WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.-"You're d liar
and you know it," was the startling
exclamation which tell from the lips of
Representative Amos j. Cummings, of
New York, at the capitol to day. The
remark was addressed to j. Hale Sypher,
a former Representative in Congress
from Louisiana, and now prac ticing
attorney in this city. The scene was
the room of the naval affairs committed
The subject before the committee was
resolution introduced in the House by
Holman, of Indiana, on Decem Der 18th
last which set forth the fact that more
than 81 900. 900 had been paid out to
contractors engaged in the building OF
Varships for premiums; that the ships
were so built as to secure higher speed
than was required by the contract to
thereby permit the contractor to earn
the extraordinary and unjust premiums.
and therefore that the committee on
naval affairs was instructed to investi
gate the whole matter thoroughly and
TO learn specially whether through the
collision of any officer Of the Govern
ment these premiums were secured
Sypher appeared before the com IN ttee
in support of the resolution. In the
course Of his argument he openly
charged that the committee had been
formed for the express purpose of aiding
tho contractors in securing these large
premiums.
Sypher, in the course of his remarks,
also insinuated that Cummings, the
chairman Of the committee was also
under the influence of the ship builders.
1t was at this point that the chairman
Indignantly said that Sypher was an
emphatic liar, and CURLY requested
the attorney TO confine his future utter
ances in answering the queries which
the committee propounded to MIN.
This practically closed the session
to-day, which will be continued again
on Monday.
