A SENSATIONAL STORY.
A Constitution Special About R M.
Hall.
We find l be following in yester¬
day’* Atlanta Constitution in refer
encn to It. 14. Hall, formerly of this
place, and republish it simply to ex¬
press our doubts of its truthfulness,
the Constitution's em-mity to Sena¬
tor Colquitt being y-eli known:
HE SKEWS TO BE QUITE FAST.
A HBP1IEW OF SENATOR COLQUITT
A11 ROAM IN COLORADO.
Denver. C*L.. December 17.—
[Special]—For several months past,
I{. M. Hall, of Atlanta, Ga., hat been
making Denver his headquarter*, he
having, during tlife summer, received
the appointment ef *peci»l inspector
of «urvev from Secretary of luterior
Vilas, at the earliest request ol 8ena
tor Colquitt, whose nephew the
young man !*.
Shortly after his arrival here, Hall
began a systain of going the rowud*
of the several railroad offices aaak
ing request* for free transportation,
on the grounds of his office, alao
showing a government all times request,
The requests were at graa
ted, aud of late, Hall has presented
so many demands that an invastga
tion was made and demonstrated
the fact that all the pasaae were
setd to local ticket brokers.
Acting upon this information, !tli*
Union Pacific road informed Unued
Stales District Attorney Hobson,
who authorized Hall's detention. He
waa arrested by Un'ted State* Mar
•bail Hiil and latter relaaa, <1 oi hi«
own recoguiziucc, ainca which time
Hall has been under tk# am vellianc*
of a detective, who has shadowed him
everywhere.
Speaking of Hall to day. Unittd
State* Attorney Hobson said that
be waa not yet eonviueed whether
Hall was guilty of auy criminal act
ion, but that he certainly waa guilty
of great rascality. Besides tbi* of
fonce, oilier have censo to regret
Uall’e pr**«ne* hare. Oft' hi d on,
while in Colorado, he hat aaado the
Markham hotel and other hotel* hia
headquarters nil of whieh arc heavy
los*t*. At present Hall ib the sub
jeci of inveatigation at the hand* of
the grand jury in the United State*
court, and it is not improbable that
bo uauy be iadicted for an offence
which will land him is the state peai
teutiary.
I some e*tevpri*iugfellow would aowcorn

could make bi» fortune. Beware of fraud*.
