' CONFESSES SWINDLES AGGREGATING $500,000 St. Louis Man for Ycars Maintianed Dual Identity of Banker and Forger of Realty Documents. St. Louis, Mo., Aug. 30.—After main” taining for years, as alleged, a dual identity of banker and prominent citi- zen of Forrest City, Ark., and forger of realty documents in other parts of the country, John W. Kline of St Louis, was under arrest here today. He has confessed, according to de- tectives, of swindles aggregating more than $500,000. As a bank director in the Arkansas city Kline was known as John W. Barnhardt. He was arrested here last night. He had escaped jail two weeks ago, the police said, from Waukesha, Wis., where his methods in attempt- ing to mortgage property brought him under suspicion. The complaints against Kline allege that it was his method to go into a rich farming com- munity, inquire for a good farm he might buy, and get acquainted with men of money. When he had selected a farm, it was charged, he either bor- rowed the deed and made out a bogus deed to himself, or he bought the farm, paid for it by check and took possession of the deed. As soon as the deed was safely recorded in his name, Kline, his accusers say, mort- gaged it and by the time the check was returned marked ‘no funds” he had gone back to Arkansas to become a banker again.
