Mr.. q. W. GBEEN, Coal Dealer on CONNER

n relation to the case OF alleged fraud in
veiehing coal, referred to by Mr.. Ring, i'm his
Communication in the Press. Mr.. Green's
statement of the material facts are supported
by the affidavit of his son, who weighed the
coal. and Of 9 man who. was present and wit
messed the weighing, his attention being CALI
ed to the matter by Mr.. Green at the time.
Mr. Green's statement is quite long, and he
does not require us TO publish Il unless future
events should demand it. Mr.. Green shows
that when Mr.. Ring called upon him to buy a
half ton of coal, from his manner he suspected
he might reweigh it, and therefore be was
specially careful to give exact weight. He
gives the gross weight of coal and sled, and
the weight of the sled, and is positive that if
Mr.. Rings coal fell short when weighed by the
city weigher, that it had been depredated up
on after its delivery. His statement is straight
forward, and, as we have said, backed by the
afidavits of third parties. GO
