Los Angeles Times: Six defendants
were named in an Indictment rem
dered today by the federal grand
iurv in connection with the alleged
stock swindling scheme of the CleVe-
land Oil company, the offices ot
which we're raided about two weeks
ago by the United States authorities.
The defendants, all of whom are
alleged to be officers, directors or
connected with the oil company in
other ways, and the amount of bail
fixed for each, are as follows;
William ]. Batchelder, $1O'ooo;
Thomas NJ. Montgomery, $4,000; John
Montgomery, jr., $4,000; Grant G.
Gillette; $4,000; W. A. France
$4,000; Edison France, $4,000.
Bail was fixed by Judge Wellborn
of the United States district court in
the amounts named, at the sugges-
ton Of Frank Stewart, deputy dis
trict attorney, who handled the evi-
dence before the grand jury.
The four defendants first named
were taken into custody at the time
of the raid on the oil company's OF
fices or shortly afterwards. Edison
France gave himself up today upon
being notified of the Indictment. and
w. A. France now is on his way from
Columbus, Ohio, to this city, 1t Is
said.
Gillette lives part Of the time In
Fostoria, Ohio, and part of the time
in Los Angeles. John Montgomery,
ir., is a wealthy resident Of Column
bus, Ohio, and the other defendants
call Los Angeles their home. w. A.
France was president of the oil COM
pany, Batchelder was secretary and
Thomas NJ. Montgomery treasurer.
Gillette denies that the has been in,
terested in the corporation for sew
eral months past.

Tie Rock Island railroad officials
are planning to be in salina some
time this week.
This is the information received
today from local passenger conduc-
tor. The preparations for their COM

OF the railroad officials themselves.

to tell the officials a lot OF things.
But the prime object of the visit is
to ask the Rock Island officials to
restore the two trains they recently
discontinued and Abilene will proba-

weeks. except in the case of Gillette,
who pleaded not guilty with the priv
iIege of withdrawing 1t later. This
action was taken, it was stated, as

defendants, c. A. Garfield and j. NJ.

company are quoted in the indict-
ments.
The Indictment charges that the
defendants owned what is known as
the York syndicate" tie California

provided by law.
