VERT POOR CEMENT
Said to Have Been Used in Construct
in" Mononjrahela Dam No. 7.
EVIDENCE FOR COMMONWEALTH.
The Testimony in Kebnttal Will be Heard
This Morning.
ACGDMEKTS TO BE MADE NETTTUiSSDAY
The evidence yesterday in the case of the
condemnation of Dam Uo. 7, was given for
the Commonwealth and was to show that
the lock is not so valuable as when just
built. The Commonwealth also tried to
chow that it was not well constructed and
that cement used was of a poor quality.
Eudence in rebuttal was beard and more
will follow to-day.
Engineer Harlow, who had charge of the
construction of lock and dam No. 7, testified
that the cost of building the lock was about
the same to-day as when it was built There
were some items, however, on the bill of
costs that the witness thought were too high.
C. J. McDonald, the contractor who built
lock and dam No. 7, said the wort could be
done to-day for the same money as in 1884.
The witness did not think that age improved
a dam. The witness did not think the
settling of the wall affected it to any extent.
Contractor Archibald stated that he made
an examination of the lock four years ago
and plumbed the wall, and he found that
there was certain bulging and leaning out.
Be also found certain cracks of an inch and
two inches, but they did not amount to
much. The witness thought, however, that
they would depreciate the value of the lock
and dam about 25 per cent.
SAID TO BE IX BAD CONDITION.
Reese Lindsey, contractor on the stone
work, examined the walls of Lock No. 7
about three weeks ago and found them in a
very bad condition. In his opinion the ex
terior masonry work was of an inferior
character.
J. AY. Arras, who is engaged in Govern
ment work under Colonel Merrill, exam
ined the walls of the docks and discovered
cracks and bulgiug out. The wall was
mostlv damaged at the lower end. He did
not think, however, that the wall was
greatlv impaired.
Edwin F. Smith testified that he had ex
amined the lock wall and found it cracked
and showed signs of a bad loundation. The
witness' inip-ession was that the wall had
insufficient width or foundation. Mr.
Smith said he took some sounding and
found little or no foundation. He also ex
amined the cement and found it bad, au an
alysis of the cement showed it to be
more of a hydraulic lime than
hydraulic cement. The tail wall on the
land side will lnve to be rebuilt, and it
would take about $7,500 to make the lock as
good as it was hen built. The dam is a
double sloped one liuiit in the old style. The
witness examined the jbutment wall on the
other side ot the river and found it in pretty
good sliase, but he thought the dam was not
quite long enough, and should have been
abont75ieet longer. The statement that
any mechanical structure improves with age
was a new theory to the witness. His eii
perience was that it deteriorated and dams
were no exception to the rule. The w'tness
did not think the dam would cost any more
to-day than it did in 1884.
BDFI-AI.O CEJtEM CONDEMNED.
"William Martin, civil engineer at the
Davis Island dam, stated that he had some
experience with Buffalo cement and found
that it swells. On cross-examination, Mr.
Martin admitted that the cement he used
had been condemned.
At this point the Commonwealth rested,
and Mr. Shiras called Colonel T. P. Koberts
in rebuttal. Colonel Koberts stated that ne
bad used Buffalo cement on some bridge
work on the Allegheny river; also
on some work done for the
Pittsburg and Western Railroad and has
known the cement to be extensively used,
and so far as lie knew it gave perfect satis
lactiou. The witness also experimented
with the cement and kept it in water for
over a month, but never knew it t o swell.
Colonel Koberts also made an examinatiou
of lock No. 7 and while it was slightly out
of dumb, it does not in any way injure the
walk The witness never heard anything
against Buffalo cement until Colonel Mer
rill condemned it. His own experience did
not show it to oe a bad cement.
As there is some other rebuttal evidence a
session of court was ordered for this morn
ing when the case wili be finished up. By
common consent the arguments will be
made on Tuesdav.

Kansas City People, He Says, Are Trying to
Divert Attention.
A telegram was received by The Dis
tatch last night stating that charges had
been made against Thomas Mellon, the
banker, in the Kansas City boodle investi
gations. A reporter called at the residence
of Mr. Mellon anil be said that be had not
heard of the charges, but if any were maxle
they came from those who wanted attention
directed from the real charges.
Mr. Mellon says he will go to Kansas
City in the spring, if his health permits,
to see that the matter is thoroughly investi
gated. He will probably appear before the
grand jury, when in that city, to press his
charges in the inclined plane bribery case.
