Charles Be. Ackron of Tivoli fame and Frederick Robinson of West 121st Street along with William H. Houghton of Mount Vernon were found guilty in Special Sessions of conspiracy to defraud. The scheme involved a Plymouth Interior Construction Company deal to fit a Columbus Avenue saloon, using a forged Norfolk and Western stock certificate as security, leading to a bank discovery after a mucilage accident faked the paper.
