GRAFT" STORY CREDITED.
Gouernor's Action on Bank Il fair
Not Determined.
icy TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.l

Albany May 2g.-Entire credence Is given
here TO the report of alleged combination OF
four Senators in the Senate Committee on
Banks TO raise bribe OF $4,000 by represent
ing that this combination could exert enough
influence on Bank Superintendent kilburn to
prevent him from issuing charter to the Bank
of the Commonwealth, in Brooklyn. This seems
the more likely because 1t is known that one
of the worst scandals of the session centred in
this committee namely, the open and prazen
attonopt on the part of some OF its members to
amend the bill standardizing the bank invest
ments for savings bank funds so as to take
care of the bonds Of the Chicago and Eastern
IuinoIs Railroad a scheme only checked when
Governor Higgins served notice that he would
veto the bill
Tho scheme seems to have been worked IN
this way: Superintendent Kiburn, acting IN
accordance with the statute, declined TO issue
a charter 10 the persons desiring to form the
Rank of the Commonwealth. because OF his dls-
so+tsfaction with one member ofFthe proposed
staff Of the new institution This man was
eliminated and in due time. but after some oe-
lsv the charter was issued. But in the mean
time the combination had served notice on the
projectors OF the new company that they must
"corne 10 the 'front.' to the extent of SSOOO, OF
the combination would exert its influence on
inst this. The Attorney General and the BANK
ing Department, as a result of the failure ana
scandal attaching to the German Bank IN Bul-
falo, had designed a number OF new laws 10
meet dangers shown there, and these oills were
before the Senate Banking Committee, and We're
held I'D there as a matter Of fact FOR some
time The combination is believed to have de-
clared its hold on Mr. Kilburn to be through
this legislation
No one believes that the combination actuall9
even made a suggestion TO Superintendent Kill
burn but the whole incident was summarized
by the Governor this afternoon thus:
AS long as there are fools there will be this
sort of thing. l imagine that a great zeal OIL
money is paid every year because OF alleged IN
fuence. No doubt some one may have collected
money through their alleged influence on me,
but what you do with that sort OF thing
The people paying are merely dupes.
AS to any action. the Governor would say
nothing, merely awaiting something more tangl-
BILE. If evidence is furnished. the matter will be
pressed by District Attorney Addington. of Al
ing seems TO have been done in Brooklyn. where
the local District Attorney must act. 1t is en-
tirey possible for the Attorney General to inter
in such case and prosecute. If the Dis
trict Attorney fails to do Finally the legis-
lature investigate at the special session if
II chooses.
The Banking Committee consists Of Senators
Stevens. chairman; Gardner, Prime, Barnes.
Gates. Hasenfug and Foley.

VETOES SALARY BILL.
No Increase for Under Sheriff or
assistant Deputies.

Albany, May 29.-Governor Higgins has vetoed
a bill of Senator Fitzgerald increasing the sal
ary Of the Under Sheriff of New-York County
from $1,000 to $4,000 year, and that OF twelve
assistant deputy sheriffs from $1,000 to 81 500
The Governor in vetoing the measure says:
This is city bill. although the city of
New-York is the paymaster. 1t does not re-
quire the approval OF the city. AS 1t does not
appear that competent men cannot be retained
at the present salaries. am of the opinion that
the interests Of State county and city do not
require to approve the measure
The Governor announced tonight that he does
not intend TO sign a number Of bills which are
before him. authorizing the payment Of the
salaries of persons appointed to public office
or employment in violation OF the Civil Service
law. He made public a general nenora ndum
which he will file with the bills although he did
not announce what measures came within this
disapproval. In the memorandum he says:
Many bills have come to my hands which au-
thorize persons who have been appointed to or
employed in public positions in violation of the
Civil Service law to go before the Court Of
Claims or the Controller of the city Of New
York to obtain the audit of claims for services
l have disapproved such bills the ground
first, that the appointments were made in vio-
1ation OF law, and that the law cannot be sus-
tained II persons so appointed are to be al
lowed TO collect from the State or the civil d.
visions thereof for services rendered by them
because all such persons have an adequate rem
edV at law.
