MORE ABOUT THE IRREGULARITIES IN THE PUBLIC
WORKS DEPARTMENT.
Further details of the extraordinary misman-
agement of the Public Works Department are
given to-day. 1t is proved that notwithstand-
ing the law Of 1880, requiring reduction OF
ten per centin the aggregate compensation paid
persons employed by the department., Mr..
Thompson has actually increased such compen-
saton twenty per cent. His utter failure
to take any steps to check the fraudulent
unbalanced bid system is cOnclusively shown,
and the falsehood contained in statement
made by him to the contrary is proved. He
has advanced prices to fayorites and gives out
orders to them for large amounts on the $999
system. The various methods Of enriching his
associates at the public expense are mentioned
and also the curious way in which his friends
destroy the records of their business transac'
tiOns with the department.
