H. T. ALLEN UNDER ARREST
Used the Mail for Fraudulent Parposes and
Roped in Many Victims,
(By the Associated Press.)

Wilmington, N. c., March 13.-Post-
office Inspector Jere Connolly arrived
here this afternoon from Laurinburg, N.
c., where lie caused the arrest of T.
Allen, alias Dr.. Allen and Vi. Allen, a
middle eaged man employed as printer
on the local newspaper The charge
against him is fraudulent use of the
mails in that he advertised extensively
the sale of certain receipts and offered
as a prize with each order facsimile bills
to the amount of SIS, which he said were
printed on genuine ''B. N" paper and
could not be told from the genuine arti-
cle." The bills in reality were Confed-
crate notes, and Allen numbered his vic
tins from Maine to Mexico, several or
ders having been received from New
York State. He was given a preliminary
examination and committed to Jail for the
United States District court in default
of bond in the sum of $780, Allen also
had other schemes which he has persist
emily worked for a number of years.
The news & observer., 1901-03-15

Senators Burroughs. Foy and McNeill,
who were absent on Monday, are sworn.
For moment there is rustic OF
curiosity in the galleries, then silence.
Senators sit like craven images.
Judge Allen arises and addresses the
court He speaks deliberately coolly, but
in clear, emphatic tones. He has voice
that carries we'll and every word he ut
ters is heard by all present.
He begins by referring to the power
full lobby that has been at work during
the session in the JUDGES behalf. Then
he speaks of the charge that this is a
political persecution, and denies that
any consideration has influenced the
House except the public good.
The amount involved in the case $831) ,
he declared was small, but the principle
involved he considered vital If the
Judges, he asked, could put their hands
in the treasury and take out one penny
then they could take out thousands
with equal warrant Of law.
Judge Allen now proceeded to discuss
the Articles of Impeachment, stated
the facts that the Managers expect to
prove and discussed tie law governing
them.
In doing this he called the attention
of the court to the fact that the question
of improper motive does not enter into
thi scase except where it consists of
abuse of some discretionary power on
the part of the court.
The managers expect to prove, de-
clared the speaker, that these judges

grizzled. In his face is that which would
make you look at him a second time any
where. 1t is a strong face-that of
Spainhour. He is true mountain type
mind sharp-cutting, will indomitable,
heart true as steel and unbending where
right and truth are at stake.
And that man by his side, of swart
face and heavy stature is Judge Graham.
He comes from a family that has long
been distinguished in North Carolina his
tory. and he is a worthy son of honored
sires. He has intellect and will force
and learning beyond most men. A man
with living soul within him, sincerity
that knows no shadow of turning. He has
always been jealous of the peoples rights,
and now he walks into the peoples court
to demand that public officials charged
with high crimes and misdemeanors be
brought to justice.
In the procession, too, is Nicholson, of
Beaufort author of the bill forbidding the
Treasurer to pay White any money. Lit
tie did he dream, no doubt, when he in
troduced it, of the far-reaching effect it
was destined to have; and even now no
mortal eye can read to the end of the
chapter.
Hayes, of Chatham, is heavy, solid and
solemn, in body, word and action, but
with an understanding that Is quick and
active. He is lawyer of marked ability
and one of the ablest members of the
House.
And those two slender figures, coming
last in the procession are Shannonhouse
and Seawell. Though serving their first
term in the Legislature, they have made
fine regulations, Mr.. SeawelI's speech,
during consideration of the Impeachment
Resolution in the House was eloquent
and effective. Mr. Shannonhouse is es-
teemed by his colleagues as safe and
careful legislator.
These are the men-most of them
young men and all able lawyers-that the
House has appointed to arraign the i'm
peached judges at the bar of the Senate.
1t is duty that they would gladly have
escaped; but that could not be. Being
charged with it under oath and "in the
name of all the people of North Carolina
they have taken up the duty in the spirit
of him who said, in opening his worlds
history: "God being my helper, l can do
no other"
But now the Managers with their at
torneys are seated, and attorneys for the
Respondents are filing in behind Judge
Furches. Judge Douglas was not present,
being too unwell to leave his room.
They take seats on the right.
The roll is called; every one of the

