Jef. Davis Charged With Stealing TIVE
and a Half Millions.

anu q Haaf millions.
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. ia special
to the Press has column interview be
tween a staff correspondent and General
Joe Johnston, in the course of which he
charged Jeff. Davis with stealing large
amount of money. He desired that it
be distributed among the soldiers, as
they had received no pay for months,
and SO wrote to Mr.. Davis, after he fled
from Richmond to Charlotte but Mr..
Davis paid no attention to his sugges-
ton. In answer to question as to what
he knew about the final use to which
the money was put, General Johnston
is quoted as saying: alt followed or
preceded the head of the civil govern
ment Of the Confederacy to the South
about the time Davis went in that di-
rection."
"Have you any idea of the amount
of specie Mr.. Davis carried South ?''
"Colonel Paul, an eminent artillery
officer of the Confederacy, and now
prominent lawyer of Richmond, a man
of high character, told me that he in
spected the specie before its removal
from Richmond, and after it had been
loaded, ready for transportation. He
said there was carload of it. AS he
only saw it boxed, ready for shipment,
he could of course give no information
as to the amount of dollars and cents. |
General Beauregard, however, was in
command at Greensboro |
while President Davis was there, and |
doubtless had an opportunity of know
ing more accurately the amount of
money with the President than most |
any one, except his INN ediate political |
friends. He told me that he was con-
vinced that the President had $780,

wagon loads of specie in the train. This
would be in perfect harmony with Col
