Agent Gibson Tells How He Stands in
the Matter.
In relation to the advices from Washing
ton which have been received here about
the proposed postoffice site on Mission
street, Treasury Agent Gibson has been
heard from. His particular grievance is
against statement Of Harvey Brown.
special agent of the Government, who in
Washington Interview stated that the rejec-
tion Of the Seventh and Mission site would
result in lawsuit against the nation.
II do not believe that any such action
will be TAKEN" said Mr.. Gibson last night.
"and will add that it is. in my opinion. a
mere bluff for the purpose of influencing
the people. Mr.. Harvey came to me a fe w
days ago and brought bundle of affidavits.
WHICH he asked me TO forward secretly to
Washington. l told him / would do SO
with pleasure. but as they were to 90
through me l would have to know their
contents. The result was that they were
not filed with me, and was Informed later
that he had gone to consult an attorney"
Mr. Gibson also stated that a number of
propositions had been made to him TO eyade
the matter, and that he had, of course, re-
jected all.
