HOUNDED TO CRIME
by FALSE CHARGE
SAYS MAN IN JAIL
CIeave N. Williams Claims
Money Stolen by Boys
Around Depot Has Followed
Him Like Nemesis

The victim of a false accusation which
he hushed up because he could never
disprove it, according to his confession,
Cleave N Williams, alias ]. B. Harris,
and other names, after having been boot
ed from job to job throughout the United
States, is now in the Tower awaiting
trial on the charge of forging a money
order on a local grocery concern.
Williams was brought here from Dem
yer by Deputy Sheriff John Owens. In
Denver is his invalid wife, suffering
from tuberculosis, with which Williams
is also infected
He made a full confession to Chief
Armstrong, of the Denver police, he ex-
planned, because he had hoped to be tried
on a federal offense there and so kept
near his wife in a climate beneficial
to her health. He is wanted in various
cities by the express companies, his spe-
cialty it is alleged having been the use
of forged money orders and forged and
stolen railroad tickets.
Williams according TO his corfes-
sion, is thirty-two years old and was
born in Georgia. Lacking much educa-
ton, his father decided to give him an
education as a railroad telegrapher- He
finally got a job at Lindale.
SHORTAGE DISCOVERED.
Young fellows in the town, he says.
had access to his office, and suddenly
he found himself short in his accounts,
although he had never taken any OF the
roads money. He at first thought the
shortage was due to his bad bookkeep-
ing, not suspecting at the time that his
friends had robbed the Office. Fearing
the visit of the auditor, he covered his
shortage on the record, all except some
of it which the auditor found. He set
tied the shortage with his watch and
typewriter.
He wrote his father about the trou-
BILE, and the old man advised him to
keep quiet, promising, however, to make
good the loss for the son if the railroad
ever demanded it. He then went to Fort
Pierce, Fla, was arrested and brought
back to trial. His father made good
the shortage but the sons bond was
cancelled.
BOND FOLLOWED HIM.
That cancelled bond followed Williams
everywhere he went from Georgia to
San Francisco. No sooner did he get
a job under an assumed name than the
railroad learned about the bond and
discharged him. Finally he married,
but losing another job and lacking
transportation to another town he took
some railroad tickets which an agent
showed him how to use so they wouldn't
be turned in
However, they were turned in, and
thenceforth Williams travelled from town
to town, bounded now not only by the
old false accusation back in Lindale,
but also by real accusations, including
the Atlanta money order and the tick
cts that were turned in" Finally he
was apprehended in Denver.
Railroad men say that Williams is an
expert on inside" railroad business.
such as the handling of tickets and
rates, and that If he had kept straight
he would have commanded large sal
airy with any system Deputy Sheriff
Owens says his prisoner was likable
fellow and came back with him without
being handcuffed.

Birmingham, In Midst
OF Coal Mines, Facing
Famine in Coal Supply
(By Associated Press. }


BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Oct. 27.-Bir-
mingham, in the midst of one of the
greatest coal fields in the country, is
facing a coal famine, according to local
dealers They claim there is only thirty
days supply on the yards of Birming-
ham and that other southern cities are
in even worse plight because when the
present stock is gone the mines can
not supply coal as fast as needed.
Car shortage is given as the chief
cause of the trouble, as many mines of
the district can not now work at any
thing like full capacity because car s
can not be secured to move the prod
uct.
One prominent coal broker here to-
day said no city in the south had over
thirty days supply of coal on hand.
Another said many people in the south
would burn wood this winter who had
never burned wood before.
The car supply in the Birmingham
district is claimed to be under so per
cent of normal.
