Kansas City. July S.-Should Donald
Carl Thompson be convicted of every
charge which the United states gov
ernment might file against him and
be sentenced to serve a one year term
in prison for every count, he would
have to live to be more than 4i3 years
old if he were to regain his liberty.
Thompson reckons thus with an express
sion Of calmness although since No
vember 1909, he has been behiaG the
bars of the federal prison at Leaven-
worth, Kan, and despite the fact that.
While he has just been discharged from
that prison, he is on his way to race
trial in the District of Columbia.
Thompson was arrested October p,
1903, at Norfolk Va, just the day af-
ter he had returned to the United
States from Europe. He was charged
with having impersonated Lieutenant
Earl Mcfarland of the United States
coast artillery and to have obtained
money on checks bearing the signature
of Mcfarland at Pittsbug, Pa. Taken
there for trial he entered a Plea OF
guilty and was sentenced to two years
confinement in Leavenworth prison.
Thompson is "A years old. He has a
divorced wife and a 5-year-o old daugh-
ter but his outlook for future happi-
ness is not very promising, he says.
You see 1 impersonated this lieu
tenant in 80 different states" re said
with a careless air 'I cashed checks to
the amount of some $4,000 and played
the game so strong that the counts
against me might number into the
hundreds. I wouldn't play the game
over again for a million dollars
Thompson was brought to Kansas
City yesterday by Deputy United States
Marshal w. H Mackey. He is under
arrest and will be arraigned for trial
in Washington, D. c.
