L. | ‘White and T. Hay Hudson, held to an- | swer on a charge of obtaining meney by false pretenses, were sustained by Judge Dunne sterd and the prison- ers ordered released from custody. The defendants ran a get-rich-quick concern called the Mutual Mercantiie Company and J. M. Furrer had them arrested for obtaining money from him 4t different times for eontracts which never fulfilled. It was claimed 1 the defendants that a number of small payments could not be aggre- gated-so as to bring the amount within a felony charge and the Judge agreed with that contention, remarking that each particular payment might consti- tute a-misdemeanor. The Judge also pointed out that the information was loosely drawn and indefinite. District Attornéy Langden is not satisfied with the opinion of the Judge and will probably take an appeal to the Supreme Court so as to have the point definitely decided. “Bring Them Out to California.” Bring out your folks and friends to Cali- fornia while rates are low.
