MIsPAoEL GETS TWO YEARS
Former Cashier of Sc. Charles CIOJ
Savings Bank Convicted BY
Friends on own Testimony.

st. Charles, Moon Friday Anton
F. Mispagel, who admitted on the wit
ness stand that he had falsified the
books Of the st. Charlesi savings bank,
of which he was cashier, and had thus
concealed a shortage for years, was
found guilty of embezzlement and
sentenced to two years Imprisonment.
Mispagel was convicted by his own
testimony, according to the jurors, who
were all his personal friends. His ad-
mission that he had sworn to state
ments made to the secretary Of state,
when he knew those statements en-
bodied false entries made to cover up
a shortage, more than offset his decla-
ration that he had not profited by the
shortages and his explanations that
the money was lost through lad loans
through errors of judgment and not
by theft.
Fourteen informations were filed
against Mispagel after his arrest He
was tried on but one of these informa-
lions, which covered various sums ag-
gregating $4,000.
