The "change OF life" is
the most critical period

EQUAL SUFFRAGE
IN AUSTRIA

s VIENNA, Dec. 1.-The lower house
of Parliament passed this evening the
second and third readings of the new
universal suffrage bill, which grants an
equal franchise to every male Austrian
over "a years of age who is able to
read and write and has been a resi-
dent for at least a year of the place
where an election is held. This ends
the fight for universal suffrage inaugu-
rated year ago by the Social Demo-
Gratis.
The Radical Germans made noisy
protest against the bill. while the So
cialists cheered loudly. The Radicals
left the chamber before the announce
ment.
In future the lower house of Parlia-
ment will consist of sic members, of
which there will be 2ss Germans, 1o7
Czechs. 81 Poles. SO Ruthenians. "a
S1avonians.s1s Sebro- Croatians. 10 ItaI-
ians and 5 Roumanians
Universal suffrage deprives the great
landed proprietors and chambers of
commerce of special privileges. The
chief difficulty to be overcome was how
to distribute the mandates among the
various Austrian nationalities. and
the key was found finally by mutual
concessions between the Germans and
Czechs in Bohemia. 1t has been ar
ranged that Bohemia shall elect 15G
Deputies. of whom ifty-fve shall be
Germans.
The upper house is not inclined to
accept the bill. Rejection of the bill
by the upper house will mean a re-
newell of the bitter racial fight. Gov
eminent circles. however. hope to over
come resistance to the measure there.

the contractor. who is charged with
fraud in connection with the purchase
of grain for famine relief. and his
agent. Sotskich. have arrived here to
testify before the Investigating com
mittee. Assistant Minister of the In
terror Gurko, who IS accused OF com
plicity with Lidval. has at his own
request been relieved of his duties OF
director of supplies to the famine dis
tricts.
Lidval will face the investiga ton in
a defiant mood. He declared tonight
that 1000 carloads of grain had already
been delivered. valued at over 100000.
the amount advanced to him. The de-
lay in supplying the remainder, he
said. was due to the inefficiency of
railroad arran gements.

MINER PROMISES
STRANGE TALE
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.
NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-"While I have
heard only reports to the effect that it
is my wifes intention to institute di
vorce proceedings, have no hesitancy
in saying the real story of my mar
rage to Mrs. Charles T. Yerkes never
has been told. and when the facts are
told they will prove of startling char
acter, different in every way from the
general opinion now held by the pub
lic."
Wilson Miner made this statement
today and then declared in emphatic
terms that coercion had been employed
to keep his wife from coming to him.
while he has received no commune
cation from Chicago to indicate that
legal action has been taken by his
wife. Miner says he will contest the
suit in every possible way. To his
friends he has declared on several oc-
casions that revelations must come if n
suit is brought and that the entire as
pect of the marriage will be changed.
Mrs Miner has been deceived by
advisers" added Miner. Should the
persons who have her in custody be-
gin battle my friends all know 1 am
quite able to defend my name and posi-
ton If they want fight. these law
yers in Chicago. they will certainly
have ample opportunity. Misconstrue-
ton time and again has been put upon
my motives There is nothing for me
to do but wait.
Miner said that so closely had a
legal web been woven around his wife,
and SO greatly had she been influenced
against him that it amounted 60 hyp-
notism. He declared that Mrs. Miz-
ner would jump through window to
see him.
Miner has told one of his friends
that when the financial issues involved
are made public it will be seen that
Mrs Miner is penniless. He made the
declaration without a show of anger
and expressed the utmost sympathy
with his wife, concluding with the re-
mark: When they have stripped her
of her possessions. they will hand her
back to me-

One Halls Victim, and as

Fells Him With a Billy
COMMIT CRIMES
THROUGHOUT CITY
Police Have a Description
of Men and Hope to Cap
ture Them in Short Time

Three mysterious hold-up men are
puzzling the police by their systematic
method of attacking their victims. In
two cases especially have these. three
man used almost identically the same
method. Their latest crime was COM
mitted at $50 o'clock last night. when
they attacked and robbed John Barbou
at Lyon and Jackson streets.
The method used by the three mys-
FERROUS robbers is to appear suddenly
near their victim in some quiet place.
Then one will run forward and hail
the unsuspecting person, who will in
variably stop to see what is wanted.
The man runs directly up to the person
to be robbed and strikes him on the
head with some heavy instrument the
exact nature of which is not yet
known.
Barbou, who is a peddler of tomales
on the streets, was walking along in
his usual way last night when the
three men appeared and one hailed him.
He had no suspicious and allowed his
that the blow was struck before he
understood what was planned. He was
found running down Lyon street little
later by Policeman H. E. Smith, His
head was covered with blood, and in
broken English he explained that he
had been knocked down and robbed of
81 in cash.
few evenings ago linotype oper-
ator from a large downtown estab-
lishment was passing along New Mont
gomery street when three men came
out of the ruins of the Palace Hotel,
directly in his rear. One of them ran
forward and hailed the operator. who
seeing the men stop. paused to see
what was wanted. Before he could
realize that any harm was intended
him he was struck on the head with
a heavy instrument.
The robbers in that case, however.
were scared away at the moment they
were prepared to take the injured
mans money by the sudden appear
ance of stranger on the scene. and
nothing more was heard of them until
last night
From the actions Of the men 1t is
evident that the three are together for
the purpose of protecting each other
and to disarm their victims of sus-
pfcion. That in each case the same
men are at work is made evident by
their strict adherence to their general
plan of attack.
The police have determined to ap-
prehend the three mysterious holdup
men, and will carefully watch men of
suspicious character going about the
streets together. The police have a
fair description of the men, furnished
by the victims of the assaults.
