NEW YORK, April 1A.-Richard Cro-
ker was on the stand to-day before the
Mazct investigation committee, and he
will be on the stand again tomorrow.
John L. Carroll, the Tammany leaders
chief deputy, was also put through q
course Of questioning this afternoon.
Judge Joseph T. Daily. whom the Demo-
Gratis refused to renomlnate for justice
OF the supreme court last fall, told OF
his treatment by Mr.. Croker and Tam
many, while other prominent witnesses
contributed testimony that went to
make the day most notable one in the
investigation into the city's affairs.
The examination Of Richard Croker
was u remarkable one, chiefly by reason
Of the answers which he returned to the
questions propounded to him by Mr..
Moss. He was brief and direct ana
took advantage Of the many opportuni-
ties afforded him TO retort in manner
that evoked applause many times from
those gathered in the committee room.
Mr.. Croker gave events a somewhat
dramatic turn n.hor o,tor ro,,,,,r -
