MORE OWN IN N, I.GRAFT NET Former City Chamberlain Hyde, Friend of Gaynor, Is Now Wanted as Witness.

Hyde, formerly city chamberlain and close friend of Mayor Gaynor, as a witness was the pro gram outlined this morning by Emory R. Buckner, counsel for the committee. Mr. Buckner stated that Hyde’s name had been on the list of possible wit nesses since the campaign was com menced, but it was not until the con troversy involving Under Sheriff A. J. Johnson. Attorney George C. Norton, the alleged "promotion broker" in the police department, and Winfield R. Sheehan. Commissioner Waldo's private secretary, that Hyde's testimony be came important. The committee's counsel wants to know what information, if any, Hyde has of the grafting in the police de partment and the “bureau of promo tion,” where police officials could buy any number of stripes that their pock etbooks could stand. It was believed that neither Norton nor Sheehan would be called. Both men are originally from Buffalo and were intimate friends before coming to this city. Johnson was under orders to report to the committee today to continue his story begun yesterday upon the wit ness stand, when he told how, being led by "superheated curiosity," he hired private detectives, who trailed Norton to the apartment of Sheehan. Mr. Buckner said he wanted further light as to why Johnson hired detectives, and with whom he conversed before taking the step. Want to Konw About Buying Captaincy It was Johnson, to Police Captain John Reith, who made the first advances with an offer to have that of ficial, then a lieutenant, promoted to a captaincy if he would “come across” with SIO,OOO. Whether or not Hyde was concerned with Johnson in Norton’s movements is another question upon which Buckner wants elucidation. This same question Is to be put to Former Sheriff Nicholas Hayes, who was the first person to call Johnson’s attention to the alleged headquarters for the collection of police graft in the building at 115 Broadway, according to Johnson's testimony. Norton’s office is in the building at 115 Broadway. Thomas Hassett, confidential secre tary to State Engineer Bensel, who was mentioned in ReitH’s affidavit as having “been seen" in connection with the $lO,- 000 promotion, came here from Albany demanding that he be heard in self explanation. Commissioner Waldo will be called again as soon as all the other wit nesses are heard in connection with the Reith affidavit. It Was originally said that the amount in the Reith affidavit was $15,000, but It has now been reduced to SIO,OOO. Reith, who has been on the force for many years, compiled a table of prices for entrance and promotion in the department. He said it cost him S3OO to get into the harbor squad and S6OO for promotion to roundsman. A captaincy was worth SIO,OOO, and other grades were valued in proportion.
