payment TO Mr. Nixon OF 100000 in cash or Its
equivalent He Indignantly spurned the proffer,
and with difficulty restrained from as
saulting the man who tried To bribe him. The
story which comes to The Tribune from ap
parently entirely credible sources. is fol-
lows:
Just after Mr.. Nixon was appointed by Mayor
Van Wyck president of the new East River
Bridge Commission, in iS9S the question of
the kind of steel to be used in the new bridge
came up for settlement. Chief Engineer Leffert
l.. Buck backed by the opinion of the leading
bridge experts, decided that acid" steel should
he used. This is more expensive than other
grades of bridge steel, but is of greater tensile
strength and Mr. Buck insisted that ii should
be used. With the appointment of Mr.. Nixon
parties interested in having the specifcat tions

Mr.. Nixon who, as Richard Crokers personal
friend. considered "reachable"
An old cassmate at Annapolis il is said.
was chosen to do the dirty work He called
IN Mr.. Nixon at his home, and during the even
ing conversation drifted quite naturally to the
bridge contract and the kind of steel that was
to go into the structure. Mr.. Nxon's old class
mate proposed to him that certain grade of
steel would answer all purposes for the bridge.
and that if CsAf Engineer Buck could he over
ruled it would be either directly or Indirectly,
feet, Nh Nixon is alleged to have said:
"-." calling him by name. you have in
suited me. | never thought you could think me
capable of taking a bribe. l ought to knock
you down. I'll let the insult go because it may
be that you under the influence of liquor and
don't know what you have said"
Then the old friends parted enemies.
When Mr.. Nixon seen by Tribune
porter and informed that the incident had been
called To the attention of The Tribune, he was
greatly agitated
Il didn't suppose any one knew a word about
that" said he. How could you have learned il?
No it is not true that l was offered a bribe-
that is il never got a downright proffer OF
money. l much prefer that you say nothing
about the matter"
Mr.. Nixon lost time in assuring Chief En-
gineer Buck that he thoroughly concurred in
his judgment 20 acid steel for the bridge,
and that, no matter what he might hear as ru-
mors, he could depend upon it that he would not
be overruled Afterward Mr.. Nixon frequently
asserted that Mr. Buck the most accom-
plished bridge builder in the world.
That was not the only occasion when Mr..
Nixon. because of his Croker affiliations was
..approached' by men with unworthy motives
II is believed 10 have been a steadily increasing
accumulation of these exceedingly mOrtifying
experiences-mortifying To an honest man like
Mr. Nixon-that made him absolutely disgusted
with his political experiment as leader of a
corrupt organization.

Cox said:

He took part with Pretorius in driving the English out of Blcemfon- tein in 1S4S. and had his farm and prop erty cOnfiscated after Sir Harry Smith had reversed the situation by forcing the old Beer warrior back again across the Naal. The De ia Keys sought q new home in the west of the Transvaal, where Jacob Hendrick spent his early life. The general is man over the medium height sineWy i1 build. and remarkable for his quiet. dignifiei manner. He has deep-set. dark eyes, prominent Roman nose, and a large, dark brown beard. giving to his face strong. handsome and patrician eX- pression.
 He was born of fighting family. and has had the experience and training of campaigns in conflicts with hostile Kaffir tribes. His first command was in the war which the English melted the Basutos to wage against the Free State in the early sixties. when he was quite young. These experiences quali- fed him for a prominent military posi- tion when the present war broke out, and he was unanimously elected to the command of the Lichtenburg burghers
 
 column.
 He represented his native district in the Nolksraad for ten years, and was consistent supporter of the Joubert. as against the Kruger following in that assembly. He favored a large fran chise concession to the uitlanders as d means of averting a conflict with Eng 1 land. but soon saw that a demand fol political reforms was only d pIeteX' 1 for precipitating a conflict. He was l one of the most ardent advocates of a. attacking against defensive military i policy when England forced a resort tC hostilities upon the republic.
 Like General Cronje he carries rc weapons in the field.
