Congers counsel spent all their time in
assaillng the accused Senator's charac-
ter. In addition TO probing his connection
with the purchase of forest lands, now
the object of an investigation recently
launched by Governor Hughes they
delved into Aids bank accounts and tried
to prove that $500 which he sent to his
New York brokers ten days after he was
alleged to have received the $1,000 bride
in 1901, could not be traced to an innocent
source. They also arraigned him for in
vesting in the stocks Of the New York
company shortly before he
helped to pass bill benefiting that cor
pOration.
Aids admitted that his law firm re-
ceived 81 go as local attorneys fee for
the New York Central railroad in his
home district. But" ne said, "a man
doesn't have to quit pTacticing law be
cause he goes to the Legislature"
Aids seemed satisfied with the way he
acquitted himself today. But the inter
rOgations about his connection with the
forest land purchases were palpably un-
rehshed. Once he said in a low tone, as
Attorney Osborn came near him:
Now jim, you're hitting below the
belt
Aids had already testified that he was
employed for five years TO search titles
of land bought by the state for the Adj
rOndack preserve, receiving about $1,000
for his services. Osborn today questioned
him about the states purchase of land
from William Harris of Worthwhile
Don't you know that this land was sold
to the state by Harris for So an acre after
he paid 30 cents an acre for it," asked Os-
born.
Aids replied that his business was to
pass on the validity of titles and not on
values

The scenes about the bank today were
picturesque. outside the long line of de-
positors, herded by hundred policemen,
chatted volubly in half dozen languages.
Every now and then hysterical woman
would break line and make dash for
the bank entrance, only to be led back,
weeping, to her place. The pavement
around the building had been hastily
roped off and no one was permitted inside
the enclosure save depOstOrs.
Inside the bank the scene was of even

who jOstled each other around the paying
desks Conspicuously displayed behind the
clerks was a table on which was piled
