WAITER WHO ABDUCTED MISS
DFJANON MAY SOON GO FREE
Actress Adheres to Her Story She
Alone Was Responsible for
Running Away.
FAMILY TO AVOID NOTORIElY

Philadelphia, Jan. 2S.-The case OF
Ferdinand Cohen, the waiter who was
the companion OF Miss Roberta y. DE
Janon, the young heiress. in her SEN
sational flight from Philadelphia and
subsequent tour of the country. was
called in court today for a prelimin-
ary hearing. A charge of abduction
has been made against Cohen. but the
impression, is gaining ground that the
case will ultimately be dismissed and
the waiter allowed TO go free. As
Miss De Janon still adheres TO her
story that she alone was responsible
for the affair, il is believed that IL
would be difficult TO secure convic-
tion on a charge of abduction. which
is the only charge that can be made
against Cohen Moreover. IL is said
To be the desire of Robert Buist. the
millionaire seed merchant and grand
father OF Miss De Janon, TO avoid the
notoriety that trial would produce.
Miss De Janon. il is reported, win be
sent To private school and ar
rangements made for Cohen and his
family to make their future residence
elsewhere than in Philadelphia.

Paris. Jan. 2S-The Seine was still

Disaster followed disaster as the day

gushed out of the Tulleries entrance

situation I'm the neighborhood of the
french institute has become desperate
Todays papers are filled with pages ot
pitiful and terrifying details. War
would hardly play such havoc. Busi-
ness is almost ut a standstill and no
tells are crowded with persons who fled
from inundated homes. Prices are
necessarily advancing by leaps and
bounds.
The Rue st. Lazare was inundated
throughout its extent, the water hav
ing found its way up through the
subway. The roof of the subway un-
der the place de LOpera fell in dur
ing the night. The Isle st. Louis is
fast disappearing and unless condi-
tions change soon, will be submerged.
The devastation has now penetrated
the very heart of Paris, gorgng rivers
and sewers underneath literally blow
ing up streets. while the aiea Of sur
face overnowed by water has doubled
today. Quays on either side OF the
river from one end Of the city TO the
other are either inundated or have
been roped off as unsafe. The Es-
planade des Invalides is a sheet of wa
ter. The flood crept back almost to
Jardin Du Luxembourg on its left
bank. and invaded the Place De La
Concorde, which was closed and
guarded by soldiers, and the lower
Champs Elysee on the right bank. The
Palais De Glace and other pleasure
resorts are surrounded.

YOUNG GERMAN BAKER Is
ACCUSED OF MANY GRIMES
Ernest Wilhelm Lorenz Given Pre-
liminary Hearing in Provi-
dence Court.
FIENDISH MURDERS CHARGED

Providence, r. l., Jan. 2S.-If Ernest
Wilhe,m Lorenzo, young German
baker who was given a preliminary
hearing i'm court today on the charge
of having murdered Gilbert Mann three
weeks ago. is guilty of half the crimes
to which he confesses and others which
he is strongly suspected. he is certain
" the most diabolical iiend with which
the police of this city have ever had
to deal.
The murder Of Gilbert Mann, which
occurred in the town of Johnston on
January s, is the first crime for which
Lorenz is to be tried. Mann, who was
an old soldier. was waylaid and NOR
tally shot and a companion who was
with him at the time was seriously
wounded Robbery was the evident
purpose of the assailant. Mann's COM
panion has identified Lorenz as the
murderer and the charge against the
young German was strengthened when
a watch positively identified as having
belonged to the murdered man was
found among Lorenz's effects when
his room was searched after his ar
rest.
Lorenz denies the murder but freely
confesses to having either assaulted
or robbed nearly score of women,
most of the occasions having been I'm
towns near Providence during the
past fall and winter. He had a note
book i'm which he made a memorandum
Of each assault filling in the names
after he leaNped the identity of his
victims through the newspapers. Upon
his own admissions and as far as any
inquiry can substantiate his state
ments. Lorenz was n lone operator.
Though he admits he robbed indis-
criminately men and women by hold
ing them up with a gun on unfre-
quented thoroughfares, he frankly ad-
mits that women were his quest. He
only attacked men. he says. when
there were no women about. Leaving
his lodgings early In the morning or
I'm the evening he roamed the streets
seeking unprotected women with felon-
ous design. His diary which he faith
fully kept is a record Of success by
violence in his pursuit.
The most fiendish crime which the
police are inclined to lay to the door
of the young German baker. but which
they have so far failed to fasten on him
conclusively. was the murder OF Miss
Laura REGISTER who was found muir
dered in the Jewish cemetery in the
western suburbs Of this city early on
the morning of May IL last. The dis
covery OF the crime was made by n
passer-by, who found the dead and
mutilated body of the young woman In
ciump OF bushes. Broken bushes
and deep marks OF footprints told that
the young woman had fought hard for
her honor. big cuts on her head and
welts on the face disclosed that she
had finally been overpowered by the
use Of biudgeon. The motive of the
attack was criminal assault one of
the pathetic features Of the case was
that Miss REGISTER was 10 have been
married within n fortnight and when
she met her death she was on her
way 10 the dressmaker 90 see about
her wedding gown.

British torpedo boat destroyer Eden

The Eden broke from its moorings
during "A gale I'm the channel last night
and was driven ashore off this place.
When the tide receded the destroyer
was left high and dry and badly dam
aged. Her guns, heavy gear and coal
were removed in the hope that she
could be floated at the next high tide.
Unless this is possible the destroyer
will be pounded to pieces. One of the

each stockholder is liable for any de-
ficiency in the assets to an amount
equal to the par value of the shares
held by him. in addition to any amount
not paid up thereon, and there is a
"bank circulation redemption fund"
in charge of the government which Is
contributed by the banks. Each bank
is required to keep to its credit in this
fund per cent. in cash upon the av-
erage amount of its notes in circula-
tion from year to year. In case OF
suspension of payment, the notes OF
n bank draw interest at the rate Of
s per cent. per annum from the day
of suspension until the date named by
notice when they will be redeemed.
When the circulation fund is depleted
from any cause. call is made upon
the banks to replenish 1t at a rate not
exceeding 1 per cent. per annum OF
the banks circulation.
In addition to these provisions for
maintaining the soundness of the notes
there are several requirements of law
for the purpose of insuring their cur
rent redemption at par i'm all parts
of the Dominion. The notes must be
redeemed at the parent or head Office
of the banks and at agencies at com
mcrcial centers in each Province
which are fixed by law and at such
other places as the treasury board OF
the Dominion may designate. The
Canadian system differs from that OF
the United States i'm the absence OF
any requirement for the maintenance
of a fixed reserve against Liabilities
OF the banks, either notes or deposits,
and i'm the absence of any system OF
governmental inspection of the banks
The policy has gradually grown up
however, of considering a reserve OF
is per cent. desirable against demand
liabilities. and banks falling below this
are likely to be admonished by the
bankers association.
The chartered banks are members
of the Canadian Bankers association
founded in 1892, but which was given
the status of public corporation un-
der the amendment of 1900, and was
authorized TO establish clearing houses
for banks in any place in the Dom
inion and to make rules for their gov
