WEBER MUST PAY THE CLERKS
Justice Gaynor Decides in Favor
Of Renne and His Companions.
Their Pay-Roll Disputed as They
Were Not Civil-Service Men.

Justice Gaynor. in the Supreme Court.
Brooklyn. this morning handed down a
decision in the case OF James H. Reune
and five fel!ow-clerks. who mandamused
City Auditor Anton Weber for refusing
to pay their salaries. The decision is a
victory for the plaintiffs and the Re-
publican oar Of Aldermen.
The case has been under Justice Gay
nor's consideration for W months.
When the new Aldermen took their
seats they Immediately discharged all
the Democratic clerks and appointed
Republicans in their places. or these
they appointed Mr.. Renne and fte
others as clerks to the various COM
mittees."
These clerks performed duties in City
Clerk B~enjamin's office which were for
For this reason Mr.. Weber refused to
audi their payroll on the ground that
they had not been selected from the
civil-service list. The mandamus pro-
ceedings was the result.
In his decision Justice Gaynor takes
the ground that the Aldermen had the
right to appoint the clerks TO committees,
and that City Clerk Benjamin also had
the right to ask them 10 perform any
duties In his Office.
Since the clerks were not appointed by
the Aldermen to perform duties embodied
in the civil-service schedule. Justice
Gaynor says they cannot be disturbed,
and may continue In their present po-
sitions.
The six clerks will now receive their
back salaries from February to June ],
aggregating In all about SIS, 900.

He Is Much Wanted ct the Bank

More Testimony In the Madison
Squarc-St. Nicholas Suit.

The hearing in the suit of the re-
ceivers of the Madison Square Bank,
against the receivers OF the st. Mich
las Bank was resumed before Referee
william G. ckoate. this morning.
Cashier Donald. OF the Hanover Ma
tional Bank. was recalled by Lawyer
Untermyer, and was asked II he had
refreshed his memory with regard to
the deposit of the Glen Ridge Quarry
and Mining Company's check for 81, 7Sl.
on the morning Of August 8. 1893. The
cashier testified that the check had not
passed through his hands, and he was
certain it had not been deposited by
Frederick Uhlman. The Glen Ridge
check was Endorsed by Simon Uhlmann.
Al this point, Lawyer untermyer ex-
planned that efforts had been made to
find Simon Uhlmunn. but they had
proved futile.
The referee then presented a state
nent. showing that on the evening OF

Bank a sum slightly over SIS, 900. and

The statement was offered in evidence.
Thomas NJ. Ryan, IN expert account
ant, employed by the receivers OF the
Madison Sqnare Bank, was recalled. and
testified that a printed notice had been
sem out by the receivers to those de-
positors. who had been paid moneys on
checks deposited Aug. s. 1893. to the
effect that such payments a been
made enormously. The notice was sent
out Immediately after the discovery
that such payments were made.
Cross-examined by Lawyer Butler,
Expert Ryan testified that lead-pencil
memoranda were made in the ledg-
ers, subject to changes, and that divi-
dends were paid on a basis OF the sum

morning Of Aug. 3. 1893.
william B. Putney. who was counsel
for Director Mcdonald, Of the Madison
Square ank and at odd times the legal
representative of Frederick Uhlmann.
testified that he was at the bank on the
evening OF Aug. s, 1893. President
Blount and Directors Uhlmann and Nc
Donald and Cashier Thompson were
there. The Clearinghouse Committee
had arrived a short time previously.

Greatly Interested In the Testimony
Of Several Contract Laborers.
DIR. Senner and Samuel Gompers
Before the Congressman.

The Congressional Committee on I'M
migration continued Its investigation
into the padrone system at an eXecu-
tive session at the Hotel Victoria to-
day. The Committee was to return to
Washington this afternoon, and 1t was
considered advisable not to make public
the result OF the investigation, until
after 1t was acted upon by the entire
Committee.
Vincenzo Palumbo. of 1893 Mott street.
who has taken great interest in THE
Evening World's' exposure of the pa
drone system, assisted the Committee
in collecting evidence. and gave testi-
mony himself with regard to the man
ner in which Italians working at Sing
Sing were mulcted. The details Of
this have already been published.
Other witnesses heard to-day were:
Giuseppe Notaro. Giuseppe Lijoira, Sal
vatore Buonizwono. Nicola Florino and
Sielpo Salvatore.
The last W are BARRIERS, who are IA
miliar with the padrone system, but the
first three have been in this country
only a few weeks.
They each testihed that they had re-
ceiXed letters while in Italy promising
tkems work II they came to America,
and h a they came here practically as
contract laborers, but had been coached
how to pass the Ellis Island authorities.
They said they learned when they ar
rived here that the Italian banker who
communicated with them was a padrone,
and that he a no work for them, but
intended holding them until men were
called for. During the interval, 1t was
asserted. they were living in a lodging
house run by the padrone.
The testimony - these men interested
the COMMITTEES greatly. and may lead Ia
legislation making II possible &c curb the
padrones hi their slave-ike traffic.
One OF the amendments to the Immi-
grafton act suggested after to-day's pro-
ceedings was that a provision be made
so that foreigners returned as contract
laborers may be held as witnesses as
long as the Ellis Island authorities de-
sire. Under prevailing regulations they
must be returned In the ship they come
in on. For that reason they are not
available as witnesses IL the authorities
wish to take action against padrones.

by the bank. He made no inquiries as
to the banks assets and liabilities.
Lawyer Putney admitted having con-
ferred with Messrs. thlmann and Nc
Donald Aug. Z, 1899. He had protested
against the action OF the Clearing
House Committee, because, he thought.
the taking possession of the securities
was rather summary, and was unjust
to the deposltors OF the Madison Square.
Willard G. Durham. receiving teller OF
the anove National Bank, was the
mex witness. He recollected having re-
celved the Glen Ridge check through his
window on the morning Of Aug. 3, 1888,
but did not know by whom 1t had been
presented. The check was credited as a
deposit OF the previous day.
He had been instructed to credit the
check to the previous day, otherwise he
would not have lone so. He could not
recall where his instruction came from,
but was positive he would not have
credited the check as he did had he not
received orders from his superIors. He
admitted that this method was some
what unusual.
At the afternoon session, I.awyer. But

moved that the case be dismissed on the
ground that the plaintiffs had failed to
prove any standing in court, and that

OF other motions. All were denied by

Justice Ingraham. Of the Supreme
Court. to-day signed an order modifying
the injunction granted last February
enjoining the Manhattan Railway Com
pany from building a third track on the
Ninth avenue branch Of their Il" road.
Under the modified order the Com
pany can build a third track along Ninth
avenue from Gansevoort to Eighty-third
street, and thereby have a continuous
track for express trains.
The application for the modification
Of the Injunction was mad by Lawyer
Julien T. Davies. and Assistant Corpora
ton Counsel Connolly appeared for the
city.
Mr.. Davies presented an afidavit made
by Frank X. Hahn, Second Vice-Presi-
lent and General Manager of the road.
in which he stated that the application
for this change had been made to and
approved by the Railroad Commissioner
. wiIslow 8. Pierce. Vaughan Carter and
Sutherland Tenny.
Mr.. Hahn states the change Is sought
for the purpose Of lettering the service
and to avoid the blocking of trains in
case Of an accident. Switches are to be
constructed at each station for this pur-
pose.
Mr.. Davies stated that the Company
had secured the permission of the Rapid
