WORCESTER, Mass, Sept 22-Charles B.
Whiting, the well known broker, whose bust
ness was suspended last Saturday, owing to
attachments on his property, was arraigned
yesterday charged with the embezzlement OF
about 5000, given him by Dr. John o. Mar
ble last May to invest in Chicago and Rock
Island stock. Marble could get neither
money nor stock Judge Atley ruled that
emhezzlement was not proved, as defendant
had right to deposit the money to his own
account and would have lost it if the bank
had failed. Whiting was discharged, but was
held g answer complaint brought by W.
H. brigham, charging tho embezzlement of
bonds worth 5000, handed him for safe
keeping. The case was continued until Mon
day, and Whiting was held in 81, 800 bail.
