Man During Imprisonment Tells Inter
 esting Story of Life.
 Birmingham. Aug. 2.-(Special. )-- When a trip of tram cars on the incline in mine No. of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad Company struck and mashed James Ryan, convict sent up from Mobile for grand larceny, it brought death to a man who had trav- eled all over the United States, carry ing on the avoeatioH of dip" accord ing to his own statement. and ended the career of a man who had gathered in as many diamonds from shirts and ties and pocketbooks from pockets as any man in the criminal history of this country. He was serving out five years sentence and was working on the incline. going up and down with the trips of tram cars. In some man. ner he was caught and his head was mangled.
 The remains of the unfortunate con- vict were today turned over to Augwin & Echols at Ensley, and will be given a decent burial on Monday If relatives or friends are not heard from.
 Ryan was arrested in d big crowd in Mobile during the time the President visited that city T was simply nap ping when the police pinched me-" said Ryan himself a few. weeks ago In conversation with newspaper man at the penttenttary in Pratt City. T was careless, must admit, but I believe 1t was the best thing for me. for 1t has given me a lesson that I cannot forget. and has taught me to work honestly for living, and when leave here, now but dozen months off-yes, a little less-I am going to give up my practice in the past and try to get an honorable position"
 Ryan spoke interestingly of his ca reer. He knew not what work was. He made a study of crowds and read up where there was likely to be a crowd. To that place he went and he succeeded in picking up many a purse from an unsuspecting victims pocket, ur a handsome stud from a tie. The latter work was his favorite, and many a sparkler fell into his possession. Ryan had three fences" one in Hot Springs. which. he says. is the more honest. be- cause 1t sent better remuneration, one in St. Louis and one in New York. The latter place, said Ryan, disposed of the more valuable stones to some of the largest dealers In the world. but they did not return much money.
 Ryan has relatives in Youngstown and Cleveland. O. and telegrams were sent to them asking as to disposition of body. Should they not be heard from. the body will be buried outside of the peniteneitary cemetery. Wardens and other friends who had taken a liking to the man because of his jovial nature and his forwardness in telling the interesting story of his life, have seen to 1t that he Is given a good burial The man lived four hours af- ter meeting with his accident.
