ENGINE WRECKED HIS HOUSE.
DomiciIe of Late William Pruseit Was
Left on o. p. Tracks.

The death of William Pruseit or
Dutch Billy" the hermit. who was
found dead in his house Thursday morn
ing, recalls many amusing anecdotes
of his life.
He followed the shoemaker's trade at
old Indianola when he came here in
1856, from northern Germany. Toward
the latter sixties Indianola was aban-
doned and the majority Of the houses
were moved away. Among them was
Billy's.
In those days housemoving facilities
were poorer than now. Rollers made
from tree trunks to which the teams
of the neighborhood were attached were
employed.
Pruseit had selected the site of his
present hut for his new home. En- route
the rollers became stuck on the grade
of the old Kansas Pacific, now Union
Pacific tracks. about five miles west of
Topeka 1t was nearly shutdown. Fin
ally just as the house had been pushed
and pulled squarely across the track,
the rollers sunk too far in the soft
earth of the soft grade to be removed

ers then unhitched their horses and

The existence and potency of some of
these Governor Stubs recognized in
his own case and he employed them,
very properly, to explain the "unearn-
ed increment to his bank stock.
But even as to the elements of value
which can be measured with something
like reasonable certainty it was demon
strated at the trial, as I have shown
herein. that Governor Stubs was
wrong to the degree of gross injustice
when he said that he could produce
the main line of the Santa Fe for $780,
900 a mile. His calculations compre-
hended only a fraction of a railroad
The Santa Fe and the people of
Kansas have common and inseparable
interests. They pioneered together and
beheld with clear vision the rich gifts
of the future when the state was de-
rided as a desert. Side by side they
fought the great fight when both the
people and the railroad were shabby
and miserably poor. But both were
courageous. And true courage is al
ways just. AS the property of both
has come from the same source, and
as neither god fortune nor bad for
tune can come to one without coming
to the other also, the stirrer up of
enmity between them is indeed an
evil-doer. T. ]. NORTON.

Bethlehem Steel company and owner
of the Union Iron works of this city.
The work will be largely done at the
latter place which has been only mod
erately active since the completion of
the cruiser California in 1904. 1t will
mean the spending of millions of dol
lars in this country.
In its time the Union Iron works has
turned out for Uncle Sam some of the
finest ships in the navy. 1t was some
% years ago that construction was
first begun on the Inflated Charleston,
the cruiser which later went ashore on
the island of Luzon, in the Philippines.
In those % years the Union Iron works
has completed 81 war vessels, includ-
ing the world-famous battleship Ore
gon and the cruiser California.
In 1890 was launched the third class
cruiser San Francisco, since super
seeded by the vessels of later construc-
ton. In 1891 the big monitor Monterey
was launched from the yards in the
Potrero. The oregon, which endeared
Itself to the entire nation when 1t made
its record trip around the Horn in
1898 to fight the Spaniards, was
launched in 1893.
In 1895 came the Olympia, from
the bridge of which Dewey directed
the battle of Manila bay: In 1898 the
battleship Wisconsin and the torpedo
boat Farragut; in 1897 the twin gun
boats Wheeling and Marietta; in 1900
the wyoming and the destroyer Perry;
in 1901 the battleship Ohio the ar
mored cruiser Tacoma and the destroy
er Preble; in 1902 the torpedo boat
Pssil Jones, and in 1904 the big cruis-
ers California, South Dakota and Mil
waukee. Later came the submarines
Grampus and Pike.
In addition to the Union Iron works,
which Schwab acquired a number of
years ago, the president of the Bethle-
hem steel company is the owner of the
huge steel dry docks at Hunters point.

low the conningtower depends the eff
fcieny of the giant fighting machine.
Today the loud-speaking telephones is
largely depended upon for the trans
mission of intelligence from lookout to
the fighting arms of the ship. In the
din of battle it is quite evident that
such method of communication would
become at least decidedly unreliable,
If not imperative. A system which
would cause printed observations to
appear beside each great gun would
prove of inestimab1e value for the
handling of the battleship of the
dreadnought type.

