The city opened i nn account with the ba-ik when it wns made a city depository, llardsley nt that time was Treasurer. 1 think. No Interest was paid llardsley on the nccount. 1 never met Mr. llardsley as President, nnd 1 never knew him socially. At no time as President ot the bank did 1 havonny conversation with llardsley on the quostlon of deposit ordircctly or indirectly on the payment of inteiest. No lnterost was ever pnld on state monoy. " The llrst Intimation that wo bad that oiiio of tho inonoy dohoslted by llardsley was btnle money was when we were called upon to file a bond of SlfiO.oOD. 'J his Mr. Blngerly (who sucoceded Mr. l'attlaon as Presldeut of tho bank) aubseiiuontly did. lliuilsley dme to the bank In lttv.lnud ro l celved certlllcntes ot deposit. These cettlfl cntesworo gotten by llardsley from time to time, and It wns upon thee that Interest was pnld, about $bUU at one time and ISbU nt an other. , '"I he first Intimation that I had that the bank was paring llardsley Interest wns when i the cashier camo to me nnd said that Hatd-ley wantod three per cent, on his money. The I I nnk could not annul to pny this, and tho cer tlllcntes wete surrendered nnd then, count wlthdinwn. Certificates or deposits are Is-ued by nil banks ami intore-t pnld on them. The account for which we gnvo llardsley tho cortlll cates wns not a check account, and the money merely remained In tbe bank. We never paid llmilsley any lnterost on the account of the cltv." This concluded tho Governor's testimony. and after assuring tho committee that he would willingly upnoar hofore It nt any tlmo, he withdrew. The committee then rosumed the examination o' tho Mayor's .t ert accountntita lolatlvo lo the money loaned bv llardsley to a gro it number ot persons, as sh iwn by the stubs of bis ohoek tools, Tho sums loaned by llnrdsloy were mostly small.

Tho story of lluiklns's arrett and conviction is remarkable. Harklns waa a grocer at 1,93'J North Second stroot. Philadelphia, where his wife still lives. On Nov. 21, 1RH7. he and Thomas Cnllan ot Lowell were chnrced at the Dow Street Police Court. Loudon, with conspiracy for the perpe tration of ndrnamileoutrago. They had been watched for some tlmo by the London police. Callnn had a suspicious tin box nnd Harklns had suspected documents. Onllan's lodgings were searched, mid the tin box was found to contain dynamite. After a wiek's work the Scotland Yard de tectives announced thnt they had proof thnt the meu were tools In a Clati-na-Gael con spiracy lo assassinate the Queen. Itwassnid thnt the plot was known In Scotland lnrd all along, and thnt ( allnn and Harklns wete not arrested, until they wore virtually starving, having been deserted by the lenders of the conspiracy who sent them from this country. At the hearing on Nov. V8 It wns shown that a blunder oi Cnllan's hnd directed tbe police to them. He had thrown some dynamite on n dirt heap. A boy picked It up and thinking it was lime out It in a Btovs oven. There whs a lot of iiolso, and the stovo dlssppmred. Tbe case mado a sensation In 1'miImuiI. liverybody belleyed the twiinyiiiimlters would get a lifo sentence. The Uneoti gave tlUOO to the de tectives for saving her llto. There was llitlo evidence against Haiklns except his associa tion with Call an. Doth prisoners 'nld they were Innocent. Tho jury found tbsm gulltr. and they were sontenced to fllteen years each. Irishmen here believe thnt others of their countrymen who nro now In English prisons for offences similar to thnt of Harklns, will be pardoned before long.
