GREEN'S OFFICIAL ACTION CRITICISED BY COMPETENT PARTIES—THE UDA AERIAL LAD- DEL BUSINESS—STERNE'S ILLEGAL FEES. A reporter of the HERALD Visited several gentle- men yesterday Whose names are mentioned in tae serious indictments drawn up by the Law Com+ mittee of the Board of Aldermen against the Comptrotier, Their statements and views are given below, There did not appeal y reluctanse whatever to converse on Mr, Green’s lack of capacity, mfegrity and good mangers, Inaced, every one seemed to think be needed some in- struction on the latter point. THE COLLEGE OF THE CITY OF NEW YORK. It appears that Mr. Green attempted to inter- sere with the control of tne College of the City of New York, in direct violation of the plain letter of the law. He assumed suthority to audit bills for the iustitucion—a duty and right that legally Alexander 8, Webb, President of the Coliese, siated yesterday thet the unauthorized conduct of the Comptroller had seriously affected its credit; but they determined to check the usurpation in the most etiectual manuer. A plumber bad performed work ou the buildings calling for several tnousuud dojlars, ‘The trustees approved of tt and certi- Ded to the correctness of the bil. When presented to Mr. Green he thought It necessary to send one of bis extravagantly paid experts to examine the work, and it seems inat, on the representation of the latrer, he reftased to pay the demand, Legal proceedings followed, is the usage, and it was deciied that Green had no color or right to interfere in the premises. But great injury wa inflicted on the college in cousequence. Persons furnishing supplies de- clined to have any dealings with it when they heard that Green was to examine their gills, know- tog full well, no matter how jugt they night be and how much they might require their mouey, heedless and annvying delays were certain to oc- cur, The Comptroiler learned a lesson tn con- nection with this matter that las lad the effect of allowing tne trustees of the College of tue City of New York to attend to their duties without bis assistance or interference, THE UDA AERIAL LADDER Cass. Mr. Charies H. Hoages was found in lis office during the afternoov. He gave the following account of the Uda aerial fre ladder matter, cou- cerning which very grave allegations are made by the Law Committee of the Board of Aldermen, re- flecting. to say the least, on Mr. Green's rectitude, Porta, a resident o!
