Attorney Courtnay represented the cpmmlttco. Henry M.

" ' 'In the First district from Cedar creek ; Second district sand from Pomoroy Coal company , nnd from Young's. The rest catno from the ditch at Eighth nn < 1 K street. For the Third district the sand came from l an- hum nnd the ditch. " "How was the sand nnd cement mixed ! " ' 'When the Inspector was looking it was mixed ns called for , two to ono of sand. "When ho was looking It was mixed ton to ono of sand. I was Instructed to watch the inspector , nnd when his back was turned to use as little cement ns possible. I have einco figured It up , and I think wo saved the contractors ten or flttoon sacks of cement n day. I worked on the third district , or part of it. " "How were the bricks that were used In the sewers ! " "Just about medium. " "What kind ot brick were used In the catch basin ? " "When the Inspector was not looking , wo were instructed to use bats. " "How about the catch basin at McFar- land's ? " "It was built almost entirely of bats. " "How much cmnont was used ? " "If the inspector was not looking , not over a half bucketful. " "Would they lay them up loose ! " "Yes , until they saw the inspector , then thny would cement. " "Did you have anv trouble with Miller or Lucas about the work and your discharge i" "No , air. " "And you nro not testifying because of personal matters ? " "Not ot nil. " "How did you do the mixing ! " "Whenever the inspector was away from our gang wo would pllo In the sand ; when ho was with us tha other gangs would work it the same way. These were our orders. I think all of us saved the contractors about , eighty sacks a day. I think wo saved about one-third of the cement. " "Tho contractors , they said sand was the cheapest , und to use it when wo could. " "What wages did you got a day ! " , "Two dollars. " "Why were you laid off from the work ! " "They reduced the force , nnd I suppose that was the reason. " "All the work in the cement nnd using bats Was n system to beat the city , was it ! " "It looked that way to mo. " "Did you'think 'It ' right ! " "No , I did not ; but I did as my employers told mo. " Tlrrd Itoeonts. Aspirants for the regency of the stnto uni versity will have n free field lor the repub lican nominations next fall. Regents Malta- lieu and Hull , who have boon attending a board meeting in Lincoln this week , declare themselves out of tha race fur ronomlnatlon. They have had enough , und say they will not accent n ronomlnntion. There is nothing in the position but honor and bare expenses. The board has twp regular and generally two special meetings each year. Regent Malla- lieu says these meetings consume the tiuio which ho would otherwise use as a vacation , find ho has not been nblo to revisit his eastern homo for several years. The ulumni of the university nro likely to take n hand in thu contest for the republican nominations this year. Individual graduates urged McAllister , of Columbus , two nnd four years ago , .but thoio was no organized effort among the graduates as a body. At the mooting of the alumni as sociation this week the matter was cau- cusscil , nnd it is understood the graduates determined on an organized campaign to boost two of thalr'number into the republican nominations. The regents have authorized Prof. Bcssey , the acting chancellor , to engage n $ .3.000 man in tha place of Dr. Billings , in the agricul tural experiment station. The doctor's sal ary was $3,500. Billings will leave , next 'Wednesday , for Newport , R. I. , to make an address before the American Medical soci ety. Ho tins shipped ills goods to Milwaukee , where ho expects to have a laboratory , backed by private capital , to continue his experiments. Ho speaks confidently of n strong company to carry out his schema foe insuring hogs against cholera. Ho feelssoro because the regents have forgotten to pass resolutions complimentary to htm on the eve of his departure. It transpires that the doc tor and Prof. Bossoy have had a tiff over Billing's latest "bulletin , " now iu press. The acting chancellor took the liberty to expurgate - purgato the work. Tlio "Wesleynn Commencement. The W-Csloynn University will hold Its first commencement , commencing next Sunday , at 3 o'clock in the afternoon.

The writ was for- inaliy applied frr yesterday nftornoon , and a decision is hoped to bo reached before the pioaont pitting of tho. court adjourns , The case wci submitted on briefs , and rests with out ou'l argument. As the case U uiosi peculiar n character , a brief synopsis is pro eentad , to.'othcr with the law points , in volved lu the implication for the writ. Oi tlio morning of Ap.-il J , 2tio5 , the cl.wollla | bouse of his plloj.o I victims was burned U the ground.

( strict court In Lincoln county , Long was rlod ana convicted of murdering , ho parties ns charged nnd sentenced to hang , no following May. The case WAS taken to , ho supreme court and reversed. It 19 ihargcd that the rulings ot Judge Hamer ivore BO tnanlff stly biased that the court was unit for reversal. In April , 1833 , anew rand Jury was called and n uow Indlotmont ircseiited against Long , charging him with Idlng and nbcttlng in the commission of the rime , and Ernest Meyers with having com- ulttcd the murder. All other indictments , vero nollod.
