rested last July 1S, after Treasury
ard Justice agents dllegedly found
irregularities in the conduct of the
affairs OF the Fidelity Building q
Loan Association, which Rhodes
had headed as president. Suisse
quently Rhodes was charged Nth
the larceny of $4,000 from the in
stitution, which Wds placed in re-
ceirershtp. He denied the charge.
Fred B. Rhodes, former head of the
Fidelity Building g. Loan Association,
who was arrested July 18 simultan.
eously with the closing Of the associa.
ton by the controller Of the currency,
was indicted today on 20 larceny and
four forgery charges. The alleged
larcenies aggregate s43,5l9.59 OF
Fidelity funds.
The charges were contained in three
separate true bills, one with 20 larceny
counts, the second with one count of
forgery, and the third with three
forgery counts. Assistant United
States Attorney John ]. Wilson said
Rhodes probably would be tried first
on the forgery indictments, since the
transactions are less involved than
those giving rise 10 the larceny
allegations
Rhodes, who is so, is at liberty under
$4,000 bond. He is married, has four
children, and lives at AIS Seventeenth
street. For several years he has been
identified as an attorney with i'm
portant banking litigation, and main
tains law Offices in the National Press
Building.
Long Investigation Made.
The indictments are the result OF
lengthy and intensive investigation
by Treasury and Justice Department
agents and by Wilson and his asso-
ciate, Howard Boyd.
The larceny charges were brought
under section SOL of the District code,
which provides that any misappropria-
ton of building and loan association
funds shall be considered larceny and
punished as such.
Since the maximum penalty for
grand larceny is imprisonment for
from to 10 years, Rhodes, If found
guilty. could be sentenced on the lar
ceny indictment alone to from 40 to
200 years. Forgery also carries 2-to-
l0-year maximum, bringing the total
possible sentence up 48 to 240 years.
The alleged larcenies occurred dur
ing period from October II to De-
cember II, 1885, inclusive, and. for
the most part, involved transactions
in regard to Rhodes building opera
tions on tracts of land near Alex
andria, Va.
Unauthorized Drafts Claimed.
In eight of the larceny counts, the
Government claims that Rhodes,
| without authorization, drew on the
Fidelity's account in the Second Ma
tional Bank to finance construction of
houses on his Virginia property. debit

with corresponding overdrafts. These
