De Julie Co. Got
Start From City's
Cash, Says Officer
Coal Concern Never Incor-
porated Till $25, 900 Was
Received Through DIR.
Day, Treasurer Testifies

An advance Of $4,000 Of the city's
money by Dr.: Jonathan G. Day to the
De Julio Coal Company virtually
started the company on its Industrial
career. Mrs. Edith M. McKeon, secre-
tary and treasurer Of tho firm, told
Commissioner Of Accounts Hirshfeld,
presiding at yesterdays session Of an
inquiry into charges Of misconduct in
office against DR.. Day, that up to the
time De julio received this payment
the company had done little or no
business.
De Julio was commissioned by DR..
! Day to purchase 100000 tons Of coal
to be sold to the city at 1855 and re-
sold to the city's poor at below the
prevailing retail price. Shipments of
1900 tons daily were to begin on Au-
gust l, 1918. On July 81 De Julio re-
ceived $4,000 from DR.. Day. Not a
ton Of this coal was eyer delivered, it
Is asserted.
Mrs. McKeon testified that the COM
pany was not incorporated until the
$4,000 was received. Part Of the
money, she testified, was used in pur-
chasing machinery and an automobile.
w. b: Loudoun, an accountant in the
office of the Commissioner Of Accounts,
testified that the books Of the COM
pany did not go further back than 1918.
Commissioner Hirshtield and Mayer
Goldman, attorney for DR.. Day, were
at swords points throughout the ses-
sion. Goldman charged again and again
that Hlrshfield was acting as both eX-
aminer and judge. After Julius Good
stein, an accountant in Commissioner
Hirshfield's Office, told Of seeing thou
sands Of cards and circulars strewn
about Queensborogh Market advertis-
ing the Plaza Community Club. Mr..
sioner Of Accounts, in report to the
Mayor recently, charged that this club,
headed by DR.. Day, was wrongfully
exploited in connection with the De-
partment of Public Markets.
ut is a scandal that you be prose-
cutor and witness in this case" Mr.
Goldman said. "The introduction of
all this has nothing to do with the
charges made by Bennett There is
no proof in the records as to who
sponsored the prospectus. All this
testimony is for the purpose Of sus-
tanning your report to the Mayor.
Samuel Cassell, manager for William
P. Goodman & Bro, East Fourteenth
Street, testified that he had purchased
S62.50 worth Of stock In the Plaza
Community Club because he was in1u-
enced by Dr.. Days name on the adver-
tising matter.
A new clash arose between DR.. Days
attorney and Mr.. Hirshfeld, culmi-
the lawyer from the room.
Dr. Day took the stand and resd a
prospectus of the Community Club to
show that reputable men were inter
ested in the enterprise. The hearing
will be continued to-day
