JUDGE DENIES CHARGES
speer Weeps as He Defends Himself
From Bench.

With tears streaming down his
cheeks and with his voice broken by
sobs United States Judge Emory
Speer at Macon, Ga, answered
from the bench the attack made on
him as a judge by Colonel w. A. Huff,
for ten years mayor Of Macon and a
member of the legislature, Huff had
demanded the impeachment Of Judge
Speer.
Colonel Huff charges that the judge
has Improperly juggled' the Huff
case, involving $l5O,OOO in receiver
ship proceedings, "for the financial
benefit of himself relatives, special
lawyers and others and committed
other improper acts.
The popular feeling seems to be en-
tirely with Colonel Huff and there is
little doubt that congress will be asked
to probe the charges. Already hun
dreds are signing a petition to get the
matter before congress.
