LOCAL LETTERS
MR. HQQLEY RESPONDS

To hs Editor Of Tho Chicago Tribune:
SIBERIAN HOUSE, CHICAGO. Nov. Gin your
issue Of Friday last appeared letter over the
signature OF one L. T.. Rockwell, who assumes
to speak as the illegal representative " oi
Thomas Mcguire, making certain auegstions
therein in answer, as this illegal representative r
states, to certain statements made in THE Tu1B-
uEE OF the 4th inst.
As have already been before tho public in
my unfortunate connection with 1lr. Maguite
more than in agreeable to ma, should rest con-
tented without any further hearing OF my own
motion, we're it not that such statements as are
made in Mr. Rockwell's letter are such absolute
falsehoods from beginning to end that deem
it my duty to the public to deny each aud every
statement therein as false, and that
each and all of such statements are
made without the 1enst shadow Of
fact upon Which they could be based. The state
ments that appeared in your issue OF Nov.
were substantially the same - appear III the
pleadingB, which arc sworn to By myself. in the
case recently brought by Mr. J. Fl. Ha7erly
asains, me in the Circuit Court of Cook County,
and all OF such statements are fully corroborated
By the afidAvits Of numerous Witnesses under
oath aud filed 10 the above csse.
As to my desire I" to court favor and sympathy
with the Chicago public, have simply to SAY
that my public and private life since came to
this city is open to Investigation, and ask no
favors OF the public except that they READ the
evidence produced in my behalf in the case be-
fore alluded to.
As Mr. Rockwell has assumed to make his
sta:ements from his "own intimate knowledge
Of the PREMISES" shall in due time give h1m
before court OF justice. Respectfully yours,
r. u. HooIET.

Armour said he supposed the Warehouse Com
missioners had nothing at ali to do. nor had the7
anything whatever to do with the Inspectors
after their appointment unless cases .of trouble
some nature in inspecting should a1lse, in
nhich case the Inspectors might be conrersed
with. As to the appointment in question, Mr.
Armour knew nothing. except that it had been
made by some one. He thought it no objection
to man that he had been thrifty, and had saved
money in some other occupation, rather should
it rebound to his credit provided that
he understood the business 10 4hich he
was attending. Bet the mischief Of
the system waa that during the last two or three
years, the State had had the appointment OF In-
spectors. md the appointments did not seem to
have been always made With any reference either
to tue ability OF msn to grade grain or their moral
character. Tho facts were that some of the ap-
pointees wete mere loafers before beire taken
into the department, and we're capable Of being
little better than bummers in that or any other
capacity
also prominent representative OF the grain in
terest was present during this conversation with
Mr Armour, and on being appealed to, re-
marked that he supposed it was pretty we'll
understood t hat the State Inspectors Depart
ment Was being run as q mere political machine
and had been SO from the beginning, with but
little exception. He tbonght It we'll that under
such system matters had been no worse than
heretofore. But this he did not wiah to be con-
strred az an opinion that the Rrain-inspection
could not be materially benefited by radical
change

A TRIBUNE reporter yesterday followed up the
commencement made in Saturday, Issue regard
ing tho illegal appointment OF Assistant Grain

sentative men OF the elevator and grain interests

signed to their Elevator B, on commission ns
Tnlrd Assistant Inspector. with salary i1ed st
@75 per month. subject to increase OF S25
extra in the event Of his proving a
careful and apt Inspector. Tile Law
clearly prescribes that all Third Assistant
Inspectors ahah receive 5lU0 per mouth, aud in
asmuch as he was made responsible to the Iu-
epector at Elevator A, the crookedness of the
appointment Was made still moro apparent,
When Elevator 3 closed some time ago tie ap-
prentice Was transferred from it to Elevator 4,
where be was made clerk at salary Of 800 pes
month, S25 more than during his apprentice
ship, aud ESQ more than is paid to receiving
clerks according to Law. Now, as the mans ap-
titude for learning was not great, nor his oppo--
tunity to learn Of the best, az Elevators 4 and
do no business other than in corn, the ques-
ton aElses. What Inducements were ther5 for
the Chief Inspector to lover him in position aud
increase his salary, and what personal friend

maintained in position in place OF more compe-

Very little busin ess WAS transacted by the

other individuals who, it is claimed, contributed

The County Treasurer Yesterday prepared

Board to morrow, notifying that body that th1
general county fund bad been exhausted, and
Recommending that the Treasurer be authorized
to borrow 3l00, 900 at once to tneet the current

