Ten of Contributions.
NEW YORK, April 15. ~Richard Cro-
ker was on the stand yesterday before
the Mazet investigating committee.
John F Car',1011 the Tammany leader’ 5
chief deputy, was also put through a
course of questioning in the afternoon.
Judge Joseph F. Daly, whom the Dem-
ocrats refused to renomin te,f0r justice
of the supreme court last fall, told of
his treatment by Mr. Cioker and Tam-
many, while other piominent witnesses
contributed testimony that went to
make the day a most notable one in the
investigation into the city’ s affairs,
The examination of Richard Croker
was a remarkable one, chiefly by reason
of the answers which he returned to the
questions piopounded to -him by Mr.
Moss. He was brief and direct, as he
always is, and he took advantage of
the many opportunities offered him to
retort in a manner that evoked applause
frequently from those gathered in the
committee room.
Mr. Croker gave events a somewhat
dramatic turn when, after refusing to
answer several questions concerning his
private affairs, he .held up his right
hand and said impressively ;
“If you can show me where I have
taken a single dollar from this city, you
can cut this hand off.”
When the Tammany chief went on the
stand at the beginning of the day’s ses—
sion, Mr. Moss conducted a line of ques-
tioning which Mr. Croker evidently be-
lieved was a loss of time, for he sud—
denly leaned forward and said:
“It is not necessary to bring up what
e3 erybody knows. There is no use play—
ing to the gallery; there is no use mak-
ing speeches. I am the leader of the
party, and I acknowledge it. All these
people me my friends, and I am going
to stick to them all the time. Just give
me straight talk. I am going to give
you straight talk. That is all.”
Mr. Moss said he would accommodate
him, and he endeavored to do so. He
drew from Mr. Croker the fact that the
Tammany chief believed that all the
offices of administration of all depart—
ments should go to the victorious po—
litical party. “To the victors belong the
spoils,” he added.
Continuing, Mr. Crokei‘ said that
when the Democrats placed men in of—
fice the party expected to have those
men do what the leaders of the party
asked them to do.
A matter that Mr. Moss gave atten-
tion to was Mr. Croker’s connection
with the auctioneering business con-
ducted by Peter F. Meyer, by whom the
majority of the judicial sales are ‘con-
ducted. Mr. Croker said he had been a
member of the firm for some years, and
as a true Democrat he expected to be
befriended in the way of profit from the
sales.
"Then you are ’1' Oiking for your pock-

of?” said Mr.
"All the time, the same as you are,”
rc'c-ri'ed the witness.
"To the boss belongs the lions share
the plunder. " sneeied Mr .Moss. '

\"18 called during the course of the aft-
@1001, s. :d that he had been notified
in the early part of last year that he
need not expect a renomination. This
came directly from Mr.
Croker, and it was, he Said, the result
of his refusing to appoint a chief clerk
of the couit of common pleas recom-
mended by Croker and because he he d
re. used to make a judicial or de1 for the
10mm al of the legal sales to 111 Broad-
way where Peter F. Meyer’s firm is
located.
Jud Ee Daly said that he 11? d paid $7, -
00-0 in as; cssments for his two nomina-
tions by Tamm {1113' Hall. '
Former Judge Roger A P1",3'01
follow ed Judge Daly , testified that he,
too, had contributed to Tammany on
account of his nomination, he having
sent a check for $10,000. payable to the
\E.‘ h 9
order of Richard Croker, chair ion of
the finance committee of Tammany
Hall. This check was returned to him
the following day, and he was asked to
make the check payable to the bearer,
This he did.
Another interesting figme on the Wit-
ness stand was John F. Caiioll, Mr.
Croker’s chief lieutenant. Mr. Carroll
did not prove a very easy witness, and
because of his refusal to answer ones
tions Mr. Moss suggested that he might
have to have Mr. Carroll sent to prison
for contempt of court. Later he asked
that Mr. Carroll’s refusal to answer
questions be r.- 'iorted to the legislature.
The cause of all this was the question
as to whether 3121‘. Carroll had any con—
nection with the Consolidated Ice com-
pany or whether he held any Stock
therein. It developed during the exam-
nation that Mr. Carroll had given up a
which, theo-
Mr. Moss pointed out that thei-efme
Carroll was without visible means
per. The Witness, however, denied this,
while at the same time he denied that
he was receiving a. salary from Mr..
Croker or from Tammany Hall. or from
anybody that the counsel could name
Mr. Carroll made the admission that
” vhat Mr. Croker says goes.” And, ac—
cording to him also, it goes with (21;.
erybody connected with Tammany Hall
or holding his office through the good
wishes of that organization.

NEW YORK, April 15.-—R. G. Dun &
There is' still increase in all legitimate
business, and the productive power of
great industries increases even though
some of their stocks decline. The sharp
reaction in speculation 3. week ago in
no way affected the producing capacity
of furnaces or mills and has been in
part recovered, while the disturbance of
business caused by the formation of
ure ceased. The money market is in
safer and more‘ wholesome condition
and in spite of four heavy payments by
large syndicates, amounting to about
$50,000,000, has grown easier.
,Thevoutput of pig iron April 1 was
245,746 tons weekly against 228,195 March
1, with 115,118 tons decrease in stocks
unsold and 16,600 in warrant stocks, in-
dicating a consumption in manufacture
of 1,056,043 tons in March. The haste of
40 other furnaces to get into operation,
more weekly, has helped to keep prices
of pig quite steady, although strong,
but the demand for finished products is
far from satisfied.
