As Goldman told the story on the stand
the firm were attorneys for two creditors OF
Max Bros. bankrupts. Gruber employed
Goldman. who had been a salesman for the
firm. as a private detective. He was told
to get he confidence of one Harry Diamont,
a former bookkeeper. Goldman. after Ia
king Diamont to the ra yes, persuaded him to
see Gr,iber, who employed him to get evil
dence For this, Goldman alleged. Dia
mont received 81 900 cash and note for
81 600.
The case which they were working up

settled privately.
AbAaham Gruber took the stand and de-
clured that he mad paid Goldman $l55 in full
for his services.
The jury rendered verdict for $445 in
favor of Goldman. Gruber entered a siren

ALBANY, June 9.-Chairman q dell OF the

legislative triumvirs, Speaker Nixon and
Senators Raines and Malby. who run the
Legislature last winter as near as they posi-
bly, could along lines laid down by Mr..
Odell before he sailed for Europe in Feb
ruary. Speaker Nixon has informed Gov.
Higgins that Mr.. Odel Is to be here to-
morrow, and Gov. Higgins said to-day
that he would hold II conference with these
Republicans leaders in regard to the work
to be attempted at the special session Of the
Legislature, which convenes at noon On
Wednesday.
Gov. Higgins said tonight that he had
received requests to ask the Legislature
to consider about every measure Of i'm
portance which failed at the regular session.
including the local option bill for cities. the
bill repeating the tax ON the surplus Of sa =
wings banks. and cheaper gas legislation for
New York city. The Governor said, how
ever. that he was not prepared to say whether
he would recommend any matter except
the Hooker charges for the consideration OF
the Legislature. The inference from the
Governors remarks was that the Legisla-
ture would not be asked to consider any
thing but the Hooker case.
