New YorlI.-It was a surprised gate
man that peered through the iron bars
of the Tombs prison recently when q
big, clean-looking man knocked per
emptorily for admittance.
"G'wan away" said the gateman,
''this is prison; you can't get in
here
but | want to give myself up, tell
you" pleaded the man. Pm George
Smith and I've stolen money"
'Nothin' doin'," said the gateman
fatty, and turned to go away.
Then Smith asked to be taken to
detective, so he could ease his con-
he began padding the pay roll Of the
Interborough Rapid Transit company,
stealing, he said, between $500 and
$500.
'Well," hesltated the gateman, 'if
you're really telling the truth about
stealin' some jack, I'll let you in"
The gate opened TO let Smith in.
He's still In and he can't get out. To
a detective he said he lived az 50 East
One Hundred and Twenty-second
street. He worked, he said, talking
rapidly, in the shops at One Hundred
and Twenty-ninth street and Third
avenue. He earned $50 a week, taking
care of the overtime pay rolls. About
six months ago a man showed him
how to pad the pay roll, and after hold
ing ont some time he said he went
into the scheme, splitting the profits
with others.
''But the minute l got the first dol
lar began worrying" said Smith. ut

thinking about that money and then 1

quit the scheme and keep the pay roll

When Superintendent Smith of the |
shop made a formal charge of grand |
larceny George Smith sighed in relief
and said:
"Thank God, I've got that off my
mind. For the first time since l got

like life is worth living"
He was held in $1,000 bail in Har-
