KING CASE POSTPONED

Mr.. Jno. NJ King. who was on Thursday
indicted by the special grand jury on the
charge of accepting a promise of $500 and
other benefits from Contractors Gasser,
GUIDE and Weinb-unn in return for his
vote in their favor on their bid for city
work, was yesterday arraigned in the
| Police Court before Squire Graves and
the case continued until next Monday.
His bond of $500, given Thursday night
by Mr.. D. O'Sullivan, was renewed until
next Monday.
Mr.. King yesterday refused to make any
statement of his case. referring en:uirers
to his attorney, Mr.. L. O.. Wendcnburg-

the faces of the hundreds of specta tors
in the courtroom when the adjourn
ment was announced. In the courtroom
were prominent citizens in all walks of
life, city officials, ex-oficiais. contrac-
tors, business men and lawyers. There
was a very widespread and general de-
sire to hear the inside of the case, the
statements Of Messrs. Casser. Guide and
W-einbrunn. which cannot be made public
now until Monday at the earliest, and
it may be ten days later.
Mr.. King, with his bondsma1. Mr.. y.
OSulivan, was early in court. While
extremely reserved he did not impress
one as being under a very heavy strain.
He spoke to several friends cordially.
and for a time was in conversation with
Commonwealth Attorney Richardson as
to the postponement a few minutes
later the case was called. being first on
the docket.
Then Mr.. King presented Mr.. Wenden-
hurg's letter TO the court. Mr.. Richard
son objected to a continuance for ten
days. because he said. he had some en-
gaGements himself and suggested Mon
day. by which time he could consult
with MIR. Wendenburg as to a day on
which the hearing could be gone into
The court agreed to this. and Mr.. Kings
bond Of $3.50 was renewed by Mr.. O'SuI-
Ivan. There was a dead pause in court
during all these proceedings. the pause
of expectancy. a tension which was easily
felt by all in court. and when the usual
form had been gone through a sort of
a sigh of relief.
Immediately afterwards Mr.. King was
asked If he cared to make any statement

as to the matter must come from my
