PLATT COMPANY TOGRAND JURY Mayor Fagan Accuses United States Express of Frauds in “Watering.” ‘The United States Express Company, of which Senator Thomas C. Platt is the head, was accused yesterday of watering {ts stock and defrauding the municipality of Jersey City of thou- sands of dollars. The accusation was Geemed of suffictent moment by Mayor Fagan to have a complaint drawn, which has been submitted to the Grand Jury of Hudson County for investiga- tion. The watering was not done in the way of paper certificates, bw. by the connec- tion of a secret pipe with a city main, and the watering of the company’s stook of horses, two hundred of them, for nearly three years without paying a cent for the privilege. A @ischarged employes of the express company informed the Board of Watar Supply that the big stables at Elghth and ae a streets had been steal- Spe. milous William J, irph; . 140 Pavonia @venue,” Was Invited to visi: Mayor Fagan's office, where he made the ad- iulbsion, it le sald, that over two yous imade a connection with the city Bains a At she request of a man connect. th Mr. Platt's company. ler, superintendent of the Stables, was innocent of any knowledge Ot Lie Becret connection, and there ina great deal of myscery tis to who could benefited by the steal.

CANFIELD TALKS ABOUT PERSONS Jerome Sincere, Parkhurst Harmful and Gambling Not to Be Stopped. + MILWAUKEE, Fed, .—Richard Can- field, en route to Chicago, gave his views of Jerome, Parkhurst, gambling and wide-open towns before taking his + train. His briet interview may be given * as follows: CANFIELD ON JEROME: “Wel!, my opinion of Mr. Jerome would not count for much, [ am afraid. But I think he Is on the square and 1 wants to be honest and do what is ' wight. No, he js not a four-flusher or quicter, trying to enforce the faws as he sees ft. He plays favorit 8; Dut every one has to play favorites New York.” CANFIELD ON PARKHURST: “I think it is the general opinion in ew York that Parknurst has done a @reat deal to harm the town. The 90- ial evil, which he has rooted out of ed portions of the city, has be- come scattered all over New York. 1 am of the opinion that Mr. Parkhurst has not benefited New York. The onl. Teal way to root out the evil in human Rature is to make people so food that they do not want to do wrong.” CANFIELD ON GAMBLING: “Gambling can never be stopped Under the circumstances, It ls best to late It and let it run in the open. en hidden and in secret, other crimes @ccompany the evil.” ~! ———<————_ { Thief Got $10,000 in Bonds.
