CONCERTS STORY >.
DENIED BY BLACK
HORSE CAVALRY
Bridge Lobbyists and Former
Members Put on Stand to
Refute "Bribe Tale"

ALBANY, y. Y, Feb. 24rA dozen
or more mild-mannered men were pa
raded across the witness stand in the
Senate chamber today and smilingly
pointed out as members OF the "black
horse cavalry" accused by eounse for
Senator Benn Conger of holding up
the bridge companies. Al n time or
another since 1901 all had served I'M the
Assembly, some offered highway bills
~disapproved by the bridge interests and
others were members of the committees
on. rules and internal affairs, where,
Conger alleges, in 1901. two of these
measures were amended or killed to
suit the bridge companies. on payment
of Sc. 600 to Senator Aids and two
others.
Ailds's counsel put these witnesses
on the stand to disprove Conger's testi-
mony 80 far as it reflected on them, and
thereby invalidate his charges against
Aids. The members of the internal
affairs committee declared that they
had never been approached by the
bridge interests or offered a bribe for
their influence. The introducers of the
highway bills explained their origin,
and said il had nothing 10 do with
hostility to the bridge combination or
any expectation of profit from these
corporations.
Former Assemblyman Bedell. whose
name was brought in as having made
to Conger a proposition regarding
amendment of one of the highway bills,
denied on the witness stand that he
had had such a conversation as Conger

Receiver Now in Charge of All
fairs, Investigating.

BOSTON, Feb. 24.-Former Governor
John l.. Bates, as receiver, was today
in charge OF the affairs OF the National
City Bank OF Cambridge, which was
closed yesterday by the comptroller OF
the currency on the discovery of a
shortage or $14a, 900. This amount, il Is
said today, ma o be the total of the
alleged defalcation.
Coleman. the young booLkeeper OF
the bank, who is said to be in the West,
kept a private account at the bank and
another as treasurer of the Boston
branch of the Kissel Kar Company, of
which he was the manager. 1t is stated
that he would give checks for consider
able amounts, which were cashed at out
side banks. AS he handled the mai
and clearing house correspondence, the
checks came back to him from the
clearing house and he was able to de-
strov them.
The amounts, it is claimed. were then
checked up against the accounts oil
ONE of the heavy depositors of the
banks. the correct statements being
sent to the clearing house, hut the
drafts not showing on the statements
TO depositors victimized or in the
statement given the bank officials at
the close of the days business. 1t Is
said that through this means the fall
ing off in the bank deposits from $780,
600 three years ago to SIPS, 900 was
more seeming than real.
Coleman, as bookkeeper of the bank,
received a salary OF s12 a week. His
family. however, is in good eircum-
stances, and 1t was generally supposed
that he received an allowance from his
father.
