Wallace n. Hopkins Arrested
at Seattle This Morning
on Old Charge
was lIWnG WITH an OLO
TINE FRIEND BUT unknown
O.. NJ. Erickson Purchased Property
From Him and Though Both We're
From Larimorc, Did Not Recognize
Hopkins Until After His Arrest.

HOPKINS, VINO lot 0Vo years was Cn1eI
dispatcher of the Dakota division of
the Great Northern, when the head
quarters were at Larilnore, N. D., and
who recently created big sensation
by absconding, after trying to float a
20,O00,000 corporation in Chicago,
known as the Consolidated Zinc COM
pany. was today captured at Seattle,
at the HenssngtoE house, a hotel own
ed by o. N. Erickson, formerly a
Larinlore, N, D. man.
Hopkins went to Mr.. Erickson, the
Larimore man, whom he knew and
passed under the ZANE of Guenther.
He was working as n broker and made
the deal whereby Mr.. Erickson bought
the hotel, which he, Hopkins, after
wards stopped at Mr.. Erickson did
not recognize Hopkins as the former
Laririore, N. D., man until after the
arrest was made. although they had
been together much ond had chatted
often about people in Larimore. Hop
kins passed as Mr.. Guenther success
fully, although Mr.. Erickson now says
that he thought he looked familiar,
still he never dreamed he was Hop
kins.
Mr.. Guenther spoke often, accord
ing to Mr.. Erickson Of how he had
moved in the highest society in Grand
Forks, never once referring to the
fact Of his formerly heing dispatcher,
but rather said he was q realty deal
er. Mr. Erickson knew we'll all the
dispalchers of tic Dakota division and
had been said OF the fraudulent work

have been detected at once.
Fast life in Chicago, fair women up
on whom he is said to have squan-
dered hundreds of dollars and the
com lany he was trying to float, prov
ed his financial undoine Embezzling
and fraudulent use of the mails are
charges brought against the former
dispatcher. It Is estimated that the
liabilities of the broker range from
$3.50. GOO to 100000 with hundreds of
creditors left in the lurch. Many of
these were friends in the Wesley M.
E. church i'll Milwaukee. Henry Ed
.er paid the broker St. .15G for stock he
never got All the assets the man
left behind him after leaving Chicago
was glass case of zinc ore which
was left in his Offices in the Ashland
block.
Wo,aen possessed great attraction
for the mining lroker, according to
those who know him best and at least
five Of them were in the habit of
drawing weekly sums from his Office.
These payments ranged all the way
from 5000 to 5000 week, it is stated
and did not include other sums spent
for wine surpers and automobile rides
and Z trip to New York where $1,000
was spent within week in an effort
to put up good front"
With a suite Of rooms at the Him
ois Athletic club that cost $95 week,
not including drinks, weekly pay
roll Of 5000 a week and various other
expenses. including 5000 month for
the support of his wife with whom he
has not lived for several years, 1t
was not difficult to see where large
sums of investors money went.

TROUBLE BREWING
Tennessee Night Riders Must Face 9
Court OF Justice

Memphis, Tenn. Oct. 26-What may
happen this-week as . result of the In
vestiyation of night rider depreda-
tions in the northwestern section of
this state, is matter of conjecture.
Tomorrow with the convening of the
circuit court for Ohio county in spe-
cial session at Union City, to formal
ly investigate the death of Quinten
Rankin, who was killed by night
rider band In the vicinity Of Reelfoot
lake Monday night last, that section
will be under the complete domination
of military rule. Five companies of
the state national guard will be at the
disposal Of Col Tatom, the military
commander and to aid the militia, the
adjoining counties rave been drawn
on for posses of picked men. Should
this force be insdecuate, 1t is declar-
ed that the entire military force of
the state will be concentrated.
In the Reelfoot Like district the
lake itself is the source Of contention
which brought forth the activity Of
the so called night rider organization.
1t WAS contended by those living in
the vicinity that it was their right to
ply their vocation as fishermen in its
waters without molestation, while the
owners of the land upon which the
lake Is situated, took an opposite view.
In the courts tho latter, the Western
Tennessee Land company: of which
Captain Rankin and Col. R. q. Taylor
of Trenton, were the organizers and
are .argely interest, were upheld.
Then followed night rider warn
ings, threatening death to those who
opposed the wishes of the members
of the band. 1t was upon the first
visit in many months to the lake re-
that Captain Rankin was killed. Not
withstanding the efforts of the local
authorities, the depredattons continued
during the past year, the situation be-
came more and more serious until,
with the killing Of Captain Rankin, it
was proven necessary for the state
author. .ties to ac!.
Governors Of several states of the
south have approved Of suggestion
of Governor Patterson, that confer
ence Of the executives of the different
states be held ard plans devised
whereby they can act in concert in an
effort to locally ccstroy the night
rider organization. Governor Noel of
Mississippi, Governor Pindall of Ark
ansas and Governor Wilson of Ken
lucky have already expressed them
selves in approval Of the proposed
conference. Practically all of the
southern states nave suffered to a
more or less extent from the opera
tions CT the mysterious organizations

LESS ALCOHOL
Califc,nia Wine Producers Want te
Furnish Patent Medicine Basis

Washington, Oct. 26-The internal
revenue bureau is strongly opposed to
the contention Of the California grape
growers for reversa; of the commits
sioners' ruling of March Is, 1908,
which inhibits the use OF fortified
American sweet wines in the manu-
facture of patent or proprietary medi-
cines or compounds. To do so, in the
opinion Of the officials, would be to
violate the law ard to deprive the
government of many millions in rev.
enue annually.
Commissioner Carers has received
a lette: from Senator Perkins of Cali
fornia advocating the reversal and
transmitting copy of a resolution re-
Gently adopted by the manufacturers
and producers association of Califor-
mia and the traus-Mississippi com
merc:M! congress of San Francisco,
which also urged the reversal of the
Objectionable ruling. In the course
of his reply the commissioner says:
From the Information that has
been gathered in the execution Of the
sweet wine law, Il is known that Inn
mense quantities Of materials called
sweet wine, but totally unfit for bev-
erage purposes, have been presented
for fortification. This law grade pro-
duct is understood to be the article
most demanded by and furnished to
manufacturers of medicinal COM

the part of this Office and the conclu-
sion was reached that the use OF for
