NARRATIVE OF WITNESS
CAUSES SECOND ARREST
New Warrants Served in Court
During the Yost Trial at
Long Beach

LONG BEACH, Sept 2S--While the
trial of James Yost, charged with Civ
ing the b. & b. garage worthless
check, was in progress today in Justice
Underwood1s court, the case took some
unexpected turns. Yost had signed the
name of his brother, A NJ. Yost, to the
check, so Deputy District Attorney
North had the worthless check case
dismissed and Yost rearrested upon
forgery charge.
A. NJ. Yost, who lives at Santa Ana,
testified that he had given his brother
authority to sign his name to checks,
and that the forgery charge was unten-
able. 1t had been shown that the check
to which James Yost had signed his
brothers name was drawn for $40 on
the orange County Savings bank, and
that the bank had reported that neither
Yost had funds there.
Deputy District Attorney North then
ordered that warrants be drawn charg-
ing the Yost brothers with confederat-
ing to defraud the Santa Ana bank,
stating that A. NJ. Yost committed
crime in authorizing his brother to sign
his name to checks when there was not
money in the bank to meet them.
When the men were served with the
new warrants in open court James
Yost, through his counsel, Attorney
tell the whole story. This was agreed
to, and the forgery case was reinstated
on the docket. Yost said he was in
toxicated when he gave the check, and
that he was befuddled as to the names
of the banks, making it on the Orange
County Savings bank instead of on the
Farmers and Merchants bank The
court held him to answer to the su-
perior court in bonds of $1,000.
The deputy district attorney agreed
that the case would be brought up in
the superior court this afternoon, and
that Yost would be placed on probation.
The other charge against his brother
will not be pressed After giving the
$40 check, which was refused, Yost
gave a check for $3.50. the exact
amount of his bill at the garage. This
was also refused by the Santa Ana
bank. R. D. Chaffee, proprietor of the
garage, then caused his arrest
