HAVE NEED FOR ROBIN.
Sentence of Fallen Banker Deferrea
for a Month.
New York, March 14 The Supreme
Court will withhold for one month
sentence upoh Joseph G. Robin, guil
ty by his own plea of larceny from
the Washington Savings Bnk, in, or
der that Robin may continue to aid
District Attorney Whitman - in the
grand jury investigation of the, Car
negie Trust Company. Robin was
down on the calendar for sentence
on March 27th, but the postponement
was announced tonight following a
conference among counsel and Justice
Sea bury. ' '
"I found that Robin's presence was
needed before the grand jury;! the
district attorney said, "and . I was un
able to get matters in his case in such,
shape that he could be sentenced on
March 27th."
Both Mr. Whitman and Samuel J.
Goldsmith, Robin's lawyer, denied a
report that Robin wished to withdraw
his plea of guilty and substitute one
of not guilty.
There has been no promise to Rob
in that his sentence will be mitigated
because of evidence he has given the
State in the Carnegie Trust Company
investigation, Mr. Whitman declared.
This had been left entirely to Justice
Seabury.
The grand Jury continued its inves
tigation of the Carnegie Trust Com
pany's affairs today with the examina
tion of several bank officials and
clerks.

mittee on traffic for the proposed In-tra-coastal

feet and a depth of 18 feet, will be
$35,250,000. This is less than the
value of the property lost along the

Important Witnesses Tell of Damage
To Monitor Puritan.
Norfolk, Va., March 14. Professor
Philip R. Alger, who is on duty in the
Bureau of. Ordnance in Washington,
and a member of the Board of which
Captain Knight Is the- president, stat
ed that the explosion caused much
more serious damage to the Puirtan
than was anticipated by a member of
the board. He said that in the opin
ion of Captain Knight it was unlikely
that any serious, damage would re
sult from the tests of the Isham ex
plosion.
Speaking of a memorandum "which
had been prepared in Washington,
from -suggestions of Captain Knight
and others members of the board, and
which is in evidence in the case, Pro
fessor Alger stated that the memo
randum had been prepared more for
the satisfaction of Inventor Isham and
Congressman Hobsoh than for any
fear that the suggestions contained
therein" would be really necessary.
He said that he did not think that
this memorandum- had been trans
mitted to the commandant of this
navy yard as it had no blearing on
him at all.
Askefl by Major Leonard if he
thought that the experiment was con
ducted in proper manner, Professor
Alger said that he thought it was and
that everything connected with the
actual experiment was properly car
ried out.
