QUTTMAN, GA, March 16.-A. c. Franken-
berger, alias F. c. Ward. alias T. s. Lyons,
was arrested here on Sunday last by Deputy
United States Marshal T. s. Davant of
Macon on a charge of counterfeiting and
was carried to Macon Sunday night.
Frankenberger, the name under which he
went while here, was at the time of his ar
rest cooking at the hotel Marie. He came
here about two weeks ago registering from
Birmingham though his wife and children
he said, we're in Tallahassee. He stoutly
denied that he was the man wanted and
told Mr.. Elder, the proprietor of the Marie,
to keep his place for him, that he would be
back in few days. When he came here
he brought no baggage and nothing tend
Ing to criminate him was found either on his
person or in his room, unless it was a
spool of fine silk thread such as is used in
the warp of bank bills. Judging from his
talk, Frankenberger seemed to know more
about showing the queer than he would ad-
nit He remarked to Marshal Davant that
it seemed TO him that the United States
marshals ought to be able to catch up with
more counterfeiters than they do, and when
the marshal said something to him about
turning states evidence and thus going free
himself his reply was that he would die and
go TO - before he would give ANYBODY
away. Marshal Davant thought that Frank
enberger was the same man who induced O
half-wltted countryman TO try and pass a
$50 counterfeit bill in Thomasville a few
week ago, and which resulted in the country
man being arrested and the man back of
him getting away.
