HOW MUCH is A
MANS LIFE WORTH
sPREckeLs DIDN'T WISH TO PAY
$1,000 FOR HIS.
Now There's Going to Be Law Suit
and Already Much Talk Has
Resulted.

Berlin, March ga dispute be-
tween the American millionaire. Ru-
dolph Spreckles, of San Francisco,
and a distinguished Austrian physi-
clan, DR.. Edgar Cans, which attracted
much public attention both in Europe
and America and had been submitted
to the Austrian civil court at Eyer, is
now approaching its conclusion.
Mr.. Spreckles was staying at Karls-
bad in the summer of 1904 and con-
suited DR.. Cans regarding an internal
complaint from which he was suffer-
ing. DR.. Cans after diagnosing the
case, pronounced it to be appended
tbs and declared that an operation was
necessary.
The great German physician, Prof.
Sonneberg, of Berlin, was summoned
to Karlsbad for consultation and at
once confirmed the opinion of the case
given by DR.. Cans. Before the opera
tion was performed a legal written
agreement was drawn UP between Mr..
Spreckles and Prof. Sonneberg fixing
the fee for the operation at $4,000, ID
addition to S1.250 for Prof. Sonne-
berg's assistant and staff Of nurses.
Prof. Sonneberg performed the oper-
alton successfully and received the
stipulated fee. DR.. Cans continued to
attend Mr.. Spreckles, who required
medical advice for some weeks after
the operation. When Mr., Spreckles
asked DIR. Cans to name his fee, Dr.
Cans suggested the sum of $4,000
Mr.. Spreckles attempted to leave
Karlsbad without paying any fee
whatever to DR.. Cans. The case was
given to a lawyer who obtained a
summary order from the local court,
empowering him to detain the person.
al belongings of Mr.. Spreckles as Sc
curity for the amount claimed by DIR.
Cans. Mr.. Spreckles facing the un-
pleasant possibility of having his lug
gage seized, deposited the full amount
of $4,000 with the local authorities and
at the same time indicated his inten-
tion Of contesting the physicians legal
right to charge him this amount.
In view of the emphatic assertions
made by several distinguished physi-
clans that DR.. Cans saved the life of
Mr.. Spreckles, the question was rails
ed whether medical man is not justi-
fed in charging more for saving the
life of millionaire than for saving
the life of a pauper. Some adverse
comment has been caused in the Euro
pean press by the fact that Mr.. Spreck-
les pretends to value his own life at
less than $4,000.

CANT0N-TUSCARAWAS
Brewery Stock In Good Demand.
Looking for a Boom.

Cleveland Plain Dealer:-The first
buying If Stark-Tuscarawas Breweries
Company was a good deal similar to
that in Hoster-Columbus Associated
Breweries Company. There are those
who trade on the curb who are look
ing for similar outburst in Stark
as appeared in Hoster. The mem.
bers of the Stock Exchange are hope.
full that such will be the case. since
the transference of this activity to
the floor of the exchange will add
to the trading there. While the first
indications are in that direction it
is hardly to be hoped that the buying
will be so heavy. In the first place
there is not enoughof the speculation
behind It, Dayton breweries did not
produce an outburst at the start be-
cause there was not the local buying
element which there was in Colum-
bus. The latter place Is peculiarly
situated. 1t has an abundance of
money for investment and only few
stocks. In addition it has never gone
outside it's own bailiwick looking for
nipped. That caused buying of Hos
ter. The Canton, Massillon and New
Philadelphia crowds are in good con-
dition financially, but they have not
a plethora of money. Many of their
buyers have been in the broader mar
ket, and understand the relative value
Of stocks. They are little too close
to Cleveland to pay very high prices
for a security when perhaps better
stocks are selling for less. The
earnings of Stark-Tuscarawas COM
pare very favorably with the other
brewing companies. All of them have
been taken over at a price which
would net 6 per cent on each issue.
It has to Offset it's smaller territory
the fact that 1t owns it's saloon leases,
which is a new and valuable asset.
It is promising, therefore, but not
what might be called brisk trader,
as some of the others have been. In
addition the buying in brewing COM
panies has been very keen, and has
had a long run. 1t might hardly
be expected to continue indefinitely.
The stock. however, is in good de-
mand, and for the limited supply
which will come into Cleveland there
Is likely to be a good demand, which
probably accounts for the good prices
which were paid for the stock at the
start.

The Coconino sun., 1905-12-23

All honor to Miss Lizzie Rust, the young lady who braved the torrent of the Yaqui river to save an infant which had been over ooked and abandoned by its par parents in their mad flight for safety. To swim horse through swollen mountain stream is a feat which we'll might try the cour- age of the bravest, and of all the men present not one was stout hearted enough to attempt it. But this young woman, forgetting self, and unmindful of all danger in her great sympathy and love for the unfortunate child, risked this dan ger and accomplished the rescue. By her noble deed Miss Rust has shed fresh luster on womanhood the world is better for it.
