Is a pretty general belief that If be goes on

WASHINGTON Noy 1-Attorney General -
eral Harmon bas received Cram Judge 1(11-
gore oC the United States circuit court of
the souther district oC the Indian territory
his answer to the charges fed hy W. 0
Davis of Gainesville , Tex" , on September t8
last Thee charges allege Incompelency ,
oppresEon ! In office . gross official misconduct ,
etc. The Judge altos imp each charge In de-
tall . and In some InBlances quotes from the
court records , with a view to showIng that
time charges are unqualfedly falsa. Judge
KIore 8a1 Davis' charges originated In
the dlsagr.ement between him and the (
master In chancery In the case of Armour
Ires , flanking compon"s rae against Ad-
dlnglon et aI , durIng time pendency of which
Davis , Judge Klgoro says , deliberately
sought to tak" advantage of the friendly 10-
laUons previously existing between thlm to
influence him , time Judge , In . behalf 0' his
clients.
The < legaton that Judge Klgoro said to
Mr. Davis that I he made Charges against
him * Itt , would cut his throat Is d
as Calse. During a converration wIth Davis
Judge Kigore says that he , Davis , drew his
I knife on him and demonstrated threaten- (
Ingl ) At the ( time .timo judge told him If he
undertook to assault him with his knIfe ho
woull drop him out of time window. The
reply Is a lengthy one and Is evidently ! intended -
tended to answer all allegations made. Time
substance oC the answer Is that ( the charges
ale wholy false and weTf prompted by
malice , and that Davis' supporters In the
maler are either disappointed politicians or
In1utcEd by Improper moUves.
