(RESINALD 7 FORMER MAYOR M GUIRE OF SYRACUSE INDICTED Fillmore Condit Tells Grand Jury Politician Attempted to Coerce Him Into Making $5,000 Contribution. An indictment charging James K. McGuire, former Mayor of Syra- cuse, former meinbes of the Democratic State Committee, reputed mill- jionaire, widely connected financier, with soliciting campaign funds from a corporaton, was found by the Grand Jury of the Court of General Ses- sons to-day.
