the age of sixty on a charge of arson
in the first degree.
He is best known as Charles Will

said to be his real name. Posing as
a retired banker-he was posing as an
acive banker when, in 1873, he flood

at New Hamburg, Duchess county,
agreeing to pay $4,000 for it. He

CRANK VISITS

Chilian Inventor Demands an Inter.

Drew Revolver on the Detectives Who
Went to His Hotel to Arrest Him
Interesting Story the Man Tells.
Daffy Over Invention. Its

/ #@ -
Washington. Jerman Kehl, an in
sane Chilian and the most, danger.
Gus "White House crank" yet cap
tured here, was arrested "a few
nights ago. He has been in the city
over a month, but attention was not
attracted to him until Wednesday
night when he carried a letter to the
White House. In this he demanded
an interview with President Roose-
velt and threatened his life if his
demands were not granted, saying
You viii be sorry if you do not
see me, for will find you and will
get you and kill you"
This note was delivered in person
at the White House office by the in
sane man, and he rambled about the
grounds and building for some time.
The letter was turnd over to the Sc
cret service men and late this even
ing Agent Tyre and other detectives
located Kehl at the Engel Hotel.
He was not there when they called
but they waited and when he came in
he was put under arrest. He made a
desperate attempt to draw a revolv-
er from his hip pocket to shoot the
detectives, who were searching him.
His arm was seized and the revolver
secured. A pair of brass knuckles
were found in another pocket.
Kehl, according to his own story,
was in the hardware business in Con-
cepcion, Chill, until eight years ago.
Then he sold out the business and took
up the study of invention, with the
object, he said, of inventing a float
ing propeller. This evidently turn
ed his mind. He left Conception in
October for Washington, arriving in
Baltimore on Nov. 16, and coming
to this city three days later. During
the whole time of his stay here he
occupied room at the Engle Hotel.
Kehl's particular delusion was about
the ideal ship, gneral barge and
swimming propeller" which figures
as the principal one of his forty in
ventions. His object in coming to
Washington, he declared, was to get
PTsSiadepFft FfyR Rp0SaElitO 6f tie govarh @
ment for his patents, and also to
form series of stock companies for
the manufacturing of his inventions.
When arrested he carried copy of
his letter to the president. In it
he outlined each of his imaginary in
and closed with the demand
that an early appointment be made
for an interview.
