FOUL PLAY SUSPECTED.
Charles GoOding Has Been Missing
Since Saturday.

Charles Gooding, aged 81 years and
native of Indiana, has been missing
from his boarding house at No. 515
Liberty street, east, since Saturday
night, and his friends believed that ne
has been fouIly dealt with. With this
theory they have reported the case at
police headquarters, and have asked
the detectives to make an effort to find
out something about the missing man.
Gooding was a laborer, and for the
last three years boarded with S. t.
Moore, who runs bicycle shop at No.
537 Liberty street, east, a few doors
from his residence. Mr.. Moore is quite
certain that Gooding was murdered,
and robbed, and his body then thrown
in the river. Although the missing
man is somewhat in his debt, he had
been in the same position many times
before, and, too for much larger sums.
Goodtng was at one time a Waterman
on the Plant System wharf and while
there frequented an East Side dive,
where he drank beer. This appears to
have been his only trouble, and Mr..
Moore believes caused his death. Good
ing visited the dive often after he left
the wharf, and it is thought that he
might have been killed while on his
way to the place
He worked last week for the Electric
Supply Company, and was paid off Sat
urday night. Since that time he has
not been seen, and Mr. Moore says that
the money he drew for his week S work
probably caused him to meet a tragic
death. He was in the usual spirits
whom he loft 10 hAorIfnrr Co
urday morning, and wore a suit of
overalls. He worked steadily during
the day, and did not appear moody.
On the contrary, he seemed in excellent
spirits, and the suicide theory is not
entertained.
Mr.. Moore refuses to believe that
Gooding left the city of his own ac-
cord, in order to escape paying his
debts. His trunk full of clothing is in
his room, at his boarding house, and,
too, he had been indebted to his land
lord in much larger sums than the one
which he now owes. Mr.. Moore is quite
confident that the missing man was
robbed and killed, and believes that his
bruised body will yet be found floating
in the river.
Gooding came to Savannah three
years ago and made his home with
Moore. He was a laborer and seemed
TO nnd no trouble in securing employ
ment when he was disposed to work.
he mad cheerful disposition, and as
far as is known, had no enemies.
1t is within the range of even prob
ability that the man was not murdered
after all. 1t may be that he was
drugged, robbed and then placed on
board an outgoing vessel. Although
past the middle age Gooding was an
active man, and would have been worth
something to a sailor stealer. He did
not carry his age on his face, and
could have been easily palmed off on
an unsuspecting captain as a mariner
of some experience. If, after all. Good
ing was not killed, but was only ship
ped on board a vessel, he will prob
ably return to Savannah and tell his
story to Moore. In the meantime the
police are keeping a close watch for
him, and are making every effort to
obtain some clue upon which to work.

INDIANS WILL Arm
Chippewas of Pine Point Will Make
a Demonstration.
OBJECT TO THE REMOVAL oFLoGS
Their Rights, They Say, Are Ignored
Capt. MERGERS Estimate
Not Acceptable.

Special to The Journal.
ST. Cloud, Mimi, May S.-Authentic in
formation has been received here that the
Chippewa Indians of Pine Point, Twin
Lakes and Gull Lake, are to arm them
selves and march, on Sunday, around the
lake for the purpose of preventing the
removal of from 15,OOO,OOO to 10000, 900
feet of pine logs, the property of the
Commonwealth Lumber company Of
Frazee. The logs were cut under the
dead and down law and the Indians claim
they are green.
There are between 300 and 400 Indians,
all removal Indians" and they claim
that Captain Mercer and everybody else
is cOgnizant of the injustice done them.
They will not accept his estimate and will
fight for what they claim are their rights.
The Indians are said to be desperate
and hostile in their intentions toward
the whites around the lake on the White
Earth reservation thirty-fve miles north
of Detroit. The information was received
from a trustworthy source, and 1t is be-
lieved that another Leech Lake trouble
is in prospect

It's Object to Raise Tariffs on
American Goods.
A FRENCH PREDICTION
What May Come if Americans En-
croach on European Markets.
A >FRANco-YANKEE RECIPROCITY
Former Member of the
French Cabinet.

Chicago, May S.-''If the great trusts
in this country encroach on European
markets to the detriment of European
manufacturers, I predict a combination
of the commercial countries of Europe to
raise tariffs on American goods to almost
prohibitive figures"
So spoke Jules Siegfried, Frances min
lister of industry, commerce and the col
onfes in the cabinet of Ribot in 1892 and
1898. who is now in this city. He contin-
ued:
There is but one logical solution of the
present situation, and that is the signing OF
a fair and equitable reciprocity treaty be-
tween the different nations. l always have
been in favor of such treaties, because they
foster trade and increase the friendliness
of political relations between countries party
to them 1t really is the only logical solu-
ton of the approaching trouble.
Do I believe a combination Of European
powers is probable in the near future? Well,
it will follow after several Of the countries
have put up their tariffs to protect their
own manufacturers. You are a wonderful
people and your country is marvellous in its
resources. When your competition becomes
so great as to be alarming the combina-
tion of governments will be very natural
result. Under reciprocity this situation would
be almost impossible. Take my own country,
France for example. We buy our STEEL iron
and machinery from England, but we could
buy 1t from your mills just well. Under
a reciprocity agreement between the two
governments we would come to you for our
STEEL our iron, our coal, our machinery
and in fact nearly all of the material used
in our manufactures and industries. On the
other hand, we would send your our gloves,
our fine linen. and lace and cotton goods,
and the commercial relations established
would bring the two countries into closer AMI
more cordial political relations. 1t would be
a benefit TO both.

