CAPTURE MAN BELIEVED
TO Be ESCAPED LEPER
Greek Under Arrest Denies He
Ran Away from Quarantine
at Salt Lake

NEW YORK, Sept. PA man be-
lieved to be John Kokas, the Greek
leper of Salt Lake City who broke
quarantine there, evaded interception
in Chicago and escaped eastward, was
arrested here today as he was about
to buy a ticket for Greece. a
The man gave his name as Peter
Coropulas of Salt Lake City, 80 years
old, and denied vigorously that he was
a leper. He was taken to a city hos
pital to be held for examination by DR..
L. Norman Buckley, a specialist in
skin diseases. The mans appearance
was hideous, and in a preliminary ex-
animation the hospital authorities say
they believe he is leper. He would
not tell where he slept last night, but
said he had arrived here yesterday,
which would just about account for
the time Kokas would have taken to
get here from Chicago.
II know 1 am not a leper," said the
man, but I don't know what is the
matter with me, and none of the doc
tors l have asked in the year and
half I have worked in the west have
been able to tell me-"

TOWN IS THREATENED
BY WASHINGTON FIRES
Many Houses and Lumber Mills
Endangered by Flames

BEIaLINGHAM, Wash, Sept. 12.-
Forest fires are threatening hundreds
of mills and private residences in this
part of the state today. A strong wind
from the northwest famed the smol-
dering sparks in stumps and logs yes
terday and today. The town of Lyn-
don, near the boundary line, is in
imminent danger. Three homes on the
outskirts of the city have been de-
stroyed and call for help has been
sent to Bellingham to save the town.
This morning two big bridges on the
Guide Meridian road, the main road
of the county, were burned and traffic
is blocked.
Yesterday afternoon the mill plant
of the Baker Creek Mill company, on
the Guide Meridian road, was totally
destroyed, with all the surrounding
buildings Fires are burning on the

NEW PlNCH0T-BALLINGER
REPORT TO BE PREPARED
Regular Republican investigators
Await Roots Arrival

CHICAGO, Sept 12.-The regular
Republican section of the Ballinger-
.Pinchot investigation committee will
number six persons when it meets here
tomorrow, If Senator Root arrives, as
Is expected
Those here today are Senator Suth-
erland of Utah, Congressman Olmstead
of Pennsylvania, Congressman DENLY
of Michigan and Congressman Mccall
of Massachusetts. Senator Nelson OF
Minnesota, chairman of the committee,
who called today's session, will arrive
tomorrow.
These committeeman hold that the
report made public in Minneapolis by
four Democrats and one progressive
Republican is irregular. 1t was
adopted, they declare, without a
quorum.
The Democrats and their insurgent
ally, Congressman Madison of Kansas,
declared at Minneapolis that Chairman
Nelson had no right to call another
meeting at Chicago and stated that
they would not attend. This makes
1t certain that congress will be pre-
sented with two distinct reports on the
controversy.

THAYER SAYS FREIGHT
RATES ARE REASONABLE
Official of Pennsylvania Road
Gives Testimony Before Inter-
state Commerce Body

NEW YORK, Sept. 12-John j.
Thayer, third vice president of the
Pennsylvania railroad. today told the
interstate commerce commission which
is inquiring into the question of in
creased freight tariffs by the east
ern roads that the rates between the
east and west had been for years too
low, and that the tariffs should have
been raised in 1908. The adjustment
was delayed until the business depres-
sion had passed. the witness said.
Mr.. Thayer said that passenger
rates were not compensatory for the
service rendered, but that the public,
through it's legislatures, would not
stand for an advance in through pas
senger rates. He said that rates on
through traffic had been too low in
comparison with local rates.
DIFFERENCES IN SCHEDULES
Considering the matter of freight
tariffs, Mr.. Thayer said:
"a car of first-class freight from
New York or Boston, 100 miles, to
Chicago would bring just SO. car
of steel from PittSburg to New YORK,
less than half the distance, loaded and
unloaded for use, brings twice the
revenue.
"On everything from Boston to Chi
cago we only get 90 cents hundred
and have to pay the New Haven rail-
road 26 per cent of it for bringing 1t
to Jersey City"
Mr.. Thayer said In conclusion:
"While the estimated increase of this
advance on lines east of Pittsburg is
$4,000, 900, which is a large sum, it
must be remembered, as far as the
Pennsylvania railroad is concerned,
that we deal with very large and huge
figures, and after all that the amount
only represented 2.3 per cent of our
gross earnings from freight traffic
and 1.6 per cent of our total gross
earnings from all sources, so that 1t
is not a large standard advance in
our opinion, but a mere adjustment of
rates to bring us portion of the rev.
enue we must have in order to meet
demands now made on US"

FIGHT
AND ROB AUT0ISTs

and Watches Near Pough-
keepsie, N. Y.
Associated Pressl

POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y, Sept. 12.-
Three belated automobilists hurrying
into Poughkeepsie at forty-mile-a
hour-gait, j, in big touring car, were
halted at lonely spot on the new
state road near Rhinebeck early this
morning by the swinging of pair of
red lanterns.
AS their machine stopped the Ian
terms went out and two masked men
hurried to the step of the car There
was one on each side of the machine,
and each carried a gun.
Get out here while we search you,
said one of the men as he swung open
the door of the car. The AUTOMOBILE
of the two revolvers covered their
every movement.
COLLECTS COIN AND WATCHES
"Up with yol hands-and no fool
ing" was the next command. Then,
while one of the highwaymen stood
on the seat of the car, the other
searched a score or so of pockets. He
took out a bandana handkerchief and
carefully tied up in it S175 in cash,
three watches worth $400 and some ne
gotiable paper, the value of which is
not stated.
AS the highwayman stepped back to
allow his victims to return to the car,
one of the trio, ]. W. Towsley of New
York, STOPPED quickly. picked up
huge rock and sprang upon the masked
man. The second highwayman, afraid
to fire at Towsley for fear of injuring
his companion rushed to the rescue,
shooting twice into the air as he came.
He pulled ToWSley away, hurting him
sprawling toward the car, which the
other automobilists were just entering
Theh he grabbed his companion and
the two disappeared in the darkness.
SHERIFFS BEGIN PURSUIT
The automobilists made record time
to Rhinebeck and from there tele-
phoned the authorities in Poughkeep-
sic and neighboring towns. Deputy
sheriffs were at once sent out in pur-
suit of the highwaymen.
Nearly a score of automobile holdups
have occurred in this neighborhood
during the last few weeks.

START MOVEMENT TO STOP
BURYING BODIES AT SEA
Catholic Society Adopts ResoIu-
ton Against the Custom

PHILADELPHIA, Sept, ia move
ment has been started here to have
steamship companies discontinue the
practice of burying at sea the bodies
of persons who died on shipboard. The
Rev. William Mclaughlin, a promi-
nent clergyman of this city, died at sea
last week and Notwithstanding that a
wireless message had been sent to the
captain of the liner requesting that the
body be landed, 1t was consigned to the
waves.
The Holy Name society of the Ro-
man Catholic church of Our Lady of
Mercy adopted resolutions yesterday
protesting against the custom. The so
ciety authorized several clergymen to
correspond with steamship companies
with a view of ascertaining the opin-
ions of the officers on the subject. 1t
is understood that leading steamship
companies already have this subject
under consideration.
