It is said that in presenting their case to the City Council tho Clay people resorted to an old report on the ay stem of the United States Despatch Company, a pooumatic-tube concorn, which they caused to be read betoro tho council in such a mauner that it appeured to be a report upon thy Leako Pneumatic Trans. of Company's system. But, in spite Co this, they fulled to obtain tho necessary permission to iny their aystem through the streets or the city.

Wanamaker Accused of Using His Oficial Powers Improperly, THE LEAKE PNEUMATIC COMPANY CONGRESS TO INVESTIGATE. Charges that the General IA Working for the Clay I'noumatio Syptern and Trying to Koop tho Lonko Company Ont of Philadelphia-Hints that Omelal Influence 'Is to Bo Paid for With the Company's Stock. TO THE WASHINGTON, May Honderthe Committee on and Post Roads, presented in the House to-day a petition from the Leake Pneumatio Transporstation Company which concerns PostmasterGeneral Wanamaker and may mako trouble for him. Tho petition was referred to Mr. committee.

The point of it is that Mr. Wanamaker is charged with using power against the Leako Company in revor of another company operating what known as the Clay system of pneumatio rice. Postmaster John Field, of Philadelpula, is also dragged into the scandal. No names are mentioned in tho memorial prorented do Congress, but the Leake Company's do not hesitate to say that Mr. Wandmaker and others have beon acting untairly them.

Obarges are made, too, that stook has been set asido for the Government officers whose assistanco is sought by the opponents or the Leake Company. The use of pneumatic tubes for conveying mail matter from place to place in largo cities having been urged upon tho Post-Onica Department and the plan being looked upon with favor by the authorities, the Leuke Company set out to introduce their system in Philadelphia between the main post-office, at Ninth and Chestnut streets, and the sub. station, on Chestnut street, below Fourth. In November, 1891, after several conferences with Postmaster-General Wanamaker and Postmaster John Field, of Philadelphia, Mr. Leake was asked by them to put in writing just what his company proposed to do, and also to furnish a report from somo engineer as to the capabilities of the system.

Mr. Leake repliod that As far as tho engineer's report was copcerned, he had no use for it, but if such a thing was required ho preferred that Postmaster Field should select his own engineer to make such report. To this proposition Mr. Field agreed. Mr.

Leake then submitted to the Government a proposition to lay and complete a pneumatic service, with' a 24-inch pipe, between the two offices, aud to give the 8amo to the Government free of charge. Accompanying this formal offer were tho report' of" Postmaster Field's engineer and a guarantee from Christopher Thomas G. Carey, Thomas and Bradley Bros that the -contract. or the Leake Company be faithfully performed. The guarantors were.

worth at least $380.000. Mr. certitled Leake sont also with the proposition a check for $5,000. A8 a guarantee of good faith, but this was refused by Postmaster Field on the ground thut be had not 09 yet inquired into the standing of the Leake Pneumatio Transportatiou Company, Thoreupon Mr. Leake furnished the postmaster with a bond or $300,000, which was accopted.

The the proposition from Mr. Leake. together with other documents, Mr. Field oarried to Washington and presented in person to Postmaster-General Wanamaker. Meanwhile the ownors of the Olay Pneumatio system wore making strenuous efforts to establish a plant in P'hiladelphia for the use of tho postal authorities.

The activo representative of the Clay people in this matter was J. 0. MoHonry, who de an intimate friend of Postmuster Field and Postmaster Wanamakor, and has been a toacher in MI. Wanamaker's Suuday-school for about twenty-nve years. The proposition of tho Clay poople was.

for 6-luch tube as against tho peoplo'8 24-Inch tube. They also asked tho Government to pay thom, ir their plant was satisfaotory, bonus of about $30,000. In both cases the power to run the systoms was to come from the surplus bolfor-power in the Philadelphia Post-Onico building. This dirterence, howevor, existed: that whero the Leake system requtrod only the powor of boiler the Olay. system the comblued power of thrve batters.

About. Doc. 1 the Post-Onico Department ID Philadelphia received notice from Mr. Wanamaker that no definite proposition had been racolved from the Lenko company. In reply Mr.

Loake Mr. Wanamaker that Postmaster Fluid bad stated that ho fu person bad delivered to the Postmaster-General the proposition of the Leuko Company, together with the bond or security, To this Wanamaker roplied, saying that he was with. out any denpite proposition and ho could not consider a vorbal one. Mr. Leake at once sent to Mr.

Wanamaker a duplicate copy of the original proposition, as well as of all other papers pertaining to tho matter. Those papers were accompanied oy a lotter to Postmaster-Goneral Wanamaker from B. F.

MILLIONAIRES ARE HURT. A Strike Against D. Il. King, the Builder, May Affect Their Club. MEN AT WORK ON THE METROPOLITAN CLUB-HOUSE MAY QUIT TO-DAY.

Millionaires wore scurrying around yester day at the belieat of ordinary laboring men. Tho gold-laden citizens of Now York who! have tuken a deop interest in tho progress of tho work upon the now Metropolitan House, were worried whon they learned that tho big striko begun against all the contracts of David 11.

The Millionaires' Club is the popular name that has been given this organization or capitalists for social purposes.

The foundation for this superb homo for millionaires 13 just rising from the ground.

About forty bricklayers are at work. mostly upon tho mussive piers. Though this building is far from being ready for architectural frou, work will caso when the present materials are used up, because the architectural iron used In other buildings being built under King contructs has been made by non-union workmen. Mr. King has built a row of houses in Ono Hundred and Thirty-eighth and one Hundred and Thirty-niuth streets, betweon soventh aud Eighth avenues, where the obJectionable iron from Coutractor Williams was offered tor use.

Strikes were ordered ou all of Mr. King's buildings, and yesterday about eigut hundred meal stopped work. Tho men on the club building may quit, to-day. The bricklayers at the club-houso are not under the jurisdiction of the Board of Walk1ng Delegates, but their material 1s. When that 18 used up they must quit.

The club men expected to occupy their house early next spring, so anxious 81'0 they to do it chat it a striko occurs to-day things may. be reversed in the personal character of participants du conferences to bring about an early settlemont. The club- house iron contract is wit.b the Cornells. There may be trouble when that point is reached, for a delegate suld Just bight: Wo're making a light on Williams NOW, and propose to win It.
