Attorney Russell Denies That He
 Made Any Statement About Edward
 L. Kimberly of West Haven as Pub.
 IIshed Yesterday Afternoon.
 Yesterday afternoon the Union published a sensational article in which it insinuated that MT. Edward L. Kimberly of Orange, agent for MT. Wilson Waddingham, had been using some of the latter's money for his own use and would probably be compelled to keep company with Agent Scott in the County jail. They also quoted Lawyer Tal- colt H. Russell, attorney for Kimberly, as stating when asked if he had any statement to make in Kimberly's behalf:
 q don't know as have anythingto say about it. ' and then almost in the same breath he said: Has he (Kimberly) been arrested yet?"
 When answered in the negative Attorney Russell seemed to feel relieved and also little surprised
 Attorney Russell when seen last evening said: "I did not say any such thing to the reporter of the Union as he said did. He put those words into my mouth and then built up his story from that. I know of nc suit against MT. Kimberly, and particularly of no criminal suit. He has, however, been warned out of the premises which he occupies in Orange and which are the property of MT. Waddingham. The af- fairs of the West Shore Land and Improve ment company are in very complex state, and should I say anything about them 1t would only be denied on the other side, 80 don't care to say anything about them"
 The article probably arose from some in vestigation which is being made in the West Shore Land and Improvement company, for which MT. Kimberly was agent, the affairs of which are said to be in g very complex state.
