Once or twice a year the good house
wife has thorough house cleaning. The
house has been swept and busted every
day in the year, but the housewife knows
that in spite of vigilance dust accumu-
1ates in cracks and corners, and is only
to be removed by special effort.
It's the same way with the body. You
look after it every day. You take all
the ordinary precautions Of cleanliness
and health. Yet the body needs its
special cleaning to nd it of the accumu-
lations of waste and poisonous matter

RICHARDS MAKES REPLY.
Declares He Did Not go Outside the Records in
the Carter Case.
(By lac Assoclated Press.l

tBy the Associated PreSS)
Washington, April 20.-Solicitor Cen
eral Richards today filed nthe United
States Supreme court a reply to the mo-
ton mad by the counsel of Captain Car
ter TO strike from the files Of the court
as irrelevant and scandalous" the So
licitor Generals brief in opposition to
Carriers motion to be admitted to bail
pending the decision of his appeal in his
habeas corpus proceedings.
Mr. Richards denies that he went out
side the record in his case, and asserts
that he alwa"s tries to observe strictly
the rules of the court recurring council
to copfine himself to the facts of record
in the discussion of case. He sets forth
that Carriers application for bail is sup
ported by affidavits of physicians to the
effect that the prisoners health is i'm
proved, and this, Mr.. Richards says. is
not only entirely outside the record, but
is false. tE
Mr. Richards also declares that Car
ter's counsel went outside the record in
the appeal case in averring that Carter
is an innocent man and wants to be re-
leased in order to be tried in the criminal
case in Georgia. He adds that to dem
cnstrate the falsity of this last state
ment. it was necessarv for the Solicitor
General TO state what the Government
has done in prosecuting the indictment
against Carter. and others in the Fed
cral courts of Georgia.

THE MAI. MARTIN SHORTAGE.
The Investigating Committee Has at Last
Finished its Work,

Judge r. d. Winston, of the commit
tee investigating the condition of the
Treasury accounts with the State insti-
tutions, left for his home in Windsor on
Friday. the work of examining the doc
tored accounts Of Maj. Martin being
practically complete. Mr.. f. M. Shan
nonhouse, of the committee, spent yes
terday in checking back over the trans
actions which concerned the Blind In
stitution, in order to find If there were
any errors in the previous investig1-
tion.
The various accounts have been very
thoroughly investigated by the mem
bers of the committee, who are thor
oughly satisfied that the full shortage
is to be found in the penitentiary ac-
counts, and that Maj. Martin paid back
to the other institutions the amounts
he had first taken from them, leaving
the entire shortage on the penitentiary
books. This remains, as the News and
Observer first stated. within a few dol
lars of $16,7 700 To be exact, it is $16,-
73965-all from the penitentiary fund
While he stole from all the other insti-
ltutions located at Raleigh he paid back
his stealings from them. 1t is the oni j
truth he has told since his detection.
He stole over $4,000 from the insane
asylum, making the amount of the
checks greater than the stubs and then
destroying the checks when they came
In. He paid this back in three pay
ments, one of $1,000. The payment was
of course made at the expense of the
penitentiary fund.
Mr. Shannonhouse went to Charlotte
yesterday and took with him all the
papers in the case. He will prepare
the report of the committees findings
in the matter, which will be examined
by Judge Winston and Mr.. Arlington
after which it will be placed in the Gov
ernors hands.
An interesting matter that is connect
ed with the large stealage is that Maj
Martin expresses surprise at the
amount, having frequently asserted
most positively that he had not taken
over $9,800, though when he first con-
fessed he said the shortage was $500
The exact figures depend upon the few
changes which the final investigation
reveals.

sey City today. The object of the meet
ing was to vote on the following proposed

CHI -
in the company. The protest was sub
mitted by Robert Green, and Marshall

posed amendment was unlawful and un-
reasonable and was an extension of the
business beyond the scope intended by the
charter of the company 1t said also
that Mr.. Rosenwald would hold the direc-
tors responsible for any loss that might
result from the adoption of the amend
ment.
The vote in favor of the amendment

shares voted against the amendment
were those held by Mr. Rosenwald. Mr..

panies report was circulated that the

ton of the Havana American Company

Mr.. S. j. Trfplett, of the American Fed

strike. BY actual count there were not
exceeding thirty-four present at the meet
ing. Mr.. v. G. Terry called the body to
order and introduced Mr.. Triplett, who
made some remarks on unionism, the con-
dition of the strikers and their need for
help.
. He said that when this strike started
the union had $2,700, but that far more
than double this amount had been spent.
OF the 1900 locked out operatives" some
three hundred had found temporary en-
ployment at other things but 1900 have
to be fed. For this purpose every tailor
in Danyille contributes 81 week, every
cigarmaker 81, motormen on the street
cars 81, carpenters so cents and so on
throughout the trades The members of
the textile union had pawned their
watches and other articles and put the
money in a general fund.
On motion OF MIR. Nelson collection
was then taken to send to the union at
Danville and the suggestion was made
that the Raleigh unions in the Federation
of Labor hold special meetings and make
contributions. The amount raised was
not announced.
Mr.. Triplett stated that assessments
had been made by President Gompers
of the Federation of Labor, but money
was needed before it could come in from
that source.
