After the adjournment of the Metro- politan Street Railway hearing this af- ternoon De Lancey Nicoll announced that he would seek to have charges of conspiracy brought against certain per- sons, He would not mention names be- cause lhe wae unable to see the District- Attorney. In the examination of Willlam N. Amory Mr, Nicoll for Mr. Vreeland en- deavored to establish a connection be- tween Mr. Keene and Talbot J. Taylor in a proposed raid on Metropolitan stocks. Amory dented that a bear raid was contemplated. He said that it was his understanding that both Mr, Keene ard Mr. Taylor were opposed to any bear raid, He denied that they asked him to hold off until fall or that he had ar- ranged for the Keene firm to go short of Metropolitan stock previous to the publication of his figures that the rail- | road was not in good condition. Cablegrams were read showing that Amory was in constant cable commun!- cation with William A, Hazard In Paris before and after he sprung his Metro- politan expose, and that he had advised Mr. Hazard that he did not think con- ditions favorable for the purchase of stocks. The examination of Mr. Amory ‘had not been concluded when an ad- | Journment was taken to April 1. Before beginning his examination of Mr. Amory, Mr. Nicoll produced a score or more of cablegrams, presumably the originals sent by Amory to Mr. Keene in Eyrope last summer. Occasionally in his ef&mination he referred to these cable- grams, Dentes Advice from Schurman. Mr, Nicoll read an editorial in a mors~ ing newspaper which contained the in- sinuation that Assistant District-Attorney Schurman had exceeded his official au- thority in recommending former District- Attorney Philbin to act for Amory in the civil proceedings against the Metropolitan company. “Mr. Schurman did not advise me to retain Mr. Philbin,’ said Afnory, ‘nor \aid Mr, Schurman have any interest in any civil sult. I happened to mention to NIGOLL OF AMORY CHARGES.

Taylor for the purpose of investigating the affairs of the Metropolitan. In answer to a question Amory sald that he supposed that J. Coleman Drayton had been retgined to collaborate with him in looking “up the condition of the finances of the system, Payments by Taylor. “Did you not have a contract with Mr. Taylor to recelve a certain part of the $4,400 given to Mr. Drayton?” asked Mr. Nicoll. “No,” replied the witness. “Mr. Drayton and Mr. Taylor had a contract, by the terms of which Mr. Drayton was to be allowed to use the money as ho saw fi. His fee was to come out of it. He paid expert accountant Hertle more than $1,000, and paid me some of it for minor expenses. The $2,000 I re- ceived from Taylor I was empowered to use as I chose.” “When you went to Mr. Keene and Mr. Taylor, did you not have an idea that the publication of the figures you had would have @ depressing effect on the stock market?” “I ha@ no figures; only a general knowledge of the situation.

President Orr, declared it was highly imperative that immediate measures be taken to end the etrike, else serious de~ lay on the work of the subway with consequent great logs to the city would result, "I see no wey of determining tiie matter unless the Mayor consents to ect as an ambitrator, and, as chief offiatal of the city, which may become parious- lyinvolved in this matter—endeavor to | @ettle it from this office at City Hall.” ‘Then if you fai!

PENNELL MADE THREAT Ls AGAINST BURDICK. There was a Sur of surprise at the hearing to-day when the Rev. “Burdick told me during a talk we had that Pen nell had never openly threatened his lite, but he said that Pennell told him in as many words that unless he (Burdick) brought a halt, and quickly, to the divorce suit, something dreadful would happen. Burdick told me at that time that he feared Pennell, who wrecked his home, about as much as a child would a snail. I always thought afterward that Burdick considered Pen- ~ nell a coward, and I don’t think he feared him in the least.” ip The witness then continued to tell many interesting bits of converte: tion he had with Burdick. ; He said Burdick was a man of high moral cheracter, a man with termined mind and a person who could be relied upon to do his x anything he undertook.
