The examination of Inspector Alexander q
Williams was continued before the Lexow com.
mittee yesterday. and will be resumed this
morning. In the afternoon the Inspeoto wa
excused early to permit two witnesses, brothers
named streep, to testify TO the payment Of
$1,000 by one OF the brothers TO Anthony Com,
stock to procure the dismissal of an indlctmen,
In the Court Of General Sessions charging one Of
the brothers with having printed green good
circulars.
II one who Is interested In the study Of meta.
physics and psychic forces had been present
during the examination Of Inspector William
by Mr.. Goff he would have had much TO engag,
his attention. The two men are a. unlike iu
mentality and temperament as they are In
physique. The inspectors physical force wa
very little In evidence yesterday In the long con.
test between him and Mr.. Goff, although he did
once, In threatening manner, recommend
Mr. Gof not to engage In . persona,
alteration with him, and Il was not
his superiority in that respect which
had the interesting and noticeable effect
he produced upon his inQuisitor. Mr.. Con
started out with much vigor and sprightliness
which he maintained for some time without
noticeable diminuton. But before the afternoon
session was quarter Of an hour old he began
to flag. and finally was well nigh prostrated. and
It's quite likely that the student In psychics
would have attributed this result to the re-
peated failures on the part Of the lawyer TO bare
the soul of tho witness. There was q mash
woven OF the threads of q long and stormy
career. which, without any effort on his part
concealed something in or about tho witness
which Mr.. Goff struggled in vain to disclose
But that sort of q thing is not what one goes tos
session of the Lexow committee to report. Still
1t was interesting.
Mr.. Goff's greatest success with the witnes,
was in proving his neglect OF duty in the Eighth
precinct, the old Eighth. then the Tenderloin OF
New York. Tho witness was surprised inN
most Of his untenable positions through the fact
that Mr.. Goff was possessed of the records Of
number Of complaints made against the witness
before the Police Board which do not now ap-
pear on the official records at Police HeadquAr.
ters. Mr.. Goff repeatedly made efforts TO anger
the witness, but succeeded only once-at least
succeeded in making the witness display his
anger but once.
Before the Inspector was called TO tho stand In
the morning. Mr.. Goff called for Capt Meakirn.
He was reported sick and his absence was noted
on the record. Then Capt Washburn was called
and Inspector Williams said that he had re-
ported sick that morning. Next Capt wester.
welt was called and Capt Williams said that
he had reported sick tho night before. This
caused laughter, and Mr.. Con remarked that
II was really painful TO learn how many wit.
nesses on the force had been taken suddenly III
Just before the committee was about 10 adjourn.

Then 1t was IL AS. and Mr.. Goff said: Now,
Inspector Williams" The Inspector appeared
with an armful of books and documents which
he carried to the witness chair. stopping on the
way for short chat with Mr.. Goff. The exam
ination began long way from tho Bowery.

FORGOTTEN CHARGE.
Mr.. Con questioned at some length on this
subject, but got no more admission from the
witness than he had the day before. Then he
started in to rough the witness.'

ment has been charged with more and worse
