CENSUS OFFICE CLERK SHORT.
H. A. Barrows is Removed and an Investiga
tion Begun
fBy the Associated Press.)

Washington, May FL A. Barrows,
disbursing clerk of the United States
Census Office, has been summarily re-
moved as the result of the discovery of
a shortage in the accounts of his office.
Mr.. Barrows was subjected to rigid eX-
aminations today by Director Merriam
and Chief Clerk McCauley. He gave the
amount of his discrepancy as S1,40o and
credited the trouble to speculation. Inc
government is amply secured from loss
by bonds aggregating almost S3Oo,0Oo, SO
that there will be no loss to the United
States. One of the experts going over
the accounts today said it might take
two weeks before the exact situation is
known.

removing these negroes from office whose
appointment he had sanctioned.
Senator Pritchard charged fraud on
the part of Democratic registrars in the
last election for refusing /. to register
negroes. In answering this charge Sena-
tor Simmons said that before the cleo
ton and after it the Republican district
attorney had indicted number of these
registrars and that Senator Pritchard,
without solicitation of the defendants or
the Democratic organization in the State
for his own reasons, had had these in
dctments nolle pressed.
Senator Pritchard charged generally
Democratic lawlessness, violence and dis
order. Answering this Senator Simmons
said, that although Senator Pritchard's
party had charge of the judiciary of the
State only one prosecution, the Steptoe
case, had been brought and that upon
a bench warrant issued by a Populist
Judge, and that after an investigation
was dismissed without requiring the de-
tense to produce any evidence. Senator
Simmons denounced the charge as un-
founded.
NAME YOUR MAN.
Gratis had sent an emissary to him in
Washington during the impeachment
trial offering to drop the Impeachment
proceedings against the judges if he
would have the indictments against the
registrars dismissed, which he refused
TO do Senator Simmons interrupted him
and asked him if the alleged emissary
was not an attorney for the judges. Upon
Senator Pritchard's answering that he
was not an attorney for the judges Sena-
tor Simmons asked him to name the
emissary, which he declined to do. Sem
ator Simmons said that neither he nor
any one under his authority as State
chairman had authorized any one TO
make any such proposition. In conclud-
ing his reply Senator Simmons said that
there is no prejudice in North Carolina
against the negro as a man; that in mat
tiers of education and charity the negro
is treated with absolute fairness but
that our amendment denies to the igno-
rant and irresponsible negro the right
to vote for his own good and to protect
the white mans civilization.
Senator Simmons of course spoke ex-
temporaneously while Senator Pritchard
had made elaborate preparation. MOI
withstanding this the Democratic Sena-
tor easily got the best of the argument
and completely answered his Republican
colleague.