The Committee on Hospital and Public Char

Willard Was overhauled, and reminded that he
would either have to do the work on the new
hospital more rapidly or make room for some
ono else. He made fair promises. aud the arch
itect was ordered to report to the Board Monday
how veil he kept them. Some OF Wizards en-
that thev had not been paid, and, on tho whole,
Wizards prospects looked gloomy.
THE COURTHOUSE PLANS.
Architect Egan Was before the Committee on
Public Buildings and Public Service Yesterday
afternoon. to press the formal acceptance OF his
the plans at length, and his explanations seemed
entirely satisfactory to the Committee. In retly
to Inquiries, he said his plans had been p1ac-
hcay iodor6ed by the city's architect but he
understood that now he Vas draw
ing. new ones. &c (Egan) had
made several a1terations in his plans at the sug
eeetlon Of Mr. Iilley, II otder to ,romore &
spirit Of harmony, aud II Tll1ey was now making
new rians he did not consider that he Was act
ing very courteously. The plana he had naada
had been tacitly accepted by the Board already,
bu: be would make such changes IN them as
were deemed necessary, though any alterations
now would entail great expense for the

tionlnR, tho Committee agreed to recommend to !

did not forget it, Why don't it appear in his items

| tract Of land for the same work? And, II he
did not forget it, why don't it appear III his items
OF receipts?
On page 525 OF tho Revised ststutes Of 1874
you will also find that tho Clerk ia entitled, for
extending other than Stats and county taxes, to
| cent for each tract or lot, and each personal
tax to be paid by the authority for whose benefit
tho same is extended. Query: Does COOK County
now, when entitled to the fees work for nothing?
In my estimate BY the increase OF lots which are
annually added to the ta1-list By new subdivision.
the amount of fees due from the South and
West Parks and Lincoln Park Commissioners
muet be At least $1,000.
Again, the General says that I have re-
ceiged from feos, from probate matters and
special assessments tho sum Of $2l, 502:-
ii. + suppose i did, while he himself
only received from tho samo source
59.764.91. While 1 admit that the
25 per cent. it ia my opinion that the natural in
crease OF the business will nearly balance that
dlfforence, and the buginess in tho probate de-
partment OF the Office must have increased Won
derfully, otherwise it would not require i've
clarks to attend to it. while previously two did
all the work quite satisfactorily.
And again, the General claims that
I have received from tavern and peddler
licenses, cer!lGed copies, etc, the round
sum Of $1,000. while he himself collected only
from the same items S9,942. Is the difference
between the two sumo in the ltem etc. OF
course, 8s I have not tho official records before
me. cannot tell how much fees were received
for making tax-certifcates. for which the Law
ALLOWS Is cents apiece (seo page $3.50. will
only state that made some $4,000 for tho city
At 125zI cents apiece, as Mr. Burley, the late
Comptroller, will certify to, and judging from
the large l'et advertised, the amount Of fees
from the c:ty and others must havo beon quite
large from this source.
But enough is shown to convince tho careful
reader that Gen. Lieb's arguments as to how
much the county saved under the rule OF the
People's OF Opposition party tall to the ground,
especially when the Board ls compelled to make
an appropriation OF $4,000 besides estimated
receipts Of $40, 900 to provide for the running
expenses Of tue County Clerks Office and Coun-
" Court. Official figures ale stubborn facts
But do assert, based OH an eight-years' expe-
rieuce, that the County Clerks Office should be
self sustaining, and does not require one single
cent, as the law now is, Of an appropriation
to sustain it, md the remedy is simply that the
gentleman who has charge Of the Office shall
not. in the goodness Of Ills heart, permit him.
self to be imposed upou by everybody who
claims that he has done great work for lls
party, and has to be provided for at the expense
Of the county. Then employ none but conpe-
tent clerks to fill the positions and have no more
than there is actually needed far doing all the
work promptly. II the General tries that svs-
tenn for few months I am ea; istied be will
agree that an right. Respectfully,
