father was wldOwer-mad love TO

rivalry in the matter, for neither knew

Intentions were serious. When they
became aware Of the fact. they had a
good laugh over it,
But the day came when girl came
between the Wicketts. She did not
move in their exclusive circle, for she
made her own living Her family had
been wealthy, but that was before her
time. Wicket senior forbade the
bans. The couple were married, and
the father and son became as strangers.
There was nothing to do but for
young Mrs. Wicket to retain her posi-
ton. Bob had 10 knowledge Of and
was not fitted for business. He tried
several subordinate positions and failed
at them ALL At last he grew desper-
ate and resolved on some congenlal

WAITER CHRISTIE BACK.
Automobile Driver Explains ms Defeat
"A Jugxler with Troubles.


Walter Christie. the automobiles. and his
shipmate. Lewis Strang. who we're tho
only Americans in the international race
at Dieppe. France. on July 2. tried to slip
into New York unobserved aboard the
White Star liner Teutonic. which arrived
yesterday. They boarded the ship at
Cherbourg and registered respectively as
J. Walters and p. Lewis. Purser Shepherd
recognized them and suggested before the
ship reached Quarantine that they might
avoid trouble by appearing under their
real names. They said that after their
crushing defeat they feared to look the
reporters in the face. The purser told
them the reporters would find EN- anyhow.
They did.
Mr.. Christie said the French didn't give
him a chance to familiarize himself with
the course. He made only one lap on II.
He said II was partly his own fault. as he
should have gone TO Dieppe months before.
The restriction Of a gasolene allowance to
hfty-four gallons for the curse of $40 miles
WAS something he never had heard of before.
He recalled that before the. Vanderbilt CUP
races here all the foreign autoists had a
chance TO practise on the course three
hours every morning up TO the day of the
race.
Shekls. the East Indian faker who will
appear AT hammerstein = roof garden, was
also a passenger on the Teutonic. He and
his wife. daughter and a white woman ser
want wanted to come first cabin. but when
he declared thstheintended to kill his chick
ems he had a coop full Of them aboard
ship and cook EN- according to the Mo-
hammedan custom as interpreted by the
press agent. Capt. Harry Smith said that 10
couldn't be done in the first cabin. So the
luggler. without levitating. went a deck
below.
On the first day out Capt. Smith found
Shekla in an alley Of the second cabin run
ming a sword through a big basket in which
he had locked his wife. A throng OF second
cabin passengers. much interested. blocked
the gangway. The captain said he would
not stand even for imitation wife murder
aboard his ship and made Shekla release
his wife. who wasn't hurt. Shekla levitated
TO his berth. somewhat put out.
On the trip the officers and crew OF the
Teutonic organised the Teutonic Athletic
Club, Capt. Smith president. which will
challenge the world aioat and ashore until
freezing weather comes. They will play
cricket tomorrow at Van Cortlandt Park
with the Bermuda. and when they get back
here on August IL they will have a picnic
at which they will ofer prizes TO any anna
tours who may liks TO take a fall out Of
them.

ALBANY, July 1s.-Although the Senate
has agreed to make concessions to the
Assembly in three OF the seven changes
proposed by the lower house to the original
Senator FULLY Reapportionment bill. Speaker
Wadsworth doesn't NOV what he will do.
we says he will not send for the Assembly
men until after the Judiciary Committee
makes it's report on the Direct Nompations
bill. The committee in TO meet tomorrow
afternoon and will then consider the different
propositions before il.
II the committee agrees on a bill Speaker
Wadsworth will telegraph for the Assembly
men to come back to Albany Monday night.
when the Direct Nominations bill will be
passed.
After that il is a question whether or
not the Assembly will pass a reapportion-
ment bill. The Republican Senators will
caucus on Monday night regardless Of the
action Of the Assembly, and will make the
changes to the FULLY bill that the Senators
believe remove every possible excuse the
Rssembly might have for not passing a
reapportionment bill.
Speaker Wadsworth said to-day that he
was opposed to the Legislature adjourniDg
without passing a reapportionment bill.
When asked II he would rather nave the
amended FULLY bill passed than no reappor-
tionment legislation. he refused to answer.
IL ia believed that the Speaker will not
accept any reapportionment plan that
places Livingston county with Steuben.
Speaker W~adsworth. though, wouldn't
like to have his old distric under the 1895
apportionment, which would result II the
Legislature sdiourns without passing a bill.
for then state Superintendent Of Public
Works Stevens would have a golden oppor-
tunity to crush more completely than ever

day we're advanced 10 third reading in the

NEW YORK LIFE POLICY.
President kingsley Outlines u In . Letter
to PolicyhOiders.

Darwin p. Kingsley. the newly elected
president OF the New York Life Insurance
Company. in an open letter to the policy
holders gives this as the plan OF his ad-
ministration
First. Strict economy.
Second. The widest. fairest and fullest
publicity.
Third. An administration which will aim
to continue the New York Life as a world
wide institution. utilizing the siren 9Th which
IL has already drawn from that condition.
and endes voring to hand on the same benefits
to future generations.
Fourth. Such an amount OF new business
under the law as we can secure while practis-
ing intelligent economy and enforcing the
idea that the interest OF the poncyholder il
paramount.
MIR. Kingsley gives il as his opinion that
the State OF New York has made an economic
mistake in putting an arbitrary limitation
upon the amount OF business which the
company ma do in a year
Il believe all such Legislation to be funda-
mentally unsound," says Mr.. Kingsley.
we ought in the interest Of the policy
holders and in order to carry out what
seems to me TO be the broadcast and the
safest and the soundes theory OF manage
ment to be permitted TO do what business
we can normally within the limit OF expenses
fixed by law. The great plant which now
exists. erected soundly and at considerable
cost. ought 10 DE tuIiy utllZeu IN Oruer 10

lessening of activities then that ought 10

THE FISHERIES DISPUTE.
suggestion Made That II he Transferred
to the Hague Tribunal.

WASHINGTON, July Is.-The suggestion
has been made that the Newfoundland
fisheries dispute might be transferred TO the
Hague tribunal for settlement, but officially
according to the State Department. no
action has been aiken in this direction. The
United States might not object TO such a
procedure, but il Is understood that Great
Britain is not favorable to such a plan.
The modus vivendi under which Ameri-
can fishermen were permitted, against
the objection Of the Newfoundland men,
to pursue their vocation OF that island ex-
pired with the close Of the season. On
August | the new season opens, and I'M
less il il renewed the situation may be-
somewhat embarrassing. az il il confusing
row.. IL is said at the State Department
that Ambassador Reid is conducting the
negotiations in London for a continuance
of the modus vivendi.
