10 THE CANAL FRAUDS. —o Yesterday's Session of the Canal Commission, ——_ EXAMINATION OF MR. RICHMOND, pane Evasive Replies as to Furnishing Maps, Plans and Estimates. fe SENS. A NON-GOMMITTAL WITNESS. Auwany, August 20, 1875, Hon. Van R. Richmond, State Engineer and Sur- j ‘veyor in the years 1868, 1869, 1870 and 1871, appeared before the Canal Investigating Commission to-day to be examined as to the existence of maps, plans, estimates, &c., and their being submitted when lettings were made by the Canal Board of the work from Port Schuyler to the lower Mohawk aqueduct, Mr. Bigelow, chairman of the commission, said:— “We have been trying, Mr. Richmond, in vain, for three months, to find the maps, &c., of fifteen contracts made in 1869, The State Engineer and division engi- neers swear there are none on file in their offices. Mr, Crocker, the Division Engineer, swears mone were made, The exhibits of the contracts ex- clude the idea that any survey of the work was ever made, and with these facts before us we reported our conclusions to the Governor. Then in the Argus ap- peared acard signed by yourself and Mr. Beach assert- ing that our statements were unfounded in fact and untrue, We sent for Mr. Beach, and he failed to show that we were wrong We ask you now if you know of the existence of these papers? If 80, produce them. If you do not know, state whether you know or believe ‘that such were made,” Mr. Ricuwonp—It is my firm belief, Mr. BigkLow—Please state what you know, Mr. Ricumonp—I want to say bere ut is my firm be- lief that there were such papers Mr. Beach was very particular in examining them. Mr. Bicktow—No; that is not what we want to know. We have examined Mr. Beach. Mr. Ricuwonp—The square fact is that you claim it ‘was not a map, is it? Mr. BiaELow—Yes, Mr. Ricumonp—There is on file, in the Anditor’s office, amap of the entire Erie Canal, adopted by the ‘Legislature and by the Canal Board. That map is all that is necessary and that has always been the case, ‘The law of 1862 prohibited the Canal Board from chang- ing the plans of the canals as thus adopted. Now here ‘were perfect maps of the entire canal on record in the Canal Departinent, and to make or adopt others would ‘De simply to adopt what was already in existence, Mr, Biaxzow—Did the map you allude to show the amount of work, &., in this case? Mr. RichMonp—I don’t know the terms of the con- trac BickLow—How could you ascertain the quantities of work to be done without 4 survey? Mr. Ricumonp—So far as straightening the line was concerned an instramental survey would be made. Mr. Macons—That is not an answer. Could yon give the quantities needed without actual measurements? Mr, Ricumonp—No. I know nothing of any map being exhibited to the Cana) Boarg before the letting. Mr. Orz—Was there any map such as contemplated by statute? Mr. Ricnwowp—Yes, sir.

Mr. MaGonz—Did you not vote fo stating there were maps, &c., present Mr. Ricuwonp—Yees, sir. Mr. Macoye—Then, did not the law provide for re- Quiring maps, &., to be exhibited ?

