NEUFED UNGRATEFUL FOR ENGLISH HELP
 SAY ENEMY CRITICS
Report that Well Known Ger man Trader and Traveller Has Attempted to Stir Mo- hammedants Up.

LONDON. Jan. 24.-No minor incl dent of the war has so stirred up the British press recently as the report from German sources that Karl Neu- field. the German trader and traveller well known in the Near East, has been trying to influence the Mohammedan tribes in Servia and Arabia against the Allies.
 Neufeld was rescued from prison by Lord Kitchener and the British troops at Omdurman in September, 1898. For ten years he had lain in a Mahdist jail. subjected to horrible tortures, ac- cording to his own account.
 In his book descriptive of his adven, lures, Neufeld tells how, on being thrown into prison, three sets of iron shackles were attached to his feet and rings and chains, fastened about his neck. He was often fiogged and on one occasion he received 500 lashes From these horrors he was saved by the British and returned to freedom.
 During his imprisonment, NeufeId gained a fluent knowledge of Arabic srd an intimacy with Mohammedan life and customs known to few whites. Like Burton, he made pilgrimages in native guise both to Medina and Mec- "a. It was at Medina that his identity was suspected and he was made to take an oath that he was a Musselman and to undergo searching examina- tion on the Koran by Mohammedan doctors. from which he emerged sue cessfully.
 At this time, it is declared. Neufeld did service to his country that brought its reward in this war. He spread the belief among the ignorant Mohammedan populace that there were many Mohammedans in Germany. In fact the current belief in Islam that the Kaiser is the grand caliph of the European Mohammedans and went to war to free them from Christian op- pression is attributed to Neufeld's busy propaganda
 There is story that Neufeld re- gently went to Germany not only as the bearer of valuable political and military information for the German government but also of bottle of miracle-working water from the sacred Zem-Zem well at Mecca. given him by the faithful as cure for General von Hindeberg's gout According to the traveller Burton, Zem-Zem water is bit ter to the taste and causes diarrhoea and boils, but the faithful say that it not only restores health but brightens the vision, physically and spiritually and facilitates the pronunciation of Arabic
 All that is known about Neufeld's activities comes from the German pa pers, and for that reason they are ac- cepted as true by the British press, which accuses Neufeld of ingratitude toward his rescuers.
 Omdurman, where Neufeld suffered, has, say the British. been brougl un- der justice and order by British rule, and it is this benefit to the natives in particular and civilization in general. they declare. that .Neufeld is seeking to destroy.

W. E. BARNES TELLS HOW FLOOD WATERS
 EFFECT RAILROADS
Widely Known Southern Pa cihc Representative Brings Encouraging News; Some Observances of Storm.

w E. Barnes of Tucson, special representative of the Southern Pacific Railroad, arrived, last night. in Bis bee and is a guest at the Copper Queen Hotel MT. Barnes, who is re- cognized as a distinguished authority on archaeological matters of the Southwest, is always a welcome visit or in Bisbee, fact due in no small measure to his marked geniality coup led with his broad knowledge not only of matters directly connected with railroad affairs. but with general conditions of the Southwest. Speak ing to Review reporter of conditions following the storms. as affecting rail road service. MT. Barnes said:
 While the extraordinary flood waters of the last few days have played havoc with the service of the Southern Pacific, the company with it's usual promptness has risen to the situation. No expense or effort is be- ing spared to re-establish regular pas senger and freight service.
 Hundreds of men and vast quanti- ties of materials have been rushed to the points where traffic has been in terrupted On the main line stub trains are running on regular schedule time between Fl Paso and Yuma. The break west of Yuma will be repaired in record time. probably within a few days In the meantime, through pas sengers for the Pacific Coast are be- ing detoured via Deming and the Santa Fe.
 "The interruption on the Arizona Eastern, between Maricopa and Phoe- nix, by the washing away of seven spans of the bridge across the Gila River, will be repaired as quickly as possible. perhaps in about a weeks time.
 Arrangements have been made for auto service, from Casa Grande on the main line to Florence, and transfer across the river by ferry. The fare, by automobile from Casa Grande to Florence, is S5 and the ferry charge is s1. This arrangement enables pas sengers for Phoenix to get through in fairly good time.
 Wherever trains have been held on account of the flood the Southern Pa cific has freely co-operated in the care of passengers, seeking to relieve the situation of all unpleasant features. At Tucson. the Chamber of Commerce co-operated, showing the detained passengers every courtesy. Yuma, also, extended every possible hospi- tality until submerged by the flood waters. A wire, received a few mo- ments ago. informs me that the waters at Yuma are receding and that condi- tions will sooa assume their normal aspect.
 Considerable anxiety has been c-~- ated throughout the country in fear of the menace to the fuel oil sources of California. However. in this re- gard will say that I think no serious danger exists.
 T am very glad to return to Bisbee which always is such pleasant place to visit and I plan to remain here several days"
