FORTUNE ONCE $3,000,000 Millions He Won During His Mete oric Career Melt Away and the ' Brokers Sue Daring Spec ulator tor lialance. NEW YORK. June 6. (Special.) Judge Guy in the Supreme Court today granted an attachment for 415 against the property of John Brandt Walker, who ten months ago was cred ited with possessing Jo.OUU.UOU that lie had made in the few months previous, "plunging" on the bear side in the etock market. Tne atuuJimt tit was' ob tained by Carpenti r. Uasott A: Co.. lookers. The amount mentioned in the alta hinent is allege, to represent a balance due the tirm of Carpenter, Liag gott & Co. on purchases and sales of Btock and wheat by Walker, commis sions and interest. Deals Kxeeed 2,000,000. It was set forth that between March t and June 3, 1308, Carpenter, Basgott & Co. boucht stocks for Walker to an aggregate of $2,04.1.11; and sold the eame stocks for $'2.0.'i7io. The issues traded In were principally Union Pa cific, Missouri 1'acitic. anil American 6melters. It is al'.esed by the peti tioner for the writ of attachment that Walker paid $10,001) on account on March 27, and $.oW more on May 1, leaving the balance, with interest and Commissions. $12,321. Between Sfarch 5 and May S, Car penter. Bactrott & Co. purchased for Walker, according to the representation made to the Court, May wheat to the aggregate of $790,887 and sold it tor $780,837. The balance in this wheat transaction against Walker was $11,094, which, added to the previous balance Jn stock deals, brougjit the total to 23,415. As soon as the writ was Issued it (was served on an officer of the Kifth Avenue Trust Company and several brokerage firms with which Walker was thought to have accounts. It was et out that Walker was a non-resident. Great Hear Campaign Tails. John Brandt Walker was a financial sensation of last year, lie conducted s, bear campaign beginning in March, 1907, and was credited with having made several millions, lie had an of fice at No. 500 Fifth avenue, in the house of S. II. P. Pell & Co., brokers. According to his own statement, lie traded through 14 houses. In an inter view he said he began his bear cam paign because of artificially large stock dividends in the face of an unassimi lated bond market. lie took a villa at Lakewood, N. J., a cottage at Saratoga, bought a string f fine horses and made a collection of automobiles. Ten years ago Walker came to New York from Chicago. His father was Kdwin Walker, of tho lat ter city, who left lilm $150,000. The younger Walker, who is 40 years old, was raised in the atmosphere of the Chicago wheat pit, and is said to have lost several fortunes before he befean his bear campaign last year. At his apartment in West Thirtieth street it was said tonight that he was not in the city. ALLIES TALK ABOUT BOLT. But Taft Men Say Wails Arc Prelude to Surrender. CHICAGO, June 6. (Special.) Sixteen more delegates were added to the in-structed-for-Taft column by the Republi can National committee today, and the 'allies," seeing nothing except defeat ahead and moved to bitter denunciation of the part being played by Taft man agers now in Chicago, tonight brought new complications into a situation that is tense to a marked degree. From one of the high authorities which hope conservative action will be taken came the announcement late tonight that decidedly radical moves are threatened by some, of the favorite-son states. The particular states were not named, but It Was asserted that the threats go so far s to Involve a bolt from the convention, because of alleged high-handed methods that are operating to deprive a large ele ment of the Republican party of repre sentation In the National gathering and preventing a free expression of Judgment regarding the nomination of a ticket. In the Taft camp the wailing of the "allies" Is regarded as merely the pre lude to unconditional surrender. It was pointed out tonight that the solicitude of the "allies" about the southern contests Is decidedly peculiar. In view of the fact that, outside of Kentucky, where the Fairbanks candidacy has interests, and a few scattering districts elsewhere in which Fairbanks and Hughes are con cerned, the "aflies" who are doing all the conferring have no direct concern over the outcome. In the great majority of contested cases still to be heard Foraker would be the beneficiary of a turndown of Taft delegates, and no Foraker repre sentative is participating in any of the exciting and sensational powwows now attracting attention. Cool heads among the "allied" forces are striving to prevent any radical action which may endanger party success in November. It is understood that Mr. llcnieiiway and Mr. Ciane are sitting on the lid. ORDER