Dead Near Berlin

AMSTERDAM, July l2-Karl Neu-
field, known as "the prisoner OF the
Mahdi," has died in a santarium near
Berlin. according 10 advices reaching
here
Karl Ncufcld was rescued from a
MahdiSt jail at Omdurman in Septcm
her 1893, where he had been a prisoner
for ten years His rescuers were Brit
iSh troops Commanded by Lord Ktch-
ener.
During his imprisonment Ncufeld
gained fluei knowledge OF Arabic

release he made pilgrimaRes TO Mecca
and successfully passed a searching ex-
animation in Koran when his claim 10
being a Mohammedan was disputed
At this time he spread the prevailing
belief among uniformed Mohammedans
that Emperor William is the grand
callph of the European Mohammedans
and went to war TO free them from
Christian oppression"

DENY 'ADOO WILL
Be RESERVE HEAD

NEW YORK. Nov. 24.-Secretary OF
the Treasury MeAdoo's resignation
caused the revival in financial cir.
cles here of rumors that Benjamin
Strong will soon retire as governor
of the Second District Federal Re-
serve Bank. and that Mr.. MeAdoo will
succeed him. Mr.. McAdoo's frankly
stated reason that he needs to make
more money than the $4,000 salary
he receives as Secretary OF the Treas
ury. lent color to the rumor. as Mr..
Strong's salary is S35.00O.
Another report circulated today re-
specting Mr.. McAdoo's future plans
was that he will enter the legal firm
of Cntemyer & Marshal. of which
Samuel Untermyer and Louis Mar
shall are members.
Reports that Secretary Of the Treas
ury McAdoo had been selected COVER
nor of the New York Federal Reserve
Bank were discounted here. At the
Secretary's office II was stated that
there is nothing to it."
