PERD|DO WHARF
COMPLETED
At LAST
Big Structure, Which Was
Badly Damaged by Storm,
Has Been Rebuilt.

The work of rebuilding the wood
work portion of Perdidc wharf, which
was demolished by the September
hurricane, has at last been completed
and the long wharf is again in ser.
vice. Numerous vessels are now
moored along side the docks taking
on cargoes of lumber.
The rebuilding of this wharf was
one of the largest tasks undertaken
as a result of the visit Of the storm
All of the piling, timber and steel
rails had to be replaced, both upon
the main wharf and L, and in all
about 1900 feet of wharf had to be
rebuilt
This work was commenced imme.
diately after the storm by employees
of the P. & p road. and was pushed
steadily ahead until now It is in bet
ter condition than before the storm.
The portion of the main wharf de.
stroyed amounted to about 1,200 feet
with tracks, while the entire L OF
LOCO feet was carried away

.PROGRESSOF THE
SEWERAGE
WORK
Is Not Satisfactory to the
Bond Trustees, Who
Discuss Matter.

The progress being made in the in
stallation of the sewerage system is
not satisfactory to the, Board of Bond
Trustees, and for two hours yester-
day afternoon the members of that
board discussed the question in all of
its phases. The board is not at all
satisfied with the amount of work
accomplished in the time consumed,
and demands are being made upon
the contractor for better results, as
the board does not desire to have the
city torn up during the summer sea
son.
While there has been considerable
work done in placing the sewers, no
work at all has been done on the
storm drainage system which is an
entirely separate system. The mem
bers of the board think that the con-
tractor should have some of this
work also accomplished.
The forces of men employed in this
work are now centered in the down
town district, and in some sections
very slow progress is being made on
account OF many obstacles encoun-
tered, and especially so in the west
ern section of the city.
1t was stated yesterday afternoon
that there seemed TO De an ample
supply of material ON hand for the
work to be rushed. and also that
other firms in need Of labor seem to
be securing all they desire.

this has not been done, as the con-
tractor is to furnish tie necessary
bond for the faithful performance of
the work before the signatures of the
city officers are attached.
1t is probable that the bond will
be furnished at an early date, and
after the contract is signed the Bond
Trustees win notify the contractor
when the city is ready for the work
of demolishing the old building to
commerce. Before this can be done
the cells and equipment in the pres
emit Jail mus be moved to the build
ing on Zarragossa street.
This work will not require much
time, as the building which is to
serve as police station during the
time that the old one is being demol.
ished and the new one constructed,
has been prepared to some extent.
The upstairs of the building will
be used as a court room and offices
for the recorder and marshal. and
down stairs will be utilized for the
Office of the turnkey and cells for
prisoners.

~ Associates Press.

New York, Mar. 15.-Dramatic was
) the court scene in the Thaw trial with
Hummel. the debarred lawyer, on the
stand to-day giving evidence 10 show
that Evelyn Nesbit did rot tell Harry
Thaw in Europe that Stamford White
had mistreated her as she alleged he
did in her direct testimony.
Attorney Delmas. for defense
fought the admission or THIS evidence,
Justice Fitzgerald ruled that, admit
ting the proposition of counsel and
client, Mrs. Thaw had herself waived
the professional privilege by taking
the stand early in the case and giving
her version of what happened In
Hummel's office.
Attorney Delmas, on cross exam
tnation, made the witness confess to
his legal and professional wrong do
tngs. which he did almost heroically.
Jerome got into the evidence an
afidavit made by Miss Nesbit OF tho
ksl'AS Of Thax,s haztkan .har1in Europe
because she refused 20 sign papers
stating that she had been Grugged and
ruined by White.
Delmas interposed an objection and
took exceptions to nearly every ques-
ton Jerome asked, but wes overruled
by the court
Hummel told the complete story of
the AFFIDAVIT; that later when Miss
Nesbit called for the original he re-
fused to surrender it and advised
White and arranged for photograph
ic copy which was now in possession
OF the state.
Abraham Snydecker. one of Hum
mers clerks, testified to Witnessing
Miss Nesbit's signature to the affida-
Wit after it was typewriter.
During the morning session Jerome
completed the examination of the
states six experts, from all or whom
he received answers to his hypothetic
question and that of defense that
Thaw knew what he was doing at the
time of the shooting and that his act
was wrong.
Jerome announced when he had
finished with Hummel the prosecution
would rest. Delmas answered that
the defense would not rest and init
mated that, experts would be called
for surrebuttal. Adjournment was
taken until Monday.
