Death of Pennsylvania contractor linked to capitol graft case

John H. Sanderson, a convicted Pennsylvania capitol contractor, died in New York from heart disease complicated by Bright’s disease. His death comes amid worry over the capitol scandal and the fate of other implicated officials, including former State Treasurer William J. Mathues and George F. Payne. Sanderson had been convicted in Harrisburg in March 1908 of conspiring to defraud the state of more than 5 million dollars in furnishing the capitol, and his retrial had been postponed due to ill health.
