BY GRAND JURY
Steel Millionaire Implicated In
PittSburg Graft
ALLEGED BRIBE OF S52,5OO

Paid to Stewart, 1t Is Charged, to In\
fIuence Votes of CounciImen to
Choose Banks In Which Accused
Was Interested to Become Deposi-
tories of city's Money-PresidHn
Makes No Defense
Pittsburg, April THE sensation
predicted in the Pittsburg municipal
corruption expose occurred when the
grand jury returned a long present
ment in which it recommended the in
dictment of Frank N Hoffstot, presi-
dent of the Pressed Steel Car COM
pany, and one of the most prominent
business men in the country.
simultaneously in open court Emil
Winter, president of the Working
mems Savings and Trust company,
pleaded that he had no defense to
$40, 900 bride to ex-Councilman Nor
ris Einstein.
The following in abbreviated form
are some of the most startling findings
in the grand jury's presentment made
public last night:
That Frank N. Hoffstot, president
OF the Pressed Steel Car company,
and president of the German National
bank of Allegheny, and prominently
identified with other banks, paid to
Charles Stewart, an ex-select conn
Gilman, the sum of $50, 500.
That the money was a bride to in
fluence the votes of councilmen to
pass an ordinance choosing three
banks in which Hoffstot was inter-
ested as official repositories of the
city's millions.
That the arrangement for the pay
ment of the money to Stewart was
made in the spring of 1908 and that
she late James w. Friend, at that
zine an Official of the Pressed Steel
Car company, was involved in the
transaction.
Frank N. Hoffstot, as president OF
the 4Tessed Steel Car company, re-
gently figured prominently in the pub
lie eye while a strike was in progress
at his plant at McKees Rocks. Dur
ing the long months of suspension
there were many riots and many per-
sons killed, and the state troopers
were called out.
