THE BROOKLYN NAVY YARD IN.
VESTIGATION.

NEW YORK, May 9.-The session of the
Navy Yard Investigating Committee at the
AstOr House yesterday was chiefly devoted
to hearing the testimony of M. John Roach,
the well-known ship builder and contractor.
The direct examination of this witness,
watch was commenced at 10 o'clock, lasted
until i:30, and was conducted by Congress-
man Willis, the chairman of the com ttee.
Mr.. Roach gave q detailed account OF his
transactions with the government during
the past ten years, denying in toto the
ment officials, and challenging the COM
mittee to ind any flaw In his conduct as
business man or q citizen. He showed that
there was no truth In the insinuations that
had been made In reference TO his acquiring
money OF these contracts by
"CREEPING" BIDS,
q. e., by brtbing the government oficials
whose duty Ii was TO open the bids TO in
crease the amount OF his own bid to within
q fraction Of the next one above it, He said
the accusation that in putting her new en-
CINE into the Trenton he had injured that
ship ey cutting away the wood work of her
stern, was false and incredulOus. He claimed
that everything throughout these transac-
lions was fair and above board, and that he
had
NOTHING TO CONCEAL
from the investigators or the public. He adj
mitted that he had sometimes paid political
assessments. On one occasion he contributed
towards the election OF Governor Hoffman,
and he had generally given as much In this
way to one party as 20 the other. The charge
that he had sold q floating derrick, which
cost him &25 900, TO the government for
$50, 900 was as unfounded as any of the other
allegations against him.

THE HILL GATE EXPLosToN-The Prep.
oratioslS for the BlO1ciRg Oga Of the East Rivers
Bottom While waiting for orders 20 charge
the borings for the final blast at Hell Gate,
Capt Heuer is experimenting with various
kinds OF cartridges sent for trial. The Nul-
can, the dynamite, gun cotton, and the Wig
orite, a naphthaltne product, have all been
tested near the river on tie Astoria shore,
the mode being TO bore from y 10 IS feet Ia
the rocks, at an angle of IS degrees, and then
TO load with the explosive TO be tested. The
relative destructive power OF the various
agents employed may be judged by the great
heaps OF broken rock that mark the spots
where the blasts have been made. IL Is prob
able that the choice of explosives will lie
between gun cotton and dynamite. Car
tridges OF the latter are being perforated
preparatory 20 immersion, TO test their im-
perviousness TO water. It is thought that
the ely cerine will be washed out OF the ordI-
nary dynamite cartridge. IN which event
every cartridge would have 10 be protected
by an air tight metallic case. Capt. Heuer
Will require about six weeks for the charg-
ing; for, 70 guard as much rs possible against
accident, only few men at time will be
employed In this dangerous work. IL Is esti-
mated that at about 500 of the plugs the
water pressure will be as great as Is pounds
10 the square inch, and IL will require Eve
men TO hold scantling in position. The
chief danger is that this tremendous water
pressure may produce a premature explo-
sion OF some OF the cartridges.-tN. y. Ss9a, 8.

There Is superabundance of coal on the

about as discouraging as we have ever

last year, an increase of IS 333 tons. The
quantity OF bituminOus coal sent t. market
for the week was 66,0i9 tons, against 1916

crease of 1861 tons. The whole bituminous
tOnna2e from the beginning of the coal year
is 9C0, 553 tons, against 901 AT tons in CORE
