INDIANA MAN IN CUSTODY OF At

Charged with Running n "Get-Rfch-
Quick" COncern-His Wife Pleads
for His Release.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
ATLANTA, Ga, May Pc. L. Sheets, of
Indiana, who came to Atlanta two months
ago, was arrested tonight charged with
running a ''get-rich-quick' concern which
the prosecutor says Is a swindle.
o. A. Willis had Sheets arrested. Willis
states that about month and half ago
he saw an advertisement in which Sheets
said he wanted $500 to invest, and he would
not only give valuable stocks for the money,
but would make the investor his secretary.
Willis answered the advertisement, says
he paid Sheets s171 and was installed as Sec
retary. After working with the promoter
for forty-five days at a salary of $50 a
month, Willis says he began to grow sus-
picious, as he received not a cent for his
services and saw not a scratch of a pen
In the way of stocks in either coal or gold
mines.
Tonight Sheets sent his wife to the rail-
way station, stating he would meet her
there later. When he arrived he was in the
custody of an officer who had a warrant
charging him with being a common cheat
and swindler. At the police barracks Sheets
tried to compromise the matter. Mrs. Sheets
offered Willis $5c in cash and a brooch,
which, she said, was worth $50. The police
would not allow any compromise Mrs
Sheets wept and begged Willis to release
her husband, appealing to him in every pos
sible way. but Willis was obdurate.

His statement was merely a result of his
