" "' I !! - ........I... .11.. I h-t this first occasion with arler, Mr. Cole man was present practically alt the time. Mr. Drier said he would not tnlk save In tho presence of Mr. Coleman. He told Qrler that hovwas prepared to give him money, Coleman having ex plained In advance who witness was nd what he wanted. Harris said ho told Qrler that $200 a man was his limit and Orler said that was rather small. The witness then went over the talk he had with Qrler about C. M. Clarke, the president of tho Sci-nn-ton ttaltway company and Frnnk Sllli mnn, Jr., tho manager of that com pany. COYNE WENT WITH HIM. Tho meeting on April 00 was then taken up. He was In tho dining room of tho Itudolph with T. J. Coyne when lie received a telephone message from Coleman to come to the b.ikery. Coyne said ho would go with him that ho wanted to talk the matter over. They were at the bakery for three-quarters of nn hour and tnlkcd over the matter of getting the ordinance amended. Ho did not make any tender of money to Qrler directly, but $1,400 was mention ed ns at the previous meeting. Tho witness was positive the councllmen did not say they could fix htm for what he had said to them. Ho was asked If ho was not told that he was suspected of being a detective. Coleman, ho said, told him that a man named Shea, a detective, had been ask ed by the councllmen to look him over and find out who he was. Shea report ed that he (Harris) was all right. Continuing ho jvont on to say that Coyne wanted to handle tho money in select council and assured him the amendment would go through like wild fire. Coyne told him they would have to bo careful for they were Jumping on tho councllmen, the grand Jury was investigating them and council men were inclined to be suspicious of everyone. Harris was cross-examined at length about his room in the Hotel Itu dolph, the furniture it contained and where the articles of furniture were located. He said he had the chairs S) arranged that the only one available to sit on was one facing tho door connecting rooms 24 and 25. Qrler told him ho might as well give him the money for he would have to do so eventually. WERE BLOOD SUCKERS. "These councllmen are blood-suckers," said Grier. "Thoy will take your monev and not do anything for vou. I never give them a cent until a meas ure Is signed by the mayor or oassed over his veto." May 2 when he met Giler, Calnln and Coleman at the bakery, Calnln was present during the whole conver sation. Toward the end of the talk Grier said he had been under some exoense and witness took out $50 and laid it on the table. Grier did not ask for this SZO, but he did as'; for $1,400. When witness laid the money on the table Grier was the only other person In tho room, Calpin and Cole man having gone out a few minutes before. Ho does not know that Grier took the money for after laying it on the table ho walked out. Witness was asked if he did not send a letter to Grier and said he had no recollection of having done so. A let ter was then produced addressed to Grier which Harris admitted was in his handwriting. Mr. O'Brien pro duced two $20 bills and asked the wit ness if they were not the two that ho gave to Grier In the Hotel Rudolph on May 9. Harris admitted that the bills produced were the ones in question, identifying them by marks they con tained. On May 11 he got $1,400 from Mr. Whitney, who said It was given to him by F. E. Beers. About 6.B0 that even ing Grier came in and after he had been there about ten or fifteen minutes he was given the $1,400. He did not take the number of these bills as was his custom because some one else had done that. He had not the memoran dum of the numbers but knows It ex ists. Grier put the bills ion his knee and counted them over. Witness told Grier to be careful and not lose them nnd Grier replied that there was no danger, that ho had before handled $20,000 of that kind of money. IN THE AFTERNOON. At this point court adjourned for the noon recess and when It resumed at 1:80 p. m. the cross-examination of Harris was resumed. Hi; was ques tioned at length about the meetlng-s he had with Qrler nubsequent to those in was examined on It- tho morning. Grier nt one of these meetings during a conversation about the new street ' i nil way company said it would take at least -jr00 a man to dp anything ngalust