JAYS He LOVED

Extraordinary Bigamy of Million.
aire Banker KiIey Married
Because Wife Was Dying.

NEW YORK. March 90. - That
Thomas w. Kiley, millionaire bank
president and hardware dealer OF
Brooklyn. has for the past three years
kept two wives in separate establish
ments less than half II mile apart was
the amazing fact that has become
known here. Mr.. Kilcy in reply to
questions broke down and admitted
It all. He said he had no excuse 10
Offer save that he loved both womeT
andtthat he married the second only
WhenNhc felt sure his first and Legal
wife was about TO die.
Mr.. Kiley, who is sixty-three years
old, is president of the North Side
bank of Williamsburg and is reputed
to be worth several millions.
He said that he had known Mrs. Colt
from childhood and after her husband
died five years ago was on close terms
of friendship with her. In October.
1903, his wife was very i'll when he
was called to the national convention
of bankers in San Francisco. Mrs. Colt
accompanied him.
she did not intend to go all the
way" said Mr.. Kiley. when we left
Brooklyn my wife was not expected to
recover. On the way west | told Mrs.
Colt | wanted to marry her. She was
willing. We thought my wife would
be dead before our return to Brooklyn,
n | was suffering from a general
breakdown.
when we reached Hammond, Ind,
we were married under our true
names. That marriage cannot be de-
MED. We continued on to San Fran
cisco. l went TO the convention and
then took Mrs. Colt down to Los An
gcles. We spent a month there and
then returned east.
MY wife did not die. but grew m
what better. There was nothing we
could do except keep everything secret.

FIGHTS HARD AGAINST
PROMOTERS LIABILITY
Under Present Arrangement Courts
Have No Power to Assist Those
Who Have Been Wronged.

TRENTON. Mar. 22.-There was
another hearing Yesterday on Assem-
blyman Martins bill, house No. H..
providing for the repeal of the act Of
April 8, 1903, called The promoters
liability act.
Sheriff Frank Sommers of Essex
who distinguished himself in a speech
against the Prudential at the insur-
lnce hearing, made the principal plea
for the bill.
The act sought to be repealed. Mr.
Sommers said, limited the period dur
ing which an action may be begun or
behalf Of a corporation against a di
rector, officer, promoter or other
agent in making or retaining a secret
profit for years. The speaker held
that this discrimination in favor Of
promoters committing frauds was one
hat demanded a clean cut explana-
lion, in view of the trend of legisla-
ion in this state.
Sheriff Sommers explained fulll
The provisions of the present statute
Of limitations, which provides thai
the time an offender is out of the
state the statute shall not run in hi,
favor. Every statute of Limitation
which he knew of, Mr.. Sommers said
contained this provision. But the
}ct Mr.. Martin sought to repeal OF
aimed no such exception. The ne
tessity for such an exception in the
act, it was declared, was disclosed b!
he desperate attempt of the United
Gas Improvement Company. of Phil
ldelphia, to avoid the jurisdiction OF
New Jersey in the Groel case.
Sheriff Sommers then told how the
New Jersey courts of law have declar-
I'd that under the general act they
have no power to engraft on the slut
lite exceptions not contained therein
however negotiable the enforcement
Of the statute. without such excep,
ions. might be. Also, that a fraud.
llent concealment of a cause of ac-
ion does not stop a defendant from
setting up the bar of the statute OF
law.
On the other hand, the court of
.hancery has unqualifedly declared
hat it could not allow the bar of the
statute to prevail where it would fur
Their a manifest injustice, and that
where a compliments action is
grounded on a fraud which the de-
fendant has concealed until sufficient
time has run to enable him TO set up
he statute, the statutory period will
not be considered until the fraud is
discovered.
To a question by Mr.. Chaplin of the
committee, Mr.. Sommers said the
statute was 10 a criminal one at all
md was not TO punish the offenders.
but to provide for a suit TO recover
he amount made by wrongdoing.
Mr.. Sommers claimed the present
act was vicious in purpose and prin-
ciple, because at the time it was in
PRODUCED there was a suit. the institu-
lion of which was threatened. with
another such suit under considera-
ton. This d|isgraceful condition. il
was claimed. could not be met in any
way except in the repeal of the law.

CONSTITUTION
NOT GRANTED.
Russian Government Is En-.
trenched Against the People
Cars New Parliament.

ST. PETERSBURG, March 22.-The
cars imperial manifesto and ukases
which incorporate in the fundamental
law of the empire the provisions for a
national assembly in Russia, promised
in the manifesto last fall, are disap-
pointing in many respects. They con
stitute neither Il constitution nor n
bill Of rights for the Russian people.
They do create a popular assembly.
but the powers granted to it are so
hedged about with restrictions and
conditions that it will be rather a par
Lament in name than in fact.
Nevertheless by the terms of the
manifesto the emperor himself is pow
erless TO revoke what he has now
given. This constitutes the great vic
tory which the people have won. They
at last have an authoritative medium
through which they can make their
voice heard. and it is in this assembly
probably that the great historical
struggle against prerogative and privi-
lege will be fought out.
An examination of the documents
shows clearly that their purpose has
been to intrench the government at
every point against the assaults of the
people. The council of the empire. or
upper chamber. as ~reorganized pro.
vides for the election of only half the
members, and these are chosen by the
nobility, clergy. Zemstvos and com
mercial interests. so that with the
other half directly nominated by the
crown the government can always in
terpose a decision of the council as a
buffer between it and the direct repre-
sentatives of the people in the douma,
or lower house.
Enormous power is concentrated in
the hands of the presidents of each
house, only the president of the lower
house being elected.
All idea that the cabinet would be
responsible to parliament. which was
freely intimated after the publication
of the manifesto of last fall, is aban-
doned. Even the privilege of Interpret
lating the ministers turns out TO be
vague and perhaps ineffective. This
right Is specifically confined to inqui-
relating to alleged violations of
law by ministers or their subordinates.
Moreover. explanations can only be de
manded upon subjects directly under
consideration, and ministers. as in the
United States, can refuse 10 reply on
the ground that reasons of state pre-
them from so doing. \ minister
choosing TO reply to interpretations has
the right to demand the closing of the
doors and the exclusion of the public.
The members of the council of the
empire are elected for nine years and
the members of the lower house for
Ave years, but by imperial ukase when
the two houses are dissolved the en-
peror can order new elections.
