been Sunday. On Monday . Polish re
porter Of the West Side said he had seen
and talked with Most in the presence Of

Jaehne's confidence.
In Washington, D. O., at the time
Of President ClsVeland's Inauguration,

lOney, Reading Clerk OF the Board, had
made 500, 900 to $4,000, because he had

up 70 the time Of his arrest, In
the latter part Of October, 1885, they
talked about the Broadway Railroad Com.
pany and witness told defendant II thoy,
the Aldermen, we're not careful they
would be sent to prison through Maloney,
who was going around bar rooms talking
about the money he had given them for
their votes, Defendant replied that Ma.
loney want any worse than some OF the
other members, When elected thsy
hadn't enough to pay the election ex,
penses and at the end Of the year they
were buying real estate, and everybody
knew they could not buy real estate on
their salaries.
When asked II he had bought any real
estate Jashne replied he had been a fool,
and that they couldn't find out where
his money was. The witness next saw
Jaehne on election night at the police
headquarters. He was elated over
his election, and when the witness
said he thought he was not to be
q candidate, he replied that that year
had been Q very poor one; that there had
been trouble between the syndicate from
Philadelphia and this city, and that no
business had been done In 1885,
The witness had another conversation
with defendant at City Hall couple OF
days before the Aldermen testified before
the Senate Committee. Jaehne said that
things were in q dreadfully bad shape,
Witness replied he had told him they
(the Aldermen) would get into trouble |
through their independence, but any way
he could serve him he would be glad to do |

what District Attorney MARITIME was
doing, and whether there were going to be

that evening and in further conversation
said that the Aldermen named knew he

to the original combination Of the thirteen
Aldermen formed in 1885, which
met once at FullgraG's office, but after
