DOCK OFFICIALS CLEARED
JUSTICE MAYER EXONERATES THEM
AND DADY FROM BRIBERY CHARGES.

Justice Mayer IN the Court Of Special Sessions
yesterday afternoon handed down a decision ex-
onerating Dock Department officials from charges
Of bribery and deception alleged TO have been
practsed by them on the William w Brauer Steam
ship Company. and which charges were made at a.
hearing before the Mayor April p last by Ly-
man E. Warren, vice-president OF the steamship
company. Michael ]. Dady, the Brooklyn poll
tician, was included in the charges. but Justice
Mayors decision also exonerates Mr. Dady from
all blame in the
The case came up on the question of changing
of certain open piers used for the general COM
merce of the port into a closed pier the appllca-
ton for this change having been made on behalf
of the steamship company, who charged that their
company could not obtain closed pier which II
desired without the payment to certain dock of1-
cals Of bribe money. The case came before JUS
tice Mayer a request for an investigation made
to him by Dock Commissioner Hawkes. The de-
cision says in part:
It is apparent that the Dock Commissioner had
neither the inclination the opportunity to orng
about the lease of this pier in accordance with
his judgment solely, but. the contrary, that
he acted with great care and fairness and after
tive applications The proceedings before me have
Mr. Warren was hearsay. and based entire.y upon
such alleged information as had been given to MIN
among other things, that Dockmaster Fleming: in
connection with one Bowman an ana one Gaene{ @ hsq
Bowman had told him that 1t was always neces<<
a pier
The entire accusation made by Brauer was oaSed
upon conversations with Bowman. who, in so far
this subject is concerned was absolutely IRE
sponsible Bowman had no basis other than his
own imagination for the statements which he made
to Brauer, and Bowman himself in effect so testl-
fed. / therefore conclude that there is absolutely
foundation for the accusation or suggestion
made against the Dock Department, but that. on
the contrary. the officers Of that department did
only their duty, fairly and conscientlouSly Inc
charge at the public hearing before the Mayor
had therefore, for its foundation only the false
statements of a man who had no Acquaintance OF
transaction with the officers of the Dock Depart
ment with any other person who sought TO use
corrupt means in this connection
