WITHOUT FOUNDATION
The Report Of Removal q Ruund
House to New lbefio.
Prominent Railroad Officials State
That There IS no Intention
Of Taking Any Change.

In order to settle positively all
the irresponsible talk about the
round house and division being
moved from Lafayette to New
iberia, which has been going on
for some time to the detriment of
Lafayette, the editor of this pa
per called on Assistant Superin-
tendent G. G. Mallard in regard
to the matter. Mr.. Mallard was
most courteous, and when ques-
toned about the dispatch to the
Picayune from Franklin, stated
that there was absolutely no foun-
dalton for the statement made,
and that furthermore he knew of
no intention on the part of the
Southern Pacific management to
make any change.
The editor also interviewed L.
G.. Cox, tax agent for the South
ern Pacific, who was here last
week, and he also stated in posi-
tive terms that the Road had no
intention of making the change.
He also added that only recently
the division had been moved
from Orange to Echo to avoid the
anomalous condition of having a
division runOver from one road to
another involving two different
sets of officers. The L. w. ends
at Echo and has its own officers,
the road on to Houston is a sep
arate road and has it's officers.
The change to Echo was made in
order to have the men on each
road altogether under it's own Of
ficers. Now" said Mr. Cox, 1T
would be absurd to create the
same state of affairs, which has
just been corrected, by moving
the. end of division to New Ibe-
ria"
To further make a finality of
the matter, Real Estate Agent
j. G. Nickerson and the editor
each addressed a letter to Gen
eral Freight Agent Thornwan
Fay. inclosing the Picayune spec
ial from Franklin, and requested
Mr.. Fay to kindly state whether
there was any truth in the spec,
ial. W. print his letters below,
which are sufficiently positive
and emphatic:

DRAGNET INVESTIGATION
STILL HOLDS THE BOARDS


The plans and specifications show
that Engineer Maxon is to pass upon
the character of the work done and
that the sewer inspectors are to re-
port to him concerning any defective
work or irregularities. And it is the
duty of Engineer Maxon to report such
Irregularities to the city council. 1t
was further shown by the defense that
Eichenberger was only an employee of
the city, that he did not take any oath
of office and gave no bond for the
faithful performance of his duties. The
attorneys for the defense argued that
one of the ESSENTIAL qualifications of an
officer is that he takes an oath to sup
port the constitution of the United
States, the state of Idaho and other
wise honestly perform his duties, and
that in this case Eichenberger could
not be denominated an officer in any
sense.
At the opening of the court this
morning the judge made a statement
that the attorneys and press had ex-
pressed that this proceeding had not
been carried on according to legal pro-
ceedure and that certain rights of the
defendant under the law was not be-
ing protected. but that he intended
to proceed with the hearing and con-
slider all testimony offered by the
county attorney whether it pertained
to the guilt or innocence OF the defend
ant or was entirely against somebody
else and that if the defendant was not
found guilty of the offense charged
against him., it might be that he would
be arrested on some other charge. and
it might be that other persons might
be arrested upon charges justified by
the evidence in this hearing that he
would not entertain any more motions
for the discharge of the defendant but
would proceed with the sewer investi-
cation whatever it might be. until the
proper officer for the state closed the
case.
Mr.. Maxon again took the stand and
made Some explanations of his author
ity under the sewer contract to the
effect that he was the sole Judge for
city and that the inspectors were sub
ordinate to him and under his direction
and should have been employed by
him but that the city council took
this authority away from him as we'll
as other rights under the contract.
Attorney Mcdonald was next placed
on the stand and testified that he was
city clerk at the time the sewer con-
tract was let and during the alleged
change of it, but that he did not know
anything, of his personal knowledge.
of any change in the contract That
he merely acted as city clerk in dis
tributing copies of the contract to
prospective bidders after the contracts
had been submitted to the city attor-
ney for his inspection
Mr.. Hobson, foreman for the sewer
contractors. testified that he knew
nothing wherein the contract was not

being carried out by the contractors,
but that the contractors had been in
terfered with by the inspector. He
claimed that usually he could lay from
500 to 1000 feet per day but that I'M
der any of the inspectors here, he
could not lay over four to five hun
dred feet per day, that in one line of
$50 feet under the inspection of Mr..
Pointing, there was a sag of about one
foot at one place caused by the direc-
tons of the inspector and the con-
tractors were obliged to take up the
pipe at this place and relay it. He
said that Mr.. Pointing told him that
when he was put on the sewer as in
spector that he never in his life before
saw sewer under construction and
that he knew nothing about it.
