NEW HYDE'S DEFENSE; SAYSfSGUILTY "His Alibi Is Full of Holes," Moss Tells Jurors in Clos ing Argument. HOT ATTACK ON ROBIN. Counsel for Ex-City Cham berlain Declares the State's Star Witness Is Insane. A verdict In the case of Charles H. Hyde, former City Chamberlain, tried on a charge of bribery In connection with the allegation that h forced Joseph J. rtobln, head of the Northern Bank, to loan IISO.iiOO to the crumbling Carnegie Trust Company when that In stitution's capital had been tmpitred. may be rearhed before midnight. M ix P. Steuer, aeeiriated In the de fense with John B. Stanchfleld, summed up for Hyde this morning, and Assletsnt District-Attorney Frank Mom made the final argument for the State, closing late this afternoon. It was believed Justice Ooff wouW at once deliver his charge and that the case would go lo the Jury by 8 o'clock. Mr. Moss In his closing argument at tacked the testimony on "Robin's sanity introduced by the defense. He insisted that Itobln was sane, that his story was Hue, and that Hyde waa guilty of accepting a hiilie which wit given to him In the nature of a loan. He at tempted to rip the alibi set up by Hyde, declaring it was full of holes. Mr. Steuer. In summing up, assailed Robin for his schemes of high finance. He declared the defense had shown that Itobin was suffering from euch mental delusions as to make Ills story unw'orthy of belief. SAVS ROBIN MADE THE LOAN TO SAVE HIMSELF. He jiolntetl out that Robin wa deeply Involved In the affair of the Carnegie Trust Company, and that the failure of tho Carnegie Trust would have resulted In the failure of the Northern Bank. This, Mr. Steuer contended, was the Im pelling motive for the 1130,000 loan by the Northern Bank to the Carnegie Trust, and not ny threat or promise from Hyde, which threat and promise, the State alleges, constitute the bribery charge against the former City Cham berlain. Mr. Steuer said Hyde was tried for no transaction other than the $13fl,000 loan, "and," he continued, "there has been not one whit of evidence here that I single unlawful dollar era seed the palm of Hyde." CARNEGIE HAD CONFIDENCE IN CUMMINS. He went over the relation between Cummin and Hyde, declaring fhar was nothing of a questionable nstw In them. He said Cutnmlns stood so well In U10 that he was able to borrow 12, 000,000 from Andrew Carnegie. "No wonder," added Steuer, Oom mln could get city deposit from Mr Hyde for the Carnegie Trust Company. " Steuer then entered into a eltrlollo at tack upon Robin. "Robin," he aald. "wrot a latter to Mr. Hyde commending Cummin. Now there la no honest man in th world, ac cording to Robin. Robin has attacked th honesty of J. Piarpont Morgan and August Belmont. He attacked Clark Williams former Stat Superintendent of Banking, at whoae horn Hyde met Cummins H has attacked former District-Attorney Jerome, awaarlng Mr. Jerome had told him to feign Insanity He ha attacked the bonor of Mr. Jus tice Seabury. dsclsrlng that honorabl jurlt detlled hi robes of offlc by a--ceptlng a plea of guilty tvtn after Itobln had told him he was not guilty There has been no man too high or honorable for Itobln to assail." Mr. sieur then took up tho question of Hyde s alibi and reviewed at contld (table length the tesilrnon offered by the defense to show that Hyde was .it hi home In Roslyn, L.
