Thomas said he based his projection on "The high scenario level of development in the Old West study" of Northern Great Plains natural resources and industrial potential. The Health Department wants a minimum flow of about 6.5 million acre-feet a year in the streambed as a means of protecting existing users.

The Yellowstone's average annual flow has been calculated at about 8.8 nillion acre feet. The department originally requested 6.6 million acre-feet but changed its request after Thomas made an update in his projections. The hearing on Health's application started Friday afternoon.

(AP) The Federal Bureau of Investigation announced Monday night it expects to issue arrest warrants Tuesday in connection with a train collison that occurred near Point of Rocks. A runaway train engine slammed into the rear of a freight train being repaired Sunday night, derailing two cars and blocking both tracks of Union Pacific Railroad's main line.

The FBI said it had "developed four subjects" in connection with the incident. A railroad spokesman said no one was injured in the mishap, which he said apparently was due to the work of pranksters. The spokesman said the switch engine was left idling unattended in the Rock Springs rail yards Sunday night when a nearby resident spotted two men inside the engine about 9 p.m., blowing the engine's horn. About 20 minutes later, one of the train dispatchers at the Rock Springs yard saw the engine headed east on the railroad's east-bound main line. The spoksman said the dispatcher alerted crew members working on a disabled freight train near Point of Rocks, 28 miles east of Rock Springs, that the runaway engine was headed in their direction.

The train engine piled into the caboose and a freight car loaded with carrots, the spokesman said. The railroad spokesman said crews had cleared one of the two tracks blocked by the derailment by early Monday morning, and the other was expeted to be open to rail traffic later in the day.

Banker's elude huge SHERBROOKE, Quebec (UPI) Banker Charles Marion, kidnapped from a country cottage for $1 million ransom, was believed in captivity for a ninth day Monday despite the most intensive manhunt mounted by Quebec police in recent years. Quebec Police Force spokesmen said they believed Marion was alive but no word had been received from his abductors since Friday. The Friday message, made public Monday, was a coded communique for police.

A police response was broadcast during the weekend by a local radio station. The police message said: The police message said: "Code A is reduced and delayed by nice weather. Code is of doubtful quality. Code is unique and temporarily out of service." later broadcast modified the message slightly to say: "Half Code is temporarily out of service." QPF deputy director Robert Turpin, said in Montreal messages received from the abductors indicated they had some knowledge of Marion's habits and acquaintances. "Three of the four messages were left with people who knew him," Turpin said.

Turpin said all the letters were delivered within a fairly limited area in Sherbrooke and might indicate Marion is being held nearby. A house-to-house search by police of all buildings in the rural area surrounding the secluded country cottage from which the 57-year-old credit union executive was abducted Aug. 6, has failed to turn up any clues to hiswhereabouts.

Serving all faiths with dignity Michelotti-Sawyers Downtown Mortuary (Settergren Memorial Chapei) 121 NORTH 29TH ST. 252-2838 Mortuary Parking Lot Adjacent A West Gern government spokesman said later Monday in Bonn that Mrs.

Kappler had called to say her husband was in Germany, but gave no further details. If Kappler is in West Germany, he apparently cannot be returned to Italy since West German Basic Law Article 16 says: "No German may be extradited abroad." However, the West German Federal Police were seeking Kappler at the request of Interpol, a police spokesman said. Lattanzio said the investigation was continuing but it had been determined that Mrs. Kappler "frequently came and went with cases and clothes. She had unlimited access to her husband and that is why she was not questioned on this occasion." Before leaving with the large case, Mrs.

Kappler put a sign on Kappler's ward door reading: "Do not disturb before 10 a.m.' Hospital officials only reported Kappler missing at 11: 10 a.m. (3:10 a.m. MDT) Monday when they found cushions and pillows stuffed in his bed to resemble a body. Last year Kappler, his wife and his Rome defense lawyer, Franco Cuttica, all said he had only a short time to live because of terminal stomach cancer. Lattanzio said Kappler had refused any surgery and had not left his bed for eight months before he vanished.

Kappler was convicted in 1948 of ordering the shooting of 335 Italians at the Ardeatine Caves on Rome's outskirts in 1944 in reprisal for an Italian partisan bombing in a Rome street in which 32 SS troops were killed. The Kappler massacre was the subject of a book "Massacre in Rome" by American historian Robert Katz and later a film in which Richard Burton played Kappler. Four hours after Kappler's disappearance was discovered, but before he was reported with his wife in Germany, the Italian news agency ANSA received an anonymous call purportedly from the West German urban terrorist group Red Morning saying Kappler had been kidnaped. The voice demanded the release Andreas Baader and other "political" prisoners in West Germany in exchange for Kappler. Lattanzio would not comment on the call, except to say he had noted it.

Only one other Nazi war criminal is still in an Italian jail. He is Walter Reder, jailed for life for the 1944 reprisal slaying of 1,820 residents of the mountain town of Marzabotto. A campaign had been under way in recent months in West Germany to gain the release of Kappler and Reder on humanitarian grounds.

Sherbrooke newspapers printed excerpts of a letter to Marion's wife, Denise, in which the banker reportedly wrote: "I know that my life is not worth $1 million, but as a human being I realize I want to live "I am certain I am convinced that if the demands are not accepted they will kill me." Turpin said it was not possible to determine whether the letter was written by Marion, since it was blockprinted. Suit heard on abduction of 2-year-old CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) The grandfather of a 2- year-old Casper girl who allegedly was abducted last October testified Monday in U.S.

District Court that the girl apparently was taken while she was riding her tricycle in front of his house. The girl's mother, Sandra Cordoba, 38, and Mrs. Cordoba's parents, Jerome and Ellen Waatti, last November brought the $3 million suit against Harold Lipset and his detective agency, Lipset Service Agency of San Francisco. The suit claims Mrs. Cordoba's former husband, Jaime Cordoba, hired the agency to abduct the child, Amanda.

The suit claims Lipset phoned Casper police Oct. 14 and said the child had been taken from Wyoming. Waatti testified that he and his wife, who had been babysitting the child, prepared to go to a grocery store on Oct. 14 when they noticed a parked car with three occupants near their home. When they returned from the store, he said, the car still was there.

He said he and his wife entered their home as Amanda was riding her tricycle in front of the house. He said he noticed soon afterward that she was missing. Waatti said he has had no contact with the child since the alleged abduction. Rapp was active in commuchaplain of American Legion a member of Order of EastMemorial Hospital Guild. at her home.
