FIVE OTHER CHARGES.
as follows have been preferred against him
The abov" is only one Of five indictments,
and for this alone he will be sentenced.
Indictment No. 2 is the same in every re-
spect as the ono he had just plead guilty to-
indictment No. 3 is for the larceny of
S1O,ONs
Iu0l>t.neut No. 4 is for larceny in bank
Of ~ $3.50,
Indictment No. s is for larceny in bank
u $4,000.
Thus the total amount of indictments foots
up his stealings at $l15, 214.5O
Why Keen has only been indicted for
$47,l07.25 is known only to the prosecuting
attorneys, and has not been made public.
AS the matter now stands Keen can be re-
arrested on each of the other indictments at
the expiration of the term he will now get.
But this single term will probably end the
matter.
