Gets Prison Term
George W. Coleman of Cambridge,
Mass., Confesses Larceny of
Funds.
BOSTON, May 19. Of fho three men re
sponsible for the larceny of nearly half the
assets of the National City bank of Cam
bridge, George W. Coleman, the book
keeper, confessed his guilt today and was
sentenced to serve fifteen years In prison.
and his alleged accomplices, William J.
Kellher and Wilson W. Lockhardt. demand
trial. Kellher' trial on the charge of
aiding and abetting Coleman In the larceny
of $308,000 began today.
Coleman probably will spend ten years
at Greenfield, to which Jail he was sen
tenced by Judge Hale In the United States
circuit court. That he was not sent to the
government prison at Atlanta was due to
District Attorney French who construes the
statutes for persons convicted of misap
plication of bank funds as warranting a
term In prison with hard labor.
The prison at Atlanta can ouly be used
for those sentenced to Imprisonment with
hard labor. Coleman wept when the clerk
read the decision of the court, but com
posed himself before he left the court for
the detention where his family and his
sweetheart. Miss Hlghtower of Kansas
City, endeavored to cheer him.
