The investigation was resumed at two
| O'Clock to-day.
| The first witness examined was Mr..
Wood, lessee OF the water power of Lock
| No. ]. He stated that he leased Lock
No. in 1868, and that the lease was pub
lie to all bidders, open for competition
and awarded to the highest bidder. He
could not recollect as to what the price
OF the old lease was.
| lie was one OF the parties who desired
| that the BOyce bill to abandon the canal
bed in Cincinnati should pass. although
he could not say that he interested HIM
self particularly in The matter. lie could
not say as TO the position of the lessees
| of the public works on that question.
He did not recollect OF ever having given
expressions TO any of Mr.. Halstead's
opinions concerning the matter.
AT the time the bill was first intro
duced it was probable that the Southern
Railroad would cross the Ohio on the
Newport bridge, and he wanted the ca
nal bed to be used as "a means OF con-
Meeting the East and West end rail-
roads. He did not know how many bids
had been made for the water power Of
Lock No. 1.
Mr.. M. Halstead, editor of the Com
mercial, was called and stated that he
had learned some facts since his former
examination before the Committee bear
ing upon the matter under investigation.
He first attacked, through the CONNER
cial. the management of the canals in
1872, although he had previously learned
a great many facts in connection with
the matter which led him to more thor.
0ugh investigation.
The first was from facts brought out at
the vestigation OF 1896. He could not
remember as to any series OF commune
cations or facts leading up to his discus
sion of the subject. The first matter
which seriously attracted his attention
was the Middletown suit.
Mr.. Sherlock had called his attention
to an article concerning the Middletown
locks, published in the Gazette and cop
led into the Commercial. AS to the mer-
its of that communication he was not
prepared to.speak. There was a variety
of cirt umstances between the date of
that communication and 1871 which led
to his agitation OF the matter, culmlnat-
ing in series Of articles in the Gazette
concerning the improvement of Millcreek
Valley.
The memorial of the lessees of the
public works in 1872 he considered as the
hrst step IL scheme to dispose of the
canals ,t0 the Slate and repurchase at a
low figure. He could not give all the
sources Of Information from which he
had drawn his facts.
When he spoke Of profligacy by men,
bers OF the Board he had alluded to Mr..
Backus. He had deputized Mr.. Vance
to work up tie matter because his repu.
lar Columbus correspondent had been In
the hands Of Mr.. Manypenny. He had
always regarded the Board as an in.
terror one under the direction Of some
heavier body. s--e4' s,

Mr.. Reed continued-"Mr. Backus was

the canal before bought the stock"
''Did you favor this $2O,0O0 lease as an
editor~
IL favored breaking the original lease
because l thought they were fraudulent

"Were not some of these lessees in

"Thcy were. Although l do not claim
to have been intimately connected with

the leasing project, and, when the State
erccts marble statues to her bene factors,
l. ought to come in first. Don't know
who all the members OF the company
We're; thought the action of the Legis-
lature in sending out the Committee was
unnecessary and unjust"
"Why did you unqualifiedly indorse
the appropriation of $500,000 during the
past len years for, the canals ?"
"Because thought the expenditures
for improvements, ETC., required it, and
l think none of them were misapplied.
Were not your articles written from

''They were written in newspaper
controversy as replies to other articles,
and not as coming from a stockh0lder.
This, as Understand, is a trial OF the
Guzette. L don't think any of the arti-
clus brought under consideration were
as from private standpoint, bit as

appropriations were properly used, and
that no fraud was used in connection
with them.'
"Did you make any special efforts to
fiDd frauds in The canal management in
any Wayp
Il have not. The investigation has
run into criticism of the Gazette. and
that the arLic.es We're written from Il
selfish standpoint"
Mr.. Reed here read an article from the
Gazette in which the acts Of the Com
nlitlee in regard to the action of that
paper were piece of impertinence. and
mildly renal ked that he still held the
same views, and that when Mr.. Smith
said i'll his testimony to the Committee,
he testified that he did not know that
he owned stock in the canal; might have
known, tor he (Reed) had published a
card in connection with a controversy
in which he distinctly said that he Mas

his position on the Gazette to favor it.
MIR. Reed further claimed that as all the

up, were Of controversial nature. that
