HILL HELD FOR TRIAL
Subordinate Says Philadelphia Of
fciaJ Ordered "FGIe' Entries.

Philadelphia June 21-On charges of forgery
and OF falsifying statements. John w. Hill. for
nler chief of the Filtration Bureau. at a salary
Of $4,000 a year was to-day held by Magistrate
Isenbrown in $500 bail for trial. Mr.. Hill re-
signed week ago.
Several witnesses were heard before the magis-
trate but the only important testimony pre-
sented was that of Frederick Schaffhauser. a
discharged emnloye of the Filtration Bureau.
The testimony referred to two contracts awarded
TO Daniel J. McNichol, for making excavs'-
tionS for water pipes and the other for laying
pipe. The contract for the excavations amounted
to S1:D0O0 and that for laying the pipe was for
S460.000. There was supplemental contract to
the last for $4,000
ScEaffhauser testified that. after the work on
the excavations had been completed there re-
mained nearly $1,000 of the appropriation. He
stated that Chief Hill told him he thought the
$1,000 ought to go to the contractor. Acting on
instructions, he added 1t to his report as pock
excavation charges After he had made the false
entry. Schafhauser said, Chief Hill told him to
scratch il out, as the Director of Public Works,
Mr. Haddock, would not stand for it" Later
this record was destroyed by Chief Hill and a
new made out containing the charge for
additional excavations, for which the surplus
$1,000 was paid
To show how this was brought about, counsel
for the prosecution offered letters from Nc
Nichol to Chief Hill asking for additional
allowance his contract because of Increased

rector Haddock recommending the payment. ana
the third from Director Haddock to Hill author

Concerning the contract for the laying of
water pipe. Schaffhauser said that under the
direction of Mr.. Hill. he had added to his month
" statement charges for excavations that had
never been made.
,Ex-Judge Gordon. for the prosecution. stated
that he had not attempted to show all of the
criminal acts of Chief Hill, but that he merely
desired to make out in the present in

would be further disclosures.
