Bank Director J0kyII and Hyde
Worth Nearly a Million.
SWlNDLED FORTY-SIx YEARS
Held at Last After Being Arrested
Three Times Before - Never Went
After Small Amounts, and His Hsuls
Were Always Larse-Systsm Eek
planned by Detectives.

Detectives who had been searching
for sixteen years for John w. Barn
hardt declare that In his arrest In st.
Louis they captured the most daring,
successful criminal In the United
States. How many names he operated
under Is yet to be determined; but. ac-
cording to the police, he has confessed
being guilty OF fraudulent acts for for
ty-six years in every large city of the
country.
His profits are said to have made
him almost a millionaire. Only three
times before In his career has he been
a~rrested-in Kansas City. Denver and
Waukesha. Wis.
His life has not been one OF lodging
and hiding from officers of the law.
but rather a Jekyll and Hyde existence.
For ten years he had lived In a splen-
did home in Forrest City, Ark. to
which he returned periodically with
thousands of dollars, which he placed
In his bank. He was a leading citizen
and director of the largest bank, and
his family was prominent socially. He
had been urged to become a candidate
for the state senate.
According to the police, the thou
sands he brought home were obtained
by loans on fraudulent deeds. which Is
alleged to have been his speciality for
twenty years. As John w. Kline he
is said to have gone to Kansas City in
1893, represented himself as a man OF
means and obtained a loan of $4,000
on a bogus deed. He was arrested and
sentenced to two years.

the Arabic Case.
Washington, Sept. 16.-State de-
partment Off cials. commenting on the
disclaimer of the Berlin government
that the Canadian liner Hesperian
was torpedoed, said that insufficient
evidence had been received OF which
to base representations to Germany
at this time. From the facts at hand,
IL was said. no opinion could be form
ed as to whether the Hesperian was
~torpedoed or struck by a mine.
Official reports have made no refer
ence to statements of passengers on
the liner that large pieces OF metal
were found on the deck OF the vessel,
which might furnish evidence to de
termine whether the ship was the vic
tim OF a mine or a torpedo. III 1t
should be determined that the Hes
perian struck a mine, officials say,
there would be no means of fixing
responsibility for placing the mine.

SOCCER FOOTBALL
AS A CONDITIONER
Rebel Oakes. of Pittfeds, Introduces
New Idea of Spring
Training.

Soccer football as conditioner for
ball players was introduced with excel
lent results this year by Rebel Cakes.
manager of the Pittsburgh FederaIs. At
the conclusion of each semi-daily practice
session. Cakes had his men stage a SOC
Ger battle-and they were real battles.
Gore often was spilled during those
one-Soal soccer games. The ball players
rouShcd things in 4 way that even the
hardest soccer experts never attempted.
No real rules governed the Rebels SOC
Ger doinSs and hitting in clinches. not
being barred. was INDUCED in to the
hearts content Of all those concerned.
Cakes divided his club. putting an even
number OIL each side The game ended
when one side scored goal. Sometimes
the game lasted only five minutes, some
times il continued for thirty. Oakcs
forced his men to keep at it until one
side or the other made a score
At the conclusion of one Of the games
1t was seen that Davy Jones. out
fielder. had a bloody nose. So did Elmer
knetZer. pitcher. Ed. konetchy first
sacker. had four chin bruises from being
kicked; Infielder Martin Berghammer
had three ?nd ten other players had one
or two. Harvard Camnitz. pitcher. was
suffering from loosenod teeth because
Pitcher Bunny Hearne rammed his
head into Gangs" face. Six other play
ers were wounded in different spots
It's great game to get the boys in
shape" says Cakes. 1T hardens their

Yesterdays Rain Will
Improve Bowie Track
Downpour Was Not Heavy
Enough to Do Harm-Fast
Time Is Expected.
COURSE POPULAR ONE
Nv GEORGE b. MORRIS.

Bowie Md, April 1.-THE rain
which fell today did the track great
deal of good. and the soil has settled
down so that good time may be ex-
pected tomorrow. The rain was not
heavy enough TO make the track slow,
but rather improve IT. The card.
which is made up of six events. is a
good one. and as many of the horses
have faced the flag during the present
meeting a fair line can be obtained
on their respective merits
steady increase has been noted
each day at the track, and from pres
fnt indications il looks as though
Bowie course is destined TO be one OF
the most popular hereabouts.
The management intend to make
many improvements as soon as the
present spring meeting is over, and
when the fall meeting opens Bowie
will be greatly improved in many
ways.
Many new stables are to be erected.
and as plans are now being drawn for
the new clubhouse il is expected this
building will he completed in time for
the next meeting.

No Heavy-weights on Pugllis-
tic Horizon Who Can Com
pare with Kansan.
ELIMINATES BUT THREE

| Jess Willard will he heavyweight cham
I MON of the world for a longer period
than any man who ever held the title
is the opinion OF the men who know Will
Hard best.
| lust now there is not fighter on the
pugilistic horizon who looks able to beat
Willard. with the exception OF sam
Langford. and Tina mmy' won't get a
Ichanc. at the title because Jess has de-
ci,Icd that one battle with dark gent is
quite enough.
/ Ever since Willard pushed his right
hand against Juhnson's face in the
ltwentv-sixth round of the Havana al
! fair the big Texan has been bombarded
with dets But he won't accept any oil
them. 1t is unlikely that Willard VIII
do any battling for another year or So
What's the use? He can make more
money by training for stage chores. and
there's no chance of his losing his heavy
weight title on the stage.
Looking over the list of white hopes
who think they have a chance 10 beat
Willard. one Immediately eliminates all
but three One of these is Gunboat
smith. who won a twenty-round decision
from Willard on the coast some time ago.
That was when Willard was in tn" raw
state and the 'GoOner' had been de-
velopcd into perfection. Smith wouldn't
have much OF chance against Willard
now. because the Willard of eighteen
months ago is a far different Willard
than the present one.
The next gent that might he con-
sidered is Jim Coffey, an Irish party.
who has a terrible punch. wonderful
endurance. Gameness far beyond the
average. and little or no boxing skill.
coffey is a sluGger. not boxer.
Coney might have chance with
Willard if he were better boxer
than willard. but he isn't. Therefore.
Willard would have the advantage in
every department Of puEilism over
Coffey. which would leave Cofey only
the faint hope of suea king over sleep
producing punch while Willard was
looking out the window.
And now we come to No. Carl
Morris. This Morris fellow is regard
cd as the original white hope He was
one of the first to get into harness
after the Reno affair for the purpose
of beating up Jack johnson.
Morris lacks only an inch or so of
being as tall as willard. He is almost
as powerful. He can stand more pun
ishment than any man in the game.
And his punches have terrible power
when they hit. But that let's out Nor
ris. He isn't any judge of distance.
He is as clumsy as they make them.
he knows nothing about the science
of the ring game. and seems to be a
hopeless proposition as a pupil. These
three men are the best in the game
and not one seems good enough to
have a real chance against willard.
The new champ is only -. He hasn't
quite reached his prime. At 80 he
will start to slip back. but he can do
quite a bit of slipping before he slips
to the point where any of the pres
ent-day fighters would have a real
chance against him. In the future
giant may arise who may be able
to take Wizards measure. but that
seems to be in the somewhat distant
future
