MONTA J. MOORE &
INDICTED IN HOUSTON
Was Formerly Prominent Attorney
and Politician Of Cameron--Weli
Known In This Section.

Monta J. Moore, formerly president;
G.. NJ. Henderson, formerly vice presi-
dent; and ". B. Sigh, formerly treas
urer of the American Trust Company
of Houston, were indicted Wednesday
by the state grand jury on charges OF
violating the state banking laws. I'm
mediately after the return of the in
dictments all three of the former Off
Gals furnished bond for their appear
ance for trial,
Six of the indictments returned are
against Monta j. Moore. He is charged
in four cases with the alleged offense
of misapplying funds OF state bank
ing and trust company, while in an
other he is charged with permitting
an officer of the bank to knowingly
become indebted to such bank. The
sixth charge against him is that OF
perjury. His bond in each case was
fixed at $1,000.
The charge against Sigh is that OF
perjury, while that against Henderson
is knowingly becoming indebted to
the bank while an officer of such in
stitution. The bond of each of these
officials was fixed at $1,000 by Judge
G. w. Robinson.
II is alleged in the indictments that
the statements contained in the aft
davit made by Moore and Sigh rela-
tive to the financial condition of the
American Trust Company were false.
The indictments set forth that one
statement contained in the affidavit
submitted to the state banking board
was to the effect that the American
Trust Company had, subject TO check,
in the Commerce Trust Company of
Kansas City, the sum of 1854 500 so,
when in fact no such an account was
in that institution to the credit Of the
Houston concern.
Another statement contained in the
affidavit was to the effect that the
American Trust Company had due it
from the Citizens National Bank of
Cameron the sum OF $5l ,1O9.7O, which
statement, the indictments allege, was
untrue.
Still another statement contained in
Bryan daily eagle and pilot. [volume] (Bryan, Tex.) 1909-1918, 1912-10-24

the affidavit which the indictments al
lege was untrue was to the effect that
the American Trust Company had due
it from the Houston National Elk
change Bank the sum of $44,97283.
II is alleged that the American Trust
Company had due 1t from the Houston
National Exchange Bank, subject to
check, less than $4,000. aroa
According TO the indictments, the
statement furnished to the state bank
ing board showed that there was due
from other banks and bankers, sub
ject to check, the sum Of $499,462.5O.
The indictment against Moore,
charging him with permitting an Of
iicer of state bank to knowingly
become indebted to such bank, sets
forth that on April 10, 1912, he per
mitted c. NJ. Henderson, then vice
president of the concern, to deposit
to his credit draft drawn on II. p.
Lockwood of Kansas City.
The four charges against Moore of
misappIying funds of a state banking
and trust company grew out of divi-
dend checks he is alleged to have de-
posted to his own credit, which We're
made payable to stockholders of the
concern. One was payable to Ross l..
Clark of Port Lavaca for 5000, an
other was payable to w. A. Wede-
gartner of San Benito for $147O, an
other was payable to c. f. w. Prizes
meyer of Rock Island for $50. an
other was payable to Gordon Hill of
Harlinger for $500.
Mr.. Moore is a practicing attorney,
who moved TO Houston about two
years ago from Cameron. Soon after
his arrival in this city he commenced
the organization of the trust company
and was elected president, in which
position he continued until last April.
Asked for statement by a repre-
sentative of The Post, Mr.. Moore said:
.'I really do not care to make any
statment at this time will say, how
ever, that my friends need have no
anxiety concerning the outcome of the
matter will also say that wish
for as early trial as possible"
Apart from saying that his attor-
neys might issue a statement concern
ing the charges, if in their judgment
they deemed statement at this time
necessary, Mr.. Moore would not fur
Their discuss the natter Houston
Post.

amelorate conditions and restore their
avenue to its usual evening quiet.
Porch parties in forrest avenue,
where neighbors gather in the gloam-
ing TO talk of various things, nearly
have been broken up by the sounds
scraped from steel by the trucks. Be
sides the gas wagons, ordinary horse
drawn vehicles with metal tires climb
upon the rails and stick there, and the
noise is like that of wooden legged
burglar throwing a At on tin roof
The honlng horns and clang of the
street car gongs were bad enough, but
the trucks are the worst, declare these
afflicted residents.

SPRINKLERS AT CITY
SEWAGE PLANT ARE
CHOKED BY FROGS

When number of city officials went
out recently to witness a demonstration
of the newly completed Proctor creek
sewage disposal plant, built with bond
money, the plant wouldn't work. After
tedious investigation, the engineers
discovered that the sprinkling nozzles
of the plant were stopped up with about
500 frogs.
The officials went out again today to
see the plant in which they take much
pride in operation, and it worked per
fectly.. Neither did it produce any Of
fensive odors. The engineers said they
took precaution to prevent frogs from
getting in the plant.
Councilman Aldine Chambers said
that he favored developing the land
around the plant into park.
