EX-TREASURER KAMENA.

The trial of the suit of the city Of Hoboken against the
bondsmen of cx-City Treasurer Kamena was continued
yesterday the Circuit Court at Jersey City before
Judge Knapp. The testimony taken wholly from
the financial records of the city, showing that Ksmena
had on hand when the defendants became his bonds
sl27. .00O and that that basis retiring from
Office he debtor TO the city to the amount of
1000 According to the records Kamena had also,
among other Irregularities, paid out $4,000 Of the
school funds without warrants and on occasion
had transferred SAL and another 81 600 of tho
funds from the city's account to his own. Counsel
for the plaintiff then rested his case.
Mr.. Gilbert Collins, for the defendants applied for
nonsuit the ground that the books not suf-
ficient evidence OF the amount Kamena had on hand
june 1877 and he claimed that the city should show
how much he actually had on hand outside OF the
books at that time. the defence being that the defa
cations occurred prior to April. 1877. Judge Knapp
denied the motion for n nonsuit. holding that tho
records we're prima facie evidence Of the financial
condition of the city.
The will be continued to-day.
