TO BE FREE IN JULY.
Logansport Man’s Sentence for Übero Swindle Nearly Served, Logansport, Ind., June 28. A letter was received here yesterday from Fred Berges, formerly of Logansport, saying he expects to be released from the Massachusetts state' prison in July. Berges was convicted of complicity in the Übero plantation swindle in Boston a number of years ago and was to state prison. As a result of good behavior a year has been cut off his sentence. His wife, daughter of Andy Wirwahm, of Logansport, obtained a divorce in the Cass circuit court. She has been employed as a milliner in Indianapolis for several years.
