WELLONS HELD TO
CRIMINAL COURT
Bound Over on Charge of En-
bezzIement of $4,000
HIS BOND SIT AT $4,000
Sensational Statement Made In tho
Testimony Yesterday Before Judge
Feasln-shows Up the L.
side of Bucket Shops.
HIS BOND SIT AT $4,000

F. B. Wellons was yesterday afternoon
bound over to the criminal court by
Judge F'eagin on a bond of s4OOO The
final testimony and the arguments of the
attorneys In the case against him for
embezzlement were heard yesterday, and
sensational things we're brought out
sWellons is charged with embezzing $1,000
of the funds of the White Commission
company, of which he was secretary
treasurer and a stockholder. 1t was an
affidavit of WelIons to the effect that he
was a stakeholder In the company that
caused Judge Feagin to hold him to the
criminal court, despite his statements In
court that he was merely stakeholder
for ]. p. Dawson, who recently commit
ted suicide.
After the defense had introduced it's
evidence yesterday the attorneys agreed
to submit the case without argument, but
Judge Feagin told them that he wanted
to hear what they had to say, as he was
inclined to bind WeIlons over.
The efforts of the defense yesterday
were to show that Wellons merely acted
under instructions from Dawson. and that
the latter was really responsible for all
the operations of the company. They
attempted to show that Dawson was the
real spirit Of the concern, Welons mere

The Methods.
Wellons testified that frequently Daw-
son would take trade which should have
been put on the boards of the O'Dell
Commission company, of which the White
Commission company was corTespon-
dent, and would shift the same trades to
the books of the local concern when ii
appeared that the market would be favor
able to the local company making a
profit.
In this manner, Wellons said. the local
company would make commission which
otherwise would have gone to the Odeli
Commission company; that frequently
Dawson would make personal checks
against the account Of the company at
the First National bank and that he
also, make interlineations on the
