German scholars are beginning to give
unusual attention to American intellec.
tual progress. Professor Wetz Of Frei-
burg University. comparing tho scenti-
6c developement Of Germany and tho
United States. says the real American
danger exists in intellectual rather than
economic things. The foremost Ameri-
can universities, he points out are now
better equipped than the German uui-
versities for comprehensive training,
and the munifcent gifts from private
individuals for libraries, museums, lab
oratories and profesuorships supply
the American professors with facilities
for instruction superior to those Of
their German colleagues, Therefore
Germany is in dangnr OF being sur
passed by the United Staten in intel.
lectual development.

Letters From Beller to Miss
Hill Said to be Threatening.
STATE WILL ARREST MAN
United States Marshal HeaIy Refused
to Arrest Beller Without Original
Letters-Authoritie Are Gathering
Evidence to substantiate Accusation.

Cedar Rapids, Dec. 30.-Fresh evil
dence in the sensational case against
Or. o. Beller of Vinton, who is under
arrest On the charge of attempting to
kill his sweetheart Miss Hli., of Vim
ton, if she married later sutton, has
come to light. The evidence is in the
shape of unprintable letters, copies of
two of which have been sent to the Of
fee of United States Marshal Healy
in this city. In one of the letters DR..
Beller threatens Miss Hill that if she
dares to marry DR.. Park the writer
will ruin her reputation. 1t is said
that these are only two of great mum.
Der of letters. many of which are even
worse in character, and finally it is
stated that the officials are in posses
sion of one letter-written just before
the marriage of Miss Hill-stating
that if she dares to marry DR.. Park
the writer will kill her and himself.
These letters, however. have not been
made public, though Marshal Healy
has been made acquainted with their
contents. 1t was the plan of Sheriff
Youel and County Attorney Kirkland
to have the first arrest made by the
federal officials, and an information
was filed, charging DR.. Boiler with a
violation of the statutes regarding the
mailing of indecent and threatening
matter. But the officials sent copies
Of the letters and not the original eyi
dence and it is learned here that Mar
shall Healy declined to make the ar
rest unless he had The original letters
| in his possession. He acquainted the
Benton county officials with this fact
and they, therefore. have apparently
decided to arrest the doctor on the
state charges first.
Many of the letters which were sem
to Miss Hill were typewriter, and Il
is stated that an effort is being made
to determine whether the actual send
er of the letters wrote them upon the
typewriter himself, or whether he EN-
ployed typewritist.

Rumored That Burlington Passenger
Will Leave Chicago Earlier.
1t is rumored that new time card
will go into effect on the Burlington
January IL, which will change the
time of The departure of train No. 8
from Chicago to 1890 p. M, instead
Of IL o'clock, its present time of de-
parture.
BY this chsnge the road will be rid
of the necessity of running one passen-
ger train. At present passenger
train, No.a17, leaves Chicago at 80
p. m. and arrives at Galesburg at 3:42
a. m. From Galesburg it runs by the
way of Quincy to Kansas City. The
new time card will do away with this
train, or rather will consolidate il
with No. 8. Although the details OF
the new arrangements have not YET
been given out, it is probable No. 8
will be divided at Galesburg, or GER
tain cars set out there which will con
tinue on to Quincy and Kansas City
while the regular train comes or
through Ottumwa, arriving here and
departing for the west about the pres
ent time.
