A forgery case against w. L.
Seitz was dismissed for the reason
that the defendant had been SEN
fenced to the penitentiary on a pre-
vious case. Four cases were referred
to the next grand jury. One was a
charge of grand larceny against
Frank Lopez; another was the
charge of assault with a deadly
weapon against Ventura Rodriguez
and the other two were embezzle-
ment charges against Oscar and Err
nest Woodson, the young men who
held up an NJ. P. train last

for the reason that they are soon to
face the charge of train robbery in
the federal court and there is a
suspicion that it will not be neces-
sary to try them on the embozzle-
ment cases.
