THE NEWSSTAND DEADBEAT.
He Is not o Very Serious Offender, but
he Makes the Attendant Tired.

"We're overrun with that class Of CUSTOM"
the attendant at a newsstand in an uptown
hotel gloomily remarked the other night as
man who had been perusing sporting paper
for half an hour folded itup and quietly walked
away. 'They come here and treat our stock in
trade as il it were provided for the public con-
venience instead Of being for sale for the profit
of the proprietor"
"Don't you do anything to break up the prac-
tice?" The STAR reporter asked.
Eyes, we used to have signs posted on the
wall and distributed on the papers on the coun-
ter, but they didn't seem to do any good. All
sorts of men come along. pick up paper after
paper, read what they want in them, and then
walk away without buying anything. Custom
ers of the stand we don't mind, but it CRATES on
q man to have the lobby loafers, who never
have a cent to spend, get all the choicest read
ing matter going free of cost. We don't hesi-
tate te speak to these people il we can catch
them alone, but the trouble is good customer
is usually standing around at the same time,
and if we spoke to the dead-beat the customer
would be more apt to take it to himself and get
offended than the man We were hitting at. The
latter would probably put down the paper and
walk away, and come again tomorrow Just as
if nothing had happened. It's strange how
mean some men can be for few cents. There
are plenty of men who like to read the New
York papers, but instead Of buying them in the
morning and paying five cents for them, wait
until night, when the boys who got stuck are
offering them for a cent piece. The men who
do this aren't hard up, either. OF course" the
attendant continued, after changing s5 bill
given him by man who purchased two-cent
stamp, "a good many men come here,
glance at the illustrated papers, read little in
a newspaper or two, and go off, entirely uncon-
scious that they have been doing anything out
of the way, and with not the slightest intention
Of dead-heatinp Rut it'a a nuiaance all ha
same. and I'd like to find way to break it up"

send warned OrBrien to keep Q sharp watch for
delinquencies. It was o rule to employ young
men az inspectors who could stand the bad air
Of the tunnel. He did not deem IL advisable
to employ q mason in the gangs as inspector,
but tried TO find men whom he could trust.
Masters was
TIE FIRST INSPECTOR DISCHARGED on ACCOUNT
or BAD WORK.
Then Perkins, who took his place, was al
lowed to resign because Lieut.. Townsend did
not consider him competent. Lucas was the
next one. Lieut.. Townsend said that he has
always hada vague feeling Of suspicion against
Lucas, but never found any bad work or indi-
necessary to reduce the force he laid Lucas of.
Lucas soon after got into quarrel with Kirlin
and witness took advantage of that fact to give
Lucas his discharge.
Lieut.. Townsend saw the Kendall brothers
charges when they appeared in the newspapers
and wrote TO them to ask them for particulars,
but received a reply from Hunter, their law
yer, declining to give any information except
to an investigating committee. Witness then
came to the conclusion that the Kendall's were
engaged in Matchmaking scheme. He tele-
graphed to Maj. Lydecker, who was then alb
sent from the city, and received an answer to
investigate the work in the tunnel. As the
space was so great, and he had no positive
data TO proceed upon, he did nothing until
Maj Lydecker's return, when he continued the
to in his report to Maj. Lydecker, submitted in
evidence before the court.
McNamaras work did not show
THE FRAUD SHOWN BIZ o'BRIENs WORK.
It seemed careless, but with no indications to
prove that he was in collision with anybody.
Lucas work showed bad spots, but was greatly
better after O'Brien had come into the tunnel
The inspectors and sub-inspectors, said Lieut.
Townsend In reply to Gen. Ruger, we're ap-
pointed by Major Lydecker upon witness rec
ommendation. All but one were 80 appointed,
Masters being the exception. The specifca-
tions for the last contract were not printed, but
the chief inspector was given q copy, which he
showed and read to the new men as
they came into the tunnel. At one
time the witness came to the conclusion
that the work Of mixing the mortar on top was
not being properly done, and recommended
the appointment of additional inspectors to re-
main on the surface for the purpose Of looking
after the brick and the mortar. These were
duties Of the sub-inspectors who were at work
below, and could only give matters above their
attention at long intervals. Lieut.. Townsend
said that he never saw or heard of any grout
being used in the tunnel
At 1890 Q recess Of an hour was taken.
