MUELLER TAKES
STAND TO REPLY
To ALL CHARGES

County commissioners decided Sat
urday afternoon to continue the hear
ing to determine the truth or falsity of
statements affecting he ability and in
tegrity of John W. Mueller as bridge
engineer. Additional testimony will
be introduced Wednesday. AS far as
could be learned, all persons who in
tend 70 testify against Mueller, have
Alvin Threewits. who has information
concerning bridges near Abingdon.
After two days of hearing testi-
mony, during which hearsay and ru-
NOR of any nature whatever was sub
mitted, the only fact bearing directly
upon any irregularity in the conduct of
the office of bridge engineer was in
regard to the contract for the fill for
the temporary bridge, which was tes-
titled to by T. j. Stevens Saturday.
Permits Change in Plans.
Stevens alleged that Mueller in an
oral statement to John Duke, prior to
the letting of the contract, promised
Duke to use cinders for the fill, al
though the specifications called for
earth. Mueller explained and Stevens
agreed with him that cinders made
letter fill than earth, and consequently
the county lost no money in the trans
action, but rather made money through
the fact that the cinders cost only 81
cents a square yard, while bids on
gravel were 80 cents, but Wilfred Jes-
sup, representing Peacock, made the
following statement:
ut is not any concern in this matter
whether the county lost or made mon
ey, but it is the practice of an en-
gineer permitting one contractor to
change specifications through an
agreement prior to the letting of the
contract, which concession is not Civ
en- to the other contractors"
Mueller explained that had he known
cinders were availa BILE for the fill he
would have specified them, and that
it was merely through the enterprise
of Duke that he was granted the con-
cession.
Engineer Mueller will take the stand
in his own behalf Wednesday.