TROOPS TO ALASKA FORTUP fill Twenty-second Infantry Will Leave VukcouaVt on Transport Crook. VANCOJrt'lCn BARRACKS, Wash., June S. (Special.) In compliance with War Department orders, the .Twenty-second Infantry will, upon ar rival In the department, proceed to Alaska on the transport Crook and take station as follows, relieving the Tenth Infantry: Headquarters, band, the Adjutant, Third Battalion, machine gun platoon; Companies A and F, at Fort William U. .Seward. The Lieutenant-Colonel, the Adjutant, Quartermaster and Commissary, Seconi, Battalion, Companies I and C, at Fort Gibbons. , Major Daniel A. Frederick, the Quartermaster and Commissary, Third Battalion, Companies K and L, at Fort Liscum. Major J. F. Kreps, the Adjutant, First Battalion, Companies H and 1, at Fort Davis. The Quartermaster and Commissary, Fiist Battalion and Companies B and K, at Fort St. Michael; Companies G and M, at Fort, Egbert. The Twenty-second Infantry will proceed to, and the Tenth Infantry will be relieved from, the above stations as follows: The Twenty-second Infantry going to Fort Egbert will be landed at J aaagway ana proceed to r on r.goert via Whitehorse. The garrisons of the Tenth Infantry at Forts William H. Seward, Liscum, Davis and St. Michael will be relieved as soon as the garri sons of the "twenty-second Infantry ar rive, at these posts. The Twenty-second 'infantry going to Fort Gibbons, will be transferred at St. Michael to a river boat and proceed to Fort Gibbons. The Tenth Infantry at Forts Egbert and Gibbons will proceed by boat to St. Michael, so as to arrive there not later than July 12. The commanding officers. Forts Egbert and Gibbons, will leave sufficient arms, ammunition and equipment with the detachment of the Twenty-second Infantry at their posts to properly guard these posts until the arrival of the regular garrisons of the Twenty-second Infant! y. When the last company of the Tenth Infantry has been embarked on the transport Crook, the regiment will pro ceed to Seattle, and proceed from that point to Fort Benjamin Harrison, Ind., for station, by rail.

Smooth Talker Will Accompany Each Delegation to Chicago and Extol His Great Merits. INDIANAPOLIS. June 6. (Special.) The return of Vice-President Fairbanks from Washington and the announcement that he will hold frequent conferences with the ' party managers between this time and the assembling of the delegates at Chicago and take personal direction of his .campaign have given his Indiana friends more encouragement than they have felt for a month, and they are pre pared to work with much greater en thusiasm. Perhaps there has been no change in the belief that Secretary Taft will be nominated In the end, but the Fairbanks men are determined that the triumph of the War Secretary shall not be on the first ballot, if there is any possible way to prevent it. One of the plans for securing the ear of delegates from other states has just been ' perfected. It is now the purpose to select two or three of the best talkers In the Fairbanks ranks to accompany each delegation, as if by accident, and. while passing through the state, to. im press upon the delegates what a power Mr. Fairbanks has always been In In diana and how he has contributed to its development. According to the plan that the man agers have mapped out. one of these parties of two or three will always be at the Union Station for the purpose of leaving for Chicago with a delegation passing through. As soon as one leaven, another party will take its place, and thus every -delegation passing through the state, no matter whether from East or South, will be accompanied from here to Chicago by -some of Mr. Fairbanks' friends. Not even the colored delegates from the South are to be neglected, for some of the best-known colored men in the city will be ready to join their brethren through the South and put In their work for Mr. Fairbanks during the remainder of the Journey.

As a result of the wanton murder of Policeman Helns on the Barbary Coast Thursday morning, the Police Commis sioners have decided to clamp the lid down on that district. The number of patrolmen In the district has been doubled. The most vicious dens will be closed at once. City Attorney Long prepared today a list of dance halls in arrears in license payments and an nounced that he will shut them up forthwith unless the licenses are promptly paid and perfect order main tained in the future. When the Barbary Coast resorts come up for a renewal of their permits this month, several of them are to be closed. Taking advantage of the lib erties allowed them during the visit of the fleet, the "Coast" dens have be come extremely bold. Little Boy la Ran Down.

