BOND OF CHARLES KRAFT
MAY BE SETTLED TO-DAY.
Gottlieb Eyermann, Through . Trust
Company, Will Pay 100000 for
Fugitive Boodler.

The forfeited bond Of Charles Kratz. the
fugitive ex-member Of the City Council. who
is now at Guadalajera, Mexico, probably
will be paid to Circuit Attorney Folk to-
day by Attorney Theodore Rassieur, coun-
sci for Gottlieb Eyermann, who is surety
on the bond.
The amount Of tho bond IL 10000, but.
with costs. will amount to several hundred
dollars more.
When Kratz was frst arrested in connec-
ton with the Suburban Railway Doodle
scandal his bond was fixed at 5000. Upon
the request OF Circuit Attorney Folk the
bond was increased to $4,000. Gottlieb Ely
ermann, member Of a prominent firm OF
contractors, signed the bond.
After kratz ran away Eyermann refused
to pay the bond, citing some technicality in
the proceedings Judge Ryan decided
against him. He then appealed the case to
the Supreme Court. The American Central
Trust Company gave bond in the sum of
$4,000 for Eyermann on the appeal The
Supreme Court decided that Eyermann
should pay the bond several weeks ago. The
mandate arrived yesterday from Jefferson
City.
Former City Counselor Schumacher.
who is attorney for the American Central
Trust Company, yesterday notified Mr.. Folk
that the trust company was ready to settle
the bond. and that Mr.. Rassieur would give
him check for the amount to-day.

Steamers Running Out Of st. Louis
Have All the Freight They
Can Garry.
TRAFFIC is OPENED EARLY.
High Water Makes Heavy Cargoes
Possible and Railroads Are Be
ing Assisted in Removal
of Grain.

Packet companies at present are unable
to handle the goods daily being offered for
transportation, the boats leaving the wharf
being loaded with hundreds of tons Of car
go over the amounts usually carried.
Railroads at present are experiencing q
great shortage Of cars. The commerce Of
the country, 1t is thought, Is growing 80
fast that the waterways are again being
pressed into service to transport goods.
BONUS OVER RAILROAD RATES.
Lines running out Of St Louis last year
were REINFORCED by one or more steamers
and then found that they had all they could
do. So remarkable has been the demand
for river transportation this spring that an
excursion steamer has been pressed into
service to remove large shipment of
ing loaded at p. p. Williams's elevator
Fifteen hundred tons of grain will be its
cargo and yicksburg. Miss. its destination:
OF all the railroads running out OF East
st. Louis none could at present find cars
enough to take the shipment. Rtvermen as
sert that the owners of the Hill City took
than the railroad schedule.
Besides having, plenty Of goods to carry
the packet lines have been favored with an
early opening of river traffic.
The Peters Lee. one of the Lee Line
steamers from Memphis, left the St Louis
harbor with a cargo on February b. Often
the first trip is not made until a month
later.
Captain D. NJ Connors. business manager
prospect Of river business in the future.
1T has been picking up for two years" said
he, land more so than ever this spring.
We put ON an extra steamer before the
season closed last year and 1t is probable
that IL the trade keeps on increasing the
way 1t has been the last couple of weeks
We will have to put on another.
EVERY BOAT HAS BIG LOAD.
Every boat leaving the harbor at pres
ent Is loaded to the guards. II it were NOT
for the fact that We have very high water
at present We could not carry as much
goods as we have been carrying. So great
has been the trade from the South this
spring that it has encouraged us to de-
liver goods as far South as Vicksburg and
Greenville, Miss, and even to Lake Provi-
dence. La. which towns were abandoned
lons ago by our company"
John f. Massengale, traffic manager Of the
St. Louis and Tennessee River Packet COM
pany, said:
I'VE can't deny that the river trade IS
again in very prosperous way. Last year
We added two steamers to our line, the
City of Savannah and the Shiloh, and now
we have all we can do to attend to the
traffic offered US. The City of Savannah
departed Wednesday with 1000 tons aboard
for the South. An average load in the past
has been 80 tons. This will give an idea OF
the increase in river transportation this
spring. We have six steamers running out
of St Louis. and have all we can attend
to-"
