PALMS SIDE OF HIS CASE.
Tells Why He Got Into Trouble Over
Checks.

To the Editor of the State Journal:
1 would like to state my case to the
public. 1 suppose that most of the
citizens of Topeka have read the
statements through the papers in the
last three weeks. And now / wish to
state my side of the case:
1 have been in Topeka for 22k
years and for the last three years 1
have done little over $1,000 worth
of business in three banks of this city,
1 also want to say that on July 81,
1907, 1 deposited $4,000 in the Central
National bank of this city; 1 found
that bank, so 1 got a contract to build
a Catholic church in Colby, Kansas,
for $4,000, and 1 found that 1 needed
some money to run that job, so I went
to the Central National bank, asked
the cashier of that bank if I could
borrow 5000 and he answered me,
Yes, if you can put up good secur-
ity.' He made me a note for $500,
which 1 now have in my possession.
He told me to take this note and get
one responsible mans signature on
the same; / took the note from the
bank, signed it myself and had an
other gentleman by the name of John
Rush sign it; 1 returned the note the
stated that he did not know the gen.
tleman whose name was signed to the
note and asked me to get another
mans signature on the note; I then
got Mr.. v. E. Dickson to sign the note.
returned to the bank the same day
and found that the bank was closed.
When 1 got home 1 found a tele-
gram from Colby, Kan, stating that
I had to be in Colby at once I did

not have any money at that time, but
went up town, found gentleman by
the name of Mr.. Burge at 119 East
Sixth street. I stated the case to him,
would like to have him cash a check
for me on the Central National bank
of this city; 1 told him at the time
that 1 didn't have any money in that
bank and asked him if he would keep
the check for "a hours and he said he
would. 1 stated to him that 1 had
note in my pocket that was good for
the money. I got the money and went
home.
Next morning I returned to the
bank and 1 put my note in the bank
for 5000; the cashier of the bank was
not there at the time, but 1 left my
note and my bank book with the vice
president of that bank and asked him
to give it to the cashier and give me
credit for the amount. He stated that
he would.
On Sunday night 1 went to Colby;
found when 1 got to Colby that 1 had
on Tuesday night, went straight
through to Kansas City and I did not
stop in Topeka. I found that I had
run short of money in Kansas City;
on the Colby bank for SIS and stated
to him that I had some money in To-
peka and asked him to hold the check
until the next day. Ny intention was
"
Central National bank and send to Col
by by telegram, at which place I was
working at the time.
That day I returned to Topeka, 1
stepped off of a Santa F'e train and
had a man come up and tell me that
there was a warrant sworn out for me
in Topeka for obtaining money under
false pretenses, told him that I did
not know anything about such case,
and I did not pay any attention to 1t.
1t is a fact that I knew that I had
note in that bank for 5000 which 1 had
given a check on. / went up town and
met the marshal who arrested me- l
went to the court house, gave my bond
for s10O and stated at the time that I
did not know anything about this case
After 1 had given my bond for $1OO
went to the Central National bank
to see what my trouble was, and they
returned to me my bank book and this
note and stated to me that they had
decided that they wouldn't accept this
note for the 5000. I went to Mr.. Burge,
who had me arrested and asked him
what he would do about the case. and
he stated that all he wanted was his
$40 back and that is all that he ex-
pected out of me. L made arrange
ments for the $40, which l gave Mr.
Burge and got my check back.
After that I went down to Mr.. Jami-
son. assistant county attorney and ask
ed him what he would do about the case
and he promised me that II would pay
the cost it would be dismissed.
The day the trial was set l was un-
able to raise the cost, but asked Mr..
Jamison to extend the case for few
days, which he did. The next date
that the trial was set I saw Mr.. Jami- |
son and told him that didn't have any
money but that I had made arrange !
ments for some money and I was not |
able to get it until that afternoon He
took me to Judge Simon and the Judge
answered that he would not extend the
casa onv longer and that the case /
would he tried that morning.
