OLD COURT CLERK CLEARED
McCabe, SO Years in Office, FIX
onerated by Magistrates.

The Board OF City Magistrates by a vote
last evening exonerated James McCabe'
who has for thirty-nine years been police
court clerk, from the charges brought
against him by William Mccarthy. an at
tendant in the Jefferson Market court. Nc
Carthy alleged that McCabe had suggested
that they work together in getting lawyers
for prisoners and divide the commissions.
Mccarthy testified that McCabe had come
TO him and said: You are an old police
officer and know the game. You get the
names Of prisoners. find out how much
money they have in their pockets, and II
there is anything in it We will split 1t up
The witness said he neither agreed nor
refused to take part in the scheme.
McCabe's answer to the charge was an
unqualified denial He told OF his thirty
nine years of service. and said that no re-
Election had ever been cast upon him be-
fore After the examination Of Mccarthy
and McCabe, the board, in executive ses-
sion, quickly exonerated the veteran clerk.

James T. Burns, a bookkeaper. Of As

hearing Of the taxpayers charges nIed
against President Gresser OF Queens before
Commissioner Ordway in the Queens
County Court House, Long Island city,
When, at the noon recess Yesterday. ne
took the floor and demanded that the indi-
vidual who impsrsonated him on the pay
roll of the city be arrested He had been
named as the owner of a horse and cart
that paid good dividends last year.
1 never owned a horse and cart in ny
life and I never had a horse and cart IN
the employ OF the city he said II object
10 having my name handed around rs the
owner of a fake outfit. Instead OF running
me through the papers as the owner OF a
tin horse and cart. why don't they arrest
the thief who collected the money from the
city?"
There was interest yesterday. too in the
search for the shade Of 2. Welsh. who
continues to draw his pay from the city
with unfailing regularity despite the as
seruon OF the attorneys prosecuting the
Charges that he has been dead three years.
In talking Of campaign contributions,
Commissioner Ordway said Il want the
city employees to understand that they do
not have 20 contribute to campaign funds
I am well aware it has been done and IS at
times considered the proper thing, but
I think it is about time It was stopped. It
would be q good thing to have a stringent
law passed prohibiting city employees from
ma king campaign contributions Of any
kind
Several foreman who have been in the
city employ for a number of years testi-
fed that during the former Cassidy admin
istration they handed their contributions
to Matthew J Goldner. who was then Su-