that ns the other side was , spending money freely. i Ho admitted bavins ben out until 2, 3 and 5 o'clock In the morning with i Colnman who ho said never seemed to I sleep. He admitted drinking a good . deal while around with the council- ' ln-n, but never become intoxicated. ' Han Is denied very positively that ho hud ever been into.ii'at.ed in tho I Opera cafo on Spruce f-treel with two iHimen or that ho was ejected from tbut place In as positive tcims ho do nlu'l having been nightly in tho com pany of lewd women while here. Dur ing his meetings with Qrler at ths Rudolph Whltnty and Anderson were tho only persons who wore in No. 25. No ono In No. 23 could boo into No. 21. On re-dlreet examination Harris paid that ho went to naloons a good deal "cause they were the places he wa3 most apt to find tho councllmen. Ho went to houses of itl-fnmo with E, A. Whitney and A. P. Anderson to get evidence about their paying for pro tection and to whom tho money wag paid. WHITNEY SWORN. That concluded Harris' testimony and E. A. Whitney was called and hwnrn. Ho is 34 years of age and has been a pilvat detective for 12 years. For three years he has been employed by the Sawyer agency of New York und was sent to this city by that agency. On May 1 ho saw Qrior at the Hotel Rudolph with Harris, Wit. ni'SB was In No. 2ii with Anderson. Thoy had made holes in the panel and through theso thuy could seo what was going on in the other room and hear what was said. Grjcr taid tho Scranton Railway company would Jmvo to do business with him If they wanted the ta reduced. He could have It done for It.ioi down and $1, 400 mote when tho work was com pleted, On May 0 he again raw Grier ut the Hotel Rudolph n the morning, Orler said ho had the rmini'llinen In line and was willing to go ahead as soon as the $1,400 was produced. Grier also said ho was willing to go wjth Harrh I to Philadelphia nnd nee President Clarke and ecnvlnce the latter that his company would have lo do business with him (Qrler). There was some talk about tho franchise anolhor trol-l.-y r.oinpnny was Itylr.t; to get and then Harrh gave Qrler MC on account. Mny 11 Qrler called again nnd wit ness !av Hartli giro Qrler $1,4C0, He raw Harris count over the money to Qrler who placed it on his knee and ulso counted It and tlitn placed It In his poekot. Ho saw Qrler nt tho Aeademv of Music on May 10, and nt the Rudolph on May JO, when Qrlor sold he wanted ifiOJ for throe addi tional councllmen ho wanted to keep In line for Harris. Qrler told Harris It would tnkp at lenRl fGOO a man to block the franchise for the new com pany. Personnlly Qrler could not do anything because ho was handling money for tho new company but would Introduce him to a man who would hundle tho money for him. WHITNEY ON THE RACK. The cross-examination "of Whitney was concluded by Attorney John F. Scmgg. Aftur coming here ho visited Mr. Sturges and Mr. Beers. The wit ness described In detail the holes they put In the door between 24 and 23 to enable them to see and hear. Whllo In Ibis city bo visited houses of Ill fame three or four limes nnd spent money thisro which he obtained from Captain Snwyer for expenses. On sev eral occasions lie got money fiom Mr. l!"ei3. Once he got $!!o0 or $300 and on another oecaslnn $l,400. This money he got at the request of Harris and turned It over. Ho might have ob tained money on another occasion but wns not sure about that. The witness denied that he, Harris and Anderson had divided up the $1, 400 among themselves and then ar ranged to put It on Orler. Mr. Scrai'g p.Miinlned Whitney at some length as to the amount ho spent In gambling houses, houses of Ill-fame and sa loons In this city. The greater part of the money the witness said was spent In gambling bouses but It would nut amount to $r,0 all told. Whitney admitted that he played poker with Harris In this city at their hotel from la to Sunday night of this week until about r, o'clock Monday morning. Ho denied that he was pulled In a raid of tho Opera cafe on Sprue j street while he was here ir the spring with :evetal lewd women, and of hav ing offered SCO If he was not exposed. The moniy he spint in these places was for the purpose of finding out If they were paving for piotection. He did similar woi'k for the Lexow In vestigation in New York. DETECTIVE ANDERSON. A. B.
