Expert Testimony Ruled Out-Judge Mont
gomery Talks Out In Meeting as to Judge
Clark.
The important feature of tOday's
proceedings was the refusal of the
court to admit the

decisions in the office holding cases
and the White mandamus. Messrs.
W. W. Clark, Judge j. G. MacRae,

Jones, Col. c. f. Warren, Mr.. 1. N.
Hill, Mr.. I. f. Dortch, Col. T. NJ.
Argo, Mr.. T. w. Beckett and W. P.
Bynum, Sr., were to testify for the
defense in this way but President
Turner ruled them out.
Judge Walter Montgomery, AssO-
ciate Justice of the Supreme Court,
was also examined today, and there
were some lively tits between him
and Mr.. Watson, who CrOss-examined
the Judge. Judge Montgomery's
testimony was sensational. He ar
nOunced that, in his opinion, Judge
Clark had inspired newspaper articles
attacking the court and was 'at the
bottom of the trouble" And since
the thing has at least leaked out, it
may now be said that for weeks
people on the streets have asserted
that Judge Clark is the prime mover
in the impeachment proceedings.
Judge Montgomery testified further
that Judge Clark went voluntarily
to State Treasurer Worth and ad-
vised him not to obey the order of
the court, and that Judge Clark
limited at Impeachment for the
Judges under certain conditions.
Judge Montgomery said that in court
conference when Judge Clark mad
presented a so-called "~dissenting
opinion as to the White mundamus,
he Montgomery said to Judge
Clark:

Judge Clark on the Stand-MaJOr C1tnT1e
Begins His Speech.
Judge Clark was put upon the
witness stand this morning. There
was nothing sensational in his evil
dence. He said that in conversation
with Treasurer Worth, he suggested
impeachment for the judges only in
case they should put Worth in jail
for refusing to obey the mandamus.
At one point, he was about to relate
a private conversation with Senator
Jarvis.
Mr.. Jarvis-"Do you think it is
proper to detail a private converse
ton between you and me?"
Judge Clark-''It is only because [
have sworn to tell the truth and all
the truth"
Governor Jarvis-"YOu were not
sworn to tell of private CONVERSE
tions between gentlemen. l do OBJ
ject to the introduction of this mat
ter at this time while these respond
ents r on trial. I do not care what
you say after this trial"
Judge Clark said that in court con-
ference when the White mandamus
was being considered, Judge Mont
gOmery said: "Gentlemen, [ am
bound to tell Kenan he cannot issue
that writ. You gentlemen have a
political party back of you I have
none"
Judge Clark testified that he then
said to his associates: "Gentlemen,
I don't want you all to get into
trouble, and allow me to suggest
that you issue an alternative man
damus. To this the Treasurer can
reply that the Legislature prohibited
payment of the claim. The matter
can then come before that body for
its action, and we will thereby both
maintain our dignity and keep out
of trouble
1t was generally expected that
Judge Clark would be subjected to a
rigid and sensational cross eXamina-
ton, touching his relations with the
impeached judges and his alleged
connection with the origin of the
Impeachment proceedings. At the
conclusion of his testimony, how