Rain realms aftsr IW days' downpour and riven? begin to fall. .QREAT FALLS, Mont., June 6. Never before In the history of Montana has there "been such a flood as Is now sweep ing down the valley of the Missouri River and Its tributaries. Five lives have al ready been lost in the waters bi this vicinity, and the damage to farms, rail roads and industrial and commercial In stitutions will run Into the millions. To night the river Is at the highest point ever known since the first settlement of Montana and it is still rising. This afternoon the water plant of the Boston & Montana Smelter at this point gave way and the smelter is closed. The city water plant is partially under water and the city is threatened with a water famine. Towns Made into Islands. Some of the smaller outside towns are in even worse condition than i's Great Falls. At last reports Chot,;-au was com pletely surrounded by water and all bridges were gone. A large part of Belt was partially under water and the people had taken to the high ground. Sunnyside reported buildings half full of water and just before the telephone wires to Fort Benton went down it was reported that the bridge across the Missouri at that point had gone down. Five Drowned in Torrent. So far the ltiss of life reported Is five. These are: Mr. and Mrs. Gentry, living near Cas cade, who attempted to follow a ,flood?a road and were carried away by the cur rent. "William McFadyln. foreman at T. C. Powers' ranch on Sun River. Two -children of William Dick were drowned about seven miles above this city. Dick is a farmer living in the Mis souri bottom. Kfforts were made to res cue those in danger, but the current was so strong that no headway could be made. A family of four persons was rescued from an elevated point surrounded by water where they had been all night. jriNTJ 33 DAYS' RAIN' Sl'OKM Rivers Begin to Fall, but Communi cation is Mopped. MISSOULA. Mont.. June 6. Tonight at 6 o'clock the sun broke through the clouds after 33 days of rain and, the rain fall, which has been lessening since morning, ceased. The rivers tonight show a lower mark than they did 24 hours ago. and tnere 1b hope that the worst Is over. But there aas been great damage and it may be days or weeks before railroad traffic is resumed to the eastward. All day today Missoula was cut oft from the outside world. . Not until to night has there been wire communication and it consists of a single line to the west and none to the east. Last night and this morning the high water reached Its maximum, registering the highest mark ' ever known in this country. All of the city and county bridges are out and Missoula is divided Into three districts, each of which is without communication with the outside. Three large residences in the cltyv went down the river this morning. Their occupants had been warned and were out before the flood struck. The big log jam of the Blackfoot Company has been held in place and the great power dam owned by W. A. Clark Is. Intact. The Northern Pacific has but one line in operation in this district, the branch to the Couer d'Alenes' and that Is op erated only on transfer of passengers. More track has gone out between Mis soula and Butte and several of the com pany's stations have been washed down stream. The damage to farms in the "bottom lands will be great. The loss to the city and county will run far Into the thousands and cannot be estimated until the water goes down. The outlook tonight Is en couraging and It is believed the crisis has been passed. RAIN HAS CEASED IN MONTANA. Trains Begin to Move, but Railroads Are Demoralized. BUTTE, Mont.. June 6. The railroad situation in Montana Is much Improved today and the rain has stopped. The Northern Pacific Is sending trains east from Butte tonight, although the line east of Bozeman was again tied up today by another washout. Farmers In the Gallatin Valley esti mate that two-thirds of their crops will be destroyed. Superintendent Goodall, of the North ern Pacific, says he has no idea as to when the line will be open. Big gangs' of men are at work, but the task is a tremendous one. Conditions are better on the eastern than on the western end. The track. It is feared, has been washed out for miles through the Hell Gate Can yon. No 1, with 14 coaches, is held here until the tracks are cleared. Wolf Creek, on the Great Northern, is reported under, waiter; at Craig, people are using boats in the streets and have been driven out of all one-story houses. The tracks are also under water and when telephone communicatign was in terrupted yesterday, a report stated it was bflleved the track would soon go. Two culverts went out near Silver, .be tween Helena and Great Falls, but a number of Northern Pacific west-bound trains were on the other side before the break came. These