MORGAN is KING
OF MONEY TRUST
COMBINATION OF CAPITAL HAS
HAS FIRM GRIP ON GOVERN
MENT AND BUSINESS.
VIII BE Able to bring on Panic At

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Dec. ga New
York special dispatch says: So close
have become the alliances OF lead
ing financial interests In Wall street
during the last three months that
almost absolute control of the coun-
try's financial affairs is now cen
tralized In the hands of very few
men, who are acting in concert.
A money trust has come into ex-
istence with J. p. Morgan at its head,
the most gigantic combination Of cap
ital in the world. There is no con-
crete, definite organization, no elect
ed directors, no list of stockholders.
To use descriptive phrase of the
financial world. it is simply a com
munity of interest"
Assets Of three insurance COM
panies alone controlled by the group
aggregate considerably more than
$1,OOO,OOO.OOO.
Power Is Tremendous.
Here are some of the things the
trust could do:
1t could call $500, 900, 900 of loans
over night and ruin an adversary.
1t could reduce credits to such a
degree as to cause extreme money
stringency and great commercial dis
trust.
1t could tie up cash holdings OF
New York banks by demanding GER
tIflcatIon of checks for enormous
amounts.
1t could deplete bank reserves In
New York by causing shipments OF
cash to any part of the country.
It could make the money rate OF
interest almost what it chose, from
per cent to 100 per cent on all call
loans.
1t could cripple financial operations
of the government by refusing t.
purchase any bond issue.
1t could dictate financial opera
lions of great railway systems ant
expanding industrial concerns.
1t could and does dictate terms anC
exactions Of every company promo
ton that is important enough to b.
financed in Wall street.

DR.. COOK FAILS TO

Danish Committee Found no Proof

COPENHAGEN. Denmark, Dec. 90.
That the committee investigating
the polar data submitted by DR..
Frederick A. Cook viii return a re-
port neither favoring nor adverse to
the claims Of the explorer, was the
prediction made today by members
OF the faculty Of the University Of
Copenhagen, who are cognizant Of
the deliberations OF the committee.
The sayants of the Danish university
who are serving on the committee are
said to be deeply embarrassed by
their former championship of DR..
Cook, coupled with their inability to
find anything approaching accurate
proofs in his reports, and are cast
ing about for way to retire grace
fully from the controversy. Rumors
have leaked from the committee
room that the dates submitted by the
explorer are so incomplete that
Cooks presence before the commit
tee would not aid its work and he
will not be asked to appear.

ALLEGED MUIR
DERER CAUGHT
Fred George is Charged With TAX
ing Life of Billings

AAN AAOeNO uuN1Nf0N VI the tate
John n. Billings. who was found
dead in the eastern part OF this city
some little time ago. has been found
and Sheriff Bailey ia now in Lewis
ton. this state. after his man. be
having been arrested there I week
ago on federal charge OF selling IIQ-
uor to Indians on the reservations.
The alleged murderer is Fred George.
alias Ralph Carlisle. young man
20 years OF age. and said to Be a
person bearing a reputation which
In the past has been anything but the
best.
Since the morning after the crime
the authorities In this city have had
clue and by their clever work fol-
lowed that clue until finally they
landed the man they were after.
On the back Of one Of the LETT
ters which was found on the person
OF Billings was written the name OF
Fred George with nothing else. and
from the moment the officers saw
that name It dawned upon them that
he was probably the man who murder
ed Billings, and they set 70 work with
that much OF a clue. and nothing
more. save the surroundings and
what little information the contents
Of the letters from the relatives con-
veyed.
The officers Of both city and coun-
ty have been on the alert and have
worked hard since the crime was
committed to and the criminal and
bring him to justice.
They took the name from the en-
velope and within q few hours found
that the man had been In the city
and had registered at the Inn hotel.
but had been here only during that
night and left for Spokane early In
the morning. They went to the lat
ter city and traced him TO the Car
nival company, where Billings had
been employed, and found that the
two men had been working there and
were friends. Billings was high
ly respected by all Of his compan-
ions. while George was quite the re-
verse. The authorities secured . pic
ture OF the latter and II Was largely
through this that he was captured,
notwithstanding that he was going
under an assumed name at Lewis
ton. While he was In Spokane he
stopped at the Palace hotel.
II has been learned that Billings
was brought to Occur d'Alene upon
pretended purchase OF a chicken
ranch located in the eastern part OF
the city. and II was IN that locality
that he was murdered This gives
evidence that he was iured to the
outskirts OF the city by the murderer
to give the latter chance to commit
the crime and secure some money.
as II Is believed Billings had between
s500 and $500 on his person Al the
time Of the crime. George will be
brought to this city rs soon ~ ar
rangements can oe made for his re-
lease from the federal charge made
against him.

THE FATHER OF WATERS"

President Taft, strcnuously engaged in discovering that boat will xeep afloat on the Father of Waters from the Eads bridge to the Eads jetties, will see little on the river to sug- gest those days. when every captain was singing in his heart "Gwine to beat de Sherlock down to New Obleaps." but he will see abundant scope for emptying many a pork bar rel before bringing back those good old days.
 Tn a large measure the Mississippi of today suggests a story that has been told. once it was the setting for one of the most picturesque phases in American life. Its boats were floating palaces and monsters of freight carry ing capacity, The glamour of that southern life "befoh de wah" hangs round them still, but there is little to recall the day when the river was the main artery of commerce for all the transalleghaney area, when the state rooms were boudoirs of ladies of fash ion, the cabins bowers of grace and beauty and the barrooms scenes of. such gambling and high life as has only been duplicated in the first days of San Francisco following the gold quest
 Tn these days cities like Cincinnati and St. Louis in the north. Memphis. Natchez and New Orleans in the south, were the great metropo- lises of wide areas of rich country then bursting with fecundity and flowing
