OCTOBER 29, 1920 " . ............. -r!!5'-w ...m. -. j Vice-President Hines, Also Half Brother or Institution Head, Hold by Grand Jury. MEDFORD, Or., Oct. 28. (Special.) Thirteen indictments were returned by the grand jury late last night as a result of the failure of the Bank of Jacksonville and were made public yesterday. Myrtle Blakely, county treasurer, in two indictments was charged with malfeasance in office and aiding and abetting the cashier to make a false statement to the bank examiner. It. D. Hines, half-brother of W. H. Johnson and vice-president of the de funct .institution, was the subject of eight indictments. four charging knowingly falsifying statements to the bank examiner, three charging receiving deposits in a known in solvent bank and one alleging certi fying a check when known drawer did not have the money to his credit. Bank IVrnident Indlctrd. W. H. Johnson, president and cash ier of the bank, in three indictments was charged with receiving . money when the bank was known to be in solvent. Johnson and Hines were ar raigned this morning and will plead Saturday morning at 9:30. Hines' bail was fixed at $10,000 and efforts were begun by his attorney and friends to obtain the sum. County Treasurer Blakely was ar raigned, entered a plea of not guilty and released on her own recognizance. The indictments against the county treasurer came as a surprise and her friends maintained that she is "the goat." None believe her guilty of any criminal intent, but all declare that she is the victim of a chain of circumstances. She is one of the best known women in Jackson county, with a wide circle of friends, and one of the first women in Oregon to hold Jury Adjourns .The grand jury adjourned until No vember 5, when it will resume its probe of the bank's affairs and other indictments will be returned. The scope of the investigation covers a wide field and it is tedious work to untangle the maze that surrounded the operation of the bank. Hines was formerly a member of the firm of Hines & Snyder . of this city, automobile dealers. He is well known and was in charge of the bank, it was said, when President Johnson went east on a church move ment campaign a month before its failure. Surprise was expressed .that Johnson had been indicted on only three counts. This was accounted for by the statement that the grand jury has not completed its work. Convict tion on any one of the three counts would call for a prison term of from one to ten years. Owing to the fact that the grand jury will resume its sessions Novem ber 5, no statement was forthcom ing on the investigation, except that new indictments would probably re sult. Hines, tonight was unable to raise his bond of $10,000. The bail of Johnson, who has been in jail ever since the bank failed, was placed at $50,000, which he has never tried to raise. o n o D o .
