z. E. Miller Becomes
Further Involved
High Point Broker Charged Hare
With Misappropriaticn of Funds,
is Charged by Greensboro Man
With Embezziement

High Point, July 26.-Claude E.
Miller, local broker, today was fac
ing another charge of embezzlement,
this latest charge being filed by
Charles Morrison of Greensboro, who
alleges that Miller got S825.75 from
him, a check given for that amount
being returned by the bank, marked
insufficient funds
A warrant charging Miller with
embeZzlement was served on him at
the GUilford General hospital, where
he has been q patient for some time,
by Deputy Sheriff Gray. A few
weeks ago the town of Boone
brought action against Miller. He
was at the time released under bond
and Deputy Sheriff Gray required
an additional $4,000 in the latest
case.
Morrison charges, according to the
story told Deputy Gray, that some
time ago he negotiated a loan from
the company with which Miller is
connected for the sum of S1,S25.70.
He said Miller took the check to him
at Greensboro, telling him that the
company required him (Miller) to
see the check indorsed and then take
it back to his office so that record
of it might be made on his books.
Morrison according to Deputy
Gray, said he indorsed the check
and let Miller take it back to make
the record he claimed was necessary.
Miller told him he would return it
the following day. But several days
passed, Morrison said, and he wired
Miller for his money. Tcey eX-
changed messages for three Gays, ac-
cording to the story, and fna,lT Vi !
ler sent $1,000, saying the remaining
SS25.70 would be forwarded the fol
lowing day. When finally the check
was sent it was returned by the
bank, Morrison said.

HIGH POINT BROKER
TO BE TRIED AUG. a

Claud z. Miller, High Point broker
who was arrested some time ago by
the town OF Boone on a charge of
having appropriated to his own use
the sum of $4,000 of local munich
pal funds, will be given prelimi-
nary hearing before Edwin N. Hahn,
justice Of the peace, on Saturday,
August 4th, according to arrange
ments made public by A. Y. Howell,
city clerk. The date for the trial
was set as soon as was possible for
the defendant to appear, he having
been confined in High Point hos
pital since the action was brought
against him.
According to Mr.. Howell, various
loans had been negotiated by the
city through Miller covering a
period of about two years, and up
until this time, the dealings with him
had been altogether satisfactory. 1t
is understood that definite date
will soon be set for hearing before
the state INSURANCE. commission, at
which time it is expected Miller
will be barred from again operating
as broker in this state.
Mr.. Howell states that after hav-
ing made investigations, Mr.. Miller
is solvent and there is no likelihood
that the town will lose the amount of
the note, the proceeds of which Mil
ler is alleged to have embeZzled.

Moody Wins in Texas

Dallas, Texas, July 29.-After
more than 100000 Of the estimated
100000 votes cast in yesterdays
statewide Democratic primary had
been counted tonight by the Texas
election bureau, it became increas-
ingly evident that Dan Moody, the
35-year-old red haired chief execu-
tive, had won sweeping victory,
with a run-off next month necessary
to determine the nominees for Uni
ted States senator and lieutenant
governor.
Moody, who downed "Ma" Fergu-
son in a sensational contest two
years ago, had a clear majority of
upwards of $4,000 over his three
opponents. Louis j. Wardlaw, as
sailed in campaign speeches by
Moody as running with the backing
Of j. E. Ferguson, former governor,
was more than 100000 behind, while
the vote cast for W. E. Hawkins and
Mrs. Edith Williams, both of whom
refused to support the Democratic
presidential nominee, was negligible.
It was to the contest for lieuten-
ant governor, however, that many
looked for an expression of pro and
anti-Smith sentiment. Barrv Miller,
Of Dallas, incumbent, who pleaded
for the ''ticket, top to bottom
throughout his campaign, held lead
Of more than $4,000 over State
Senator Thomas B. Love, who de-
clined to support Governor Smith
and whose name as a result was left
off the ballots in several counties.
United States Senator Z. B. May
field continued to hold the lead in
the senatorial race over his five op-
ponents, the vote in this contest
standing: Mayfield, 117,356; Con
nally, 12,399; Owsley, 78,031;
Blanton, 77,100; Cunningham, &c.
PTS; McLemore, 1885, Both Sena-
tor Mayfield' and Congressman Con-
nally are supporters of the national
Democratic ticket.
