Albany, Aug. 28. - (Special) - There was quite q stir in this city last month over the dismissal of eleven employees of the capitol on the charge of taking fees from visitors. The outcome is that Bryon CRONK of Candor, C. S. CAPRON of Binghamton, formerly of Richford, Thomas RILEY of Albany, Fred FUNDA of Troy, and William McGEARY of Ontario, Five of the eleven, are reinstated and ordered to report for duty Sept. 1st. The report which got out first that CAPRON was a Republican was an error as he claims that he is a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat and felt worse over the rumor than he did over the dismissal.
