Mr. Sheehan was seen late last nigh; in refer
ence to the report made by the Commissioners OF
Accounts He said that not knowing the ful
tenor OF the report he was unable al such late
hour TO go into all the details He said that PRIOR
to becoming "a Commissioner there was only one
Tamfmany Hall Commissioner among tho four
constituting the Board, and some time after be-
coming Commissioner he was made chairman oi
the Committee on Repairs and Supphes Con
siderable Of the repairs and supplies required LOT
the Police Department came before ana WeIe
passed upon by this committee; tnat the persons persons
who had furnished the old Board with supplies
and did the work OF making repairs lOI the De,
partment were qpntnued. as ii was UNDERSTOOD
that the work and the material furnished by them
were satisfactory; that the manner OF giving out
work and furnishing supplies was as foiows'
Requsitons would be made by the dilfereht pre-
cincts showing repairs that were needed ana inc
stationery or other things that were required. and
sent to the requistion clerk: that they wouii
af;erward be presented TO the Committee on IKE
pairs and Supplies. Of which he was chairman
and that in most cases the clerk was directed 70
communicate with the persons engaged in that
kind OF work and furnishing such material as was
required, to get bids from them: that frequently
the acquisitions very small. being consider
ably under $780, some as low as 81.
Mr.. sheehan said that he himself, after being
connected with the Department for time.
started new system, and that a the beginning
OF each year ne required the clerks in charge OF
the stationery department 10 prepare for him
yample Of the stationery and the quantity and
quality that would be required for the year, as
near as he could estimate. and ask for bids; that
bids were received in accordance with this plan.
snS the BID OF Martin 3. Brown was the lowest;
that thereafter during the year all supplies OF
the kind or character referred 10 were furnished
at the prices named in the bid
Referring TO that portion OF the report which
states that Mr. Sneehan admitted that the In
debtedness for supplies was incurred during each
OF the years 1892. 1893 and 1884 IN excess OF the
appropriation for sub years with his knowl-
edge" Mr. Shcehan characterized the statement
a. being absolutely untrue. .
1T occurred frequently" Mr.. Sneehan added.
"and has occurred for the last twenty years.
and likewise occurs in all departments, that
bills In excess Of the amount that might be APP
