EX-LORD MAYOR’S DENIAL
COAL CONTRACT CHARGES (United P.A.—By Telegraph — Copyright) SYDNEY, Wednesday. Mr. Justice Thomson, the Royal Commissioner appointed to inquire into the matter of coal contracts entered into by the late Sydney City Council, resumed the inquiry to-day. The former Lord Mayor, Mr. Stokes, in the course of his evidence, denied the allegations of Richard Woof, exsuperintendent of the civic powerhouse, that Woof had paid money to witness. He also denied that he had gone to ex-Alderman Uoldsworth’s hotel with Woof, or telephoned telling Woof to meet him, since the commission began its sittings.
