Trial of Souder Deputy Is Berlin i -— Move to Quash Indictments Against Former Lincoln County Official Fails. By Associated Press. North Platte, Neb., Jan. S.—Selec tion of a jury to try Elmer Baker, former deputy treasurer of Lincoln county, on charges of embezzlement got under way late today, after Judge •T. T. Tewell overruled motions to quash the indictments against Baker. Baker, who was a deputy under former Treasurer Samuel M. Souder, recently convicted of arson In connec tion with the burning of the old Lin coln county courthouse, was ousted after the fire and the subsequent dis covery that the treasurer and dep uty were short in their accounts. Baker is also charged wltn arson, but it is said he will not be brought to trial on this charge, as the evi dence used in convicting Souder in no way connected the former deputy with the burning of the courthouse. The indictment charging Raker with embezzlement said that he was short more than $9,000 in his ac counts. It was thought the jury would be completed by tomorrow aft ernoon. 1.800 Birds on Display at State Poultry Show T,lncoln.
