divorce had not been formally entered
they were advised that in the eyes OF the
law they were still man and wife. APP
parently ignorant that their course was q
trifie irregular. the couple began house
keeping for the second time.
They lived happily together for twelve
months. when trouble again ensued. One
night Bartles packed up his valise and
went to Los Angeles. Mrs. Bartles i'm.
plored him to return, but in vain. Mrs.
Bartles has since been informed that the
divorce granted by Judge Finn was legal:
even if it was not entered in the judg-
ment roll. If that be so does her twelve
months residence with her ex-husband
constitute q legal marriage In the
absence of ceremony? In the light OF
many decisions in similar cases it would
appear that the couple were really mar
ried. for they had assumed martial rela-
tions and we're regarded as man and wife
to all the world. If this also be true, an
other suit for divorce NAV be filed.
Secretary McComb of the Humane So
ciety has written to Bartles at Los An

THE INSURANCE COMPACT
Underwriters In San Francisco Take Fina
Action

Underwriters In San Francisco Take Final
Action
SAN FRANCISCO. April 20. - The
board iof fire UNDERWRITERS Of the Pacific
coast met this morning to take final ac-
ton in regard to the course of procedure
necessitated by the continuance of war
fare against the compact by outside COM
panies. The result was not as predicted
i'll certain quarters in so far as the disco
luton of the compact Is concerned. All
that was done was to suspend rates in
California, except in cities wherever
there are local boards. This will affect
San Francisco.
The compact Of the leading insurance
states and territories. including Arizona,
Oregon. Washington. Idaho, Montana,
Utah and California. There has been
trouble experienced in keeping the under
writers together outside of this state, and
hence the war has been practically con-
tined to this city and Oakland.
The result of the ruling made today
will be to let the companies here thresh
the quarrel out among themselves until
they are tired of lighting. In so far as re-
insurance of policies is concerned, the
cut rate system has been pretty well
worked already for all it is worth. That
is, unless it may please some of the big
insurance companies 70 insure tne city
for nothing, which, Of course, they can
easily do II they say the word.
The heavier concerns in the business
are not much alarmed at the prospect,
and the policy outlined is one VIII ca will
prove more wearing on the smaller COM
pAnies than on their antagof lists.
No arrangement has been made for any
meeting of the board in the immed late
future but it is anticipated that before
long harmony will again prevail among
all concerned. sF

A Kick From Hutchison

Editor Herald In the interest of
Justice and on behalf of several hundred
people who were at great expense in the
way of time and money in preparing for
the parade of today, I want to make a
plain statement of the way in which sew
eral awards of premiums were made. 1
desire also to state that the conduct OF
several police officers was either ungentle-
manly or absolutely disgraceful.
In the distribution of the prizes the
judges had no system whatever. The
in a crowd before the judges and the al
legged judging began. Riders, judges and
spectators clamored and shouted. Ban
fiers were handed out without any knowl-
edge of the recipient or his class or of
anything else. Two or three different
no record of their names would be
taken.
One party of wise men, who were act
ing as judges, had more banners THAI
they knew what to do with, SO they gave
them out in jest and Unfortunately. A
was almost without decorations were jest
ingly awarded second-prize banner. I
went to at least dozen different judges
to get the names of prize winner rs. Only
one was able to give single name, In
one class the first three were awarded the
first three prizes before the other fifteen
or twenty were even considered; evident
ly on the principle of first come first
served. Why the hundreds of people
who went to great trouble and expense to
prepare for the parade and the $4,000 who
were there to witness it should not have
the satisfaction of seeing justice done in
the matter of awards is very difficult to
determine. All the judges no doubt in
tended to be fair and impartial. but they
should have used at least little system
and foresight in the matter. Confusion
and shame are brothers. Yours always,
EDWARD HUTCHINSON.

Unfortunately, however, the couple
realized soon after the honeymoon that
they wee not we'll mated. They had
many disagreements and frequent quar-

rupture in 1898. Mrs. Bartles charged
her husband with cruelty and pending
suit for divorce, she went to live with her
mother. .hfi es .isd
The suit was heard by Judge Finn. and
he, after hearing all the evidence, granted
Mrs. Bartles divorce. For some reason,
the decision of the court was not re-

clerk of The court, and the Judgment roll
bears no record of the decree. Meanwhile
