Although this strike has been on

panies have not, up today, caused their
rev Crivers to present themselves and
be Vouehed for and licensed as re-
quired by law before they may act.

cease. The sight of the city protect
ing by police escorts wagons driven
by unlicensed drivers in violation OF
law, is exciting just criticism. We
have continued this protection only
because we expected from day to day
that on second thought you would
not, especially at such time, continue
such object lesson of disrecpect and
disregard Of the law. Disrespect and
disregard of the law by persons and
corporations who should be the first
to obey the law has been the source
of most of the evils and abuses which
have accumulated in this country dur
ing the last % years. You are also
using unlicensed wagons in violation
OF law. Unlicensed push carts and
, vendors wagons found in the streets
are taken to the corporation yard and
iinpounded there. Are YOU not able
to see how demoralizing it would be
to exempt YOU from the rule that ap-
plies by law to all without distinc-

Howell, a clerk in the Knapp bank,
he was asked what was done when
there was shortage of currency.
He answered that C. P. Knapp told
him to order more, either from New
York, Binghamton or Callicoon. He
also stated that one Saturday in the
summer of 1908 there was but $500
or $500 in the bank. When the cur
rency was low they also went around
among the business men of Deposit
and secured deposits from them in
order to carry the bank along.
Mr.. Howell identified letters,
notes, statements, etc. Most of the
letters were correspondence between
C. p. Knapp and. Harry Rogers at
Callicoon, relative to the money
transferred between the two banks
and wiring of money to the Chase
National bank to cover drafs. Once
the defendant asked Rogers to trans
er money to Deposit, telling him he
had drawn $4,000 from the Bing-
hamton Trust company, and saying:
81 don't want to crowd the
mOurneTS 100 muCu
Knapp Bros. began paying Az
per cent. interest Jan. l, 1908.
Entries were offered regarding
one transaction of s150,000 and one
of $4,000 in connection with the
Callicoon bank opening. Objection
to the receipt of this in evidence
was made by the defense. District
Attorney Meagher said:
1--WE propose to show the entries
are false and that no such transac-
tion ever took place"
Miss Pauline Munson, an EN-
ployee of the bank, said in one ac-
count Frank Lyon came to the bank
and wanted to draw some money.
MIR Lyon wanted currency and c.
T. Knapp tried to persuade him to
take q draft. Mr.. Lyon offered to
pay the express on the currency if
Knapp would pay it. On cross-eX-
animation she said it was usual to
keep about $4,000 currency in the
bank
Harry B. Rogers in his testimony
said that when the Callicoon branch
was started $4,000 was sent the
Chase National bank, $4,000 was
deposited to the credit of the CALI
coon bank, and $1,000 in currency
was sent back for use at Calicoon.
That ended all the important tes-
timony for the week.

New York, June 23.-Summer cos
tunes on men have made their appear
ance unblushingly In the lobbies of the
hotels and along Fifth avenue and
Broadway. They displayed a variety
of design and some originality. Lots
of commuters came into town wearing
crash and linen suits, but they looked
as hot as the men who were sticking
to fiannels.
About the coolest looking man to. be
seen was John G. Carlisle, former sec
retary Of the treasury. In honor of
the season he had donned a gray suit
of some thin material with a long
frock coat and a white stovepipe hat.
Mr.. Carlisle has worn a white stove
pipe hat in the summer time for many
years. Those who saw him said that
more white stovepipe hats ought to
be worn in New York In the summer,
if only for the sartorial effect and the
cooling influence upon those who pre-
fer other styles of headgear. Mr.. Car.
isle is enjoying the best of health.
