 The resignation said:
 Fully aware that demands are being made on you for my resigna- ton and to save you further em- barrassment because of this, and without reference to or considera- ton of the merits of the allegations made elsewhere, I respectfully ten- der you my resignation to be ef- fective at once.

 In accepting, Mayor Murphy re- piled:

 Grand Jury Report
 The grand jury, in its report had to say about Golden:
 Among other beneficiaries of the Hayes-Leary regime was John M Golden, of New Haven, now direc- tor of public works for the city of New Haven. Golden sought re- ward from Comptroller Leary for his political activity and in conse- quence secured from Comptroller Leary 8 contract for the sale of a quantity of cement to the city of Waterbury in 1892. Pursuant to this claimed contract, Golden received approximately $8,0O0 which appears on the available records of the city as having been paid to the New Haven Supply company, the name under which Golden chose to con- duct this transaction. There is no record whatever of the actual re- ceipt by the city of the goods claimed to have been sold by Gold en, and for which the city paid approximately $8,0O0, so far as is known, without the approval of the board of finance. The city's checks payable to Golden or to his New Haven Supply Go. were cashed by Olsen at the Waterbury Trust com- pany. There are no records to indi- cate payment by Golden of any sum to any person for the material. The Grand Jury has therefore, conclud- ed, that the sums received by
