ARMY CAPTAIN FACES
EMBEZZLEMENT CHARGES
Former Treasurer of West Point
to Be Courtmartialed

Ell PASO, May 6.-A special dispatch
from Washington to the Ii Paso Morn
ing Times says: Captain Thomas Frank
lin, U. S. A., has been ordered to report
to Major General Leonard Wood at Gov
ernors island, N. Y, to face court
martial on charges growing out of his
administration of affairs in the quar-
termaster's and commissary depart
ments at West Point from 1902 to 1908.
The nature of the charges and speci-
fications, it is said, will make this the
most important army court martial
since Oberlin Nj. Carter was tried.
Captain Franklin was treasurer Of
the United States military academy at
West Point from 1902 to 1908. and dur
ing that period $2,000.oo0 in govern
ment funds passed through his hands.
He was known as the "army's best
businessman" and until recently was
at work perfecting plans for the army
and navy club at Manila.
The exact amount which it is alleged
Captain Franklin is short is not known,
but it is said it will run into hundreds
of thousands of dollars.
Franklin is 3S years old and a native
of Maryland. His wife is an Ell Paso
woman, daughter of ]. A. Smith. post
master at Ell Paso and republican
leader in Texas.
Smith received letter today from
Franklin, in which he says he will be
able to prove his innocence.

RUCKER TO HANDLE
M'LAUGHLIN ESTATE
Miss Anna {. Busteede Fails in
Efforts to Have Admins
TRAITOR Ousted

SANTA CRUZ, May 6.-Judge Smith
filed a decision with County Clerk Mil
Ter in the action brought by. Miss Anna
C. Busteede whereby she sought to have
Samuel n. Rucker removed as admins
traitor of the estate of Major Frank
Mclaughlin. While the decision recog-
nizes Miss Busteede as a Legitimate
creditor. 1t holds that her evidence. has
been insufficient to sustain her claims.
1t reads:
"The record shows that Rucker was
duly appointed and qualified as admin
istrator without objection or protest
from any of the creditors of the estate.
Long after. he had entered upon the dis
charge of the duties of administrator
Anna C. Busteede, creditor of the es-
tate, filed a verified petition asking for
the removal of Rucker upon the grounds
that he had wasted and mismanaged
the estate, and, further, that he had
failed to have included in the inventory
all the property belonging to the de-
ceased at the time of his death
April II. 1909, the administrator filed
his verified answer to the petition, deny
ing all the material allegations. From
the vast amount of documentary and
oral evidence introduced it is manifest
that the petitioner advanced to the de-
ceased during his lifetime various sums
of money, and that she is by reason
thereof bona fide creditor of the es-
tete. But the evidence signally fails to
show that the administrator, S. N.
Rucker, has wasted or mismanaged the
estate, as charged, or that he has in
tentionally or fraudulently failed to in
cIude in the inventory all of the prop
erty belonging to the deceased at the
time of his death.
1T follows, therefore. that the relief
asked for in the petition should be de-
MED and the proceedings dismissed, and
ii is so ordered"
