More Indictments for Kittels

Fargo, June 15.-Richard C, Kittel
and William +. Kittel, former presi-
dent and cashier respectively, of the
First National bank of Casselton, will
be arraigned before Judge Charles F.
Amidon in the federal court 10 o'clock
tomorrow morning and will plead to
new indictments against them alleg-
ing transportation Of funds, embez>
element, false reports to the comptrol-
Ter of currency and false entries. The
defendants will be represented by At
torney V. r. Lowell, acting for Judge
Engerud, whose illness prevents his
procedure it is expected that demur-
rers to the indictments will be filed.
With the return Of two indictments
OF 40 counts by the federal grand jury
in session last week and the two in
dictments carrying "a counts as re.
turned last fall, the Kittels now face
four indictments with SO counts, in
connection with the closing Of the Cas-
SETON bank, on Monday morning,
Dec. 6, 1915. The following day the
bank was taken over by National Bank
i
two old indictments, it was stated this
morning, counsel for the defendants
last Saturday filed demurrers and that
such informal action will be taken to
the new indictments at the arraign-
ment tomorrow.
Since the alleged shortage was re.
ported last fall, an expert, accountant
from Washington has had the books
IN charge. Other Irregularities, it is
said, have been found, extending over
a long period, some of which are out
lawed. This is given as the reason for
the return of the two new indictments
of Is counts by the recent session OF
the grand jury. .
Since the time Of their arrest last
December, Richard Kittel, the former
president, has been out on $40, 600 bail
bonds, and his brother on $4,000. The
shortage last fall was estimated at
from 100000 to 100000. The direc.
tors who opened the institution March
is, 1916, put up s1SO,0OO bonds, SO it is
thought that the shortage is approx
mately that amount. The closing OF
the bank is said to have been due to
the heavy speculation of the Kittels
through the agency of the Northern
Trading company, in McHenry county
lands. R. c. Kittel was president OF
the Trading company, and with his
brother, held large interests.
1t was expected that the trial OF the
kittels would come up at this term Of
federal court, but arguments were
heard before Judge Amidon and a
continuance was granted until next
| fall, when the case will come Up in
September.
The Kittels are expected to arrive in
Fargo this afternoon. Since the con
tlnuance OF the case, they have beer
at work disposing of much Of the hold

pany, making their obligations to theft
