OFFERED T0 GEORGE A, DAY Attorney General Ohurchill Asks an Omaba | Man to Be His Deputy. REASONS FOR REMOVAL OF SUMMERS His Chiet Alloges Many Things Satlsfactory to Himselt but People About the State House Point Out Matters Not Fully Explaiued. LINCOLN, July 12.—(Speclal)—Attorne: George A. Day of Omaha tend. the position of duputy by Attorney General Churehill, to w Summers, re moved for cause e salary of this place is $1,800 per annum. To a reporter for The Bee Mr. Churchill said this evening: “I have tendercd the position to Mr. Day. and he has it under consideration. All these stories afloat about the trouble between Mr. has been succeed Summer and myself, dating back to the state | convention of last fall, are without tion. Up to within two weeks considered for the deputyship but My reasons for his removal are satisfactory to myself and have no political significance wh But T must have some one in my office who will stay there when I am calle away. For th of the state of us must be In the office at all times dur- ing business For this to gether with some events that occurred while 1 was up in Boyd county, trying the Barrett Scott murder case, I thought it best for the good of the office to remove Mr. Summers.” The allusion to the events occurring while the attorney general was in Boyd county are supposed to refer to the conduct of the Dor- gan injunction in the district court. All the points contended for by Deputy Summers he won in the case, but it seems that he did not ask for enough. It is said, on reliable authority, that Summers was ordered to ten- der the warrant to Dorgan in court, but this was an Impossibility, as State Auditor Bu- gene Moore would not give up the warrant HAD TO CONSULT THE COLONEL. There is another story afloat that Tom Majors made a demand for the removal of Summers, having imbibed the idea that the tter's republicanism was not up to the or- thodox Majors brand of politics. The atti- tude of some of the state officers would seem to lend color to this versio In regard to the charge preferred against Summe tested strongly and it is were withdrawn. Summers showed that he had only been absent with the knowledge and consent of the attorney neral, and that he had refrained from attending the na- tional meeting of the Republican Leagne, where he was booked for a speech, owing to_the absence of the attorney general. It is undeniable that a strong impression prevails among quite a number that the true reason for the summary dismissal of Sum- mers Is disguised in the published report that the attorney general believed that his deputy was not loyal to him, but in league with Mr. Churchill's political enemies, and that he was in correspondence with them It 1s also freely stated that the removal of Summers was decided upon at a meeting recently held in this city, at which Tom Majors was present, The removal of Deputy Summers fs de- plored on every hand among state officials and the public generally. The head of one of the state departments said today that the removal of Summers was considered by the supreme court a direct slap at that body. The three justices and three commissioners united in a letter of recommendation to At torney General Churchill upon the latter’s accession to the office. So sincere and cor- dial was this recommendation that the at- torney general told Summers that it left no alternative but to appeint him as deputy It is hard to understand when this release from the “alternative” could have been given, as Summers has always given perfect satisfaction to the supreme court. A singular incident is connected with this correspondence between the supreme court and the attorney general. The letter of recommendation was signed by the full bench and all three of the commissioners In his reply Attorney General Churchill di- rected his letter and remarks to Justices Norval, Post and Harrison, completely ignor- ing the supreme court commissioners. There is said to have been an organized conspiracy worked up against Summers by a few state officlals, and others were in- vited to join this cabal, who refused. The facts are all destined to come out, however, and they cannot reflect credit on the spirators. No tangible or reasonable excuse has yet been offered by Attorney neral Churehill for the removal, and Mr. Summers invites a full and free investigation of his every act He has really been the attorney general ever since Churchill’s election, and the past year has been on of an immense amount of work. It is Intimated that the state bar at large was fast coming to recognize Sum- mers as the head of the department. One of the startling things connected with this unexplained dismissal is the assertion that Attorney General Churchill at one time agreed to take the Illinols bank end of the case against Dorgan, but when L. C. Burr ‘went to him with the petition to sign it is said that Churchill saw the trouble ahead and refused to sign it. Mr. Churchill came to Omaha from Lincoln last night. He was seen byia reporter, but declined to go into the merits of the matter. Ile sald the offer of the position was a sur- priso to Mr. Day, and that the latter had asked time to consider the matter. Mr. Day promised to announce his decision this morn- ing. Mr. Churchill said Mr. Day would make a very acceptable officer. He knew of no Teason why Mr. Day should refuse, and felt yerfectly confident that the answer would be an acceptance of the offer.

CHADRON, Neb., July 12.—(Speclal Tele- gram.)—Another chapter in the J. J. J. Jones case became of record here today. J. M. Miller, one of the former partners of West- over, Miller & Jones, & firm doing legal bus- iness at Crawford, Valentine and Rushville, ‘was today released on a writ of habeas corpus by District Judge Bartow, he having been arrested by Sherift Parker of Valentine on a complaint of embezzlement sworn out by Jones. The complaint would not stand, but before leaving the room he was again ar- rested by Parker on a similar charge. Jone who will be remembered as the Omaha at' torney who was to commit suicide but didn't, seoms determined to make his ex-partner account for some of his dealings while in the partnership. Jones is now at Valentine. Judge Bartow is in receipt of a voluminous epistle trom Jones, trying to show why Miller should be disbarred, and stating If the facts therein contained are not so he wishes to be prosecuted for perjury. Sheriff Parker ex pects to leave for Valentine tonight with Miller, but Miller's attorney may secure his release before train time. The affair is ex- citing much interest jn this section.
