CHAMPION BAD MAN
BACK FROM EUROPE
Only Ocean Prevented Escape
From 99-Year Sentence.

New York, Aug 13.-Private John
Mosher, bad man" of the A. E. F.,
under a 50 year sentence for kill
ing an American sergeant, arrived on
the transport POcahOntaS, en- route to
Fort Leavenworth to serve his SEN
tencP.
Compilation of Mosher's record,
which reads like that of a dime novel
villain, began before the war, when
he emerged from a western peniten-
tiary and enlisted in Denver, conceal
ing his criminal past.
Thereafter it was a fair-siZed job
for one army clerk to keep track of
his entrance to and exits from guard
houses and military prisons.
Equipped with knowledge of Ger
man from his Austrian parentage, and
a smooth-working knowledge of jail
breaking and MISUNDERSTANDING, Pri-
vate MoSher was sent to Europe.
After the armistice his unit went to
CobIenz with the army of occupation,
but the lure of further travel called
Mosher and he continued on into the
interior of Austria. absent without
leave.
An American sergeant, Harry Carr,
was sent after him. The two men
met and Carr was shot to death. Then
the civil authorities of an Austrian
village arrested him for assaulting a
forester. He was brought to COblenz,
court martialed and sentenced to 90
years for killing Sergeant Carr.
With Private J. E. Bailey, cell
mate, he escaped, made a weapon of
wood that looked like pistol, and
for some time the two lived by rob

Ding traders who happened to pass
near a quarry where the two conceal
ed themselves.
Again he was arrested, and this
time placed aboard the POcohOntas to
be returned to America. On the trip
across the ocean he demonstrated his
mastery of devices of restraint by
wriggling free from a 42-pound iron
ball attached to his ankle and slip
ping off a pair of ingenious German
handouts.

sher was separated from other prison
