MENT YET TO BE HEARD
tBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE
WASHINGTON. May s.--A the hearing OF the Com
mittee on Banking and Currency this morning, addi-
tonal facts Of interest brought ont illustrating
the management of the Bureau of Engraving and
Printing. Mr. Stuart, President of the Continental
Bank Nots Company of New-York, testified that, two
or three years ago. Mr.. Boutwell, requested him TO
make proposition for printing the legal tenders and
fractional currency In response to this proposition,
he offered to perform the work at Sl3 per 1000 i'm
presSions reduction of nearly so per cent on the
rates the Treasury Department were then paying,
namely, So per 1000. Mr.. Boutwell, replied that he
could not then accept the offer, as he
had learned 1t would require a new set
of plates he did not wish to change them
af that time and that when they were changed his
proposition would be received. Recently new plates
have been made and a contract awarded to the
Columbian Bank Note Company of Washington at
SIG per thousand an entire disregard of the oler OF
the Continental to do the work for $l3
Mr. Stuart further testified that Mr.. McCartee. the
chief of the Bureau Of Engraving and Printing, had
oxpostulated with him for Offering to do the work
for so low a price, saying that 1t would lDJure the
Department as they could not possibly do it at those
rates and promising to give him a share of the work
if he would withdraw his offer, and make a new
proposition at the rates paid TO the other companies
This he declined. In the month of February last,
Mr. McCaTtee told the Vce-PTesident of his Com
pany, Judge Mcneil, that in consequence Of the
course the New-York Baak Note companies had
taken he was determined to crush them out. Mr.
Stuart further testified that the Commissioner of
Internal Revenue had advertised for proposals for
stamps, and that among II competitors their bid
was the lowest at 81 13a thousand impressions; that
subsequently he found the work taken from him
and given to Mr. McCartee who had offered to
furnish the same stamps at 81 cents a thousand :;
tha the had ascertaned by taking the entire amount
of stamps furnished by MI. McCartee, and dividing
the number by the gross amount which appeared 10
have been paid TO him. by the report Of the Fifth
Auditor that the actual cost of these stamps was
over 81 80 per thousand.
Mr.. Stuart claimed that his Company was abuu-
dainty able to perform his work at his prices
named at a profit, and to give whatever guar
autees were required for the prompt and faithful
performance OF its contract. 1t is proposed 10 call
Mr. McClrtee, and question him in regard to the
above statements and il is possible he may be able
10 show an entirely different state Of facts.
