Afternoon session.
~ nnAnnrrr

W. j. BRODRICK
Testified that Hall confessed to him,
when he took him to task upon his
failure to meet his obligations to Mott,
that he had ''prevaricated. He (HalD
had not meant that she had the money
in the bank" but that money was in
the bank" Witness asked Mr.. Hall if
that was not the statement he made to
him, and Mr.. Hall repeated that he
said: 1.-THE money was in the bank.
In answer to Mr.. Williams, Mr.. Brod.
rick stated that when he drew the paper
to the effect that Hall had not paid
Mott any money for the purpose of cor
rupting members of the Board of Su-
pervisors, instead of drawing it in the
way Mott had directed, that it was an
oversight. He did not at the time APP
preciate the difference.
In answer to Judge Fitzgerald When
Hall came to you to go to see Hargitt,
did he name to you the friend who had
suggested that you be sent?
He was very mysterious about it; he
referred to ''friend;" am in the insur.
ance business. | am president of one
street railway companies and of an in
surance association of companies, di-
rector of the City Water Company and
q director and stockholder in number
of other corporations.
In answer to MIR. Williams-How
came you, after seeing the original con.
tents, to put Bouton's name in the
paperl
Because Mott said scandal was being
circulated connecting Bouton's name
"a. I.l AoI ,x,ttb
about the matter; had no reason for in
sorting Bouton's name except that Mott
asked me to do SO.
MR.. WILLARD.
Am contractor and builder; had a
talk with Mr.. T. d. Mott about the Jail
contract; Mr.. Young asked me to see
Mr.. Mott and ask him to use his influ-
enee with the Board to secure the adop-
ton of his plans. Mr. Mott said be
could not do it, "a he was working in
the interest of MIR. Hall. This was be.
fore the plans were adopted.
This closed the testimony.
Mr.. White suggested IL would be well
for the Board to hold what might be
termed an executive session" to con-
slider the matter. From Mr.. Halls own
statement it would appear that he had
entered into an agreement corrupt in its
nature to prevent the Board from throw
ing out his plaps. The offense was OF 80
repulsive a nature that it was evident he
was unsuited to perform any work of
that character.
Mr.. Williams asked if there was an
intention to argue the question whether
or not the plans should be thrown out
President Macy said the Board did
not wish argument.
Mr.. Williams said the plans could not
be legally thrown out.
District Attorney Holton said that was
a matter as to which the Board would
assume all responsibility.
