should stand upon the record.
Colonel Lawlcss In defense OF the posi-
ton he had taken. assured the commits
tee that he would at the proper time In
troduce witnesses TO prove the charges
he had made against Mr.. Cloves.
In confusion, Colonel Anderson said
that Colonel Lawless was biased by

expression, and Colonel Anderson amend
ed his remarks by saying that counsel was
biased by his client.

There was nothing brought out that
had not been testified to before except
that the witness criticised Mr.. Mercer,
the clerk. saying that he was as guilty
as any other officer, as he was especial
/ ~ employed to overlook the bills.
Mr.. Clowes'said he relied on the verbal
reports Of the superintendent for In
formation regarding the affairs Of the
hospital and that he made no close ex-
animation OF the asylum. He said that
ne did not know that the breakfast Of
the PATIENTS consisted OF bread butter
and coffee.
He said he had not examined the bills
and accounts because he had no time
during the one day month he visited the
institution and that he did not think the
members OF the general board should be
held as responsible for "oversights"a as
regularly paid officers. In his opinion,
he said. the members Of the special
board should receive a salary and give
more attention to the affairs Of the hos
pital.

made for cash. and that there were no

and his examination proceeded.

Witness said the excuse given by the
superintendent for not having put on

board should take three days each month,
witness said, and the members should
be paid for their services just as the

samples.
Witness said that the members Of the
board relied on the superintendent to re-
port any irregularities that existed In the
hospital.
In answer to a question as to exnmina-

that as tile bills went through the hands

were bonded, the members Of the board
