There were no extraneous frills to the

bare corruption among Democratic

mayorality campaign in New YORK
city. OF none Of these charges, how
ever, could the witness speak Of his
own knowledge. They had come to
him in the gossip Of contractors and
the small talk of politicians. NC
Guire testified that he had heard
