St. Louis Citizen Recovers
Money in Record Time to
Visit Atlanta.
Two thousand miles of railway travel
for a twenty-minute interview which
recovered $3,000 in stolen cash, was the
experience of J. J. Goettler, a wealthy
shoe dealer and banker of St. Louis,
who loft Atlanta today for his home. He
left St. Louis, traveled 995 miles to Jack
sonville, Fla., found his man, got his
cheek and left Jacksonville on the next
train out, twenty minutes after his ar
rival, Jiecause he had only one day to
spare and wanted to spend that in At
lanta.
Mr. Goettler had an employee in one
branch of his business who had suc
ceeded in keeping a large share of the
money taken in by the company, and
a short time ago the proprietor dis
covered the shortage He investigated
the employee’s bank account and dis
covered that about $4,00(1 stood to his
credit. The employee suspected that lie
was discovered and left St. Louis hur
riedly, after having transferred ills
money to his wife and so guarding
his property that it could not be re
covered by Goettler.
But the employee’s wife was more
honest than iter husband, and as soon
as she learned of the facts in the case
she told Mr. Goettler her husband was
in Jacksonville, and could lie found at
a certain hotel. She said also that lie
would lie willing to make restitution.
So Mr. Goettler, without an officer or
warrant, took the train for Jackson
ville and met the absconding employee.
"How shall we square things?" he
asked. “I don’t want to put you in jail.
I’m Horry It happened."
"Take everything I’ve got,” said the
repentant employee. "It s all in the
bank and here’s Hie certificate of de
posit made over to you. I think it
will about pay for what I took.”
He handed oyer a certificate for about
$4,000. Mr. Goettler took it.
“I’m not going to leave you out of
a job and broke,” lie said. “Here’s my
check for SI,OOO to give you a fresh
start. I think you are more likely to
keep straight If you start out with a
nestegg that’s honestly yours.”
And then he hurried to his train and
left for Atlanta. He took a walk out
Peachtree street yesterday, and said At
lanta was the livest town he had seen
anywhere except St. Louis, of course.
CALLED TO NORTH CAROLINA.

tist church, has received a call to Bur
