Although It waB stated In several newspaper publica tions today thai Altorney Wallace of Pitts- burg was to call at the Navy departmcnl with a collection of new evidence , to show that great frauds had been perpetrated on the government In connection with naval armor steel contracts , the nltorney had not appeared this afternoon. Six weeks ago Mr. Wallace wioto Scciotary Herbeit that ho had such evidence , and ho waj twice In vited to biibmlt It. but nothing had been heard from him lately. When Secietary Heibert ehaiged Captain Sampson , Ihe chief of ordnanc , to make the llrst Investigation , his bouid , with the purpose of making It thorough , wont buck to the beginning of the plate making , and HO covered the period from the summer of 1S3J down to last autumn , when the mode of procedure nt Iho mills was so changed as to make further fiiuululenl practices Im possible. In maUIng up the report Captain Sampson did not stop nt the plates which were shown clearly to have been defective. Ilo went much fuither , and , nolwithBtand- Ing the protest of the company's agents , he fixed Iho penalties and assessed damages on the assumption that every lot of plates made during the pcilod covered by the In vestigation contalntd the sumo percentage of defects. So It ( he elvdencu collected by Attorney Wallace and ex-Ilurgcss MC- Luckle of Homestead relates to any plates madt since the hummer of 1S9J and that Is practically all of the plate It would simply confirm the depirtment'B assumption. No further penalties could bo assessed , for al ready these plates have been penalized , and the Infoimi'is could lecolvo no monetniy consideration Still , as Secretary Herbert Is desirous of missing no oppoi tunlty to learn all of the facts In the case , ho will give careful intention to anything Mr. Wal lace nmy present If U relates to a new phasu of the case.
