VINO BpeculRted for Bank Cashier-Ems
beLuement Wrecked the Institution.
NEwBURdH, March 25.-MAtters pertain
ing 10 the Affairs Of the defunct Cornwall
Bank, which was ruined not long ago by
Cashier Cummlns, who was indicted and
found guilty, came before Justice Kelly
in Special Term this morning. and a New
York broker got a terrible overhAuling
by the Court. The action was begun by
several stockholders 70 compel the directors
10 make good their losses.
Harold l.. Benedict, a member OF the
firm Of Jacob Berry a Co. Of New York,
which failed not long ago for 5000 900,
was called as a witness to show Cashier
Cummins's operations with that firm
which were the alleged cause Of his downfall.
Benedict took the stand smiling. but left
1t with his face wearing a pea green color.
Benedict said that Cummins dealt with his
firm about two years.
Justice Kelly looked at the witness sharply
and said; did you know that Cummins
was connected with a country banki'
Mr.. Benedict answered that he knew
he was connected with a bank.
Were you dealing with other bank cash
iers In speculative acts7'
Mr.. Benedict said he thought not. nor
could he tell how much money his firm had
got out Of Cummins.
Turning to the lawyer engaged, Justice
Kelly asked II this man, meaning Benedict,
had been prosecuted. When the answer
came that 1t was 10 be regretted that he had
not been, Justice Kelly with Indignation said:
The pity Of 1t is that the people who get
the money, who lay the traps for these men,
are allowed to 60 scot free. All over the
country bank cashiers, bookkeepers, trans
fer clerks and receiving agents are led
away by just such firms as these. They
get the money and are not punished, while
their victims are sent TO prison. Here in
Orange county you indict this cashier,
but you did not indict the man who got the
money. The pity Of II. Many a man is
doing time In Sing Sing, many home has
been broken up by these transactions, and
the man who gets the money escapes pun
ishmsnt, have no patience with It,
have seen this sample Of witness on the
stand before
Mr.. Benedict wflted In his seat At the
Courts indignant arTaiEnment.
Cummins's defalcation was about St5, 900.
The bank was completely wreoted.
