NEW YORK, July Frank C.
Foote. chauffeur employed by James
N. Hill, son of J.. J. Hill, the capi-
talist Is still under arrest in connec-
tion with the death of an unidentified
woman killed by the Hill auto yester-
day in Greenwich avenue. Foote was
on his way to court to answer charges
OF speeding when the fatal accident
occurred.
When remanded to the coroner and
held in $4,000 bail the chauffeur ap-
pealed to his employer to furnish
bonds for him, but Mr.. Hill refused,
saying that he should leave the court
to deal with him, as he had taken out
the automobile without permission.
The machipe was moving very slowly
when it ran down the unknown vic
tim in front of a public school and
in full view of many pupils.
when bought the automobile and
employed Foote ten days ago I made
only two conditions with him." said
Mr.. Hill. "The first was that he should
never take the machine out of the gar
age without my permission. and tile
other was that he should never run at
fast speed in the city under any cir
cumstances. He violated both rules
within a few days.
Il hope the court will deal as Sc
verely as possible with him and will
make an example of him."

however. not so much on the apricot as

Entomologist Quale found that the
familiar 'resin compound' was not
only partially effective of the San Jose

case Of the brown apricot scale.
The old me-sulphur-salt" wash
Quale found to be the most effective
remedy for the San Jose scale, but of
little use for the brown apricot scale.

San Francisco Attorney Ordered to
Pay AIimony Of One Hundred
Dollars a Month


BY Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, July Mrs.
Charlotte e. Collins, the repudiated
and disowned wife of Attorney George
u. Collins last night proved her mar
rjage by ample documentary and oral
evidence, and Superior Judge Graham
made an order directing Collins to
pay her alimony at the rate of $1OO
4 month. The order Is not a final
one. 1t stands only pending the de-

ance. The proof consisted of the city
and county records and the sworn
testimony of Mrs. Collins herself,
William Newman. her brother, and
Florence Newman, her sister, the two
latter of whom were both at the we'd
ding.
Mrs. Collins testified that her hus-
band had called upon her and asked
her to deny that she was his wife.
The court now found: That plaintiff
and defendant intermarried May 15
1889. and ever since have been and are
husband and wife; that the issue of
said marriage Is three children, that
defendant willfully and without cause
deserted and abandoned plaintiff on
the 9Th of May, 1895.
Collins was not present.

SANTA FE SUED
BY GOVERNMENT
CONTEMPT PROCEEDINGS ARE
COMMENCED
VIOLATION OF INJUNCTION
Il Is Alleged That the Company Dis
obeyed Order ForbIddIna
the Giving Of
Rebates
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July 1.-Con-
tempt proceedings against the Atchison,
Topeka & Santa Fe Railway company,
charging that company with being
guilty Of the violation of an injunction
issued at Kansas City by Judge Phil
lips on March "a, 1902, restraining the
road from giving rebates, was filed in
the United States district court here to-
day at the instigation of Milton d.
Purdy Of Washington, D. c., assistant
attorney-general, who came here re-
Gently at the direction of the attorney
general to file the suit upon behalf of
the government.
Although Judge Phillips restraining
order, issued three years ago, was
directed against seven other railroad
companies besides the Atchison, Topeka
& Santa Fe the suit filed today is solely
against the latter road. The other rail-
roads enjoined previously by Judge
Phillips were the Chicago, Burlington
& Quincy, Chicago &c Alton. Missouri
Pacific, the Wabash Chicago, Milwau-
kee & st. Paul, Chicago Rock Island
& Pacific and the Chicago, Great Wes-
tern. similar order was issued by
Judge Grosscup in Chicago on March
rs, 1902, against six other roads.
The suit filed today at the instigation
of the federal government recites that
the Santa Fe railway up to the time
the Injunction was granted had been
engaged in the practice of granting un-
lawful rebates and preferential rates
pers on traffic in packing house prod
ucts, dressed meats, grain and the
products of grain, which were not
granted to the public generally, and
that the Santa Fe railroad had also
been granting unlawful rebates and fa-
cilities to certain other favored ship
pers on many other of the principal
commodities which constituted and
comprised the ordinary necessities OF
life.
The information, after noting the is
suance of the restraining order of
March "a 1902, says that between
March 2s, 1902. and November 81, 1904,
the Santa Fe railway company, and its
officers and agents unlawfully, will
fully and knowingly violated and dis
regarded the said restraining order
The information asserts specifically
that the Santa Fe favored the Colo
rado Fuel & Iron company in giving
rates on coal, saying it carried the
coal 'of said company "at less rate
than the rates named for such SER
vices in defendants published and es-
tablished schedules and granted and
paid rebates to said Colorado Fuel &
Iron company
The information asserts that the
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe railway
is in contempt ''for the wilful and re-
peated violations of said temporary
restraining order" and asks the fed
eral court to cite the company's of
flcials to appear in court and make
answer for such acts.
Judge Philips did not indicate today
what action he might take in the
matter. S-S

ALLEGED BRITISH OFFER OF ALI.
ANcE WITH FRANCE CAUSES =
POPULAR DISTRUST.
LARGER NAVY GENERALLY DEMANDED
RECENT EVENTS SILENCE OPPO.
SITIoN TO THE GOVERN.
- MENT's PROGRAMME.

Berlin, Oct. 16.-The, disclosures in
France of alleged British offers of alli-
ance against Germany are so thor
oughly believed here that the powerful
Naval league, with it's 100000 mem
bers and all the apparatus of agitation,
is already moving for a new naval pro.
gramme that shall further increase
Germany's defensive resources against
Great Britain. Popular distrust of
Great Britain has naturally swollen to
great proportions and the semi-oficial
denials in London can scarcely over
come the convictions now formed that
Germany had narrow escape from a
war in which, although she would have
been victorious on land, would have
resulted in her being crushed at sea
and damaged along the coast, with the
consequent destruction of her sea COM
merce. The events of the last four
months have silenced the opponents
of naval increase, except the So
cialists and Radicals. While time
and money beyond Germanys re-
sources would be necessary TO equal
Great Britain's present navy, not to
speak of her future building, yet the
feeling is that Germany must, for de-
fensive reasons, build as many more
ships as the country's finances will
bear. The government some months
ago decided to introduce in the reichs-
tag measure substituting large for
small cruisers in the authorized naval
T programme. Whether the German
government will increase the recon-
mendations beyond this or not is not
yet known Gcs ,!NAI ~ ! : L. ~.
