made. The explanation given the |
cashier by Bartlett when he gave the
instructions to change the entry was
that he had lost lot of money over |

"A cash discount Or eent was
paid by the Honolulu BrewIn. alt
ing Company, Limited, on all keg
beer sales | found by the records
that Bartlett had allowed an addition.
al discount of Is per cent on keg beer
sales and $40 per barrel on bottle
beer to the aforementioned saloons:
"Aala, Anchor, Encore, Fashion,
Kentucky, Pacific and Royal Annex.
These additional discounts were al.
lowed by Bartlett unknown to the sa-
loon keepers. 1t was the practise OF
Bartlett to receive from the cashier
OF the brewery monthly statement of i.
these discounts. He would then make
a notation on the statement as to the
disposition of each discount, whether
the same was to be paid in cash or ap-
piled to note. The total amount of
the cash payments would be paid to
Bartlett by the cashier, for which Bart.
lett would hand the cashier receipts on
which he had forged the name of the
saloon keeper. (See Is forged receipts,
Anchor 0dlOOh -ulSCOunISs q lOrSeO re-
ceipts, Royal Annex Saloon discounts;
6 forged receipts, Encore Saloon dis
counts; and forged receipts, Pacific

Spurious Notes.
when the discounts were to be ap.
piled to note, ii was found that the
note was spurious one Mote No ia,
dated March 2, 1914, by Phillip F.
Cornyn (Dick Sulliyan) for $1,604.50,
and Note No. 203, dated August IA, /
1914, by T. A. Marlowe for $1,500.00
are instances). Bartlett's object in
giving these notes was to obtain the
use of the face value of the
note from the brewery, making month
ly repayments OF the same by fraudu-
lent discounts in the manner above
outlined. -. ~ - ...'
