FUCHS MAY LEAVE
 CITY PRISON SOON
CREDITORS HERE AND IN NASH WILLIE. ARE SATISFIED TO SET. TLE-FATHER ls ENDEAvoRINo TO SQUARE ALL ACCOUNTS.

Nathaniel Hughs, the grey haired father of Clarence N. Hnghs. the young man who forged tho name of c. w. Perkins to sev- eral checks and drafts in Birmingham. may be a free man today. Steps arc be- ing taken to square up all accounts throughout tho United States against the youth, which will aggregate in the neigh borhood of s70Q0
 The charges against Hughs in Birming- ham and Nashville have been settled, ac- cording to information imparted by the police It Is understood that in defer ence to the father of the youth, that the victims of the young man here have agreed to accept in settlement less than the amounts secured by him from them.
 The only thing that prevents the assured safety of Young Hughs Is the allegation that he committed crimes in many other cities If his father can have the victims in other places agree not to prosecute his son, and accept instead remuneration commensurate with their loses, the pros poets for the boy being released today are bright.
 The Senior Hugh called at police head quarters yesterday afterf1oon in connec- tion with the case of his son, but said nothing that would indicate a definite set clement of the situation. It Is said that Solicitor Heflin has agreed to waive prose- cution of the youth if all accounts against him are settled here. It Is presumed that victims of Hughs throughout the United States will agree not to prosecute if the accounts can be made good
 Hughs is still confined in the city jail, and is making the best of his condition He expresses the belief that his father and other relatives will get him out of his present trouble. The boy realizes his error and states that in the future he will profit by what has occurred and will shun bad company and the environments of such Q life.
