That Mr. Gorgas as well as the

"talk" and that neither has really ac- i

accomplish anything for the Improve- j

Commissioner Lynch.

en Thousand Dollars

in Currency Is Sent to

U. S. "Conscience Fund"

By Associated Press

Washington, D. C., July 20. Ten

thousand dollars In currency, the sec

ond largest contribution to the "con

science fund" ever received by the

Government, arrived at the Treasury

Department to-day In a plain envelope,

mailed yesterday at New York, ac

companied by an unsigned letter say

ing: „

"The sender has paid double to the

United States the amount he stole and

still conscience is not satisfied. Here

is another payment."

The package contained three one

thousand dollar gold certificates, eight

five hundred dollar certificates and

thirty one hundred dollar silver and

gold notes.

Treasury officials found nothing In

the letter or amount to Indicate a

connection with any, of the govern

ment's losses by fraud or theft, so they

placed it with the $500,000 more

which has accumulated in the Treas

ury vaults from conscience stricken

folk who have sent sums hanging from

one cent to $18,669. The largest sum

ever received, came In 1909, probably

from some one who had committed a

customs fraud. The SIO,OOO package

to-day came addressed to Secretary

McAdoo and was marked "Personal."

GORGAS' RESOLUTION

MEANT ONLY TO DELAY,

TAYLOR TELLS COUNCIL

Action on His Proposal to Tie Up

Public Work Post

poned

SOLICITOR'S VIEWS ASKED

Gorgas Now Says He Didn't Say

Republican Members

"Bungled"

Until City Council receives an

opinion from City Solicitor D. S. Seitz

as to whether or not the city may

proceed with the completion of the

river front wall by continuing the

steps through the gap at Market street,

no final action will be taken on tha |

Gorgas resolution authorizing the pay- j

ment to W. H. Opperman and Com-'

pany of the arbitrators' award.

The City Commissioners by a vote of

3 to 2 decided this to-day following an |

exciting session. During the more or j

less heated discussion between Com-1

missioners {Taylor, Bowman and Lynch |

and. Commissioner Gorgas and Mayor

Royal many of the facts which Mr.

Lynch made in his interview before i

Council met, were reiterated.

The attitude of Mayor Royal and

Commissioner Gorgas was stated by I

Commissioner Taylor who, much to

the annoyance of Messrs. Royal and

Gorgas, summed up the situation as

follows:

"Why not complete all the work

and make a finished job of it

since there isn't enough in the

public works fund to pay the

Opperman award but there is

enough to finish the improve- ,

ments now pending.

"The whole purpose of this

resolution of Mr. Gorgas' to my

mind, is simply to delay the work

and prevent the colsing of the

gap at Market street."

Messrs. Lynch and Gorgas had a

lovely half hour when Mr. Gorgas

Just couldn't or wouldn't remember

that he had been present with Mr.

Woifarth, the other bondsmsyi for

Stucker Brothers, the wall contractors,

when the Board of Public Works, the

contractors, their bondsmen and Mr.

Lynch arranged the agreement last

February. Tt was at this time that

the retention of the estimate was dis

cussed.

Commissioners Bowman, Lynch and.

Taylor incidentally practically conv

pelled Mr. Gorgas to admit that he

Washington, July 20.—The .German

submarine attack on the Cunard

Secretary Lansing took Mr. Thomp
