Richard Czeronky the young Ger

who at the age of eighteen, can
arouse the unqualified enthusiasm of

Summoned before the senate this
afternoon to explain alleged blum
ders" that are said to have been made
in the estimates on construction
work at the new territorial prison
structure at KAihi-kai. Charles X.
Forbes, superintendent of public
works. made allegations against Rip
ley e Davis, architects, that t4Fned
the session into one of the most stir
ring yet seen b. the present legisla-
ture. -.
Picks Out Many Flaws
Outlined briefly Forbes allegations
were these: That the prison plans,
drawn by the architectural firm in
1914, were incapable of being carried
out In construction work; that the es-
innate submitted by the firm for the
work was too short by tens of thou
sands OF dollars; that the architects
consented to an allowance of approx
mately $1,000 from the first charge o.
$4,000 for the re-designing found ne
cessary In the territorial office; that
the wall as designed by the architects
was only four inches at the top and
16 inches at the bottom and was to
set but few inches beneath the soil
Forbes said the acceptance Of the
plans dated back to the time when
Marston Campbell was superintendent
of public works and that Governor
Frear had approved their acceptance.
1T vas impossible tc stop payment
for them" he said, although the
company agreed to dedact from their
bill for our work of redesigning the
structure. This came to q deduc-
ton Of approximately $4,000 and We
still owe them about $500
Building on Estimate Impossible
The prison could never have been
built upon the estimate OF the archi.
tect," Forbes declared time and again.
Il questioned the policy of paying the
architect anything Tor. the plans, but
was informed that they had been &C
cepted. At no time cid the firm OBJ
