HER EYES OPENED.
Why JEANNE Young Delmas Married
the Alleged Baron Won Turkheim.

New York. June S.-The Journal and
Advertiser tomorrow will publish the
following:
T. JEANNE Young Delmas of San
Francisco, the nemesis of Dolphin a.
Delmas, the Craven counsel in the Fair
Will contest. is at the Gilsey House,
where for four days she has been
guarded by a San Francisco lawyer
and importuned to sign papers waving
all claims against the man whose name
she bears. She is registered as Mrs. j.
NJ Delmas, and Immediately under
meath is written, in the same hand,
III. w. Hutton"
Mr.. Hutton is the lawyer. He left
for the west last night. The incident
which made Mrs. Delmas famous the
country over was her marriage to one
Won Turkheim, alias Won Steinmetz,
who claimed 70 be a German baron.
but who turned out to be a Stillwell
agency detective.
On learning of her new husband
identity. she and the baron parted.
Where he is now she knows not. a
week ago last Monday she landed in
Montreal. Her face is turned in wrath
towards San Francisco. Her 3-year-ol
boy, Dolphin DeImas, jr., is with her.
She is bent on revenge and will stop at
nothing to get it.
During Hutton's stay here, she says,
he dunned at her continually to sign
the contract releasing Delmas, but she
absolutely refused.
1T was a shameful plot she said,
this tricking me into the marriage
with Turkheim, or whatever his name
is. Delmas knew that l knew the
Craven will was forged and who forged
it. He was afraid I'd go on the witness
stand. No matter what my testimony
might be. it would bring out the whole
story of my relations with him.
Finally he got out this warrant for me,
which was only for the purpose of driv-
ing me away. I wanted to leave town
and get rid of it all, and when Turk
helm asked me to marry him, l thought
that was good chance TO get away.
Il was baroness for a time and
royalty 1t was great while it lasted;
it must have cost Delmas at least
$4,000 If Deln y: wanted me away
during the Fair case, he need only have
asked me to go to Europe / would have
gone. 1t would have cost him less.
but he took his way and it involved
desperate measures. Turkheim got mad
because he did not get enough money,
and told me the whole story.
THE plan was to take me to China
on wedding trip and lose me. 1t
could have been done. But the voyage
was too long. So they decided on the
south of France. Turkheim was to put
me into an asylum, and once inside the
doors, that would have been the last
of me. l shall have my marriage to
Turkheim annulled and then 1 viii see
about Delmas. I have ample grounds
of complaint against Delmas-con-
spiracy and assault"
What are the conditions of the con-
tract Mr. Hutton rrro-pd Won 70 SierY1 -
They want me to take $50 a week
and drop the name of Delmas. never
set foot in California or New York,
bring up the child properly and relin-
quish my claims and the child's, and
dozen other things, can't tell them all.
Delmas intends to come here to prac-
tice"

.$S4,4s1 OF
RUIZ WIFE.
She Files Claim For s15o,ooo, the
Value of Her Husband.

Value of Her Husband.
Washington, June assistant Sec
rotary Day said today that the report
Of Consul-General Lee upon the result
OF the investigation made in Havana
in the Ruiz case had not yet been re-
ceived at the state department. Con-
sequently 1t was not possible to learn
whether the publications purporting to
be copies of the report were accurate.
Assuming, however, that the consul
generals conclusions are correctly set
forth-in brief that Ruiz died while in
jail in violation of mis- treaty rights
the question before the department of
the largest Importance is what shall
be the next step.
The wife of Ruiz has filed with the
department claim for SI50, 900 for the
death of her husband. The Spanish
contention has been that he was not
Killed and that he was not treated
harshly. General Lees inquiry is nm
derstood TO have failed to bring out the
truth on these points. but his state
ment on another, namely, that of his
confinement in violation of treaty
rights. appear to make the first two
points non-essential and TO leave the
case resting on the broad claim that
IN conhninS DR.. Ruiz for more than 70
hours without permitting him TO COM
municate with his friends or trying
him, Spanish officials in Cuba have as
sumed full responsibility for the re-
suits of that extra confinement. The
fact being established. that DR.. Ruiz
kept up his citizenship by registering
himself at American consulates in
Cuba from time to time as required
by regulations. is taken as an offset
against the claim that by continuous
residence in Cuba for nearly 20 years
he had Forfeited his rights as an
American citizen. Ii is surmised that
the next step in the case viii be the
of a claim against the
Spanish government in behalf of the
family of the victim of this Illegal i'm.

Foot in 1t.

Chicago. June S.-The investigation
of the alleged rate cutting on east
bound grain by means of export ship
ments. was continued today in the in

most interesting witness today was j.
Clark, general freight agent of the

Clark got along smoothly until the at
torney for the commission asked him

bound cars to the Nickel Plate line. Mr.
Clark admitted that there was an
agreement TO divide the east-bound
business from Chicago.
When asked if he had ever contracted
for traffic below the central freight as
ISOLATION rates. Mr.. Clark answered
that he had. He denied, however hav-
ing had any business relations with Ar
mOur, COunselman and other grain
shippers and asserted that ne had not
given any preferences to any of them.
