FAKE BANK STOCK
DISPOSED OF IN
MADISON COUNTY

A eelVer swindle is exposed Madison
county authorities allege, in the arrest
OF Is. >. Dennison at Los Angeles where
ne is being held pending the arrival of
ldaho authorities. Governor Alexand-
er TO-DAY issued Il requisition on Gov
ernof Johnson of California for the re-
turn OF Dennison to Idaho. r. w.
smith, prosecuting attorney of Madi-
son county, appeared before the gov
ernor today and presented the case.
Armed with the papers he will 20 to
California or designate the sheriff of
Madison county to make the trip.
According to the story told the gov
ernor Dennison and a companion went
through Madison county promoting an
alleged fraudulent stock sale. They
are said to have sold blocks of stock.
collected money and notes on il and
left the investors holding the sack. The
companion of Dennison has not as yet
been apprehended. The specific charge
against Doth OF them is that they Sc
cured money under false pretenses.
TO INNOCENT PURCHASERS.
Both are claimed to have represented
they were authorized to sell stock of
the Stockgrowers' bank of Pocatello
This they disposed of in blocks at $780,
taking 500 down and the notes of the
purchasers for the other $500. The
notes were then sold to innocent pur
chasers. The stock buyers were led to
believe that they could borrow money
on their stock from the bank should
they desire. This is said to have been
an inducement that led not a few in
Vestors to place their earnings in the
worthless stock.
An investigation disclosed that the
alleged offenders were not authorized
to sell the capital stock of the bank;
that the stock they sold was worthless
and the holders of the stock and notes
found that they had invested in a get
rich-quick Wallingford scheme with
nothing to show for their investment.
The Madison authorities have been on
the trail of the two operators. They
managed to locate one of them at Los
Angeles. He was arrested and will be
returned to this state.
