BOYER ON THE STAND.
He Claims Legal Right To Do As He
Did In Managing His Office.

nAhhaSihB hiS OAhSO.
HARRISBURG, PA, October 21.-At
to-iay's session Of the Senate, State
Treasurer Boyer testified that he had
taken no legal steps to require quarterly
statements from John Bardsley. He
had taken no steps TO require Bardsley's
compliance with the lay requiring quar-
terlY statements from county treasur-
ers.
Senator Robbins-''Mr. Boyer, the
charge against you is malfeasance in
office in two respects; first in paying
1920, 900 of school funds illegally to
Bardsey; and second in allowing him
to retain State money in his possession.
Had you any authority to anticipate
the payment Of this money!"
Mr.. Boyer-"Yes, sir. Under school
legislation affecting Philadelphia. The
General Appropriation bill Of 1889, CIV
ing the Treasurer authority to pay upon
warrants drawn by the superintendent
OF Public Instruction whenever he shall
notify the Superintendent that there Is
sufficient money in the treasury. IL
was proper and legal payment, as l
have since been advised by counsel"
In answer to another question Mr..
BOYER said that his belief in Baldsley's
integrity led him to defer making any
examination OF books or turning the
case over to the Attorney General for
collection. In answer to questions by
Senator McGrary, Mr.. Boyer said he
had never held back the school
warrants OF any county because the
treasurer was in arrears in his payment
TO the State.
Mr.. Boyer admitted that If his advice
to the effect that the time for payment
ended December 81, 1890, the Common
wealth would still owe Philadelphia
S42O 900 for 1891.
