The investigatles Int the workings of theweather bureau was continued at the Agriel.tUral Departmsnt yesterday afternoon. Atthough it asted nearly two hoeur no startlingfete weoe developed and most of the attentiosaf Assistant Attorney Gewasl Colby ad ChielClerk NoCeaig was devotsd to a further consideration of the ftee already gone over.
Iserstery Maoren eame into Mr. MeCut'room and emained thee for some time as nwintareeted witness, though he did not takevery active part in the hearing. He happaueto be presset when Gen. Colby was quastleniagHopfenmaier. the junk dealer who bought tiarticles from Capt. Braunon that were said t4have been stolen from the weather bureauHopfenmater made a very good impression athe hearing, althaugh he seemed very mucaverse to the publicity this cae habrought him. He insisted that if the goodware staken he had no reason to believ,it. Part of hisbe's was the purchase ocondemned property r the government dopartaments and he smpposed that all that eamnfrom the weather bureau hod been properl]condemned. He averred that he had alwayendeavored to he as be put it, "an honesjunk dealer, though high moral characters anvery rare in that profession."
WRAT IFLLIYAN amiD.John Sullivan was the first witness called t6
the stand. He has been a laborer in thweather bureau for eleven years. He maid theon the morning of December 17. 1M92. twvwaon called at the bureau. Mr. Hopfenmaier's two men were with the wagons. anthey said they were sent for some old typebelting and copper wire. About eaven boxewere placed in the wages. They were in jshed where all the property was ket that weto be condemned and old at public auctionThe men with the wagons mid that this okstaff had been sold by Capt. Brannon.That same morning. witnese continued. CaptBrannon told him that the wagon wonuid be allater for old paper, but he told Brannon the
he thought not. as the wagons had already beesiup. On the 22d of the same month the wagon,came again after some old type and paperThis laist stuff was taken from the paper sand not from the condemned shaed. The twqsheds adjoin. Witness remembered having seeta roil of linoleum removed from the place.Last fall Capt. Brannon returned from thmwest and he overheard Capt. airannon remarlto Capt. Stone that there had been a good desof stealing going on in his absence and if hhad not come back when he did the buildingmight have been taken away as well. On 0otober 20 witnems found about 40 pounds otype and some belting near the printing oiciand he called the attention of the storekeepeito it and asked where he wanted it stored. ItDecember he law Won. Plummer packing thensame boxesand asked him where they were goingPlummer did not know and witness told binthey were going to Hopfenmaler's. Sullivaimaid that he met Brannon in front of Horfen-maier's place. Brannon asked him if he wakeeping a watch on hims. Sullivan told hinthat he was not; this was to throw him of hiiguard. Witness had never had any dificultwith Brannon except once when it was in connectiom with the eondition of the horea' backin the stable.Watness said that about a year ago 2.41
pounds of new ledgers were taken from a she.and turned over to Brannon by Ryan and theawere put in bags by Ropfenaier's men antcarted away. Further, Sullivan soid that i3one year 25,000 pounds of books were remotecby Brannon's directions to Hopfenmaisr'pUae. They were old records and wesold as old paper. The unused bookwere marked with the name of thisignal service and this was after thMweather bureau was turned over to the Agrieltural Department. A stone step belongingto the main building and about fifteen arostringers were also sold at Brannon's directionsSome waxed paper was also sold to Hopfenmaier as waste paper, Brannon giving as a reason that it was of no use to the bureau.
TI eTONa star.James E Kerr, a' gardener in the employ o
the government mince 1861. was next called. Hwas asked about the stone step that was re
moved from the weather bureau, but said thehe knew nothing about it. He had seen it, budid not know anything about its being takeiaway, and "would like to see the man thecould say he did."That was all for Mr. Kerr, and Win. Plummer
a colored laborer at the bureau, was put upo.the anxious bench. He told of has havinspacked about seven boxes of type at the direction of Mr. Ryan. )id not know what becamiof it. He also packed the waxed paper anplaced it in Capt. Brannon's room, urder thiImpression that it was to be sent out to some othe stations. He did not know whether or aolit was condemned goods.
NI. nopFExm 'saTsTIRoWT.Louis Hopfenmaier, the hide and junk deal
who plays such a prominent if uncertain parin this investigation, maid that in answer to o
telephone message he went to Ryan's house oiM street. R-yan told him that he had somgoods for sale and he went down into the cellarwhere he found a considerable amount of stationery, drawing paper, wri* paper, penand pencils. Ryan. whom he known at tbweather bureau, maid that he wanted to sell tbgoods right away. The stationery was new anin the original package.. It was weather buresu paper and witness refused to have anything tojlo with it. Ryan's explanataon of hipossession of all this stuff was that it was marplus matter and had been givea to him by cdicials of the bureau.
"That's a new wayof disposing of a surplus,'remarked Sesretarv Morton. Every one smiledfor this was the hrtbrisk in a rather uniateresting hearing.As to the removal of the type, Mr. Hopfen
mater stated in the most emphatie mnanner thehe had never taken a single pound of tyefrosthe weather bureau. If any one said headadwas a deliberate falsehood. Furthermore. bhad never had two waguas at the westhebureau at the same time. There had nevebeen enough goods to remove at one time to require two wagons. A to the molds for printersrollers he had never, to the beet et his knowiedge, purchesed any. Hopfenamr smad thehe made It a rule in dealing with the departmonte to pay in chmchs,to avoid any quistion aall, but Capt. Brannon objected to this em tbground that It was inconvenaent to bother wilcashngr checks for smal sumsa. lbs only cheelhe mada was in favor of Capt. Stains. In Ibother transactions he paid cash ad the meo.was handed over to Capt. Brannon.Hopfe-mat tham tequmsted periand.u t
smake a etatemsent to ihow his eemneotion witiBrannon. Whsm Brannon was in the PoeOdica Departament he was in the junk basinesas well, and Hlopfenmaler raised the point thehe should pay a junk dealers leens, and thimade an unpleasant feln etwesm the.Their relations had beam st iIn the liae abunss and he wished new he hdnever heiany atall.
"'There is commdswable of the Dutek abcsame," said Hepfemaasr. "I don't oftsm foegive and I never forget. I never went to mahim, for he always came to ee me whem he hes
mthnto eml. There have been a number.ootiukdealers, and I ds't ese whyI shoal

Allen Spencer, tes colored driver of the malwagon flor the bureau, teetised that he carrissome eases ad rag to Capt. Branon's hemsThen he brought som goods beck, but eaalinot say whether it was all,ashekaptneeeesaHe did rseber, however, that he nevebro'o the easeshback. eeoeldanotbesu
