last night. hearing the charges Of contempt
against Eugene DeupIey, Henry w. Hutton
and Alfred Fuhrman, i'll connection with the
trial ofithe Traeger case on August 4th last.
The attempt was renewed by the attor-
neyS representing the accused to interrupt
the hearing and defeat the charges by inter-
posing demurrerS and like obstacles, based
on the ground that thealleged contempt was
not within the jurisdiction of the court.
The Judge swept away all distractions,
however, by overriding the demurrers.
denying all motions, and himself reading
statement of the facts of the case within
his own knowledge. He fully expected. as
he afterward stated, that the case would be
submitted on an agreed statement of facts,
but as 1t was not the District Attorney was
ordered to proceed with the testimony.

Judge James Mcguire, Attorney Henry N

to some portions of the trouble, were eX-
amined. The facts they related were all
published In The CALL on the morning of
August 9TH.
An attempt was made by Mr.. Mullaney,
representing Hutton aud Thurman, to bring
out the early morning proceedings in the
Iraeger case, when Deuprey called Hutton
cur and other hard names, to show the
proyoeation for Hutton acts, but tue Judge
would not allow it.
Hutton admitted the acts he is accused of,
but dlsclaimed emphatically any thought Of
offending the Court.
Ihe hearing will proceed at o'clock this
afternoon, continuing till completed.

SYSTEMATIC sWINDLING.
How the Books Of the Keystone Bank Were
Doetored TO Deceive.

How the Books Of the Keystone Bank We're
Doetored to Deceive
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 27.-Ex- -Assistan
Cashier c. Lawrence of the Keystone Bank,
now serving a seven-year term for COM
plicty in the wreckng Of the bank. has
written statement of the methods used to
deceive ex-B Bank Examiner Drew. The let
ter, which bears the date of August 9th and
is addressed to Colonel William p. Drew. is
in the form OF a confession. Lawrence says
that in the first llace every means possible
were used to swell the assets and diminish
the liabilities of the bank. This was done
by no regular method, but by plans suggested
by the opportunity; the individual ledgers
were altered at least twice year-about the
time Drew was expected. Sometimes whole
pages were abstracted; false balances were
made by altering the pencil figures; large
balances were decreased and over
balances wiped OUT false credits
were posted to overdrawn accounts, so
that the examiners attention would not be
drawn to the 'edger more minutely. Some
times false checks were posted to an ac-
count having large balance, so as to re-
duce the liabilities. This was done to the
extent Of about $500, ,000 The money owed
the cash drawer was replaced, sometimes
by means of due-bill taken from the back
of due-bill book, sometimes by means of
a certificate of deposit, or by the President
were swelled by the introduction of fic-
titious notes; these were intended both to
swell the assets and take the place of other
bills discounted, which 1t was thought best
not to let the examiner see, lest it might
excite his suspicion. Lawrence, after CIV
ing the above and expressing his inability
to go into details, the above being but
mere outline of the methods, states that his
share in the deception was not done with a
petty desire to deceive Drew, but to carry
out the instructions of his superior officer.
