New York Report Claims
Former Richmond Man
Takes SS0,0OO,OO0 to New
England Home.

ITO the best of my knowledge D. G..
Reid has not purchased the Warwick
Castle in England. and as to the report
that he intends to make England his
1uture nome, to eXpatrlate himself,
that is absurd"
rms statement was made today by
prominent Richmond man. a relative
OF his and who in the past has been
closely associated with him.
He further stated that another
American had leased Warwick Castle
for period of two years.
Il know that if Mr.. Reid ever left
the United States he would not make
England his home. He would live
either in Paris or some place in Ger
many. Should Mr. Reid ever go
abroad to live, it would not be until he
had definitely decided to retire from
active business affairs, and | know that
he now has no idea of retiring from
business. 1t is also a fact that if Mr..
Reid was going abroad to live he would
SO notify the members of his family,
which he has not done"
Deny Expatriation.
The reported action of Mr.. Reid in
eXpatriating himself, on the eve of the
governmental investigation of the
Rock Island railroad system, in which
he has been heavily interested, was
published yesterday, but local friends
OF Mr.. Reid unite in declaring this re
port has no foundation Of facts. He
sailed for Europe several weeks ago
but is expected to return within a
short time.

Daniel G Reid is the owner of War
wick Castle. undoubtedly the most IA
nous Of all the ancient places in
England. For time it was thought
that Harry w. Marsh had leased it for
his own use. Now it is known that
Mr. Marsh did not lease Warwick
Castle, but that he bought it outright
for Dan Reid
Think of it. Dan Reid, a most stall
wart and athletic man in American
finances and railroad promotion, own
ing as his home the most distinctive
English castle. Dan Reid, who used
to be, first, the holder of a minor
position in bank at Richmond, Ind,
who saw the poss Utilities of the manu-
featuring Of lin in America and who
when he got a little more advanced
took all the money that he and his
friends had or could possess. and in
vested it in what was then supposed
to be an impossibility, the manufac
turing Of tin in America.
His First Success.
Major Mckinley, long before he be
came President, was put onto the pos

terested Major Mckinley, but let i
suffice 10 know that the Major made
American tin the hulwark of his cam
