4 SPURIOUS
CHECK MAKES
TROUBLE FOR z
PRINTER-EDIToR AND A PAINTER
ARE HELD FOR INVESTIGATION,
COMPLAINT HAVING BEEN
FILED BY PERSONS WHO BE-
LIEVE THEY WERE INTENDED
VICTIMS OF BAD CHECK GAME

John Robertson, who has edited and
owned newspapers in the state Of Mis-
sissippi, and who is a printer, was
arrested in company with Thomas
Hawkins. a painter by trade, yesteT-
day morning by PatTOlman Benjamin
and jailed as dangerous and sus-
picious characters. Their arrest was
made upon information furnished by
a merchant who, he asserted, was
sought as a bad check victim. The
check was not caShed but was re-
turned to Hawkins who offered it in
payment for working clothes which
he had purchased. When searched
the check was not found and unless
complaint is made further. Robertson
will be discharged at this mornings
sessions Of the city court upon recon-
mendatiOn of the chief who heard
Robertson tell very plausible story
to Journal representative last night,
Hawkins, however, Will hardly get of
so lightly, as the police department
is in possession of information that
he had tried to dispose of the check
by getting It cashed at several points
The check was signed Charlie Tur-
ner,' and Hawkins claimed to have
received it in payment for labor per-
formed for the Turner Construction
Co.
Robertson told a detailed story of
his connection with the affair. Com
ing here Sunday he procured permit
to work in union Offices, but found
nothing to do He met Hawkins on
the street and recognized him as
man with whom he had formed an ac-
quainJance in Selma, Ala. Hawkins
and Robertson tried to get work at
several points but found none. Final
ly Hawkins produced the check and
together they visited several places
in the hope of getting money on it.
When a fourth refusal was met, Haw-
kins, with an oath. is said to have
torn the check in half. saying he was
going to Turner's shop and have mat
tiers reCtifed- That is the last heard
of the check. ChSs. Turner tele-
phoned Marshal Sanders yesterday
and wanted to know if the check was
held as evidence by the police. He
could not say for certain that Haw-
kins had ever worked for him
Robertson said last night that he
had owned and edited two newspa-
peTs in Mississippi. the last one being
in Collins, Miss. He said he had dis
posed of the paper because it was
Improbable, and that he set out to
make a living for his wife and chill
dren, who are in Wayne county, Miss.
In t1lking he appears TO study well
the statement he makes and uses good
language He seems to be well in
formed man, but regrets his present
predlcamPnt very much. His story
told for The Journal last night was
heard by several officers, who ALL
stated that they believed he was tell
ing a straight tale.

". |. WITCH
TELLS Of HIS
CHICAGO TRIP
REACHES THE WINDY CITY IN
GOOD SHAPE, HAVING NO MIS-
HAPS AND ONE SMALL BREAK
DOWN-MADE A VERY GOOD
RECORD ON THE RUN.

W. L. Witch, the first Pensacolian
to undertake a long run in an auto
mobile, has reached Chicago, having
made a very good run, considering
The roads. In a letter to The Journal
he tells Of his trip as follows:
Il arrived here yesterday in fairly
good shape. Had no mishaps and
only one small breakdown. My time
from Pensacola TO Chicago was u
IL hours, and the distance 122O.3
miles. Not very fast time, but con-
sidering the roads l think it is very
good.
Since 1 wrote you last at Nash
vile l have come over the famous
old Louisville and Nashville pike,
built about 65 years ago, and it is
about the toughest piece OF road !
ever struck. 1t is paved almost all
the way with stone set on edge, and
once had some dirt and gravel on
them Ii was no doubt then a good
road, but for many years no work
has been done and the rocks are bare
and stick up like needles. From
Nashville to Louisville is a very fne
country and they have splendid
crops. AS we crossed out Of Tennes-
see into Kentucky two autos with
NdSnNlll6 DCcplC hGlG aAiCu INV "
some mountain ruffians. We were two
miles behind them, and at breakfast
at a farmhouse they told us about IT..
A shot grazed one lady's arm, only
making a slight wound. From Louis
vile here we passed through some
splendid farming country and fine
crops. Some of the farmers say that
they will make IS to 100 bushels OF
corn per acre.
I'VE took in the races at India
napolis. and there was some pretty
fast going as you no doubt saw oy
the papers, but unfortunately five
men we're killed during the races,
three professionals and two country
men unlocking. ] think it comes too
high when men are killed to make
speed. It's a dangerous business,
but the stakes were high.
The weather the last few days has
been cool and pleasant. Have not
yet decided how / will return, prob
ably by way of New York.