What About the Burlington9

approval of the Burlington purchase by
Northern Pacific shareholders Their pur-
chases, for the most part, have been made
within week Some compromise will be
made, as the parties in conflict are SO i'm
portant and Union Pacific's interests, which
the management of that property felt were
threatened by the aggressive policy of the
Northern Pacific, will be protected by agree
ment or by Mr.. Hartman and perhaps other
Union Pacific directors going into the North
ern Pacific board. These are matters which,
necessarily, are still unsettled but Kuhn,
Loeb Co. row virtually have the power
to determine whether Northern Pacific will
secure the Burlington and with assurance
given that their Union Pacific interests will
be fully protected, it appeared to-day that
they would not push their advantage so far
as to stop the merger proposed by Mr.. Hill.

Madison, Wis, May S.-Despite strong
speech by Assemblyman Orton, in which he
denounced the bill as legalizing gambling,
the assembly this morning refused to re-
consider the bill permitting pool selling
by a vote of Al to 40 The bill now goes
to the senate.
The assembly passed the bill for the
licensing of stationery engineers and also
the bill providing a state appropriation
for free high schools. The amendment OF
the committee on claims to the bill for a
uniform system Of state bookkeeping,
which empowered the secretary of state
to employ additional help to carry out the
provisions of the bill, was rejected and
the measure ordered engrossed in Its
original form, compelling the secretary OF
state to keep the books under the system
with the present help. The debate over
the bill was very bitter and Assemblymen
Hall and Sturtevant claimed the secretary
of state had now plenty of help with
which to keep the states books under the
present system.
The senate laid the apportionment bill,
passed in the assembly last night, over
until this evening. Senator Kreutzer has
some objections to the form Of the tenth
district, but the general belief appears
to be the bill will be passed in the form
in which 1t now drawn.
The senate this morning passed a reso-
luton for final adjournment at noon on
Wednesday. May Is. This resolution cuts
off ali calendar work at noon Saturday.
The assembly laid the resolution over un-
til tomorrow, but will probably finally
adopt it. Burns caucus and convention
bill was passed under suspension OF the
rules in the senate.

GLADSTONE'S FIRE
The Losses Will Run Up to
$4,000, With Small
Insurance.

Special to The Journal.
Gladstone, Mich, May S.-The terrific
fire which began az O'Clock this morn
ing has at last been brought under con-
troll and the town escaped the entire de-
struction of it's most valuable street by a
hairs breadth. That the whole of Delta
avenue was not burned seems incredible,
as a strong northeast wind was blowing
directly against the town and the fire had
gained great headway before the alarm
was sent in.
No one was killed or injured badly, al
though narrow escapes from falling roofs
were common. One of the worst features
of the fire is that very little of the
property was insured. The losses are as
follows: P. and H B. Laing, 5000; in
surance, $1,000; F. Hoyt, grocer, 81 900;
no Insurance; DR.. N. Kee, $1,000; no in
surance; A Nicholas, hardware, S., 900:
insured for $500; James McWilliams,
house, $4,000; insured for 1000;
S. Goldstein, dry goods, $4,000; stock
saved; c. H. Scott, furniture store, $1,000;
insured fer $1,000; Delta Printing COM
pany, $4,000; insurance not known; G. R.

liam McCaIlum, loss $500; no insurance.

rived, but not until after the fire was
extinguished.

FARR IS ON HIS WAY
VIII Scale the Green Timber Tres
pass at Leech Lake.

]. r. Farr superintendent Of logging
operations on the Indian reserves who
co-operated with Captain w. A. Mercer
in scaling the green timber trespass un-
der last winters dead and down" op-
erations on the Leech Lake and Chippewa
reservations, is at the Hotel Nicollet. Mr..
Farr is on his way back to the Leech Lake
district, where he will confer with Cap
tain Mercer as to the wind-up of the op-
erations in that territory.
In an interview in T J ur n l. a
few weeks ago, Mr.. Farr said that he ex-
peeted to visit the White Earth and Red
Lake reservations and scale the green
trespass unless otherwise ordered by the
Indian department. Having received no
instructions to interfere with his original
intentions, Mr.. Farr expects to visit the
two reservations and scale the green tres
pass. Whatever green logs were cut in
those districts are now on the drive, but
Mr.. Farr says their absence is matter
of small moment as he will visit the works
or cuttings and take a close account of
stumpage. Said he:
Considering the complicated nature of this
whole dead and down proposition T b g
Journ a published a very comcprehensive We
summing up of the situation. It was impair
tial to all concerned and gave a truthful ex-
position of just what the state of affairs was
up there. 1 have only one exception to take
to the article-I mean the inference which
might be drawn from 1t that my work up
there was guesswork-that l had jumped at
conclusions and that perhaps the lumber
companies had not had fair shake. In other
words, the conclusion to be drawn might be
that 1 had simply made an estimate of the
trespass. That is a mistake; put in thirty
two days driving through the Leech Lake and
Chippewa districts, and l scaled every foot
of green timber cut in those districts My
work was accurate, and the lumbermen got
just what was coming to them, no more. no
less.
1t was my original purpose to make the
same rigid scale at White Earth and Red
Lake, instead of which I accepted Mr. Sulli-
vans scale, the accuracy OF which had no
reason to doubt
Now, since there seems to be a disposition
on the part Of certain companies to doubt my
desire for a settlement on the right basis I
think it will be most satisfactory for all par
ties concerned If take trip through White
Earth and Red Lake-just to confirm Super
intendent Sulliyan's scale.
Mr.. Farr says Inspector McComas has
only seen a small section of the White
Earth works and has not made a general
inspection of the cut there as reported
in Washington dispatch to 7 our
nal.
Superintendent Sullivan is to take In
dian Agent Sutherlands place at the
White Earth reservation.
Mr.. Farr says that the department is
well satisfied with the way trespassers
have been brought to time, though great
ly regretting the cutting of green timber.
