Distressed to Find Such Corrupt
 Conditions

Hallston Spa, N. T., Aug. Is Pe- Justice Heffernan closed the Sara toga Springs gambling investigation today with bitter arraignment of conditions disclosed by witnesses.
 "I have been shocked" the jus tice said, 'by the disclosures at these hearings.'
 Justice Heffernan, who was ap- pointed commissioner by Governor Smith to conduct the investigation, singled out the testimony of Jules Formel convicted gambler. for com ment. Formel accused District At torney Andrus of accepting money for permission to allow gambling places to operate.
 "I hop. for your sake. Mir. An drus, that what Mir. Formel has said is not true" tie justice said. q hope for the sake of the bar of the state and the public citizens of the state that what he has said is not true, It would prove sad, indeed, if an officer of the county and state, sworn to uphold the best traditions of the state. should prove faithless to his trust. If these charges are true, you must concede that you are not fit to hold public office"
 Justice Heffernan also severely criticises three witnesses-James c. Fennell Almeron F. White and Mat thew Byrnes-who. the justice de- clared. "came down here under ad- vice from somebody and refused to testify. The three were jailed and sought release on an application for writ of habeas corpus, which Jus tice Nichols at Cobleskill, denied.
