Evidence Shows Baker and En-

LATTER PLEADS GUILTY

Secured by Friend on Check
Bonds Fixed at $4,000.

the two Rock lsiand road brakemen
charged with working confidence
game in connection with pay check,
fore Magistrate c. j. Smith this morn
ing and they were both held to the
grand jury under bonds of $4,000 each
They were unable to get any one to so
on their bonds and they were taken
TO the county jail
At the hearing the facts in the case
were brought out as related in The
Argus on Monday evening. The evil
dence for the prosecution tended to
show that Embrey and Baker planned
to work Kinsley Matthews. who is
acting as relief agent at Sivis. Baker
does not like the relief agent and ne
told Embrey that ''the old man would
be easy TO work" according to a state
ment made by Embrey at the trial
Baker accordingly went to Matthew
who handles the pay checks of the
men working on the Iowa division, AMI
asked for Embrey's check The agent
knew that the two men were cronies
and ii WAS not very hard to convince
him that Baker came with the author
ity of the owner of the check who was
unable to come himself As soon as
he secured the check Baker came -
this city and cashed-it and after speni-
ing most of the money he turned over
the remaIder TO Enbrey, who then
planned 10 get another check for his
wages on the grounds that he had not
received them as yet.
One Pleads Guilty.
The company was not 50 easy to-
work, however, as they imagined and
detectives were put on the case with
The result that Baker was caught out
III Omaha and Embrey was locat ID
here, and enough facts were gathered
together to show that they were trying
confidence game. When Baker was
arrested at Omaha he denied at first
taat he was the Baker who was want
| ed and later he admitted that he was
the one, but claimed that he was inno-
cent of the charge against him. EN-
| brey threw up the sponge in the very
first round after being arrested and
when he was arraigned in court he
entered a plea of guilty.

but states that the plans have not
been sufficiently completed to be
made public. He declined to state
whether it is the intention to secure
the additional power spoken of from
the new plant at Sears, but said that
it would come from a source other
than that now used. Where the pow
er to be generated at the plant al
Sears is to be disposed of has been a
matter of much conjecture, and s
S. Davis and the others interested in
the project have declined to give any
information on this point. The be-
lief that the Peoples Power company
is to be the chief purchaser of the
power is strengthened by the incor-
poratlon of the new company.
