LOOKS LIKE FORGERY
F. II. Christian, Representative of
Omaha Manufacturers of Hog Rem
edy, Held On Suspicion of Having
Passed Bogus Checks.

f. II. Christian, q representative Of
Omaha, was arrested late Monday aft
ernoon by Chief of Police w. L. Mich
olson, and while being held on charge
Of vagrancy he is detained in jail on
suspicion that he has issued bogus
checks or that he has been obtaining
money by false pretenses.
Checks which he had cashed have
proved to be of no value, according to
the bank of which they were issued.
Two of such checks, one for $3.50
and the other for s19.75, drawn on the
Merchants National bank Of Cedar
Rapids, and bearing the signatures Of
James L. Powell and E. L. Powell,
have been returned here protested.
Both of the checks were cashed Sat-
urday, one by the Stoddart hotel, where
Christian has been stopping, and the
other at the First National bank. The
bank did not know Christian, and as
means of identification Christian had
j. L. Brown, Of near Green Mountain,
endorse the check. 1t was then cashed
by the bank. Yesterday they We're re-
turned by the Cedar Rapids bank, on
which they were drawn, with the
statement that neither James L. Pow
ell nor r. l.. Powell were known.
Brown had had dealings with Chris
tian and therefore knew him. The
check that was cashed at the Stod-
dart hotel was deposited in the First
National and was returned with the
other. The loss, if any, will fall on
Brown and the Stoddart hotel
This morning Christian was ar
raigned in Justice Millard's court on
charge Of vagrancy. He pleaded not
guilty and was returned to Jail to
await his hearing Wednesday morn
ing.
This morning, in JAIL he received a
letter from the Merchants Chemical
Company, Of Omaha, containing a
check for $50, presumably for wages
due him. Christian endorsed this
check, and turned 1t over to the bank
for the apparent purpose of satisfying
the other checks. Whether or not
prosecution will follow depends upon
whether the Stoddart hotel or Brown
desires to push the matter.
