New York, July 3.—Magistrate H, Pittsburgh, July -An estate Knderson Severely ' t New York, July 3. e appellate Givision of the supreme court yester- day unanimously affirmed the con- vietion of William H. Anderson, for- | mer superintendent of the New York Anti-Saloon league, before Supreme Court Justice Tompkins, of forgery in the third degree. The opinion, w Avoy, scored Anderson's story about the receipt of $24,000 from “John T\ King,” an individual whose identity Anderson said a mystery to him. Although Charles Whitman, counsel for Mr. Anderson, will scek permission to carry the case to the court of appeals, it was remarked that the odds were now overwhelm- ingly against Anderson, Yesterday's decision was concurred presiding Justice Clarke and es Dowling, Merrell and Finch, stice McAvoy's opinion, 28 type- written pages, rveviews the evidence | and the exceptions taken by Mr. Whitman to Justice Tompkin's charges.

Tt is not possible 6therwise to characterize the narration, except 1B say that it had every earmark of heing a fictitious concoction and one which it was al- most impossible for even the most gullible to credit.” Anderson was convicted last Janu- ary and sentenced to serve from one to'two years in prison.
