The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1904-03-01

Oakland, Feb. 29.-To the charge
made by Leona Bonne, Chicago ira
peze performer, against William L. d.
Carey, the wealthy Manxman, that he
proposed marriage to her in 1901 and
then married another, the defendant
today entered general denial.
A few days ago Miss Bonne began
a suit for 100000 damages, which she
asked as balm for her blighted affec-
tions and compensation for the wrong
done her. Not having any knowledge
to the contrary, Carey asserts for all
he knows that she is married woman,
He denies that he deceived her or in
duced the fair performer on the bars
10 promise to marry him.
Carey in his answer admits that he
was married man during a part OF
the time he knew her, but says that
he was divorced in Chicago on March
4, 1901. He denies that Miss Bonne
confided in his alleged promise to
marry her and having no knowledge
on the subject denies that she has re-
mained sole and unmarried or that she
would now be ready and willing TO
marry him were he not already married
to another.
Carey admits that he has some
means but modesty eonstrains him
from admitting that he is worth as
much as quarter of million dollars,
as alleged in the complaint. and says
his fortune does not exceed 100000.
He asserts, however, that the plain
tiff has not been damaged in the
slightest by her association or lack of
association with him and that she is
not entitled to any of his money, and
as a clineher pleads that all of her
claims are barred by the statute of
Carey says that he is the son Of
Colonel Henry Carey, a British Off

WOMEN IN COURT FOR
GOSSIPING TOO MUCH
Young Man Accuses Her of Circulating
Stories That Cause Sweetheart to
Break Engagement With Him.

summons for Mrs. Hartman's ap-
pearance today. Kettner said he
learned thai Mrs. Hartman had told
friends of his that he did not earn his
living honestly. 1t was this gossip.
Kettner alleged, that caused Mfss
Frank to break her engagement.
This morning when the case was
called Mrs. Hartman was present, but
Kettner did not appear. 1t was ex-
planned to the magistrate that the
young mans sweetheart had become
convinced of his honesty and had con-
sented to have the marriage take place
at the late originally agreed upon. He
had no object, therefore, in pressing
the charge against Mrs. Hartman. The
latter denied circulating stories about
Kettner, and said she considered him
a most estimable young man. She was
discharged.

New York, Feb. 29.-Mrs. Frederick
Hartman, the wife of an eastern dis
trict business man, living at 134 Gra-
ham avenue, was in the Manhattan
avenue court this morning charged with
telling stories that not only reflected
on the character of Felix Kettner, a
salesman, OF 625 Park avenue, but also
caused Miss Annie Frank, of 1853 Man
haitian avenue, to break her engage
ment with him. The couple were to
be married early in March, but a few
days ago the young woman informed
Kettner that she could not become his
wife. on being pressed for reason
for her sudden change, Miss Frank said
that the stories in circulation about
him had caused her love to wane.
Kettner Immediately began an inves-
tigation and as a result of his inquiries
he went to the court yesterday and got

Court DEGREES That Restaurant Keeper
Cannot Stop officers.


San Francisco. Feb. 29.-The police
Of san Francisco have perfect right
TO raid the Hotel Nymphia, al 739 Pa
eInc street. even II they have TO enter
the place through the restaurant kept
by one vlncento Lucclch, who since
January lG last has, by the aid OF the
Injunction law. been endeavoring TO
prevent the officers from e9tering the
resort. Judge Hebbard, in whose court
the injunction proceedings have been
pending, decided yesterday that the
restaurant was only n blind. that un-
less the dens IN the rear were allowed
TO remain open its proprietor would be
his own best customer. and that there
fore & was maintained simply to cover
the entrance and exit Of those who oc-
cupied the dens and visitors to the
place. In accordance with this deci-
sion he dissolved the order temporar-
lily restraining the police from raiding
the place, and denied the motion Of
Luccich's attorneys to make the in
junction permanent.
Judge Hebbard decided the matter
from the bench at the close Of an ar
gument by the attorneys for the police.

IMPORTANT LAND CASE.
Action Brought by Tacoma Man to
Compel Observance of Repeal Act.

