INFORMATION FILM) AUAINST
STOCK SALESMAN JOYCE.
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.
