lain Charged With Forgery.

NEW YORK, August 1.-The case of
former City Chamberlain Charles H.
Hyde, who was indicted for bribery as a
public official May 1, 1911, is to be
called for trial at the October term OF
the criminal branch of the state supreme
court unless a further delay is granted in

The charge against Hyde was that he
forced the Northern Bank of New York
which later failed, to loan $4,000 to the
Carnegie Trust Company. which also col
lapsed later. and in return got loan of
$13. SEQ from the Carnegie Trust Company
in the name Of his secretary, John V.
Smith. The lever he used to force the
$4,000 loan by the Northern Bank to
the Carnegie Trust Company was de-
clared to be his power over deposits of
city money. which the Northern Bank Of
ficials desired.
