had accumulated for his declining
years, Peter kertZman, IS years old,
has secured warrant from Police
Judge Sam Page, charging Paul Flem-
ing and A. e. Godfrey with conspiracy
to defraud. Godfrey. who was arrested
late yesterdays afternoon has been re-
leased on bonds signed by George Ford
and Henry Holdenried. Fleming is in
South Dakota.
Several weeks ago, says Kertzman,
he traded his 50o-acre ranch in the
bad lands, his home, $4,000 stock of
mere -dise in Topbar, S. D., and ST.
900 In or for the Woodbine saloon
on Fifth street He declares he bought
the saloon from Godfrey, local real
estate dealer thru the influence of
Fleming, a stock shipper of South Da-
kota-
Called 1t Good investment.
Fleming, according to the old Ger
mans story, saw him on his ranch a
few months ago and told him where
he could make a good investment
which would net about $4,000 a year.
Kertzman, enthusiastic to get in such
a deal, came to Sioux City and looked
into the Woodbine bar. He says that
while here he was taken about town
in an automobile by Fleming and God
FREY and that when no called at the
saloon he found three bartenders on
duty and the barroom crowded.
Kertzman alleges that he wrote two
checks, one for $3.50 and one for $500.
in favor of Godfrey on the evening ne
was in Sioux City. He claims to have
told the men that the checks would be
honored shortly afterward. He then
contracted for the saloon and deedeo
over his property and gave $1,000 in
notes to cover $500 mortgage upon
his ranch and to pay wholesalers Dill
against the stock Of merchandise
Others Claimed Ownership.
After negotiating successfully kertz-
man came to Sioux City and took
charge of his newly acquired saloon.
He contends that shortly after he llao
been in business the Hamm Brewing
company notified him 1t the fixtures
belonged to them. A. ~ days later
he was informed that his lease expired
Jan. / instead of in five years, as he
claims he was told by Godfrey.
Kertzman says that other people
claimed portions of the stock until that
which he thought he had purchased
consisted mainly in few glasses sew
eral cases Of beer and a few jugs OF
whisky. He alleges that the saloon
loses money each day.
