Mrs. H. E. Huntington, who figured as
the leading principal in the most per-
fectly arranged divorce in the history
of California society, arrived this
morning on the S. S Korea en- route
to japan, accompanied by her daugh-
ter, MISS NJ. p. Huntington. Mrs.
Huntington was the wife of the Trac-
ton magnate of California and who
was nephew of the late Coils p.
Huntington, head of the great Southern
Pacific railroad interests.
Mrs. Huntington was divorced I'm the
morning of last Tuesday, held re-
ception on board the Korea in the af-
ternoon and departed for the Orient.
She is going to Yokohama.
The San Francisco Chronicle had the
Following published the morning of
the departure of the vessel:
IF Mrs. Mary A. Huntington's plans
for today are carried out as she has
arranged tn m she will be divorced by
Presiding Judge Graham from her
husband, Henry Edwards Huntington,
at 9:4O o'clock. At II a. m. she will
hold a reception and at LOS p. m, ac-
unmarried daughter, Marian, she will
sail for Japan.
Everything has been arranged with
scrupulous nicely and there is very
prospect that the infelicty which has
existed between II. E. Huntington, the
railroad IA gnate, and his wife of
thirty y. ars will end i'm one Of the best
managed divorces Of California So
ciety.
I'm the complaint, which was filed
yesterday afternoon just before the
office of the County Clerk was closed
for the day, Mrs. Huntington alleges
desertion as the ground on which she
seeks divorce and states that the de-
sertion has continued since the year
1900. Although It was well known that
Henry Il. Huntington had spent the
greater part of the time in the south
for the last six years Will Mrs Hunt
ington had continued to reside at the
Jackson-street house i'm this city yet
the original cause of the estrangement
has always remained a mystery and
considerable surprise was expressed at
Mrs. Huntington's suit.
at was intended that the divorce
should be a very quiet one. Only the
INN hdiatc members of the family
were aware that the day had been
set, and every effort was made to
avoid publicity of the fact that Mrs.
Mary A. Huntington had brought suit
in the Superior Court agairs. the
nephew of Coils p. Huntington for
divorce and such other equitable relief
at the Court might see fit to grant.
Peter f. Dunno, who represented Mr..
Huntington, and w. c. Van Fleet,
who is Mrs. Huntington's legal ad-
wiser, were busy all of yesterday max

therefore to learn that the committee
had agreed unanimously to recommend
the measure favorably to the House.
II consider" said Mark P. Robinson,
that our mission was a success. The
indications were very favorable in
deed, for favorable action on our meas
ure. I believe that congress will grant
us the rebate measure, but under COM
promise conditions. The compromise
will not be I'm the amount but in the
period of time. Orig nally the request
was for twenty years, but the indica-
tions are that the time when the rebate
will be effective will be cut to FIVE
years. In fact some of the members Of
congress remf rked when we urged the
twenty-year period that it would be no
use granting the rebate for that per-
iod, for we would probably be a state
before the expiration of such period"
