Heney the Government special prose cutor in the land fraud trials, gave to the public for the firstn time his reasons for accusing Senator Fulton.

When Senator Fulton was in formed of the above, he said: "I cannot of course, answer Mr. Heney's charges until I have read them in full. I will however say that it is absolutely false that I ever paid anyone money for Mitchell. Mr. Heney must be desperate when he has to delve into the past to rake up scandal and filth of this character. shall at the proper time deal with these charges and show their entire falsity.". Former Condonlt Married.
