BANK CASES END

Criminal Charges Against Gillian and Jacobs Are Dismissed

Nearly a dozen criminal charges against former officers of the defupct- Noble Cunty Bsnk & Trust company at Kendallville were dismissed in court at Albion Friday. The action brings the criminal !litigation of the bank’s failure to an end. :

Prosecutor Gleny. Thrapp dismissed charges of embezzlement aéalnst Milton K. Jacobs and W. A. Gillian who recently was acquittad of banker’s embezzlement by a Noble county jury. - 3 Milton Jacobs is at presemt under convicition of banker’s embezzlement but has appealed the case and is now awaiting a supreme court ruling. Tt is believed he will be granted a new trial since there were no women on the Steuben county jury which convicted him. o

The charges dropped Friday pertained to alleged purchase of wortales securities with the bank’s funds. These charges were never pressd.

'Whether Milton Jacobg will be retried is problematical, sinc2 (Gillian’'s acquittal. The, evidence against Jacobs is very similar to that against Gillian. Embezzlement charges against Samuel K. Jacobs, New York financier, who was president of the "ank were transferred to the inactive docket. Jacobs has heen reported dad, but the cases were not dismisgsed simply as a matter of precaution. It was alleged that unwise loans and purchases of Jacobs brought ultimate diisaster to the bank

Landmarks Are Belng Dismantled,

Spring housecleaning is under way in the Rome City postoffice. Postmaster T. J. Conley' has dispensed with the old type lock boxes and has installed a section of modern lock boxeg for pa'rons. A few of the old call boxes remaiii’ in use, however.

How old these boxes are has not been determined, but it is certain they have been in use much longer than a balf century. And thus gradually the “landmarks” of Rome City are being discarded, torn down and eventually forgotten.~ The old G. B. & 1. freight house which wag raz:ed by workmen in the fall, removed one of the so-called landmarks. The bullding which was on the west side of the railrecad tracks, originally was on the east side and served as the first station or depot. After the “new” station wag built the old on? was moved across the tracks for use as g freight house. With the decline in freight business there the railroad company sold the building a few years ago to Marion Donat local coa! dealer and businesg man. Lumber and materials from the dismantled building were sold by M- Donat und taken away from there.

Lowdén To Be KeYnoter,

Former Governor Frark 0. Lowden, of Illinoig was tentatively seleet ed ag keynoter for the republican national convntion at Cleveland.

Rpublican leaders were -agreed upon the selection but had not obteined Lowden’s consen: He was keynoter at last year's grass roots conference, however. and was expected to accept the new invitation.