SCHIFF HAZE CLEARS
Mystery of Yelled Attacks on Banker
Partly Understood.

New York. Nov. 5.-When Miss
Anna Volinsky, a woman of about 40
years, was placed in the psychopathic
ward of Bellevue hospital for observa-
ton, the mystery of the yelled attacks
on the life of Jacob H. Schif was
somewhat cleared. The woman was
arrested in the office of her attorney,
Bernard H. Sander, at 257 Broadway,
who was about to give her into the
custody of the district attorney.
She said she was in a stock broker
age business prior to 1907, but was
then engaged to solicit subscriptions
for the Montefiore home on so per
cent commission. She said that in the
two years following she obtained 900
new subscribers to the philanthropy,
each paying from $40 to $25 yearly.
On November 8, 1909, Miss Volinsky
said she received a letter from Mr..
Schiff regretting her resignation and
inclosing warm letter OF recommen.
dalton for her work as solicitor of
the Montefore home, which she
showed.
II felt that in view of the fact"
said Miss Volinsky, that had never
been paid for but part of my commits
sion for the home and that there was
still a considerable balance due me,
and because of the humiliations that
I had gone through as result of the
attack on me, 1 was entitled to con-
sideration and monetary redress.
tI never in my life owned pistol
I never in my life fired one, and GER
tain it is that never in any way or
in any manner threatened Mr.. Schfff,
whom I have always found to be a gen
tleman. I am the last person to wish
him harm in the slightest degree"
In court DR.. Siegfried Wachmann
appeared on the papers as complain
ant. He is medical director of the
Montefore home. In his affidavit he
said that the woman had written
threatening letters not only to him,
but also to Mr.. Schiff and Kaufman
Mandel, the latter two being directors
of the home. Attached to the COM
plant were several of these letters,
and in all of them the woman re
ferred to her being unable to get her
commissions

went home.
Billy walked to Topeka where he in
formed the depot people of the situa-
ton. He was given a lantern with
which to flag trains. Only one train
was expected from the west that night,
as the road had not been built much
further than Junction City. However,
before it's arrival the lantern which was
to stop it, went out. The engine smash
ed into the house, knocking it into
splinters and damaging the locomo-
tive badly.
Billy nevertheless saved a few frag-
ments of his shattered home and used
them in the construction of the hovel
in which he died.
1t is said that he drank considerably.
When intoxicated he had the habit of
building a fire in the stove on which
he would then take a seat. He never
seemed to be harmed by this habit.

To support his statement that he

More than half million has been
put into the line since the foregoing
construction charges were incurred,
and the work of finishing the road will
go on for a long time to come.
Cutting out of the foregoing state
ment the figures of both ON ballasting,
that work on the Belen cutoff being
unfinished, and Governor Stubbs' lead
pencil construction falls short of ac-
tuality by $12,500 a mile. The Santa
Fe is at the disadvantage of being
obliged to construct its lines on the re-
sisting earth and with money either
earned or borrowed, It's borrowing
power depending upon it's earning
power; whereas, the governor can
build railroads in the air with Ian
guage He has refused to build rail-
roads with money. He testified that
he once considered the construction of
line from BelleviIle south through
Wichita. traversing a region which he
declared to be badly in need of rail-
road and the richest in the world. But
Notwithstanding the opening which
there is in Kansas for an honestly con-
structed and honestly operated rail-
road and for all of the tonnage and
the passenger travel available and
waiting in the richest region in the
world he never rfsked a dollar. Much
as he loves the people and appreciates
their needs, he left them to shift for
themselves. The railroads Is yet I'M
built On cross examination he adj
mitted that, for all of the enormous
earnings of railroads of which he talks,
property He admitted also that he
has taken much money out of rail-
roads.
