He was discovered In time, however. In the office of Louis J. Anderson, and was saved by the hospital physicians. This attempt fol lowed Branch's ejectment uy m. .ull.. er-ln-law, • J. C.

The father-in-law, Mr. Brewer, who resides, at Lakewood Heights, was seen 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. My daughter had done everything In 'paw#r to get along with Branch, hut he abused and worried her until !?.* c . ou,< ln't stand It any longer. And tuts la why ahe would not consent to —**• o»r protection and try and live with him again." ‘.‘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 —os Albert Howell Insinuates In The 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 man. however, to reform, the divorce 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 woman and Sam Ferrell la a white "My contract with each of toe was for one-third of the amount col lected In case suits were brought.

"We never received an offer of over 22,000 In the Dempsey rase, but we finally Induced them to agree to pay "Mr. Howell hae asked that I print the correspondence with Dempsey and the original contract I had with him.
