FAIL WITH LIABILITY
OF MORE THAN $500, 600
Consolidation of broadway and 9th
Avenue RcHtaurnntu Claimed
to be Illegal.

Petitions in involuntary bankruptcy
were filed against George Constan-
tine, Inc, with two restaurants at
Nos. 22S3 and 26O2 Broadway, against
George Constantine, as an individual,
operating a restaurant at No. 564

tering Company, formed last August
to take over all three places.
Liabilities Of George Constantine,
Inc, are estimated to be S125, 900 with
assets OF $4,000; George Constantine,
individually, is said to owe about
500, 900 and be actually worth about
S.. 600, and the Partisan Catering
Company is estimated to owe $500, 200
and be worth about 500, 900. The pc
titioning creditors are Morris u.
Deutsch, Katheryn A. Roth and Gene
Francis, with claims against the three
concerns totalling $4,000.
At the, offices of November and
Jaffe and Marcus Helfand it was said
the petitioners contended that tle
consolidation of the three establish
ments into the Partisan Catering
Company was without consideration
and illegal. The dlsproportionatc
overhead expense of the Fifth Avenue

ASKED $4,000 Job
Transit Board Counsel Ad-
mitS Offer of Tammany
Member Was Later.
BOARD GETS SETBACK
Witness Fails to Throw Light
on Why Specifications
Were Altered.

1t was acknowledged to-day by
Clarence ]. Shearn, special counsel to
the Transit Commission, that the
changes in specifications for trackless
trolley cars for Staten Island were
made months before William r.
Crompton attempted to get himself
engaged as salesman for the Atlas
Truck Corporation. This acknowl-
edgement was made during the ex-
animation Of Allan r. Cosgrove, Vice
President and General Manager of the
corporation.
Cosgrove fixed the time of meeting
Crompton as May II. 1922, while the
contract for traclfless trolley cars en-
bodying changes in specifications was
made more than two o.months before.
After Cosgrove fixed the date to-
day. Judge Shearn remarked that, in
all fairness to Mr.. Crompton, it now
does not appear that the specifica-
tions were changed because "Cromp-
ton was not retained as New York
salesman at $4,000 year salary by
the Atlas Company"
The impression that Crompton had
knowledge of the changes came from
his efforts to be retained as salesman.
During his negotiations, Crompton
showed Cosgrove a picture Of himself
marching at the head Of the Tammany
Society's Liberty Day Parade between
Mayor Hylan ad Charles f. Murphy
Crompton told Cosgrove, the latter
testified to-day. that he pointed to the
photograph as an indication of "haw
I stand politically in New York. -
Cosgrove absolved Crompton from any
responsibility in changing the specifi.
cations.
The Atlas concern had been a sue
cessful bidder on the original contract
for trackless trolleys. Why the
change was made could not be
answered, After the change, how
ever, the contract was awarded to the
Trackless Trolley Corporation of New
York.
