble. oaly ty was offered by another agent for ¢1 an oh Ag Commissioners paid 99 cents. the committee took @ revess for one temporarily suspended as a convenience to Gen.
