WASHINGTON, June 19.-Informer Sill
to-day resumed his general narrative to
the congressional investigation commit
tee Of armor-plate frauds at the Carnegie
works. His Identification of specific falsl-
fications in reports presents a startling
array of irregularities. Sill identified Su-
perintendent Kline's handwriting on the
falsified reports, and said W. L. Corris
and G. J.. Craig could identify the writing.
Sill denied that General Superintendent
Schwab's allegation as to a few discon-
tented workmen conspired to iniure the
company. He refuted SchwaBs state
ment that the informers were men who
had come In during the big strike in the
hope of getting enormous wages. Sill said
be was employed in the Carnegie works
before the strike and did not go out.
MIR. Schwab's letter claimed that the
men had purposely made false reports in
order to involve the company in trouble.
Sill denied this and said his reports had
invariably been accurate and had been
manipulated and fslslfed by SuperinGen-
dent Kline. as shown by the identified re-
ports. The witness said that when Kline
treated the coming tower shield or the
New York he sent him SID to stand
guard near the headquarters of the Gov
ernment officers and give signal IL they
put In an appearance. This was done in
order to let Superintendent Kline carry
on an irregular treatment of the plate.
Other instances of watching the Govern
ment officers were recited by Sill.

Department some time ago referred t. the
alleged irregularities as a Matchmaking
scheme of consplring workmen. Sill de-
MED all purposes OF blackmaiI. He said
he had called ON Mr.. Hunsiker, one of Dir.
Tricks associates, and told him the sllega-
lions of conspiracy and blackmail were
unjust and the company ought to make a
statement acQuitting the informers of such
motives or else the men would issue such
a statement. Sill denied having suggested
to Hunsiker that the matter could be
fixed up and that the men had not told
halt what they knew. Hunsiker advised
that the matter be dropped. He also re-
ferred Sill to Frck, who was sick and
could not be seen.
The examination of Sill went over until
