BARDSLEY'S DUE BILLS.

His Assignee Attempts to Recover
$o26,OoO from the Keystone Bank.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 1.-The affidavit of
the defense in the suit brought by Edward
McGill, assignee of ex-Treasurer Bardsley,
to recover $925,OO alleged to have been
deposited in the Keystone Bank, and for
which BardsIey holds fourteen true bills,
has been filed in court. The affidavit is
sworn to by Cashier John Hayes on behalf
of the Keystone Bank. Mr.. Hayes
AYERS six of the due bills, represent
ing 1000, are genuine, and represent
cash paid into the bank. The others, he
says. are fraudulent, having been given by
President Marsh of the bank to Bardsley
with the intent to deceive, and there was
guilty collusion between the two. Not one
cent was deposited by Bardsley, Mr.. Hayes
says. in return for the 100000 worth Of
due bills given to him by Marsh. Mr.. Hayes
concluded his affidavit with the statement
that he will produce evidence to prove what
he says when che case is brought to trial.
