Despite the incredulity Of the Democrats at head
quarters yesterday, the statement is made by busi-
ness associates of Treasurer Hughes that on Sat
urday last he received check for 100000 from eX-
Senator Clark, and It is further alleged that the
check is in partial recognition of the kindly treat
ment accorded to the Clark delegates from Montana
at the Kansas City Convention, when, it may be
recalled, they seated in preference TO the
Marcus Daily delegates
According to those who have kept close tab on the
Clark-Daly controversy, Richard Croker assured
Clark before the Convention met that If the New
York delegates could do 1t the Clark delegates
would be seated. Then 1t is alleged. scheme was
arranged whereby Senator McCarren. the New
York member of the Committee on Contested Seats,
should vote to seat the DAILY delegates, which he
did. In this way Clark got what he wanted ana
at the same time the record stands that Croker
can point to it and say to the moneyed friends of
Daily that New-York was really in favor of the
Daily people. 1t is alleged, however, that before
Senator McCarren voted for the DAILY delegates the
fact had become generally known that the Clark
delegates would be seated. anyway. $500

REPORT on CENENTS.
RECOMMENDATION OF ACCOUNTS COMMISSION
ERs REGARDING CONCRETE FOUNDA-
TIONS FOR ROADWAYS.

John c. Hertle, Commissioner of Accounts yes
terday made synopsis Of his recent report to the
Mayor giving the result of chemical analysis of
cement by Otto Fl. Klein. the Chief Engineer and
S. F. PecKham, the chemist in charge of the lab
oratory. This report, the result of years work
embodies the physical tests and the chemical
analysis of thirty-four samples of cement. Seven
teen samples OF domestic Portland and thirteen
Rosendale samples were obtained direct from the
manufacturers. with the knowledge that they were
to be used for making a comparative test. This
undertaken because Of complaints about the
alleged poor quality of cement used in concrete
foundations for roadways. which the Commission
ers previously reported to the Mayor.
According to the report there was found a lack
of uniformity in the chemical composition of the
Rosendale samples. In order that there should be
no charge of favorttism all references manu-
facturers were excluded and there are many
manufacturers OF both kinds of cement in the
country. The report recommends that Rosendale
cements be entirely eliminated from the specihca-
lions in the construction of concrete foundations
for roadways. and the Commissioners say they are
ready to suSstantiate their statements In court
of law.
Further organizations the same subject are
now being made