are now at Great Falls. - A small dam up Lump Gulch went out and the flood which po'ured into the Big Prickly Peir covers the East Hel ena smelters to a depth of three feet. Manager Smith said It will be two weeks before the company Is again op- erating. a uam at mancnneio LaKn went out at 4 o'clock this morning and flooded scores of farms in the valley. South of Silver Bow the tracks of the .Oregon Short Line aie in good con dition and the Northern Pacific tonight will probably dispatch its trains to the Coast over that line, transferring to the tracks of the O. R. & N. at Pocatello. Fastbound Northern Pacific trains are expected to come from Spokane by the same route. The Great Northern system today is in practically a complete state of de moralization, so bad thac not even the transfer of passengers Is being at tempted. In addition to Its tracks be ing inundated In the Prickly Pear Canyon and covered with landslides between Butte and Helena, the wires of the company are prostrated between here and Helena and to Northern points. The Butte, Anaconda & Pacific Rail way Is out of business until Monday at least, and until that line is repaired the mines of the Red Metals, North Butte and Amalgamated " Companies will have to remain shut down. The Biitte Reduction Works and the Clark mines resumed work today. Elec tric cars have resumed and the city is j again being lighted. Wire service tint I of the city is gradually being restored, though It is still in a sorry plight. Three lives are reported lost in the valley below Helena, but delinite In formation on the subject Is hard to ob tain. NORTHERN' LINES r BLOCKED Pacific Northwest Cut Off From East by Floods. SPOKANE. Wash., June 6. The Pa cific Northwest west of Butte and Hel ena Is today cut off from the East by floods so far as the Great Northern, the Northern Pacific and Canadian Pa cific Railways are concerned. The only trains which can reach this part of the country must come from Butte via the Oregon Short Line and the O. R. & N. The Montana Central branch of the Great Northern went out of commission yesterda y a fternoon, and the main line followed suit last night. Four North ern Pacific trains came through on the Great Northern Friday, leaving four or five Northern Pacific and several Great Northern trains marooned In Montana. East of Spokane the Great Northern Is operating only the Bonners Ferry local. The washouts on the Great Northern extend across Montana east of Whitefish for the greater part, and officials say thaf two or three days at least must elapse before a train can get through from St. Paul. The Northern Pacific is operating trains Nos. 5 adn 6 between Trout Creek and the Coast and Nos. 3, 4, 15 and 16 between Spokane and the Coast, the regular schedule being maintained. Further washouts occurr-d on the Northern Pacific west of Missoula last night. Officials say there Is a possibil ity o fgetting trains through to Helena and Butte from the West by Wednesday or Thursday. The line is clear from St. Paul to these two cities. Northern Pacific trains Nos. 1 and 2 will arun via the Oregon Short Line and the O. R. & N. to Butte. The Great Northern cannot get Into either Butte or Helena on account of Montana Central washouts. Soo-Spokane trains have quit running on account of floods In Alberta. Today's westbound train got through before the washouts and will arrive several hours late. The Postal Telegraph Is practically cut off from Montana and Western Union wires to Missoula are down. though Butte and Helena can be reached. CANADIAN BRIDGES GO OCT Rain and Floods Continue to Do Grrjat Damage In Alberta. MOLKOD, Alberta. June 6. The Cana: dlan Pacific bridge at West McLeod was swept away last night. St. Mary's bridge, between here and Lethbrirtge. Is a total wreck and the Canadian Pacific pumping station has been swept Into the river. The bridge at Browket on the Crow's Nest line is expected to go at any time, and mall and freisht and passenger traf fic is at a standstill. Rain continues to fall In torrents. Farms for many miles around are Inun dated and houses have floated away. FLEE FROM FLOOD AT TOPEKA Residences and Business Houses on Low Ground Abandoned. TOPEKA. Kan., June 6. The govern m?nt weather officials here predict tonight that the Kansas River will go above the flood stage by Sunday night or Monday morning from the water whl3;i has al ready fallen alor& its tributaries. Many people in the lowlands are moving out and business interests in the lower part of the city are preparing for a flood. The Wolff Packing Company had the Rock "island Railroad move 600 head of live- stock from its yards today. I According to the weather officials the I river will reach 22.5 or 23 feet. With this much of a raise threatening weather pre vails along the headwaters.
