Professional Given No CIemency BY
Justice Jackola Today.

JUSTICE JdCkOId Oudy.
The first definite step to stop the
nuisance of professional beggars, some
of whom are said to work for a beg
gars' employment agency. and to share
their profits with that institution, was
taken today when Alfred Oberg, a
young man, minus both legs was ar
rested and arraigned before Justice
Jackola on a disorderly charge. 1t was
claimed Oberg had been fairly success
ful i'm his campaign of solicitation in
Calumet since pay day, and that he
had accumulated nice little wad of
money, which he proceeded to spend
freely in Laughing water" In a short
time, he lost control of himself and il
is said cursed everyone who failed to
observe the hat. Justice JaclSola or
dered the man to take the first train
out of Calumet and if he is again ap-
pretended in Houghton county, is
promised a years sentence to the
lonia workhouse. Oberg has complete
~ disappeared.
The case of Moses Johnson. charged
with assault with intent to do great
bodily harm less than the crime of
murder was continued by Justice Jack
ola until next Thursday
I.azo Bozanich. charged by Mile Bo-
zanich with bestiality, was this morn

made for slaves and time for freemeng"
He finally oyeruled Mr.. Bali
The witness said the reason why the
items were not included in the memo
randum was because the case was set
for trial and the statute of limitations
ran on some Of the items as the case
was continued.
On examination by Mr. Nields the
witness stated that the overdrafts and
the difference in their paper amount did
not affect the $4,000 mortgage in the
reports TO the comptroller. On cross
examination he admitted that the over
drafts would affect the books of the
bank
Fowler CrOss-Examlned.
A. l.. Fowler was called by Mr..
Ball for cross-examination He ad-
mitted that he had examined the
books OF the bank in 1909 and passed
upon them as correct. He said that
not more than ~ or IS accounts out
If about 900 In the individual ledger
had been balanced to show whether
the deposits we're overdrawn or not.
Robert ID. Stockton, a public ac-
countant, was the next witness called
by the prosecution and told of an
examination he had made at the bank
on August s, 1912. He said he was
sent there by a firm Of Philadelphia
accountants after they had been re-
tanned by the bank directors. The
examination lasted FIVE or six days
He found a difference IN the notes
and the accounts of the bank. When
asked about 1t Mr. Kelley said
only shortage of $3.50 was found in
the notes. He was not satisfied with
this and in making up his schedules,
he went over the notes and found one
small one which was not the property
of the bank. He told Mr.. Kelley
there might be more of these notes.
Another examination revealed the
fact that there was more than $500
worth OF collection notes included in
the list. He found a difference of
S2,7Sl.26. An examination Of the
pass books did not change the re-
suit of a trial balance which showed
balance Of $1S,73S.79 greater than
the general ledger deposit account.
The witness was asked TO step aside
while Mr.. Lockwood looked at the
bills and notes accounts, which. he
said, was made by Mr. Kelley.
After making his report witness
said he was asked TO return to locate
the $4,000 difference with the
ledger.
What did you do" asked Mr..
Nields.
I'VE commenced an examination OF
the offering books. A footing made
on February s, 1898, showed a mis-
take of $4,000 II was pointed out
| by Mr.. Lockwood"
The witness was asked TO find sew
eral accounts preparatory to testify
/ ing about them. Mr. Nields asked
him TO arrange them so that he would
not have to look them up again this
morning. Tho witness stated that
this would take some time and as 1t
was nearly five o'clock, Judge Brad.
