The father-in-law, Mr. Brewer, who

Thursday at the home of Mrs. Butler,
m Central.place, and talked freely con-
fanilng his dead son-in-law. He de
clared Branch was a "dope fiend.” nnd
had given hta wife much trouble.

‘.‘Conduct Unbsarabls.”
Mr. Brewer stated that Branch's
conduct became so unbearable more
than a year and a hair ago that hi.
wtfa quit him and entered suit for
divorce. On the promise of the youi
~ fe ‘ I dlvor
Hon. Hoke Smtthjseued a statement
Thursday to the press, concerning the
charges Insinuated against him by At
bert Howell concerning Mr. Smith'
handling of a suit brought for (6,000
damages against the Western and At
lantlc Railway In behalf of S.
Dempsey, of Ml Foundry street,
said:
"If Albert Howell or S. D. Dempsey
will swear that I. or my firm, at uny
time, received an offer of settlement In
Dempsey's case of 11.600, • or of sny
other sum greater than 12,600;
"Or that In agreeing to the offer of
settlement the Company was under
taking to pay Dempsey 13,600;
Or that I used the Dempsey case to
Increase my fee In the two other cases

Constitution this morning—
In the two other cases - Albert How
ell Insinuates In The Constitution this
morning—
"I will Indict him for false mvaarlng
and I will put stripes on his back and
shackles around his Ices as a common
felon In the state penitentiary."
Mr. Smith said the affldavlta were
made by Albert Howel, Introducing
Ills charge as follows:
.." In .5 unday mornings Constitution
Mr. Albert Howell practically charged
that I had represented s. D. Dempsey
In a case against the Western and At
lantic RniJroad Company; that I had
settled the Dempsey case with the rail
road company for S!,S00; that I had
kept 21,000 of the money and had set
tled with Dempsey upon the baale of
only having collected 12,600 from the
railroad company.
"Yesterday afternoon I answered that
statement am} showed that It wa's
false, and that I had only collected
12,600 from the railroad company.
"This morning Mr. Albert Howell
makes a second publication In which
he abandona / hls statement of Sunday
nnd charges. In substance, that I set
tled Dempsey's caee with two negro
cases; that I could have obtained |1,-
600 for Dempsey, but Instead of doing
so I took 22,600 nnd Increased the
amount which was paid to the negro
cases. He furthermore states that this
was due to the fact that I had a larger
fee In the negro cases than In Demp
sey's case.
-The statements of Mr. Howell this
morning are absolutely false.
“The affidavit which he used on Sum
day from 8. p. Dempsey was sworn to

proceedings were withdrawn and the
couple went back together. It was
'mly a short time. Mr. Brewer stated.
last November. It r wa* made at the
Instance of Mr. Albert Howell.
"I never heard a complaint from
Dempsey until his letter of January
1«. 1901. nearly two months after Mr.
Albert Howell had obtained from him
the affidavit.
"At the time Dempsey’s case was
settled with the Western and Atlantic
Railroad Company, two other raaea
were also asttlsd; one the case of
Mrs. Blanch Powsll; the other the
case of Sam Farrell. Mrs. Powell re
ceived 12.660; Sam Ferrell received
1200. Mrs. Pbwell Is a respected white

cases. I voluntarily reduced my fee

"Mr., John L. Tye, attorney for the

made the settlements. a .

at that time the railroad company re

A copy of Dempeey'a letter to Mr.
Smith follows:
"Atlanta, Oa.. January II. 1906.
"Mr. Hoke Smith, Atlanta. Oa.
"My Dear Mr. Smith: You will re
member that I gave you my case
s.ainsr ths N- C. and St. L. railway.
Hs says further that he went to Mr.
Smith's offics to Investigate and later
saw John L. Tye, all of which Inves
tigation caused him to tell Mrs. Demp-
say that 12,600 was all that.could have
been secured.
Mr. Hughes further sets -forth In his
statement that hs was recently In
formed by Mrs. Dempsey that Mr.
Howall had eeveral times sent for her
and had assured her that. 11,600 had
been collected.
An affidavit from J. J. Hastings Is
added, aa follows:
"Stats of Georela, County of Fulton—
Personally appeared J. J. Hastings,
who, on oath, says that In 1102 he
was connected with ths firm of Hoks

of :t;s —»« of S. D. Dempsey against
the Western end Ati.r.t'.c Railroad
Compeny. or the N, C. ft St. L. Rail

' "At no time wee deponent offered, by
the representative of the railroad com
pany, more then 11,004 to settle the
case of S. D. Dempaev, until finally an
agreement was reached that ths rail
road company should pay 12,600.
"No negro cases wart asttlsd at the
time that the case of S. D. Dempsey
was settlsd. •
"The only two other cases settled
ware the esses of Mrs. Blanch Powell
for 12,160 and Sam Ferrell for 1200.
"There never was an Intimation from
the attorney of the railroad company
that a larger sum than-12,600 could be
obtained for 8. D. Dempeey; on the
contrary, the first offer of the railroad
company was very much less, and It.
was only after continued negotiations
that I wpa able to obtain from them a
settlement at 12.600.
"S. D. Dempeey was anxious to set
tle when the offer of 21,600 was mad*
by the railroad company, but I Insist
ed that hs was entitled to more, and
that If he would gtv* me time I would
get more..

one-third of th* 'Settlement, according
to the contract. He saw Mr. Hoks
Smith and Mr. Smith agreed to reduce

Say* He Was a Tool.
Mr. Herlng le Insistent In his state
ment that h# had nothing whatever to
do with th* peculation of th* bank
funds. He declare* that Rtenaland'e
Instructions were such that there was
no way on their face of determining
that any crooked business was going

uaually the next day, they were re
turned to me duly signed by various
people, or at least they had the alleged
signatures of various people. Mr.
Ktenelnnd ordered me to place them to
the credit of hla personal account and'
would then draw checks on hla per
sonal account for the various enter
prises which dragged him to ruin.
Told of Indebtedness.
"My suspicions were aroused some
time ago, but I made up my mind that
It waa m/ duty to soy something to
Mr. fltensfand about five weeks ago. I
handed him a paper containing a list
of notes for $130,004 which I believed
should be among the assets of the
bank.
"This Indebtedness,* J saJd, ’in get
ting too large, and it ought to be fixed
up In some other way, or the bank
will be in trouble.*
"He i»at for a moment, and then
said: *Yes, 1 know; but I have every
reason to believe I will have It all
fixed up shortly. Don't worry, It will
