BAD COMPANY LED THIS YOUTH WRONG ATLANTA. Nov. 3.—The finding by detectives of the'picture Qf a pretty young woman in the pocket book ol Otis BrOgdon, 23 years of age. scion of highly respected and Influential pa rents In.* North Georgia county, prov ed the key to the motive thdt prompt ed the young man to operate one of the cleverest steals unearthed in At lanta In a long while. Behind the bars of a police station cell, Brogdon. a young man of neat appearance, with a pleasant and Intel- gent face, frankly confessed that he Is a gas meter robber, and attributed hls downfall to his love for a woman and bad associates. Declaring he has nAver gambled in any form and that he does not drink, the young prisoner exclaimed: •Women and bad associates have led m# to this prison cell. My natural Instincts and training would never have caused me to steal. This Is all the excuse I have for my conduct.” Toung Brogdon, who boards at 177 Luckle street, was arrested Monday afternoon by Detective Roberts, who. with Detectives Harper and Doraett, has been for several days trying, to solve the mystery of the many ga* meter robberies in the city. He was 'taken into custody after he had-been shadowed for some time and had bean seen to loot several meters. Brogdon was connected with the At lanta Gas Light Company for two years and knew well how to operate hls game. He would-,go Into a resi dence, representing himself as a mater reader for the gas company, and, stat ing that he wanted to read the meter, would theh rob It of all Its coin. He would open the meters with a spe cially prepared key, which he admit* he had made for this purpose. . While confessing his guilt,, young Brogdon Insists that he only operated on two days—one day last motith and again yesterday. On these two occa sions, he says, he obtained about 260 or 175. all in quarters. These quar ters he had changed into greenbacks. Tho detectives say the gas company last month alone lost more than S300 by the work of meter robbers, but Brogdon declares he did not get all of this money. The young man says hls arrest has taught him a lesson and that he wgnts to begin life anew. He will probably be tried Wednesday In police court.
