Has Nothing to Say.

Washington, Dec. IA. P. Crock
EFT, secretary to Congressman Slemp,
who was indicted in Russell county
for using money in the recent con-
gressional election in the Ninth Dis
trict when Mr.. Slemp defeated Cen
eral Rufus Ayres says regarding the
matter:
~ will not have anything to say
about this indictment until l get
full particulars from the court author
tiles where the indictments were IS
used. At present I known only
what; i have read in the newspaper
and my information is so brief that
I do not feel disposed to say any
thing right now. I have asked ior
information and it is likely that !
shall have something further to say
regarding the matter"
The indictment against Crockett
is said By persons here to indicate
that there may be further and more
interesting developments in this stu
alton in the very near future. The
question being asked is: care there
others still to feel the arm Of the
law?" While the present proceedings
are important in themselves they are
not so much so, it is understood, as
developments which may follow.
One feature Of the matter, IS Sr'g-
~e=ted here, thai may cause e-a,2c.
rassaana for Slenp, is thar in ali psat
;oiii5v the latter ray ha 2a.ea 81:
= wiaNess against Mr.. CrocGe.. to say
whfhey or not he furnished him wiz:
lands with which 70 help bring about
ms election. Should it turn out That
he did 50. still; more embarrassing
proceedings might follow Should
Slemp himself be proceeded against.
Although it is now probably too late
for his election to be contested by
General Ayres and the Democrats OF
the Ninth District, the situation might
be made most unpleasant for Slemp
should it become apparent that Crock
EFT did use money wrongly in his be-
half.
