aforesaid, when Sooy asked the comptroller
how he knew, and when told that he had
learned the facts by calling at tho Office of the
company, the said Sooy said lie had received
some money, but he did not think there was
as much as represented. When asked what
he had done with the amount of money he,
Sooy, had received, he replied that he had de-
posted it in the Union Bank at Mount Holly,
and in the Savings Bank at Camden, and that
he did not have the books with him when he
made the deposits, but he could have it all
right in about week.
Mr.. Sooy admitted in this conversation that
he knew he did not do right in not reporting
these moneys as having been received, but
would make it all right this week." The
Comptroller told him it must be done at once,
g this week " would not do, and that he must
go at once and get the deposits entered and
report them but Mr.. Sooy said he could not

(the 24th) that Sooy promised to go and do ii
right away. He then left and the Comptrol Ell
alleges he has not seen him since, nor has he
done anything towards rectifying his said ac-
counts.
In this conversation he told the Comptrol-
Ter that the deposit in the said bank at Mount
Holly was $4,000 or 100000 or $40, 600 or
$50, 600, and that he could not tell how much

Comptroller has since learned that the amount
deposited in the Mount Holly Bank was be-
tween $31, 900 and $32, 900, and in the Camden
Bank about $4,000.
The statement of Mr.. E. J. Anderson, the
chief assistant In the Comptroller's Office, is
that in a conversation with Mr. Sooy yester-
day, he, the said Sooy, admitted that he had
received from the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company the sum of $50, 900 and that between
500, 900 and $50, 900 was deposited in the Union
Bank at Mount Holly.
MI. Sooy gave as a reason for not reporting
this money to the comptroller that the folks
at the Union Bank did not want it known how
much he had there, and he further said he had
made an appointment with his bondsmen to
meet them at his Office next Friday and make
his accounts all light.
Mr.. Sooy was brought into the audience
room of the Executive Department and was
told by Justice Mills what the allegations
were.
Mr.. Sooy then replied that he did not owe
the State of New Jersey one dollar, and that
If he had time and fair show he could make
it appear SO. But he was not prepared to do
so now Nor was he prepared to have an ex-
animation. The Justice then required him to
give bail in the sum of $4,000. He said he
was not prepared to give it, He desired that
the Justice should commit him to some hotel.
