Cook is Held

 

Columbus, Neb., March 5 - Special

 

The preliminary hearing of W. Cook, charged with forging a note for $641.10 about a year ago, was held today before the county judge.  The evidence was strong enough to hold him, and bail was fixed at $1,000.  He went to jail to await the action of the district court.  

 

Checks on Clay, Robinson & Co. of South Omaha were found in his possession. He confessed to being an all around dead game sport and professional gambler.  He is supposed to be wanted elsewhere.