are guilty of four distinct violations of
each:
First That contrary to the provisions
of section 8, article 4, of the Constitu-
ton.
Second That they have violated the
provisions of article IA, section 3, of the
Constitution.
Third. That they have violated the
provisions of section 8, of chapter 10,
of the laws of 1899.
Fourth. That they have violated the
provisions of chapter q, of the laws of
1889
Now he turned his attention to the
Answer of the judges, terming it IAN
answer and at the same time speech. =
He reviewed this answer, showing the
fallacy in the material points of it.
The law in regard to mandamus was
discussed and Judge Allen. declared
that proceeding of this nature against
the Treasurer was a proceeding against
the State. The power which made an
appropriation, he asserted, could with
draw it,
He spoke most eloquently and with
telling effect of the wisdom of the
trainers of the Constitution in placing
the purse-strings in the hands of the
representatives of the people. Il do not
think there is any provision of the
Constitution that has been wrought out
with so much labor as that giving the
people control of the Treasury"
Ignorance of the law, Judge Allen
said, excused no man and least of all
he thought it ought to excuse a judge,
and especially a pudge of the highest
court in the land.
He referred to the manner in which
the mandamus had been issued-the
evasionS and secrecy of it, and finally
the brazen defiance exhibited by refus-
ing to allow Judge Clark to file his
dissenting opinion.
The shifting of issues by the judges
in their answer was shown, and the
doctrine in Hoke VS.. Henderson dis
cussed, and 1t was declared that
through all the "ofhce holding" cases
a spirit of partisahship runs.
In closing he declared that this was
a great case; and he asked that the Sem
ate give it the consideration it deserv-
ed. He added: 1--WE demand a con-
viction because we have a right to de-
mand it,"
Judge Aliens speech was listened to
with the closest after ton. It was a
powerful presentation of the case.
He finished speaking at 1875 and the
court adjourned till today at noon.

The defendant waived examination

of Wake Superior court March 25th) in

Treasurer Lacy was at the trial with
his attorney, Mr.. S. F. Mordecai. On

After the trial he expressed great fear
OF being unable to give a $4,000 bond and
having to go to Jail, and talked pitt
fully of his condition. Treasurer Lacy
then agreed, in view of the confession
and surrender of the defendant, that
the bond be reduced to 81, 900 justified.
Ex-State Treasurer Worth, speaking
of Maj. Martins offense, said
Il was never so surprised in my life
as l was yesterday afternoon when
Treasurer Lacy called me to his office
and told me Maj. Martin had embezzled
the funds in his charge and falsified
the books. I had always trusted him
most implicitly, considered him perfect
~ honest and it was hard for me to
realize that he was otherwise"
How did he manage to get the money
and escape detection for so long a
timer" was asked.
According to his confession, he
took the money along during last year, .
replied MIR. Worth, but it was not un-
til since the investigating committee
had completed it's work in December
that ebegan to alter the books and
vouchers. And this is the way he would
do ii. Take for instance 81, ,003. Sc, this
would be made $1,603.66 simply by
changing an to a 6, and he would be
IN $500. He did that. Another case was
the change of $11O to $41O by turning
the figure l into a figure 4.
When this was done he would sim
ply draw check for the difference,
bring it to me or Mr. Denmark and we
would sign it without question, so great
was our confidence in him."
Mr.. Worth said his CWorth's) bond
was liable for the shortage, but that he
had bond from Martin in the United

The North Carolina Legislature is
to be commended for the interest it is
manifestiug to provide for good
roads. 1t is preparing q bill along
this line to cover the entire State, and
there is reason to believe that said
bill will become law without oppo-
sition. The bill provides that the
roads shall be kept in good condition
by convict labor, and it is thought it
will save the State considerable
money. Indeed it is gratifying to
note the general interest that this
most important subject is creating
sll over the country. The local su-
thorities generally are awakening to
a realization Of the fact that good
public highways are one of the ne
cessi,ies of this progressive age. No
section of country Oan offer better
inducements to settlers than good
roads, and we trust the day is not far
distant when this subject will receive
thst substantial consideration that
will make it q blessing to the entire
country.
