T ~ BE PROBED Bouillon Says He Knows That $150 Was Paid for Permit—Asks for In- quiry—Mayor Notified. | Another graft charge stirred city |halt cireles goday, when A. V,! Houllion, superintendent of public | ntilies brought to the notice of |the board of public works a rept that $150 had been paid by a cer | tain Beattie citizen, whose Identity ||* not revealed, to obtain a building } permit from that body Mr, Bouillon called the attention of the board to the matter in a letter he presented at its regular weekly meeting this morning. He asserts that while riding in a street ear recently he overheard a con versattion in which mention was made of the $160 being paid to some one in the for the permit. | He Became Interested. | “T became interested, ax the re- mark reflected upon the board of public works, of which I am a mem-! ber,” said Mr. Boutlion / “After making further inquiry 1! learned that there was no provision of the law requiring a payment of such a sum, so I decided to call the matter up before the board nteet ing.” | fa his letter the superintendent ‘of public utilities declared that he knew enor of the transaction to | convinces him that a third party, or & “ao-between,” figured in the deal, | This man, it ts reported, retained 60 for his nervices and turned the| remaining $100 over to someone em- ployed by the city. The name of this man, or men, is not known to Mr. Bouillon. } Granted Later. ‘The latter says that the permit in question waa first refused by the beard but later It was granted. The) inference ia drawn that it was) eranted after the $150 was pald by bl man desiring it. Mr. Boutilon | declined to give the board any more | information on the ground that in-| asmuch as the charge involved the | board the investigation of it should not be conducted by that body. He| has already called the attention of) Mayor Miller to the matter, KNOWS NOTHING AND ADMITS IT R. L. Munson Fails Com- whole investigation fell flat when Munson made the surprising an pletely to Prove Graft) souncement that he wished to with Charges Against a City Employe. After he had written two letters to the city counetl, accusing J. D. Rous, ety electrical engineer, of practicing frregularities in his of. floo, R. L. Munson wenkened last night under the bombardment of questions fired at him by Assistant Corporation Counsel Bradford and finally knocked the props from un- dor his own case by repudiating hin own charges. It was before an tnvestigating committee composed of counectimen that Munson, who ts manager of the Electrical Construction company, practically admitted by his own ac tion that he hades attempted to blacken Ross’ reputation with false charges. He stubbornly refused to sworn by Councilman Frederick Sawyer, chief of the finance com mittee, After stating that all he knew about Ross was contained in Uneq be) employ of the city | M8 two letters to the counell, the| heen purchased from the city ualed seme |draw his charges, This change of front was expert enced by the witness after he was run into a corner by Bradford's questions, Munson boldly declared that he had consefentious scruples against taking an oath before any tribunal, and finally squirmed out oft hole in which he found him self by practically expressing his regret that he had accused the elec trical engineer of doing outside work on the city’s time. L. B. Youngs, superintendent of light and water, and Mr, Ross were later questioned. Mr. Youngs de- clared that while in months gone by some employes of his depart ment had done outside work in the city’s shops, he could assure the committee that this practice had | been discontinued Engineer Ross Told a atraightfor- ward story in contradicting Mun- son's charges. The latter charged that material belonging to the elty Itght plant had Ween used by Ross in doing outside work. Ross show- ed the committee receipts, proving beyond doubt that the material had He —————— ES | convinesa the committee that Mun son's charges were false, and ever member of the body voteq unan | mously to exonerate him. The cas was cloned as far as the council concerned, for it had given Munsom every opportunity to make good, ‘GUY HIGGINS DIES IW WILUS OF FOREST Guy B.

A STATEMENT TO THE PUBLIC The Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition management induced numerous manufac- turers of Ranges to exhibit at Seattle’s Fair by distinct assurances that no such indiffer- ent work as served to blacken the reputation of the Portland Fair would characterize the work of the Juries of Awards here. In other words, the awards would be clearly defined and give winning exhibitors some firm and definite foundation upon which to base the advertising through which, and only through which, recompense for the heavy expense incurred in exhibiting Jury. of merit.
