Mrs. r. Machacek Who Deserted
Her Husband for Another Met
Death in Frisco Quake
DAUGHTER DIES WITH MOT HER
Former Husband is Advised of Fate OF
Faithless Wife Weeks After the
Horror Fricdeck not With
Woman ut San Francisco

Believers in misdeeds will see an
awful lesson in the death of Mrs.
Frank Machacek, the details Of which
have just been received in Kenosha.
The woman died in the San Francisco
earthquake and after weeks of wait
ing to learn of her fate, her former
friends in Kenosha have received
letters from the Western city stating
that both Mrs. Machacek and her
eleven year old daughter Ada Mach
acek met death in the earthquake.
The sensational elopement of Mrs.
Machacek from Kenosha is still fresh
in the minds of many of the people of
the city and the announcement of her
tragic death has caused a profound
sensation among these people.
More than six months ago war
rant was issued for the arrest Of the
woman charging her with a serious
statutory crime, but the warrant still
remains in the hands of the police of
the city and the woman has answered
all charges against her lbefore a
higher tribunal.
Mrs. Machacek was formerly the
wife of Frank Ma chacek, one of the
foremen at the Allen tannery, but
many months ago she left her home in
company with Carl Friedeck another
foreman of the tannery. At the time
the couple left Kenosha, Mrs. Mach
acek was alleged to have sold the
household goods belonging to her
husband and she LETT with the money
received from this sale. She took
with her Ada, the daughter of the
couple.
Friedeck sent back word that the
clipping pair were going to German
to live and that they would not re-
turn, but d few months later it was
learned that the couple were living !.
San Francisco. Machacek had friend )
in the Western city and these poop :
advised him of the actions of Friedeck
and his former wife. Several months
ago Machacek appealed to the circuit
court for divorce and the decree was
granted and he was awarded the
custody of the daughter. Since that
time the father had been laying plans
to secure the daughter, and the letter
announcing her death as we'll as that
of her mother came as great sorrow
to him.
The ending of the romance Of Mrs.
Machacek was sad one, for it is
learned that Friedeck had deserted
the woman several months ago and
that his whereabouts are now un-
known to the people in San Francisco
After she had been deserted by Eric
deck, Mrs. Machacek took her daugh-
ter and went to live in lodging
house in one of the congested dis
tricts of San Francisco, and when the
earthquake struck the city this house
was one Of the first to fall. The re-
mains of the woman and her daughter
were found buried under debris of the
fallen house. Taey were buried at
San Francisco by the government
officials.
The warrant for the arrest of Erie
deck is still in the hands Of the chic
of police and if he is located, an effort
viii be made to force him to return TO
Kenosha to stand trial on a charge of
abandoning his wife and children, as
well as on a charge of adultery.

MONDAY. NOV 20. 1908.

Those who have looked forward to immediate and immense activity from the interstate commerce commission in turning the railroads of the coun- try upside down, have been disap- pointed up to date and will continu
 to be disappointed for some time to come. The commission has not been able to touch a single rate since the rate bill was passed and the commits sion enlarged. There has been a flood of other work, the interpreta- tion of new rate rules, and the prose- cution of various inquiries into coal, oil, grain and what not, that have prevented them from giving any at tention so far to actual rate making. The grain elevator investigation or which the commission is now engaged promises to keep it employed for sev- eral months, and there is an immense amount of the coal and oil field yet to be covered without trenching on a similar investigation that is now being carried on by the bureau of corporations.

STRIKE RIOT IN HAMILTON.
Soldiers and Police In Battle Witt
 Mob Of Anxry Street Car Men

Soldiers and Police In Battle With
 Mob of Angry Street Car Men.
 HAMILTON. Ont, Nov. 28.-Scores of persons were injured in collisions between rioters and the police and sol diers here during the night. Several street cars were demolished by the striking street car men and their sym pathizers
 Sheriff Middleton was notified by the mayor and read the riot act, which call ed on the mob to disperse, and made every ablebodied citizen amenable to police duty. He notified Captain Ogil- vie that the aid of troops was neces- sary to maintain order
 The. streets were strewn with debris from the broken cars when the militia, infantry and cavalry charged the crowds with fixed bayonets and drawn swords.
 Never in Hamilton's history were such scenes of disorder and lawlessness seen as were enacted on the principal streets of the city. Scores of rioters, sympathizers with the striking street car men, felt the weight of policemen's night sticks and the edges of the sol diers' swords in desperate conflicts in James and King streets. At late hour street cars were running at intervals under heavy guard, but they carried no passengers and continued to be targets for fusillades of stones and bricks from side streets and alleyways.

 He has travelled thousands of miles by sea. crossed the narrow strip of land which separates the Atlantic and Pacific where the Americas meet, in spected the wCyk being done on the great isthmian canal and incidentally shattefed the tradition that an Ameri- can president must not during his term of office visit any land other than his own.

 TOULON. France, Nov. 28.-The tor pedo schoolship Algesiras. stationed i'll this harbor, was totally destroyed by fire at a late hour last night There were 800 men on board when the fire broke out
 The alarm was given by the firing of cannon in the harbor. The people hur- riedly left the cafes and theaters and rushed to the docks, whence they could see the Algesiras. a mass of flames in the harbor The burning vessel stood out brilliantly in the encircling dark ness, and there was terrible anxiety concerning the fate of the 500 men on board until the authorities announced that everybody had been taken of in boats and saved with the exception of three men. These did not answer the roll call, and it is presumed they were burned to death.
 The entire garrison was called out to render aid.

r For the first time in the history of the country since the negro has had vote, that vote has been pretty well split up. and there promises to be an interesting time in the next election if the excitement should last that
 long, over the support that Secre-
 tary Taft has won among the negro
 element through holding up, for a
 time at least, the presidents order
 discharging three companies of the
 Twenty-f1fth infantry. It is quite
 possible, like Kipling's "banderlog,
 the colored voters will have forgotten
 all about the incident by the time
 the next campaign comes around. But
 there is the making of fine political
 row in the situation were it not
 known that the president and Secre-
 tary Taft are such close personal
 friends. In this connection it may
 be interesting to quote the views of New York politician who knows both President Roosevelt and Secre- tary Taft very well. The discussion had turned on the perennial question
 of third term, and he had this to. say in the matter: You may talk all you want about a third term for
 President Roosevelt, but happen to know that he does not want it, that he has nominated Secretary Taft as his political heir, and that when he comes back to Washington it will be as senator from the state of New
 York. If you only stop to think sev- en years and a half in the White house is about enough for any man, even for such a glutton for work as the president. There Is more mental and physical strain involved in the job than any ordinary man can hold up under. The position of senator, on the other hand. is comparatively restful and immensely powerful when there is big man holding down the job. The president would have the excellent precedents of Adams and of Johnson in coming back to con- gress after occupying the White house, and there is not the slightest doubt that he not only could be senator from New York. but could remain such for twenty years If he so desired. I am about as certain as though he had told me that he looks upon Secretary Taft as his suc- eessor. and you are much more likely to see him senator from New York after his term in the White house i finished than either as president of Harvard university or president of the United States for a third term"
