company, submitted an affidavit by
James Arkell president OF the Occident
company, giving an entirely different
version of the negotiations from that
of the Dock Commissioner. William l..
Wemple. counsel for the Hudson Cor
poration. insisted that his company was
the legal lessee Of the pier after May
! and wanted to take possession and
begin business at that time.
Commissioner Hubert sworc in his
affidavit that he was unable to get any
definite offer from the Occident people,
who always offered the excuse that they
had no authority to make an offer
until they had cabled the Bristol City
Line Offices in Bristol. England. the
owner of the Occident company.
Contradicted Commissioner
Mr.. Arkell fatty denied this and de-
clared that tho Commissioner had upon
one occasion offered to recommend q re-
newal of the lease if the company
would pay $4,000 rental. The definite
offer of $4,000 was made later By the
Occident company.
The Dock Commissioner admitted
that he had made an appointment with
the Occident company representatives
for April l, but had not kept it because
his secretary. Joseph a. Boylan. had
postponed the appointment unknown
to him. The Occident people contended
they were ready to make the definite
offer Of 100000 at that time.
II censured Mr.. Boyan for doing this
without consulting me- said Commits
sioner Hubert, because l felt | ought
to dispose of the matter on April -
The Commissioner said in his afi-
davit that he asked his secretary twice
the next day if he had heard anything
from Eli J. Blair, counsel for Mr..
Arkell, and was informed that Mr.. Blair
had not communicated with the office.
Then the Commissioner wrote TO the
Hudson Dock and Terminal Corpora
tion and the Sinking Fund Commission
on the same day, Anril 2, informing
them tha. he would recommend the
lease to the Hudson concern.
Mr. Arkell and his counsel appeared
at the Dock commissioners Office on
April 10, the day before the matter
came before the Sinking Fund Commits
sion, and wanted to know what was
"to become Of u.s. The Commissioner
blamed them for not communicating
with him, and said he could do nothing,
as the matter was up to the Sinking
Fund Commi sson.
The hearings before the referee will
begin early next week.
