OLIvEROS INDICTED
FORMER CASHIER OF A. C. L. PRE-
SENTED BY GRAND JURY
FOR LARCENY AFTER TRUST.
AMOUNT OF THE ALLEGED SHORT
AGE is $5,sS3.74.

Indictment Is Composed of Five
COunts-DefaIcntiOn Are Alleged
to Have Taken Place March IL.
First Count Charges MisapprOpri-
alton of the Whole AmOunt-The
other Four Specify the Separate
Amounts Which Aggregate the
Whole - Bradberry williams APP
peared as Prosecutor.
John p. Oliveros was indicted for
larceny after trust by the grand jury
yesterday, the amount of his alleged
defalcation being $5SS3.74.
Mr.. Oliveros, it will be recalled, was
arrested April II, on a charge of en-
bezzlement from the Atlantic Coast
Line, while acting as the company's
cashier in Savannah.
The amount of his alleged shortage
was at that time reported as IS, III. As.
An examination by an expert account
ant has resulted in the enhancement of
that figure to the amount named
above.
The accused is indicted on FIVE
counts. The first alleges that on
March IL, after having been entrusted
with $5,8S3.74, funds of the Atlantic
Coast Line, he appropriated them to
his own use. The other four counts
charge the misrepresentation of the
several amounts which aggregate the
whole, the date of the defalcations
being in every case stated as March II,
1903.
Bradberry Williams appears as the
prosecutor on the indictment. The only
witness before the grand jury was w.
w. HARRISON. The text of the indict-
ment covers several pages of closely
written matter, constituting one Of the
lengthest documents of its kind filed
in the court for many day.
Mr.. OliVeros gave bond shortly after
his arrest in the sum of $4,000 His Of
fetal bond was also carried by two
surety companies, the American Sure
ty Company of New York and the
Guarantee Company of North Ameri-
ca. the latter being the most heavily
involved. These bonds protect the rail-
road company.
Mr.. Oliveros denies the indebtedness.
saying that if there is any discrepan-
cy in the accounts it is the result of
the many changes in the accounts of
the office since his occupancy of it.
These consist of the transfer from the
savannah, Florida and Western to the
RANT system, and later, the transfer
OF the Plant System to the Atlantic
Coast Line
The trial will be at the present term
OF the court and will, doubtless, be
very interesting. The accused will be
represented by Twiggs & Oliver.

FINED S25 FOR CURSING.

L. L. Dotson, who was charged with
using approbrious words, appeared be-
fore Judge Barrow in the Superior
Court yesterday and pleaded guilty to
the charges against him. He was twice
indicted, but, by agreement, one of the
charges was dropped in consideration
of his pleading guilty to the other.
The court imposed a fine of $25 and
costs, in lieu of the payment of which
the defendant was sentenced to serve
three months on the county chain
gang. The fine was paid. The lightness
of the sentence was induced by the
position assumed by the prosecution,
who, in open court. expressed a desire
to abandon the charges against the
accused

above is that turned in from the
count of the coroner. Scores OF
others have also perished, but
