KENNEDY'S LAWYER
DENIESPERJURYHINT
Issues Statement Defending Dead
State Treasurer After
the Funeral.

Buffalo. Feb. 1S-Following the funeral
to-day of John j. Kennedy. State Treas
urer. who committed suicide on Sunday.
Michael +. Dirnberger. jr.. his attorney
gave out a statement in which he denied
that District Attorney. Whitman, OF New
York. had intimated TO him that charge
Of perjury was to he made against Ken
nedy because Of his testimony before
New York grand jury in regard to ms
relations with Charles F. MURPHY IT.,
and George II. Mcclure.
He also cassed as absurd the statement
that a prominent Tammany official hal
control Of 100000 of state funds and
that Kennedy was 90 have testified IN re-
gard 10 this before the grand jury on
Monday.
Mr.. Kennedy tod me about the ques-
tons which had been asked of him oe-
fore the grand jury concerning his sup
posed connection with Mr. Murphy ard
Mr.. Mcclure in relation to the bonding
business" said Dirnberger. lie told me
that he answered that lie had no connec-
ton whatever with either Of these men
in the bonding business.
"The other article. TO the effect that Mr..
Kennedy was about to testify that a
prominent Tammany official had the con-
tro. of sS0000,000 Of state money and
named the banks in which deposits should
be made, and that certain bonding inter-
ests dictated TO said mythical politician
where said deposits were to be made
seems absurd upon its face.
"In the first place. the largest amount
Of money that the State Treasurer has
ever had under his control was in the
neiighborhood Of $e5.O0O.CD0. and that has
been only in the last few weeks. During
most Of last year the amount OF money
under the state Troasurer's control at 10
time exceeded s40,G000Op"
