JUDGE REID IS BACK.
Tells What Might Be Done with Mis-
sissippi After Studying Water
ways of Europe.

LA CROSSE, Wis, Jan. 7.-[Spe-
cial. Judge r. S. Reid, waterways
commissioner of the state of Wisconsin.
who was sent abroad last summer with
the object of studying methods of i'm
provement of European waterways with
reference to possible application of these
plans to American rivers, returned today
after four months spent on the rivers
the canals of Germany, Austria, France,
and England.
II am satisfied" said Judge Reid to-
day, that the Mississippi river if i'm
proved between tidewater and st. Paul
is capable of carrying ten times the
traffic of all the Manageable rivers of the
countries visited. | spent eighteen days
on the Elbe, eighteen ON the Seine and
five on the Rhone and Saone l do not
deprecate the value of German water
ways which are used to their full capac-
ity. If the Mississippi river was used
in the same manner as the modern use
of the German rivers, it could easily car
ry all the freight produced in the Mis-
sissippi valley and at very low cost.
Regarding the chain method of trans
portation used in Germany, every au-
thority seen stated that wher it could be
used it was very economical, as it did
not require more than a third or quarter
as much power as the regular method.
The Mississippi river is in proper condi-
ton for the use of this system if it is
ever deemed advisable to test it in this
country.'

ROB A TRAIN IN DEPOT.
Four Men Hold UP Passengers on Katy
in Kansas City-Escape, but
with No Booty.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Jan. -Four
men attempted to rob the passengers on
a Missouri, Kansas & Texas passenger
train standing in the union station here
early today They We're frightened Oil
without securing any money or vaiuaoles'
The men escaped leaving no clue
The train is what is known as the
Flyer. due to depart at 2:2O for the south
west. Shortly before starting time the
would-be robbers entered one of the for
ward day coaches and walked up and
down the aisle, awaiting favorable op-
portunity to commence their work. The
station, aside from this one train was
practically deserted, and this fact is be-
lieved to have prompted the men to make
so bold an attempt.
DR.. NJ. H Kennedy, of Kansas City,
a. passenger in the coach, said: BE
fore any of us realized what they were
up to. two of the robbers showed reyol-
vers and pointing them at some foreign
ers commanded them to give up their
valuables. Just then H. w. Drew. the
conductor, and David White the negro
porter came into the car. Drew hit one
of the robbers on the head, with his Ian
tern and smashed it into pieces. Then
they ran. None of them wore mask.
The police have a good description of the
men.

DR.. PETERS SUES AGAIN.
Former African Governor, Accused of
Grave Misdoings, Demands Dam
ages from Cologne Gazette.

COLOGNE, Germany, Jan. DIR.
Carl Peters, who was at one time gov
ernor of German East Africa and who
is known as an African explorer, has
begun an action for libel against the
chief editor and the Berlin correspondent
of the Cologne Gazette.
The first hearing of the case occurred
today. DR.. Peters claims damages for
the publication of a statement that he
sent letter to an English bishop in
which he confessed to having executed s.
negress in Africa because of her sexual
misdoings. An enormous number of
witnesses have been called, and it is
expected that the whole scandal in con-
nection with DR.. Peters governorship of
East Africa will be gone over again.
DR.. Peters recently sued the Muench-
ener Post for libel in accusing him of
cruelty to the natives when he was
governor of German East Africa in
1891. The editor of the paper was fined
S125 and costs.

AUGUSTUS HEINZE
IS UNDER ARREST
MILLIONAIRE COPPER KING is
CHARGED WITH HAVING LILLE
GALLY CERTIFIED A CHECK.
BAIL is PLACED AT $4,000
Prosecution of Plunger Result of Inves-
tigation of Affairs OF Mercan-
tile National Bank.
IS ECHO OF PANIC IN OCTOBER.

NEW YORK, Jan. IF. Augustus
Heinze was arrested today by United
States marshall on an indictment charg-
ing him with having illegally certified a
check on the Mercantile National bank.
He was held in $4,000 bail after enter
ing plea of not guilty to the indict-
ment.
The amount of the check which Heinze
is accused of having certified falsely was
S62, 76S. Heinze appeared in court with
counsel and announced that bail would
be furnished Immediately.
Heinze's Banking Connections.
Heinze. who has had remarkable
career as mining engineer, promoter of
various mining companies, especially
those developing copper properties, and
within the last year or two as a fnan-
cier, was president of the Mercantile
National bank until October last. At
that time there We're heavy Withdrawals
from the bank. due to a rapid decline in
stock of the United Copper company, in
which Heinze was heavily interested.
Resigns from Presidency.
Heinze resigned from the presidency
of the bank. Charles j. Morse, the ship
with Heinze in various enterprises, re
tired from the active management of
several banks which he controlled and
it was the great unrest precipitated by
these changes that brought about a cul-
mination of the city's financial troubles
generally and the panic which was in
full sway in the latter days of October.
Rumors of Prosecution.
1t has been reported ever since
Heinzes retirement from the Mercan-
tile that the federal government was
making a rigid investigation of the af-
fairs of that bank and others with a
view to the prosecution of the persons
responsible for any unlawful act that
might be discovered.
Other Charges Made.
Heinze is also accused of illegal GER
LITIGATION of other checks amounting to
100000 on or about October IA, accord
ing to his counsel Edward Lauterbach
Mr. Lauterbach said that abundant col
lateral had been deposited to cover these
checks. Many of the checks were pay
able to the order of Otto Heinze d Co..
of which firm r. Augustus Heinze's
brother is member.

OLDROCKEFELLERD DEAD
New York Reporter Believes Oil Mans
Father Expired in Madison and
Is Buried in Trempealeau.

MADISON, Wis, Jan. I'll Especial
That William Rockefeller, Sir, father
of the Standard Oil king, died in Madi-
son in July, 1906, and was buried at
Blair, Trempealeau county, is the as
founding report that came to several
persons in this city today.
This assertion was made as a result
of a visit yesterday of a New York
World reporter in quest of information
as to the old mans death. Among those
with whom he consulted were Health
Officer J. p. Donovan, registrar of vital
statistics, and Undertaken Otto Schroe-
der Neither of these men was able to
give the information desired. 1t was
said that the elder Rockefeller went I'M
der the name of DR.. Gardner.
The New York correspondent did not
give his name and divulged little of the
character of his mission. 1t is said Mr..
Rockefeller settled in Iowa and was a
we'll known character there. An Iowa
man told the reporter that lit was his
belief that William Rockefeller, ST.,
came to Wisconsin and died in a ''city
by the side of the lakes" This city is
believed to have been Madison. The re-
porter has left here for Blair.
