FUHRMAN's ASSERTION.
Mr.. Thurman said he would later on Prove
its authenticity.
John A. Kretzmeyer. formerly cashier in
the San Francisco Office OF the Fredericks-
burg Brewery and afterward cashier of
the syndicate up TO September last, testi-
fed that he had entire supervision of the
cash received and expended. During 1859
no money was paid out TO Thurman, nor did
Fuhrman ever demand or request any. If
he had witness would have known it. Some
ill-will was shown By the other breweries to
the Fredericksburg Brewery before joining
the syndicate, but he could not explain ex-
actly what it was.
In answer to Mr. Williams witness said
that during Mr.. Dencke's administration
OF the syndicate be did not know Of any
trouble between the syndicate and the
union.
Rudolph Hagen, proprietor Of the Albany
Brewery. who had been previously ex-
amined, testified that ii. Dryer, referred to
by Thurman, left his employment owing
him $3.50, and he had never recovered 1t.
Dryer went to Henning Thode's brewery.
Witness was afterward interviewed by some
members Of the union and he related the
ployed at the brewery before witness became
proprietor. At that time he had no
knowledge OF his trustworthiness or
untrustworthinesss. Steps were taken
by the union to get back his money,
but they were unsuccessful. The union,
however, prevented Dryer from taking
away his customers. Witness had never
got back horses. wagon or money. During
the 1888 boycott witness acted generally as
the leader In effect,ng settlement with the
Federated Trades. Mr.. RooTbacher never
led him to believe that he was trying to
bride any member Of the onion, Witness
reaffirmed what he had ewoEn E1eviously-
that he (had never paid cnp49lIar to any
membex CT the union.
