His Honor tho Mayor, John Alexander;
Aldermen Donny, Hay ne, Miuort, Moo?
ney, SimonH, Smith, Taylor and Wigg.
Absent-Aldermen .Cooper, Goodwyn,
Thompson and Wallace.
His Honor the Mayor steted that be
bad called this meeting jor a speoial pur?
pose-that is, whether it JH necessary to
take any steps at present in referen co to
the case now before the c?nrj, between
B. 0. Boiver and others ?a. j eines M.
Allen, J. Lv Neagle and W. H. Wigg,
relative to contract for the erection of a
City Hall.
James D. Tradewell, Esq., City Attor?
ney, addressed the Council at length in
explanation of the proceedings in court,
sud the newspaper misrepresentation of
the matter, &o.
The following resolution was offered
and adopted:
Resolved, That it be referred to a com?
mittee of three to inquire,' and report to
the Mayor and Aldermen of the oity of
Columbia, now in Council assembled,
whether it be expedient at tlris time to
take any notion in the casu of Robert C.
Shiver and others vs. tho city of Colum?
bia and James M. ' Allon, wherein the
plaintiffs seek to set aside tho contract
for the erection of a City Hall; ?and if
sb, what that action should be.
The Mayor appointed as tho commit?
tee Aldermen Denny, Minbrt and Heyne.
Alderman penny, from tte special
committee, reported as follows, and the
report was unanimously adopted : '
The Committee to whom tho above re?
solution was referred beg leave to report:
That they have considered the same,
and submit the following as the result of
their consid?ration: As far aa your com?
mittee are at present advised, the court
has been called on to arrest the further
execution of the City Hall contract, be?
cause James M. Allen, the contractor for
the erection of thia building, has con?
spired with Wm. H. Wigg, one of this
body and chairman of the Building
Committee, and Dr. J. Xi. Neagle, Mr.
Allen's surety for the fulfillment of his
contract, fraudulently to award that con?
tract to him, and subsequently fraudu?
lently to prevail upon the Mayor and
Aldermen of this city to ratify. that
award. There is no charge of fraud in
the awarding of the contract to Mr. Al?
len against the Mayor and Aldermen in
the present complaint of these citizens.
On the contrary, they are alleged to be
the victims of one of this body only,
who confederated with Dr. Neagle and
Mr. Allen to perpetrate a fraud upon
them, and, through them, upon the tax?
payers of the oity of Columbia. The
charge of fraud in the first, complaint
was brought against this whole- body,
and embraced the market contract and
the issue of .oity bonds. Tho diff?rence
between the latter and former complaint,
therefore, is manifest. But it matters
not what form this controversy may as?
sume, the Mayor and Aldermen aver
that they have acted throughout, in re?
ference to the contract for the erection
of a City Hall, in perfectly good faith,
in coincidence with the wishes of the
corporators and tax-payers of the oity;
and to-day, as they have ever been, are
not only willing bnt anxious to have de?
veloped all the facts and circumstances
attending the letting of the contract in
question. If there be fraud connected
with this transaction, it does not attach
to them, or, as they belieye, to uny mem?
ber of their body, bnt ciUBt cover with
unutterable infamy those upon whom
the plaintiffs are forced to rely for their
proofs, and who have been the fearfully
guilty instruments of deluding them, to
the injury of their fellow-citizens. Your
committee,! therefore, recommend the
adoption of the following resolutions:
Resolved, 1. That the testimony token
before the Commiftee of this body, con?
sisting of Messrs. J. M. Allen, B. M.
Joh nBon and W. H. Parkins, on the
subject of the good faith of the City
Council of Columbia in awarding the
i contract to the said Allen for the erec?
tion of a City Hall, and the affidavit of
Mr. Clark Waring in relation to bis bid
therefor, be forthwith published in the
ri_i_"u:_ x>-.....? -
.i i vi il. . ' 11, M. Kl rulAA,
Resolved, 2. That the bids for said
contract of B. M. Johnson and Clark
Waring be likewise published in said
mewspaper.
Resolved, 3. That the affidavits, here?
with presented, of Alderman Wm. H.
Wigg, of W. Hazard Wigg, and of Capt.
James C. Bell, together with the two
j letters of W. H. Parkins to Aldermen, of
dates November 23d and 2t4b, be also
published.
Evidence of J. M. Allen, taken No?
vember 18, 1871, before Special Com?
mittee of Council and City Attorney:
James M. Allen-sworn "by Alderman
Denny, Chairman, examination by City
Attorney-I was the successful bidder
for the City Hall con tract; the amount
of my bid was $133,000. The bid was
in writing, and was accepted. There
were two other bidders-Clark Waring
and B. W. Johnson. The bids were
sealed. The bids of Waring and John?
son were higher than mine. Previous to
handing in bids, I had no conversation
with either Waring or Johnson on the
subject of bids. I had heard Mr. Boll
WAS going to bid. I was in ignorance of
tho amount of any other bid until the
bids were opened. I had no information
of their bids from themselves, or any
other source, before the opening of the
bids by the Committee. Thero waa no
understanding between Mr. Waring, Mr.
Johnson and myself, to do anything,
except I did say to Mr. Waring, if I got
tho coutraot, that I might like him to do
the brick work; he said he would en?
deavor to do it. After the contract WAS
awarded to me, I did make such an ar?
rangement, though it is not a permanent
one; I can suspend his work at any mo?
ment. No conversation took pince be?
tween Waring, Johnson and myself, rela?
tive to carpenter work; there were no
inducements held out to either of them,
that if I got the contract, they should do
a portion of the work. I never spoke to
Mr. Johnson on the subject at all. I
never had, directly or indirectly, or
through any agent, any understanding
with Waring or Johnson relative to let?
ting portions of the contract before
opening of bids; after the bids were
oponed, wo had a conversation relative
to the amount of our bids. My bid,
under which the contract was made, was
made in ignoranco of what any other bid
was to be. Dr. Neagle, tho Sunday after,
when I showed him my figures, said that
he would not go on my bond, unless the
amount was $150,000. I told him I
could do it for $138,000. He then said
ho would go on my bond, if I pushed
the work rapidly. Dr. Neagle did not
know what my bid WAS to be the day the
bids were opened, having told me he wai
going to bid. Johnson did not; no men
tion of amount of bid was mode bj
