Buried in the woods near .lesup, Ga., detectives early to-day
found all but $10 of the $5,000 stolen from the keeping of the
Southern Express Company, in transit between Brunswick and
Atlanta banks, and solved in record-breaking time a remarkable
mystery. ’
J. I). Stringer, Jr., 22 years old, unmarried, and with no one
dependent on him, lias confessed to taking Ihe bills and substitut
ing newspaper cuttings for them. - He has been in the employ of
the Southern Express Company for two years, and in an official
statement the company says he was a trusted employee.
Stringer led detectives to the spot where the hills were buried,
they dug up the money by the light of lanterns, i! was midnight
when they finished their work.
The $5,000 to-day is on its way
to the Central Bank and Trust
Corporation, where it was con
signed by the Brunswick Bank
and Trust Company.
Pleads Guilty to Charge.
When taken to a justice court in
| .lesup this morning for a preliminary
j hearing, Stringer pleaded guilty and
I asked that his bond be fixed as low
| as possible. It was set at $6,000, and
i Stringer was returned to the county
I jail in default of it.
He probably will receive a trial in
I the Superior Court there next week.
I The grand jury convenes Monday,
I while a light docket may permit of
(the trial later in the week.
In a telegram to General Manager
.1 B. Hockaday, of the Southern Ex-
f press Company, this morning, Chief
’ Special Agent Watts said that Strin-
| ger had pleaded guilty .and the case
would go to the grand jury.
The Southern Express Company of
fered to pay the amount to the Cen
tral Bank and Trust Corporation this
morning, as the confession of the ex
press messenger had fixed the compa
ny's liability.
To Deliver Money Monday.
“We would rather, however, do what,
we set out to do—deliver that partic
ular package of bills,” said John B.
Hockaday, general manager of the ex
press company, to A. P. Coles, vice
president of the Central Bank and
Trust Corporation, over the telephone
G ariy this morning.
“All right,” said Mr. Coles. “We
would a little rather have that partic
ular money, I believe.”
So the currency will be delivered j
early Monday morning.
When dug up but $4,990 was found. ,
Stringer had taken $10 for his imme- !
diate use. He returned this later.
'Stringer has been with us two i
Gars,” said Mr. Hockaday. ‘‘He came
to us when he was 20 years old, and .
now is 22. He had the highest recom
mendations, and we believed him
thoroughly trustworthy. He must
ive thought he stood a chance ^o i
beat the system. Poor fool! It never
lias been done—never!”
Thomas J. Watts, chief special agent
■ f the company, is given the credit
t<<r a remarkable piece of detective
" ork.
Chief Watts worked in conjunction
Gth Sheriff D. S. Price, of Wayne
County, and after twenty hours’ work
tiie Sheriff arrested # Stringer, of
Thomaavllle, at his room in the (
Wayne Hotel at Jesup. Sheriff Price
placed him in the county jail, where i
he remained until his trial in tile jus.
e court this morning.
Motive for Theft a Mystery.
Reports from the cofnpany’s detec
tives are that Stringer is completely
unnerved, and that he has given them ,
information which clears up the dis
appearance of many small articles
J'hich have been dropping out of sight
*v~ a?>me weeks.
Stringer’s motive remains a mys
tery. He is young, is of good family.
' A as progressing rapidly in the serv-
yiee and had no expenses oth**r than for 1
4his own support.
He is in jail at Jesup.
His run ends at Jesup at 8:30;
o’clock. He has an hour and a half i
wait for the connection train. After
he turns over the valuables in his
care to the messenger on the con
necting train he stays in Jesup all
night.
It is believed, from meager details
supplied the offices here, that the tHeft
was committed during the hour and a
half wait.
Buried Money in Woods.
When the connection train left,
Stringer walked back along the tracks I eral Sickles,
some distance and turned into the j
woods. There he buried the money.
Seven men handled the package j
from the time the cashier of the
Brunswick Bank and Trust Company \
turned it in at the express office in
Brunswick until it was delivered -o
the Central Bank and Trust Corpora
tion in Atlanta. From Jesup it was
carried in a safe, the combination of
which was unknown to the messen
gers.
Because the package was handled so j
rapidly and passed from hand to hand
so quickly in Brunswick, suspicion at j
once pointed to Stringer as the only j
man who had the package from the j
time it left Brunswick until it was
locked up in the safe with the secret ;
combination.
