Charles Heater, Of Salem, Runs
Across Missing Man, Who is
Charged With Forgery.
ASSUMES NAME OF STOUT.
Goes Into business in GaIIipoIis, o.,
and Leaves People There
in the .Lurch.

Former Constable ]. E. Sutton. OF
Salem. who disappeared last fall soon
after he had given heavy bond to
appear here to answer an indictment
for forgery, and who was SO indict-
ed at the December term of the cir
cult court, may yet be located and
brought back for trial
Early in the present year big
fellow calling himself J A. Stout
went to Gallipolis, O.. and engaged
in the coal business with Mcconnell.
He soon became we'll known about
the town, and so far as was known
did a prosperous business. Early
in the summer Mr.. Mcconnell, for
reasons of his own, withdrew from
the partnership, and the man, who
went under the name of j. A. Stout,
later sold his business to j. Ed. Har-
rison.
About three weeks ago a man
named Charles r. Heater went to
,Gallipolis, saw Stout on the street
and notified the local police that
Stout was really James r. Sutton,
and fugitive from justice having been
indicted in this city in December.
1906, for forging and attempting to
utter a promisory note for $4,000.
to which he had signed the name
of Silas Fittro.
Heater seemed scared when ne
gave this information, and the po-
lice. in order to be sure, wrote to
this city. Prosecuting Attorney VIII
E. Morris then wrote back a de-
scription that fitted Stout to dot,
and added that Heater knew Sutton
very we'll and that his Identification
could be depended upon.
Meanwhile Stout had apparently
seen his old acquaintance, and fear
ing apprehension got out of town.
He represented himself there as
single. Since then the police have
been trying TO locate him but he
has got out of reach.
Every effort had been made to
keep the facts under cover. but they
finally leaked out.
Mr.. Harrison had to pay 1926 for
coal which Stout defaulted on, and
there are others IN Gallipolis who
have little bills which he failed to
pay.
