BIRMINGHAM Ala, Jan. 2O-The startli, ig
disclosures in the defalcation of City Court
Clerk Frank M. Iron has thrown this city
into fever of excitement. At first it was
supposed that $1,000 to 1000 would cover
the loss, but it has developed that the amount
may so as high as $4,000 The money is
supposed to have been invested in real estate,
with hope of a rise, but values suddenly
shrunk, and he was left no other recourse
but to fee. Iron left here two weeks ago,
saying that he was going to Atlanta in the
interest Of the Southern Base Ball League
A gentleman In this city left him at the
lepot in Atlanta, since which time he haa
not been seen or heard of. Iron came here
several years ago from Memphis, in which
city he moved in the best circles and was an
officer in the Bluff City Grays. Since he has
been here he has occupied high positions Of
trust, being secretary and treasurer of the
Gate City Land company, clerk of the city
court, director III the Birmingham National
bank, president of the Birmingham Base Ball
association, and first lieutenant of the Birni-
ngham Rifles
Iron was sober and industrious, and had
hosts Of friends. His position as city clerk
was worth Sl0,0 600 year at least His books
are now being examined. 1t is supposed that
he has gone to join the Canadian colony or
possibly to Europe. Iron is about five feet

hair, and weighs about one hundred and