NShS' S'SN9fA ~ 'N~NN1 ''-'
Compel Observance Of Repeal Act.
olympia, Feb. 80. B. f. Houston
Of Tacoma, has begun an action in the
supreme court to obtain a ruling on
the law Of 1901. which requires that
the states timber shall be sold separate
from the land and removed within five
years after sale. The land Office has
been proceeding on the theory that the
meaning of the law Is that land cannot
be sold until the timber has been sold
and removed.
The action is in the form of an appli-
cation for writ of mandamus to COM
pei the commissioner of public lands to
offer for sale a tract of land and TIM
Der in Pierce county. 1t is said that
the principal contention will be that
the law of 1908 repeals by implication
the act complained Of. The action is
OF great Importance to the lumber In
dustry of the state.
The law was framed in the interests
of small timber buyers and has been
successful in keeping out the compe-
titlon of persons who buy timber land,
expecting to hold it for long period.
1t is said to have had bearing on the
price Of timber.

WEEKLY MARKET REVIEW.
By VIM. T. williams.


There was fair activity in cotton
during the past week, but the general
pressure was largely on the selling
side. Favorable crop reports and in
creasing dullness in the spot demand
and dry goods trade were too much
for the bulls The net result is that
the summer months have got below
lie, having lost fully INC during the
week. New crop months are about
ac lower.
There can be no doubt that there
has been a striking Improvement in
the condition Of the crop since June
l. AS the bureau report will only
reckon up to June rs, great gain in
the official condition to be announced
on July 5 can be regarded as almost
assured. But that will be very far
from giving assurance of a notably
heavy YIELD by that time the crop
will be hardly entering upon its criti-
cal stage. Everything depends upon
the weather and other influences dur
ing July and August, and then after
that, upon the earliness on .ateness OF
frost.
Therefore, 1t seems dangerous to
venture too deeply on the short side
thus early. True, II the crop In Oc-

BANKER CLEws' VIEWS.
The Financial Outlook As Seen From
Wall Street.


New York, June 1S.-Though deal
ings on the Stock Exchange are linn
tied, the market displays strength
of undertone that promises we'll for
the future, provided no untoward
events intervene during the next two
months. The chief source of strength
at present is a satisfactory, monetary
situation, funds being plentiful enough
to avoid any anxiety concerning crop
demands when they begin. The next
reason for hopefulness is the crop out
look, which is satisfactory as a whole
in spite of backwardness. Reports of
business reaction are frequent and are
unfortunately confirmed by current re-
ports of railraod earnings and other
evidences of contraction; but Wall
street turns a comparatively deaf ear
to such arguments, and replies that
all such conditions were discontinued
long ago by the shrinkage in security
values and that the time is now ripe
for anticipating better things.
One significant demonstration of con-
hdence is the quick absorption of re-
cent bond issues. These have been
numerous and large, but the prompt
ness with which they have been taken
and their absolute failure to depress
the stock market reveal an underly-
ing strength that is both surprising
and gratifying.
A rather unsatisfactory feature of
cur foreign trade movement was de-
crease of SIS, 100000 in May exports,
due to a shrinkage of $S,0O0,0O0 in
wheat, $3,000,000 in cotton and $780,
900 in corn. Our exports of manufac-
lures and minerals are, however, in
creasing, and If the present downward
tendency of commodity prices continues
the shrinkage in exports will be only a
temporary affair.
Our credit abroad continues good, and
gold shipments appear to have ceased
for the present, Europe having salts
field ats immediate wants. What eff
feet the war will have upon the gold
movement remains to be seen, this and
the increasing supply of loanable funds
being the chief inducements to gold
shipments.

the prospects are not for a very large
American crop, and the prolongation
of the war should exert more influence
after a while in favor of better prices.
Provisions were also rather quiet,
but ruled generally firmer. although
an early advance was mostly lost, and
closing prices show only unimportant
gains. The late easier feeling is said
to be due to sales on profit taking, and
furnishes a favorable opportunity for
buying. Reports from leading West
ern shippers say hogs are getting
scarce in the country

Manchester. June 19.-There was no
lack last week in the demand for cloth
at figures that generally were I'M
workable. though there were isolated
instances of moderate lines being sold.
Most buyers. however. are waiting
for a lower price of cotton. There was
considerable demand from China for
shifting and bleaching cloths, largely
for autumn delivery.
India bought small quantities. as
likewise did South America and the Le-
want. to keep up their assortments.
Home and American yarns were easier
and the turnover was moderate. Pro-
ducers in some directions were anxious
for new business in extended delivery.
A notable feature of the week was
revival in the demand for yarn from
China.
