EXPERTS TESTIFY
At PUBLIC HEARING.
Wide Variance in the Estimates of
the Work Done for Department
of Public Buildings.

The second chapter in the investiga-
tion of the public buildings department.
which is being conducted by the joint
committee on accounts OF the city coun-
cil was evolved last evening, I'm the Mu-
nicipal Court room, City Hall, when more
estimates on the value OF work done
were furnished.
As at-ti'e- first meeting. there was a
wide difference in the figures of the bills
brought against the city and the figures
given by the experts called as witnesses.
and in some cases there was much diff
ference between the figures OF the ex-
perts.
Franklin T.. Owen, Esq, looked after
the interests of Supt. Mansfield, and City
Solicitor Colwell conducted the case for
the committee.
The first witness was Edwin @. Pen
nlman. who was unable 20 appear at the
first meeting, and. after he had been
sworn, he was questioned in relation TO
the work at the Broad Street school
house.
JOB WAS WORTH SIS.
lie testified that he saw "a doorway
which was cut through a l6-inCh brick
wall. lie examined IL for the purpose OF
giving an estimate of the cost of the
work and also In regard To the character
of the work. II the work had been done
properly and well IL would porbably have
cost sl5. A mason and "A helper ought 10
have done the job In two days.
In cross-exa mination Mr.. Penniman
said he based his estimate on being able
10 do the work without any interference.
City Auditor Chase was then called in
regard to bill for work I'm the Elmwood
Avenue school. The bill announced TO $3.50
and the work done was cutting a door
way through partition. w. ~. Chadsey
& Co. did the work and two masons were
employed four days each and a helper
four days. The masons were paid 81 60
day and the helper s2.25.
Mr.. Penniman testified that the Job
was done better than that at the Broad
Street school, but he thougiG"S SIS ought
to cover the expense. One mason and a
helper ought 10 have done the work I'm a
day and a half az the most.
James &. Peck said he had examined
the Elmwood Avenue school at the re-
quest OF the committee and he estimated
the work at sl5 The figure included the
cost of material furnished.
THE ESTIMATES DIFFERED
In cross-examination witness said that
not more than two tubs of mortar and
about 300 bricks would be needed
Charles v. Pierce, OF East Providence
testified that In his opinion SS.35 would
have been a fair price for the work done
at the Elmwood Avenue school. and he