Company Tells of Theft.
The Southern Express Company is-
sued this official statement to-day:
On April 16th, the Southern
Express Company received from
the Brunswick Bank and Trust I
Company, Brunswick, Ga., a
package, containing .$5,000, ad
dressed to the Central Bank and
Trust Company, Atlanta, Ga.
This parcel was handled as all
other valuables are—under the
protection of safes, and the per
sonal chock and signature of each
employee en route.
Shipment arrived at Atlanta
5:20 a. m., and was delivered to
the Central Bank within two
hours and a half, along with other
moneys. When the package was
opened a few minutes thereafter,
it was found that newspapers,
cut the size of bills, had been
substitut' d f o the currency.
Tribute Paid Detective.
The express company was im
mediately notified. The bank teller
who opened the parcel fortunate
ly had not disturbed the seals.
Upon minute examination, it was
evident ‘hat the seals hau been
ampered with.
The case was placed in the
hands of Thomas J. Watts, chief
special agent of the Southern Ex
press Company, one of the most
successful detectives the company
has ever had. It may be said, in
fact, that he seldom fails to get
what he goes after. Within less
than thirty-six hours Mr. Watts
had landed the thief.
The substitution of the news
papers for the money was done up
j. D. Stringer, Jr., the messenger
running from Brunswick to Jesup.
rfe buried the money a short dis
tance from Jesup, and the entire
amount has been recovered. Mr.
Stringer, who is now in jail, was
considered a trustworthy employee
and his past record was good. He
has been in the service of the
company for about two years. He
is unmarried. His motive for the
deed is not known.

some truths that Thomas A

ectaifsTs decided to file formal charges against three members of Council.
The accusations have been drawn up and are said to constitute
a startling exposure of corruption in Atlanta's city government.
The names of the accused
Councilinen are given and the
charges are specific. They are
said to he supported by affi
davits. They cover not only the
alleged connections between
Councilinen and certain large
beer interests, but lell actual
instances of graft in other
lines.
The report that the exposure was
about to be made created an intern;*? '
stir in political circles, and Coun-
cilmen who suspected they were to
be attacked prepared to defend
themselves. It is known that Aider-
man McClelland ir. his expose defies
the min he names to sue him for
libel It his charges are untrue, men
tioning, incidentally, the fact tiiat
is worth $25,000.
Expected to Prove Bombshell.
The expose Is expected to prove
a bombshell that will change mate
rially the present complexion of city
politics. McClelland decided to set it
off after the circulation of charges
against him which Involved him in
the alleged protection of a woman
who ran a disorderly house. It Is
said that his .statement, which will be
filed with City Council, shows among
other things:
That members of Council, tak
ing advantage of th*ir power over
locker clubs and near-beer sa
loons, got big loans from liquor
men.
That one membei of Council
made big profits out of sub-con
tracts with the city, held ille-
gaily.
That other members of Council
sold supplies to the city in viola
tion of law and at unduly high
rates.
These charges have been common
gossip for months, but new disclosures
are said to be made In addition. Ru
mors of graft gained conspicuous at
tention some weeks ago and Alder
man McClelland’s declaration that ho
would expose conditions brought the
matter to something of an issue.
Withdrew Resignation.
In the midst of the fight McClelland
announced his resignation but was
prevailed upon to withdraw it by
Mayor Woodward. Shortly after that
he came out with a reply to charges
that gossip only had made. He de
nied strenuously that he had ever
taken protection money from Eva
(’lark, who had held the attention of
the police for some time. He as
serted that the money she paid him
merely was a lawyer’s fee.
In the meantime Council authorized
the appointment of an investigating
committee which lias not formally
been named yet, but of which Aider-
man John S. Candler is the head.
Judge Candler in private talks has
given his Intimates in Council to un
derstand that if he is formally named
chairman of the committee the inves
tigation won’t be any halfway affair.
Mayor Woodward already has at
tacked the Integrity of the committee
and the personal animosity between
him and Alderman Candler Is we’l
known. Members of Council declare
they will not sit silent any more un

Miss Nell Wilson Collapses When
Informed D. A. Quarles Died
Following Operation.
Completely prostrated by the sud
den death of D. A. Quarles. Miss Nell
Wilson, his fiancee, is confined to her
home to-day in a serious condition,
her dreams shattered.
