I understood him to say that by the testimony taken before the investigating committee of the Senate it had been proven that within a day or two judges in the State of New York had issued sixty thousand fraudulent naturalization papers. I am a member of that committee. I have been present at all its meetings. and.I have never heard that testimony. I do not think it will be found in the evidence printed. I think it has no other foundation to stand upon than the assertion of the Senator from Massachusetts. There were in the year 1868. according to the testimony taken before our committee. Some sixty thousand naturalization papers taken out.
