PROBING BABDSLEY’S METHODS.

Pertinent Questions Met by Evasive An-
swers—Tho End Drawing Near.

HARRISBURG, Sept. 21.-—The legislative
investigating committee met in the sen-
ate chamber. The first witness sworn
was Auditor General McCamant. He be-
gan his testimony by giving an outline of
the duties of the auditor general’s office
and the method of conducting business
there. After he had concluded Mr. Few
look him in hand and propounded numer—
ous questions relative to the auditor gen-
:ral’s connection with the Bardsley mat-
ter. The first question of much impor-
tance which he put was:

“Why is it that you permitted John
Bardslcy to retain the money received
for retail liquor licenses which had been
paid June 1, 1890, and which was due the
state on July 1, 1890?”

Mr. McCamant stated that he had called
many times on Bardsley, received promise
after promise, both by word of mouth
and in writing. In June, 1890, he had
called on the treasurer, and Bardsley
stated that he was busy with retail liquor
licenses. “I called on him almost. every
week, and said that if he did not pay he
would get into trouble. He stated that
he would remit just as soon as possible.”

Mr. Few again asked: “Why did you
allow one year to elapse before settle—
ment?”

Mr. McCamant positively stated that he
had done nothing of the sort. Few re-
ferred to numerous letters which had
passed between Livcsey and Bardsley, and
which Mr. ch emphatically declared re-
vealed the full outlines of a great c0n~
spiracy planned by Livesey and directed
against the state. Mr. McCamant une-
quivocally declared that he knew nothing
at all of any of these letters.

The committee then adjourned until 7
o’clock Monday evening, Sept. 28, when
they will again meet in Harrisburg and
continue in session until the investigation
is completed.

A RUN FOLLOWED.
Treasurer Ostrander’s Defalcation Cre‘
atcd Uncasiness—A Prisoner.

KINGSTON, N. Y., Sept. 21.—The excite-
ment occasioned by the defalcation of
Treasurer Ostrander, of the Ulster County
Savings institution, was intensified some-
what by a continuous run on the bank by
anxious depositors, hundreds of whom
flocked to the city from the surrounding
country on the receipt of the news. The
bank was prepared for the emergency, and
all deposits were paid on demand, the bank
having added to the cash on hand the sum
of $300,000 received from New York. All

assistance in case of necessity.

Treasurer Ostrander is a prisoner at his
home in the custody of the chief of police.
At the opening :' the court of sessions
Monday applicat ion will be made to Judge
Cody, of Hudson, for his admission to bail.
Ostrander has made a general assignment
of his property to Captain Jacob H. Trem—
per, of the Romer & Tremper Steamboat
company, giving preferences to his bonds-
men.

Heir to a Fortune, Yet a Burglar.

CORTLAND, N. Y., Sept. 21.—George Mee,
Edward Garri'fi’ and Daniel Thompson,
the latter colored, were arrested in Syra-
cuse on a charge of burglarizing the cloth-
ing store of L. Black & Co. at Moravia
last Wednesday evening. They were ar-
rested while trying to dispose of the pro—
ceeds of the burglary. Mee and Garrity
are connected with the most prominent
families in this county, and their parents
are heart broken over the scandal. Mee
is heir to $200, 000 when he becomes of age,
and is the son of Charles Mee, patentee of
Mee’s reclining chair, and a well known
business man. It is thought that Thomp-
son led the young men into their trouble.
Sheriff Bortinich searched Thompson’s
home and found clothes, neckwear, hats,
etc., supposed to have been stolen at Mo—
ravia. These, together with the boys, will-
be turned over to the Cayuga county au-
thorities.

Flore Records Broken.

NEW YORK, Sept. 21.—The carnival of
sports on the Harlem river and the Man-
hattan field under the auspices of the Maui
hattan Athletic club was a decided suca
cess. Twenty thousand people witnessed
the games. The occasion was the dedica‘
tion of the Manhattan field as the outdoor
home of the Manhatt n Athletic club.
Records were broken as ollows: One mile
walk, 6m. 36 2-55.; half mile running, 1m.
542-45.;'throwing 56-pound weight, 34 ft.
6% in.; putting the 16-pound shot, 46ft.
7% in.

Fell Fifty Feet to Death.

SYRACUSE, N. Y., Sept. 21.——Ex—Alder»
man Samuel Kent met Witha tragic death.
He fell from a. scaffold above the fourth
story of a new block ih West Fayette
street, a. distance of about fifty feet, and
struck his head on a flagstone, fracturing
his skull. Death was instantaneous. Mr.
Kent was a miner in California some years
ago and accumulated considerable wealth.
Returning to Syracuse, he became an ex-
tensive salt manufacturer and afterward
a. building contractor.
