Excerpt from Report of the Joint Committee of the Senate and Assembly of the State of New York Appointed to Investigate Corrupt Practices in Connection With Legislation, and the Affairs of Insurance Companies, Other Than Those Doing Life Insurance Business: Transmitted to the Legislature February 1, 1911

It began its hearings on September 27, 1910, and closed them on January 6, 1911, holding during this period public sessions on forty-two days, at which testimony was taken. These sessions were all held at the City Hall in the city of New York, except the session of October 21, 19110, which was held at the State prison, at Ossining, for the purpose of examining a witness confined in that institution. One hundred and eighty-four witnesses were called before the Committee and examined and pages of oral evidence and pages of documentary evidence received.

The Committee endeavored to take up the subjects which it was directed to investigate, in the order in which they were set forth in the resolution, but found it impossible to adhere at all times strictly to this order on account of the absence of witnesses.

Although its work was arduous and continuous, it was found impossible to take up all the subjects mentioned in the resolution.
