II the Legislature Wants to Investi-

(By Associated Press.)

ALBANY. Feb. 2s.-State Superintend-
ent Of Banks Preston was asked this
morning what he had to say concerning
the presentation OF a petition from the
depositors of the wrecked Commercial
Bank, of Brooklyn, which was presented
In the Senate yesterday, and which calls
for a legislative investigation of Supt.
Preston's Investigation of said bank prior
to its insolvency. He said:
This is the same old fight which these
people have been carrying on against
this Department, and myself personally,
EVER since the bank went under. They
first entered the courts with their case
but were beaten there. They next ap-
pealed to the Executive of the State.
and once more this Department was ex-
onerated.
Not satisfied with losing their case
before two constitutional branches OF the
State Government-the judicial and the
Executive-they now appeal 10 the third
the Legislative. Well, let the investi-
CATION be had. II the Legislature so de-
cides. The State Banking Department
is at all times open for Inspection. We
have nothing to conceal. we fear nothing
from an investigation"

ELLIOTT WANTS A WRIT.
Board of Supervisory Counsel After
Papers Held by Meyenborg.

Justice Smith, in the Supreme Court,
Brooklyn, this morning. heard an argu.
ment on an application for a writ OF
mandamus to compel John b. Meyen-
borg. ex-counsel to the Board OF Super
visors Of Kings County, TO deliver the
books and papers of his office to George
F. Elliott, the new counsel.
Col. Meyenborg's case was argued by
John H.. kemble, who moved to dismiss
the application on the ground that the
office was not a public one in the mean
ing Of the statute. He said that the
Board simply hired one man to do its
law business. and alleged that Elliott
had no standing in court, as he was no,
a public officer.
He urged that while the Board could
apply for the substitution Of Elliott as
Its counsel, that wrong steps had been
taken in the case.
Counsellor breckenridge. representing
George f. Elliott. said that his client
was regularly appointed as Col. Meyen-
borg's successor, and that the office was
a public one, as its incumbent is paid a
salary out OF the public funds.

AN ILLICIT STILL RAlDED.
1t Was Located in n House in New
Utrecht. l..

A squad Of officers under the direction
Of Deputy United States Revenue Col
lector Fisher and Secret Service Agent
Brooks. armed with a search warrant.
raided an alleged Illicit distillery located
in a house in Stewart avenue, near Bay
Ridge venue. New Utrecht, Monday
night.
All the apparatus used in making whis-
key was found on the place, but the dis
tillers had evidently got wind of the in
tended raid. Not a person could be found
In the house, but 1t is believed that the
arrest of several connected with the still
will soon follow.
The officers found the still in a rear
room,. partly underground. The boilers
were hardly cold, and 1t is thought they
were IN operation up to a short time be-
fore the raid. A new engine and the pre-
Vailing brightness of things gave a gen.
eral air of prosperity to the place.
The house. is a large one and nicely
furnished. 1t had been under surveii-
lance for several months, and 1t Is said
that the Internal Revenue officers have
evidence that several barrels of whiskey
have been removed in wagons from the
house. The capacity of the still was
about twenty gallons a day.
The only occupant known to the
neighbors was a woman who had been
seen around the place several times.
