Mistaken Identity Is Shown
Hunt Brother.

Charges Of forgery against Jack
DUdka, 1O49 S. Fisher St, were dis
missed in city court Saturday, fol-
lowing a showing made by Atty

that his arrest was caused by a mis-
take in identity. In the meantime,
Mike Dudka, his brother, is wanted
by the police.
The case in which one brother was
mistaken for another and caused an
innocent mans detention in Jail for
as hours is an outgrowth Of an al
legged forgery Of names as indorsers
of a check given to Mike Dudka,
made payable 10 three parties. The
check called for the payment if $3.50
on the Chaplin State bank and was
signed by the Smogor Lumber Co.,

The story of the alleged fraud
goes back to when Dudka and two
others, named Stanislaus Rilinski.

czynski agreed 10 form a partner
ship for the building of q house The
money, represented by the check,
was paid 10 the Smogor Lumber Co.

Dudka is alleged to have then
sought refund OF the money, but
the company in question demanded
payment only when the three ap-
peared together. Dudka is then
charged with obtaining the services
Of Sam Miroszko and another man,
whose name is withheld, who. rep
resenting themselves as Bilinski and
Kulczynsli, secured the check.
Payment on the check was Sc
cured at the 10th State bank Feb. 8.

10 the next term OF the circuit court
grand jury under bonds Of $1,000.
