HIDDEN IN BUSHES. Is
PUNCHED BY ESCORT.
Charley Rose Gave Himself Away When
Couple Started Tet-a-tete in Park.
Chadwick Got Very Angry.

Charles Rose, 20 years old, of 6 Gar
side street, was arrested in Branch
Brook Park last night by Park Police
man Waterman for "bushwhacking.
John Chadwick, of 213 Highland ave-
nue., was the real complainant in the
case, and he said that he and a young
woman were seated on a bench in the
park when they heard the bushes near
by being rustled. Chadwick said thai
he realized that some person was in
the bushes, seemingly intent on caves
dropping. He Immediately started for
the bushes, and as he did so he saw a
man run out of them. He said that
after catching the man he punched his
face good and hard.
Park Policeman Waterman said that
there was a gang of rowdies who
made it a business to getin the bushes
behind the seats when any one sits on
the benches, and then begin to rustic
the bushes, and that they were known
as "bushwhackers."
Judge Herr discharged Rose because
there was no evidence that he had done
anything wrong. Rose, however, felt
very sore about the face from the
blows that he had received from Chad
wick, who is something of a boxer and
a runner.

Clarence G.. Fay, assistant comptrol-
Ter of the Standard Oil Company. was
recalled to the stand and questioned
about the income On the c. NJ. Pratt
Investment Company. Mr.. Fay said
that the income from this source in
1902 was $137, 400 and that the money
was paid over to the Standard Oil
Company by c. NJ. Pratt, who yester-
day testified that ne held stock of the
Waters-Pierce Oil Company of Texas

the Standard Company held the stock
of the c. M. Pratt Investment Com
pany In lieu of the Waters-Pierce Oil
Company stocks.
Mr.. Fay testified that between 1899
and 1906 the stock of the Waters-Pierce
Oil Company did not appear upon the
books of the Standard Oil Company of
New Jersey as an asset. In 1899 the
latter company's balance sheet showed
ownership of 2,747 shares of the Waters
Pierce stock valued at $3.067.s 1892.
Mr.. Fay was questioned about GER
tain Central Trust Company certificates
held by the Standard Oil Company be-
tween 1899 and 1904. A statement from
the company showed that stock of the
National Storage Company was sold in
exchange for Lehigh Valley Railroad
bonds and deposited with the Central
Trust Company, which issued certif-
Gates in exchange. In 1905 these Cen
trail Trust certificates were exchanged

trustees during the period Of years be-
tween 1882 and 1899. Mr.. Fay said he
hunted last night and found several Stand
ard OIL trust ledgers, the contents OF
which he had not examined and did not
know what they contained. He said he
had not brought the ledgers with him.
Asked IL he had seen any balance sheets OF
the subsidiary companies of the Stand
ard Oil trust, prior to 1898, Mr.. Fay re-
piled that he had not.
Mr.. Fay said the company only kept the
balance sheets of recent date, and that he
had made no search for the balance sheets
previous to 1899. Mr.. Fay testified that
he had seen no balance sheets of the Wa
ters-Pierce OIL Company. Tfdewater Oil
Company and Tidewatef Pipe Company.
why is 1t that your office, which has
information of other companies. has no
information of the Waters-Pierce oil Com
pany?' asked Mr.. Kellogg.
IT do not know replied Mr.. Fay.
Mr.. Kellogg made detailed inquiry where
the incomes of various subsidiary COM
panies went. Mr.. Fay said that unless the
incomes of these companies were paid di-
rect to the Standard Oil Company of New
Jersey he would have no knowledge of the
matter.
Mr.. Fay said the statements of the
Standard oil Company of New jersey he
had received did not contain the exhibits
of accounts receivable and bills receivable.

men in Syracuse to o~ficiate at the
wedding. The ministers there refused
on account of the fact that Mr.. Brokaw
came under the ecclesiastica interdic-
ton as to divorced persons. his first
wife, Corolie C. Coudert, niece of the
late Frederic r. Coudert, the eminent
lawyer, having obtained a separation
from him in 1898, in Providence, r. l..
on allegations of cruelty and non-sup-
port.
During these fruitless negotiations
for the wedding Miss Blair was visit
ing in New York city at the home of
her close friend, Miss Miriam Denison.
Finally, when hope of having a church
or clerical marriage had beer almost
abandoned, the Rev. DR.. George B..
Spalding, a prominent Presbyterian
clergyman of Syracuse, consented to
perform the ceremony. Accordingly
Mr.. Brokaw returned to Chittenango
with Miss Blair, and there, at the
splendid villa of the Blairs, they were
united by DR.. Spalding on Monday.
Before congratulations began to reach
Chittenango Mr.. Brokaw and his wife
had slipped away. 1t is said at the
Blair home at Chittsnango, the couple
have gone to Canada for a brief honey
moon, after which they will return to
New York and sail thence at once for
Europe without passing any time at
Mr.. Brokaw's fine estate on Long
Island.

plished. She is fond of music and ath-

Mr.. Brokaw came into considerable
notoriety in 1903. when Mrs. Katharine
Poillon sued him for $3.50, 900 damages
for alleged reach of promise of mar
rIage. A compromise was effected.
In 1908 Brokaw's name was dragged
into the suit between George w. Led

IT'S a Relief from the Humidity-Fall
0ficially Begins This Week.

With only two or three days Of summer
left, according to the almanac, Old Sol
sent his rays down on Mother Earth yes
terday as seldom before during the torrid
months of July and August, the maximum
temperature for the day being 81 degrees.
which, with IS per cent humidity in the
air, made it exceedingly uncomfortable for
all who toiled. And there we're no gentle
breezes to cool the atmosphere and dis
count the humidity-not so you noticed
1t, at least.
However, there was a decided variance
In the temperature. Go degrees being the
lowest point reached. A year ago yester-
day was also a warm day, IS degrees
being h maximum, but the yari-
ance was even greater. the difference be-
ing 30 degrees. The day was clear and
the humidity was not so oppressive.
Relief from the toFrid rays came today,
however, and a quiet still rain set In
shortly before noon. Professor Weiner, Of
the local weather bureau, said he did not
know how long the rain would last, add
Ing that this is about the time for the
equfnoctial storms, the sum crQssikg the
equator about this. time.