Mr. Rremmonp desired to call attention to the action of the Canal Board in 1874 to show there was a differ- ence of opinion as to the construction of the law be- tween the Commission and the Board. He reati a reso- lution to show that no map of a certain piece of work was presented, and he again insisted that no map o(ler than that on file was necessary. Mr. Van Burks—You do not think it important that the Canal Commissioners should be prevented from bullding a vertical wall before a reck face, or that there should bea map put on file to show where the wall | should be made? Mr. Ricuwonp—I would think it important if the rock was sound, Mr. Vay Burex—If such plans had been submitted would you approve of them? Mr. Magonk—I call your attention to the lettings of the 11th of June, 1869, when several million dollars’ worth of work were let, and we will adjourn till three o'clock, when you can Come on the stand again for ex- amination. At three o’clock P. M. the examination of Mr. Rich- mond was continued concerning lettings by the Canal Board on the 1th of June, 1869, involving appropria- ons amounting to over $2,000,000, Mr. MaGone—Was there any map or plan for the re- moval of the bridge at Syracus Mr. Ricumwoxp—Is there any map or plan with the es- timates ¥ Mr. Macons—If you want to learn such facts and want time we will give it to you. Mr. Ricnmoyp—I am willing to admit that there were irregularities. Mr. Maconx—That is not the question. In your card you censured us for what we said in our report, Now we Want to raise the pomt in issue, as plain us possible, that we were right and you were wrong; or that you shall justify, what you ‘claim in your card, for ‘the good it may have in the State. Now, if you have any evidence to show there were any maps, &c., in these lettings we want it, | Mr. Rictawonp—Do I understand you to say that by an act of mine fraud was committed? Mr. Macoxs—We do not say anything of that kind. What we want to know is whether such maps, plans, | &c., a3 are required by law were submitted. | Mr. BigzLow—Every annual Appropriation act had a clause in it requiring Such maps, plans, &c, Mr. Ricumoxp—Have you a list of the works? Mr. Macons—Yes, sir. Here they are, Mr. Ricumonp (after looking over the list)—I cannot say whether these were taken from the record, WitNEss was assured they were correct, and said the maps might have been omitted Mr. Macoxz—Do you know of any reason for the omission ¢ Witess—It was the practice of the Board to tuke the estimates from the Commissioners, Mr. Maconz—Will you swear there were no maps? Mr. Bigktow—I think it is about time an answer was given by this witness. Here we have been ques- tioning all day and have not had an answer yet. Wirxess then answered that he was not aware of any work being let without plans, Mr. MaGong said that was not an answer, Wirxess—I cannot say anything else. filed either in the State Engineer's office or Auditor's, Mr. Orr—But we find they have not been filed. Mr. Ricumonp—Do I understand this Board to say that the work was let without any maps, plans or esti- mates ? Mr. Biorrow—Yes, sir; we do say that No pli | &c., as are required by law, were submitted, and you are the only man in the State who says there were. Now, we ask you if you know of any, and you say you suppose there were. What we want to know is if you know of any—if you, as State Engineer, who oughi to know, do really know of any such maps, plans, &c. being’ submitted at any letting? Now, do you persist im saying you suppose, when we want to know if you know—if you have actual knowledge ? Mr. Rucumonp—I can say nothing more than I have. I admit there were irregularities, but I must insist there were papers submitted. Whether they were such as you think ought to be submitted, or not, I cannot say. ‘The examination on this point here terminated. EX STATE iGINERR TAYLOR. Unica, August 20, 1 The following letter from ex-State Engineer William B. Taylor, of this city, addressed to the editor of the Utica Morning Herald, will be published to-morrow morning: To tue Epiror oF tue Urica Monninc Henry :— In the second report of the Governor's Commission, pub- lished in the New York Tribune of August 17, relating to the | Bast Utica contract, there are some charges which demand my notice. t is there stated that the canal authorities, including the | State Engineer, Mr. Taylor, conniyed at the extension of the | vertical wall for over a mile aloug his property and beyond. In answer to this Ihave to say that my term of office as State Engineer, preceding my last, term, expired on Decern- j ber 1, 1865. Twas again elected and’ went into office on fanuary 1, 1872. Between Janvary 1, 1866, and January 1, | 1872, I was not State Engineer, and held no office whatever. | The contract under which all the work bas been done was made in 1869, in pursuance of chapter 877 of the laws of that year. Under this contract the contractors have always claimed, and the Canal Commissioners have always reco; nized ‘their right to capsttuct al] the — vertical wall within the Wits named for which approp?™ might | be made, The sury of $15,000 was by this same O- | printed io laplete the wall to the. culvert east. of Clay zirest, By chapter $50 of the Laws of 1872 the Legislature made an appropriation to complete the vertical wall from pe starch factprs bridge to the completed wall near the old Kmekiln, that being th same point to which the wall bad | | bee It under the law and contract of | $33. 4 nis piece of work Was also done ua- der the contract of 1869. ‘These appropriations the entire bank of the canal from Clay street te the of my land. The wall beyond that was constructed der this saine contract, by an appropriation made in chap- 767 of the Laws of 1870.” I purchased the land to whi reference is made in February, 1870.

The attendance during the meeting has been small, and little interest was shown in the races. FLEETWOOD PARK. The attendance at the trotting matches yesterday at Fleetwood Park was not very full The weather was exceedingly pleasant and the course in excellent order. Thero was rather a lack of animation in the sale of pools, yef the running was good and well contested, and first rate time was made according to the expressed views of the judges. The surrounding country never looked to better advantage; the scenery was most pleas- ing and picturesque, and those who came to witness the day’s sport had their enjoyment much enhanced, The first race was won by Katie S. in three straight heats, but the second was more closely contested, In the second heat of the latter race Carrie Meyers lost a shoe when neck and neck with Genuine, a few hundred yards on the homestretch from the judges’ stand. In the subsequent heats her opponent seemed to be handled by @ more experienced driver, and, though failin win the race, showed admirable qualities. The follow- ing is the summary:.

A LARGE ATTENDANCE AND GREAT DISAPPOINT- MENT OF THE ‘YACHTSMEN—REFUSING TO TAKE THE RISK OF SHIPWRECK—THE ROWING | RACE, Oak Buvrrs, Mass., Angust 20, 1875. The long talked-of Vineyard regatta did not prove as successful as was anticipated, only two schooners in the first class and half of the sloops in the second class having started. This was owing to the fact that the charts gave but fifteen feet as the maximum depth of water in somo parts of the course, and some charts gave only ten of the other yachts nearly as much, their owners re- fused to take the risk of shipwreck, Thousands of ladies and gentlemen were on the island to witness the regatta, and all was gayety at the hotels, ‘The yachts- The schooners Alice and Estelle started at 1h. 15m. with a six-knot breeze, and the sloops, seven in num- ber, started baif an hour later. The rowing race between the whaleboats of the sev- eral fishing towns proved a success, giving great sath faction to the crowds that lined the shore, Eight boats nyaged in the contest. The distance was one mile turn, The crew from Ward 6, New Bedford, ume in ahead, followed a few seconds later by the w from Edgartown, with the others fur behind. ‘The race for the schooners was won by the Alice, of | Providence, iu dh.
