Banker Hemingway Testifies In Interstate Inquiry

The Interstate Commerce Commission hearings into the New Haven lines reveal details of the Metropolitan Steamship Company of New Jersey and New Haven affairs. Grover C. Richards testified as a dummy treasurer, signing two $200,000 checks in New York on March 3, 1910, without knowing their purpose, while Chase corroborated portions of Richards’ statements. Discussions cover payments for legislative work and legal services, with figures including a $1,000,01 and a $69,000 check, and relate to stock dealings involving the Hillard Company and New England Navigation.
