TWEEDS CROTON SPECULATION.

HIS AGREEMENT NOT RESPECTED BY Mr.. VAN MORT.
The MahOpac Manufacturing Company has ap-
piled TO Judge Gilbert OF Brooklyn for a mandamus u
compel Commissioner Van Mort behalf OF the city,
acquire seven OF land IN Putnam County including
Lakes Kirk and MahOpsc to increase the ctys supply Of
Croton The basis OF tho motion is contained in the
following outline OF the sffdsvit Of Frederick W.
Kalbeisch Of Brooklyn late President OF the Company
In January, 1869. the Mahopac Manufacturing Com
pany became the in fee simple Of the Red Mills
property in the town of Carmel In Putnam County with
the exclusive right the waters Of the adjacent lakes
Kirk and Mahopac. With deponen MI. Ksibfeisch in
the same year W. NJ Tweed, then Commissioner OF Pub
lio Works of this city, had several Interviews
relative to obtaining the use OF the waters OF
these lakes for New-York The affidavit claims that
Tweed obtained an agreement from the Company to
permit him to enter upon and take possession OF these
lakes and property and construct the necessary works
for connecting watermans Of the city. condition
that Tweed should get bill passed through tho Legs
tnre authorizing him to purchase the property. This
is further claimed no succeeded In doing, and prom
ised TO make the purchase. He did not do 30, owing
10 his removal and the succession, in 1871. OF
Mr. Van Mort. To tho Commissioner the Company
has applied frequently for tho fulnllment OF Tweede
alleged agreement but Mr.. Van Mort has steadily TO-
fused on the ground, first, that Tweed's agreement
was never made TO bind the next Commissioner TO
fulfill II secondly that "a property is 80 valuable in and
around lakes the expenses OF the purchase would
be greater than the Commissioner should incur. and
thirdly Van Mort has another project for furnishing
the city with water less cost and without interfering
with the natural water sources OF the country
In an interview had by TRIBUNE reporter late 1ast
night with william L Martin. counsel'for the Comms
sioner of Public Works in this mandauus suit. 1t vas
learned that the statements contained In Mr. Kalb-
neischs affidavit would be contested By the defendant
on the ground of their insccuracy. Mr.. Martins
position, as partly defined by himself, III that
Tweed never made any valid agreement with
the Mahopac Manufacturing Company to the
effect the CITY, through tho next Commissioner OF
Public Works should purchase and acquire tho very
pensve property sought to bo forced the
ers now At any rate Mr.. Martin does not consider
motion for mandanus the proper proceedings IN rhe
matter and he will contest the motion IN this asp oct
also. The Defendants answer Is comDsted and the
motion will 10 arsued before Iudss Glksrt Monday
