EMBEZZLEMENT CASE
Officers Assert Prisoners Defrauded
sentous Packing Company Out
of Thousands of Dollars
by Clever Scheme

Headquarters detectives say that
they secured additional evidence yes
terday which tends to incriminate
Elmer G. Reed and w. Boulton, em-
ployes of the Sentous Packing COM
pany, in clever scheme to defraud the
company out of thousands of dollars.
Reed and Boulton were arrested
Monday and a butcher, Frank Aloi,
having a market at Ninth and Lemon
streets, was arrested yesterday for all
legged completely with the other men,
Reed was solicitor for the company
and Boulton was cashier.
According to the detectives, these
men sold large amounts of meat to
Aloi and tore up his receipts, substi-
tuting receipts for small orders, num-.
bering them to correspond with the
stubs in the original book.
May Charge EmbezzIement
1t is claimed that the three men
pocketed the difference between the
actual sales and what was charged
upon the books of the company
AS Boulton was cashier, it was said
that he could easily cover up the al
legged fraudulent transactions on the
books, and Reed as solicitor secured
the orders.
No special charge has been made
against the men, who are all in the city
Jail, but the police say embezzlement
will be the basis of the prosecution
against the employees of the packing
company and Aloi will be held as an
accessory.
The members of the firm, which has
plant on San Fernando street. have
been suspicious of the two men for some
tim and they have been watched while
detectives were securing evidence.
