TRIAL OF EX.TREASURER CARDOZO.

lhe trial or eX-State treasurer +. l.. Car-
dozo, was commenced at Columbia on Thurs.
day last, Judge Townsend presiding. Attor-
ney. General Conner and Solicitor Abney, with
Messrs. Miles and Youmaus, appeared for the
State, and Samuel w. Melton, ESQ.,, for the
defence. The jury, as empaneled, embraced
four white men and eight negroes. General
Conner opened the case with the following
statement
The case which I shall submit to you is
briefly this: Mr.. Cardozo was Treasurer of
the State. Under one Of the acts of appro-
priation, there was an unexpended balance of
$4,000. That was, of course, the money of
the State. No one else had any right to it,
and it should have remained in the treasury
until disposed of by the Legislature.
| A taking of it was unfortunately, so easy,
and detection apparently so difficult, that it
seemed to have been hard to resist the temp
tation, and according to the testimony that
will come on the stand, it will appear that
Cardozo originated scheme to appropriate
that money, or part of it, to his own use.
Under the law, the money could only be
drawn from the treasury on the joint certiG-
cate of the two houses therefore it was essen
tial to success that Gleaves, as President, and
Woodruff as Clerk of the Senate, and Lee,
as Speaker, and Jones, as Clerk of the House,
should all be in combination, and without
! their aid and assistance, success was impossi-
Bile. Cardozo saw Gleaves, and it was ar
ranged between them that certificate for
legislative expenses to the amount of $4,000
should be drawn. 1t was drawn in the fcti
tious name of c. L. Frankfort, the initials Of
which reversed are those of F. L. Cardozo.
There was at that time not sufficient money
in the treasury to pay the $4,000, and Wood
ruff, or the Republican Printing Company,
who were in possession Of the certificates Of in
debtedness which had been issued to them
under the provisions of an act, and which cer-
tifcates were very near y at par, transferred to
Cardozo for himself Gleaves and Lee, $2,4O0
of certificates of Indebtedness, and took the
legislative pay certificate of $4,000, first CIV
ing these three $500 each, which was their
share Of the $4,000. When the taxes came in
this certificate of $4,000 was paid by Cardozo
and the money divided; $500 each went to
Cardozo, Woodruff and Jones. When that
payment was made, the transaction was COM
plete and the robbery of the State effected.
That is the case that | am advised will be
sustained by the testimony, and the question
which 1 shall submit to you is the simple one,
"Has the law been violated"
So. Lee, coored. former Speaker of the
House of Representatives was sworn, and said
that, in the fall of 1873, after what was called
theextra session of that year, Cardozo told wit
ness that there was an unexpended balance of
four thousand dollars in the treasury, and
proposed to witness that certificate of in
debledness be drawn and the amount distrib-
uted equally between himself [Cardozo] the

he demonstrated with the clerks about the

ness that the reason why he did not expose
them was because he did not consider it his
duty; and that while these things were going
on, they could not have been put into the pen.
itentiary that when he gave up his office he
turned over to Mr.. Leaphart $4,000, and of
that small amount belonged to the credit of
the Republican Printing Company; that
when he kept the company's balance he
would pay the money out on other accounts; F.;
that he kept the short account Woodruff pro-
posed to give him in exchange for the long
one and put them both in the same wrapper.
Adjourned till 10 o'clock, A. M.
SATURDAY, Nov. 8.
When the Court assembled, the examina.
tion of Cardozo was resumed and continued
until late in the afternoon. The testimony
elected was of an explanatory and palliative
character, and has only general bearing on
the case. Among other things he testified
that Hardy Solomon had offered him bribe
of FIVE thousand dollars, when visiting his pri-
vate office, to pay certain fraudulent claims,
amounting to twenty thousand dollars. Sol.
ONION contradicted this statement, and alleged
that he had given Cardozo three or four thou
sand dollars as part of the fraudulent sum
in this transaction. Solomons
cashier, Sealy, testified that when he pre-.
sented the claims, Cardozo's clerk demurred
to payment, when Cardozo told him it was
none of his business. The jury is kept to-
gether and guarded every night. {.
