CALLEL A FALsEHooD.
Chief Belt Denies That Money Was
Demanded.

In connection with the letter received by
Commissioner Macfarland yesterday signed
by "a Fireman." stating that a fee had
been demanded from each member of the
fire department for having his pay raised
by Congress, The Star received a letter
from Chief Engineer w. It. Belt today, In
which the chief states that the allegation is
a willful and malicious falsehood. and that
If he could find the man who wrote the let
ter he would demand proof and would rec
ommend his removal from the, fire depact-
ment as not being a fit man to associate
with men.
Chief Belt says that the s'firemen's bflr'
was just and meritorious one, and did not
require a lobbyist. Its passage, he says
was owing only to the extra efforts of Com
missioner Mcfarland, the several editorials
and other articles published from time to
time In the local papers, and to the efforts
OF the committee having the bill In charge.

What Truesdell Told Doremus

Mr. Doremus declared that Truesdell had
never told him about paying any money
to George w. Beavers. The witness had
first heard OF the alleged payments, he
added, after the post Office investigation
was started in 1903. He said he recalled
having had nine or ten interviews with post
office inspectors about that time. He de-
MED ever having signed any statement,
either to an inspector or any one else, re-
lating to the affairs of the company
The witness stated that he knew nothing
OF any relations between George r. Green
and George w. Beavers, except that they
were on friendly terms.
He did not know, he asserted of any
agreement between Green and Beavers.
Furthermore, the witness declared that he
had no knowledge whatever of any corrupt
or fraudulent transactions involved in the
sale of the caneeling machines to the gov
eminent.
examination of Mr.. Doremus. The witness
stated that he had never seen any "com-
mission account on the books of the COM
peny. but had heard IT referred to by a
Mr.. Long. who was employed for some
months TO keep the books of the concern.
Long Did Not Remember.
When Mr.. Long was examined he said
he did not remember saying to Mr.. Dore-
mus on certain occasion that the COM

The testimony of Mr.. Doremus on this
point was to the effect that Mr. Long had
mentioned those figures as being contained
In the commission account
The witness denied knowledge of the de-
struction of any books of the company.
He also disclaimed knowing anything con-
corning the alleged manufacture of the
ledger which was offered in evidence for
the purpose OF proving that 1t contained a
misleading record. The witness had seen
Mr.. Green examine the books of the com
pany but once, which was when the ac-
count of TruesdeH was being settled up
after his withdrawal from the business.
Tells of Conversation.
The witness was allowed to tell of a con.
versation he had had with Truesdell in
New York In October. 1905. On that oc-
casion. he said Truesdell had taken him
to task for an alleged injurious reference in
paper purporting to be signed state
ment OF Doremus. The evidence was al
| lowed as bearing on the question of bias.
The witness also said that Truesdell had
! stated to him at another meeting some
months later in New York that Green had
done him wrong, and that he would gel

Most Important Phase.

THE most important phase of the matter,
however, is the improvement in sanitary
conditions which would result. The Anacos-
tia flats are exposed at low tide. and the
marshes which they form are breeding
places for MOSQUITOES and lodging places
for sewerage and filth and of disease-breed-
ing germs. The appearance of the flats at
low tide is unsightly, and the doors from
them are disagreeable. and the situation as
a whole, Is becoming worse, and the size of
the flats and the extent Of the marshes are
increasing. while the flow of tide water is
decreasing.
THESE conditions form a very serious
menace to the health and comfort of the
residents. and also to the development of
this section of the city. and to less extent
of the whole District of Columbia Early
action by Congress toward adopting a pro-
ject for the Improvement of these flats is
therefore recommended by the Commits
sioners''

model. He was not directly connected. he
stated, with the manufacture of the ma

capacity in constructing the set referred to
of model No. 2.
Attorney Thurston next questioned the
witness In reference to remuneration for
ms services In connection with the opera
hon or the concern. He declared he had

Doremus Nlanufacturiny Company or the
Doremus Machine Company Neither had

Old people often make the mistake
q coddling themselves too much. says
q physician in What to Eat. Thus
they cause a weakening of the vital
forces before the advance Of age has
done so. Nature never intended that
q man shodld be put into a dollhouse
at sixty and kept there as a delicate
plant. Too much solicitude about the
health Of such a person may be the
actual IL Of death. The vitality
of the person may be somewhat lessen
ed at sixty. but the man OF woman
whose health has received a fair
amount Of attention Is not by any
means ready to be shelved at that age.
