Ned Joyce, who had boon In North Piatte for several weeks selling stock in the ReX Refining Co., of Do Leon, Texas, was arrested Saturday night on the charge of violation of the Nebraska blue sky law in offering for sale the took without a permit from the stato commission. Tho information was filed by Harry Dixon, president of the Chamber of Commerce. Joyce was arralngued court and was admitted to a bail Hand of $5,000 which was signed by Poulos Bros. , ' Upon being notified that Information tornev ceiieral's Office sent out Attor- Tt 1. B t 4 nnnln 111 tHO prosecution, and the state securities. both of whom arrived yesieruay morn- tant attorney, three more complaints were filed against Joyce. In ono of I. i. .i ii. t inese cuiiipuiiiiis n wu uuuibv tho defendant Joyco had sold 3400 shares ofthe Hex stock to Albert uas pel for a consideration of ?51,000, two thousand shares to D. B. McNeol for $30,000 and over 400 shares to Mag nolia Duko for $4,100, Tsid that theso sales had been made without a state license or permit. Yesterday forenoon Joyco, accom panied by his attorney, J. J. Halligan. appeared before J.udgo Woodhurst and 'pleaded not guilty. On tho evidence submitted. Judge Woodhurst found tho defendant guilty and bound him over to the next Jury term of the mstnci court. In tho afternoon Joyce waived a hearing on the throe additional charees and upon agreement of tho attorneys for tho stato tho defendant vas placed under a bond of $6,000 for liia annearanco in tho next term of district court, or $1500 on each com- plaint. A bond Was given by a surety company. Several weeks ago Joyco applied to Secretary Moran, of tho Chamber of Commerce, for official endorsement to sell his stock in North Platte, but Avhen Joyfie failed to produce a state license, such approval waB denied. Shortly thereafter Joyce loft town, but later returned and at onco liega;n o cultivate the acquaintance of business r.'en and well-to-do farmers and ranchmen. He was accompanied by hislfamily, were quartered at tho Hotel McCabe and made his trips into the country in a high priced Marmon car. Joyce is a man of engaging per sonality and It is understood ho repre sented to the purchasers that, tho. dlvl; tlpriTTs on their stock would run as high as thirty per cent per month Mr. Parker, representing the attorney general.'s office, stated that so far as he know no investigation of the Rex Refininc Co. had been mado by the securities commission; that such In vesications were not generally mado until an application for license had been applied for, and that so far aB ho knew nr application to sell tho Rex stock had been mado. Had the ap plication been made, the standing of the company would have been inves tigated. The minimum fine for selling stock without n license is ono hundred dol lars per share and tho maximum fine one thousand dollars per share", no matter at what price the stock is1 sold at per share. Joyce has old at least 5SS0 shares in Lincoln county," and if fniml mint, ho would bo sublect to a minimum fine of $588,000. To pay hat fine might cause Mr. Joyce a little financial embarrassment. President Dixon filed tho informa Hon on the well taken ground that it is the duty of the Chamber of Com merce to protect tho public from un licensed siock salesmen, and in this instance Tho Tribune heartily com ' mends his action. ?-::o:: Attention School Children! !
