In the case of the Territory against
VIM. l.. Dustin, wherein the defend
ant was charged with obtaining
money by false pretences, the hearing
was concluded yesterday and resulted
i'm Dustin being bound over 10 await
the action of the grand jury In the
sum of 81 900 bail. The evidence on
the part Of the Territory shows that
the defendant, who is the younger
Dustin, on the 2sth day Of October
last, drew a check as treasurer of the
Miles City Dressed Beef company,
upon the Stock Growers bank for the
sum Of $50, and procured A. A. De-
Cow, a clerk in Silverman's store, to
60 to the bank and get it cashed. The
account of the Beef company at the
time was overdrawn, which Dustin
knew. II also appeared that at the
time this check was uttered Mr..
Blim, lawyer from Lincoln, Illinois,
was here for the purpose of procuring
a confession of judgment In favor Of
VIM. NJ. Dustin & Co., against the
Miles City Dressed Beef company for
sum a little less than Sic. 200, which
judgment was being prepared at the
time the check was uttered, and was
filed with the clerk of the court with
in an hour. All of which the defend
ant well knew was being done with
his full consent. 1t appeared further
that this young man hid at all
times represented to the bank that the
Miles City Dressed Beef company was
perfectly solvent and capable of pay
ing all its debts; that the bank would
at all times be protected, and that IL
anything turned up that would haz-
ard their creditor he wonld immedi-
ately inform the bank, so that 1t could
take steps to protect itself, and that /
case of failure they would make the
bank preferred creditor.
The theory of c. II. Middleton and
A. +. Burleigh, who appeared for the
prosecution was, that by the repre-
sentatioDs Of solvency, on the part Of
the Beef company, they succeeded In
procuring credit at the bank; that ut
iering the check for $50, after the con-
cern had become insolvent, was false
pretense and fraudulent representa-
tion, and the defendant having full
knowledge that the concern was in
solvent at the time he uttered the
check must have done IL knowingly
ana designedly. with intent to cheat
and defraud.
DIR. Burleigh and w. II. Ross ap-
peared TOR defendant. The claim OF
the defence was. that as a note had
been at some time previous deposited
in the bank to secure any over-drafts,
there was no criminality in drawing
the check as the bank had impliedly
given authority for the check by hold
ing the note to secure over-drafts.