Even as late as yesterday morning
the young couple, whose engagement
was announced some time ago, were
making the plans for their future
home and happiness.
The wedding was to have taken
place June 7, and bridesmaids and
groomsmen for that event already
had been chosen. Busy for the past
few weeks with the arrangements for
the wedding and the preparation of
their home, the happy pair could not
see the darkness that was approach
ing.
Watched Home Rise.
The home site on DeGress Avenue
had already been selected, and each
the house was inspected.
Only the other day the paint had
been chosen, and Friday the men be
gan to finish up the interior.
Friday afternoon Mr. Quarles was
taken ill suddenly and removed to
the hospital. The doctors ordered an
immediate operation.
Barred from the hospital by the
orders of the physicians. Miss Wilson
.‘•at by the telephone throughout the
night, and received messages of
Quarlep’ condition.
At 3 o’clock this morning, when
Miss Wilson had almost collapsed
from the strain and anxiety. Quarles
died without having rallied from the
effects of the operation.
Feared to Tell Fiancee.
The hospital authorities were afraid
ithers suffered cuts and bruises when the shook would be too great if they
told his fiancee directly, «> they called
her brother, W. T. Wilson* and told
him what had happened.
Miss Wilson guessed the truth when
the telephone bell rang, and fainted.
She has been unable to leave her bed
since. In the same household her
father. W. T. B. Wilson, is seriously
ill.
The funeral of D. A. Quarles will
be held from his home, i4 North
Moreland Avenue, at 3 o’clock to-mor

Jf
WASHINGTON, April 19—The
failure of the Democratic organization
| in the House to appoint the stand
ing committee** of that body will de
lay an investigation which otherwise
might be attempted of the Weather
! Bureau.
The House Committee on Kxpendi-
l tures in the Department of Agricul-
j ture began an investigation of the
i bureau, hut it was sidetracked by
| more pressing matters.
Alderman McClelland has employed
Attorney Charles T. Hopkins to rep
resent him. One of the accused Al
dermen has retained Attorney Luthei
Z. Rosser.
It Is. as yet, undecided whether
the Fire Department probe committee
will reopen Its hearing. A majority
of the committee does not believe that
Thomas Reynolds, the mysterious
stranger who claims that he has
proof, will reveal anything new’, and
they want to submit their report vin
dicating Fire Chief Cummings to
Council Monday.
Mayor Woodward wants the inves
tigation reopened. He has persuaded
Chairman J. H. Harwell and Commit
teeman Clarence Uaverty that his
wish should be grdwted.
A new and startling turn was given
to-day to the fight to oust E. L. Wor
sham. State Entomologist, and Dr. H.
C. White, member of the university
faculty, from the staff of the Experi
ment Station, at Griffin, by the discov
ery that Dr. Andrew’ M. Soule, presi
dent of the State Agricultural College,
if the law is to be interpreted literal
ly might not have been legally ap
pointed a member of the board of
directors of the station when he voted
for Dr. R.* J. H. DeLoach as the new
director. He should have been named
annually, whereas he has received no
appointment since 1907.
The force of this discovery is evi
dent when it is recalled that DeLoach
won his election only by the narrow
margin of 8 votes to 7, and that by
Dr. Soule’s vote. Ira Williams, the
other candidate for the directorship,
was sponsored by Worsham and
White.
Not Appointed Since 1907.
Dr. Soule was made a member of
the board of directors of the Exper
iment Station by Governor Hoke
Smith on October 7, 1907, “for the
term ending January 5. 190S.” The
records show no subsequent appoint
ment. although the law states spe-
cifically that:
“A mi rnber of the faculty of the
State College of Agriculture, annual
ly to be designated by the Governor,
shall be an ex-officio member of the
board of directors.”
Attorney General Felder to-day de
clined to express an opinion on the
matter prior to the time when the
case might he brought to him offi
cially.
Not a Citizen of U. S.
Question previously has been raised
as to Dr. Soule’s eligibility to the
board in any circumstances, because
of the fact that he is not a citizen of
the United States. By some persons
the position of a member of the board
of directors, which has the control of
the receipts and expenditures of th''
Experiment. Station, is regarded as a
State office. If their contention holds,
Dr. Soul*', being an alien, would ne
prevented from holding membership.
