Council Bluffs. Jan. 11.-Frank Scott,
charged with larceny in connection
with the swinding of John Hermel-

Two indictments are pending against

brecht deal, one charging conspiracy
to defraud and the other charging lar
ceny. Only the larceny case is assigned

by Judge A. b Thornell were two civil
suits brought by alleged Mabray vic

are set down for Tuesday, Jan. 25 If
the Scott case is tried, according to the
special assignment, on Jan. "a, how
ever, it will probably occupy several
days, and will prevent taking up civil
suits until several days after the time
fixed for the assignment, unless one of
the other judges of the district comes
to try them. \. A. Crawford, attorney
for the plaintiffs, said today that an
