A DEFICIT IN PRISON FUNDS.
Mai. w. III. Martin, Ex-CIerk of North
Carolina Treasurer's, Arrested
for EmbeZzIemenf

Raleigh, N. c., March H.-Gov. Aycock
to-day sent a special message to the
general assembly stating that deficit
has been found in the accounts of states
prison, in the Treasury Department,
amounting to about $4,000 so far as has
been ascertained to the present time
The deficit appears to have begun early
in the year 1900 or possibly before then
and has continued until about the last
of November of that year. The books
have been changed so as to force bal
ances.
This morning State Treasurer Lacy
sent for Maj. w. H. Martin, who has
been a clerk in the Office, until the 10th
of March, 1901, and confronted him with
the changes in the books. Maj Martin
admits the changes in the books and
confessed that he took the money. He
says he did not use it in his personal
expenses. but gave it to the church and
in charity. This afternoon he was ar
rested on a warrant charging embezzle-
ment. He waived examination and was
bound over to court in a bond of $4,000.
Being unable to give it he was sent to
jail. Maj. Martin is 60 years old He
came here from Harrisburg, Pa, in 1865.

THE P0LYGAMY BILL VETOED.
Gov. Wells Sees That 1t Would Prove
Boomerang and Tells why
This Is So.

Salt Lake, Utah, March 14-Gov
Wells has vetoed the Evans bill, relat-
ing to the making of complaints and
commencing of prosecutions in criminal
caseS, In his veto message Gov. Wells
said:
I'm my opinion nothing can be clear
er than that this bill, If passed, would
be welcomed and employed as a most
effective weapon against the very classes
whose condition it is intended to amelio-
rate. Furthermore, l have reason to
believe its enactment would be the Sig
nal for a general demand upon the Ma
tional Congress for a constitutional
amendment, directed against certain so
cial conditions here a demand which
under the present circumstances would
yydircely be complied with. While it
may be urged that in every event the
poor could be made to suffer is il not an
odious thought repulsive to every good
citizen of whatsoever creed or party, that
the whole state should thus be put
under a ban? Surely there is none so
selfish and unpatriotic as to argue that
this is preferable to the endurance of a
few insulated instances Of prosecution
unbacked, as they are by either respec-
table moral support or sympathy"
