A. To @ etory I had once told him when he had accused me of bargaining with him, a biblical story relating to a bar- gain Abraham made with the Lord, when the Lord said he would save the cities of Godom and Gomorrah if he found fifty good people in them. Abra: | ham eaid, “Supposing you find forty,” save them if there were forty, Abra- ham said, “Suppose you find thirty, until he bargnined down to five.", Q. He roferred to that ax Moses and the bulrushes, die he? A. Moses and the bulrushcs, I said, “All right, I will tell these people that.” Q. What @td you tell Brindell? A. said I certainly could not raise $26,000, So Brindell eald, “Now, T am going out of town." 1 sald, “Well, how oan they settle the thing ‘if you go out of town?” He said, “Well,” he says, “Let them see Pike. ‘now hix firat name, He is the doles gate,of the Portable Engineers. a. you have a talk with Pike?

As it died down, Volk naid in apologetic protest: “Well, I'm telling it to him now,” Q. Go ahead with your last conver- sation with Brindell about the Got m Tank job. A. I said, “Hello, Bob.” Whenever I expected there was going to be any troubje I used to call him Bob so as to kind bf take the edge off the matter, “Hello, Al," he said. “Are you ‘back in town, Bob?" “On, yos,"" he say ‘I have been in town and you have seen it, Have you been talking to anybody about com- pensation on the Gotham Bank job?” 1 sald, “Campensation?

I am dumb?" He says, “Pmy dumb, Keep your mouth ebu I aaid, “Oh, you want me to keep quiet.” He says, “Don't talk too much on the telephone; just you play dumb. Goodby.” And he rang off. Q. But you co-operated with the bank people? A. Very closely. Q And has the money been pald, or eny part of it? A. The money pever was paid. 7 Q. That was one case in which the hold-up did not work? A Yes. Q. The strike was settied none the lens? A The strike was settied through the Intercession of the Mayér, the Building Trades Employ- ers’ Association and, J think, the District Attorney. The job was re- sumed on the following Monday. Volk mid in another conversation Brindel) told him the Structural Iron workers had made an official com- plaint against the use of non-union lronworkere on jobs where the Build- ing Trades Council controlled the workers. Brinde!] sald the Council had employed him to act alono on the complaint “Oot ree, Al," Volk reported Brindoll as saying, “We'll have ¢o pull a few strikes here and there, But we're not going to pull our friends, Other witnesses during the morn- ing were Meye Mumberg, a con- tractor on a buliding at No. &6 West End Avenue. He said he paid over to Connolly Brothers, plumbing con- tractors, $5,000 to be paid to Brinde!!'s agents for calling off # strike omten- wibly caused by the presence of the 100 plasterers’ helpers not affiliated with the building trades council, The wame men returned to work after the payment, he said. Thomas and James Connolly were called and admitted handling the money, Untermyer tntimated that they were acting as friends of Brin- Aeli's agent Chapman, who with Pike demanded the $5,000.

Wendell, Comptroller- elect, to-day was the target of a pointed hint from Justice Kernochan that he would be held in contempt if he refused to answer questions about the letters which -have come to light concerning bond negotiations with W 8. Fanshawe & Co. but which were not produced originally for the John Doe tnquiry. The Justice conducting the inquiry Into the State's bond put- chases to discover if there ts a prima facie evidence of any crime, referred to the fact that the case has deve- loped one contempt citation, meaning that of Comptroller Travis, on whose Wendell has been chief deputy. Following this reminder, Mr. Wen- dell confined himself to variations of “I do not know” In answering ques- tions concerning the State Comptrol- ler's purchase of $2,013,000 worth of bonds from Fanshawe, until Justice Kernochan interrupted: “That seems to be the trouble with the whole transaction, Nobody seems to know anything about it, although they bought the bonde at about 8 points above the market.” When Mr, Wendel] appeared to-day he was accompanied by his new coun- sel, Louis Levey, of Stanchfield & Levey, supplanting Col. William) Hayward, who withdrew yesterday. | He explained that Mr. Wendell had come voluntarily and not in response to the subpoena the Justice issued yesterday, and asked for two days in which to confer. Justice Kernoctan refused, saying Mr. Wendell was not connected with any crime but merely was called to testify about letters which passed between the Comp- troller’s office, Mr. Fanshawe and A. L. Judson. Attorney Levey ad- vised Wendell not to answer. “We've got one contempt citation, we might as well Ko before the Grand Jury with another if necessary,” the Justice announced. “T've got to get my decision in to- morrow, It’s going to the GrandWury no matter what my decision a. don't want to have another contempt proceeding if I can help it.” ‘Wendell could not recall any cor- respondence with Mr. Fanshawe or tell\ why the Comptroller made Mr. Fanshawe hand over all the corre- spondence as one etipulation in buying the bonds. ‘ tice Kernochan refused to let Assistant District Attorney Peoora pry intdé the private ios, 2 afairs of the new Comptroller, sustaining an objection when Mr. Pecora asked: “Did you get a legacy of more than $10,000 from the estate of your father? The Justice, however, was inclined to insist on an answer when Mr. Pecora asked Mr, Wendell if he remembered approving vouchers in the bond sales by Mr, Fanshawe in 1915, 1916 and 1917, Mr. Levey objected and when rebuked for delaying the proceedings sald: “Tam here only as an office boy to get delay until this witness can con- sult with his real counsel, John B. | Stanchfield.
