L. Fl. Jansen, a mining engineer of

copper properties in Mexico and one of
the most interesting mining men in the
west, is at the Hollenbeck.
Mr. Jansen was former resident of
California and much of the last thirty
years he has spent in Arizona and Mex
leo. He has been in several tight places
as result of the uprisings of the Yaoui
Indians and talked with DR.. Mccoy of
Chicago and the young mining engineer
Mckenzie two days before they were
murdered.
He says that he does not think the
Yaqui Indians are enemies of the Amerl-
cans but attributes their attempts to
kill them to a need of the guns and am
the Americans have.
THE sensational reports as to trouble
in Mexico over American immigration
are unfounded," said Mr.. Jansen.

a condition as today. 1t is doubtful

tanning gold bullion while the train was
standing in the Reading terminal last
night William 4. Hewett. who gives his
address as 81, West 18th street. New

further hearing. The train had been
made up and was scheduled to leave at
$40 pm. via the Reading railway and
cars contained 100000 in gold bullion,
which was being shipped by the govern
nent to Buffalo.
The alleged attempt at robbery was dis
covered by accident. y yardman while at
work on a track adjoining the one on
which the express train stood heard a
peculiar grating noise. and in investigat-
ing discovered Hewett under the bullion
car at work with Il saw on a gas pipe
The yardman gave the alarm and Hewett
was pursued through the station. He was
caught before he could escape in the
crowd of Christmas shoppers on the
street and taken to the central police
station.
About the same time Hewett was dis
covered the lights in the car went out,
and an examination of the gas pipe
showed that it had been punctured.
At the hearing today the police eXhib-
tied the saw left behind by HeWett in
his fight and "A section of the gas pipe
The police say they are working on the
theory that Hewett probably expected to
enter the car after he had eXtingushed
the lights and loot it unobserved.
Hewett is believed to have been assisted
by accomplices. and the police are look
ing for two other men. Hewetts bail
was fixed at 5000
While the police believe Hewett was ac
companied by two companions, he insists
that he was alone. Hewett, who is tWen-
ty-one years old. gives the impression of
a man of education and rehnment and
had adopted desperate methods to secure
funds He was unarmed when searched
and had but Is cents in his clothing The

the billiard room of local hotel and
worked at the Somerset Club in Boston.
From the latter city Hewett went to

says. and walked the streets all of the
night of Tuesday. The police endeavored
to secure a confession from the prisoner,
but failed.
