FOR FALSE PRETENSES
Arrest Of C. Fl. Hastings Charged With
Fraud In a Land Deal

Yesterday afternoon c. H. Hastings,
residing on HILL near Eighth street,
was arrested by Officer Long at his
home on a warrant sworn out by George
F. Taylor alleging tl:at Hastings had
obtained money under false pretenses.
The whole affair, it is said, arose from
a real estate deal, in which Taylor
claims he purchased certain lot and
afterward found that he had acquired
title to an entirely different piece of
land.
Arthur Rich Is jointly charged with
Hastings in the complaint but has not
yet been arrested. Soon after the ar
rest Mrs. Hastings appeared at the police
station to see her husband, and at once
began skirnishing for bondsmen. that
he might be released. Hastings is a
consumptive and subject to hemorrhages
and she feared the effect the confine-
ment in jail might have upon his health.
The arrest. she said. was the result of a
terrible mistake. which would be shown
when the case came up for examination
