proved that she was something
more than a Spectator and her bus

after scores of shrewd men had
gone broke in the oil business. To-
day she is known as the most in

Recently 2 big oil interests ap-
pealed to her to sell them her
brains temporarily. A London, Eng
land, oil company asked her TO take
charge of their development work
at $1,000 a week, while an eastern
company offered her a tempting
sum to put its business on better
commercial footing. She wrote both
of these concerns that their offers
were very small compared to the
revenue she derives from her own
business.
Some months ago she sold all her
oil wells and nowd evotes herself
to buying and selling oil. Recently
she also established paint factory,

JEROME WILL LET BIG
INSURANCE CRAFTERS GO

"As a matter of fact, the men
principally concerned have been in
dicted, with Mccall, who is dead;
Richard A. McCurdy, whose state is
almost that of death, and Jas. w.
Alexander, who is out of his mind"
Jerome said that the investigation
of the insurance cases by the grand
jury would be completed next week
He would not make a direct state
ment, but intimated that while new
phases of the scandal were under
investigation now new men would
be indicted. He declared that the
trials of the men under indictment
would not be begun until October at
the earliest.
This is by far the most remark
able statement that has ever come
from an official of the district at
torney's Office since the insurance
investigation started. for in it the
district attorney practically admits
that he does not intend to put Nc
Curdy or Alexander upon the crimi-
nal rack that the principal figures
in the worlds greatest commercial
scandal will never wear stripes.

NEW YORK, June 15.-Declaring
that it has failed to stick, Mrs.
Louis G. Meyer, who got her hus-
band to sign an agreement that he
would conduct himself in manner
BETTING a husband and sever all
relations with Mrs. Katherine Fuller
Hardness, has had him arrested and
has served divorce papers on him.
Meyer, daZed at her action, was
dragged off to Jail by deputy sher-
if, declaring it piece of feminine
fickleness.
The fickleness is all on his part,
said Mrs Meyer, who says her
action was precipitated by Meyer
breaking away from the custody OF
the nurses she had put at his bed
side and making visits to Mrs.
Hardness, whom she declares to be
her rival for Meyers love. She
claims that he was planning to
elope Meyers bail Of $4,000, she
expects, will keep him from any
such step.
About two weeks ago Meyer, who
is a millionaire paving manufac-
turer, was spilled out of an auto
with Mrs. Hardness. He suffered
broken leg and the woman a
broken hip. Mrs. Meyer found him
fiat on his back in a hotel, and at
once took charge, incidentally get
ting him to sign the agreement, and
announced that she had reclaimed
him. 1t worked beautifully until
Meyers leg got well enough to sup
port his weight. Then he got rest
less.
1t seems that Mrs. Meyer used
generalship similar to that she dis
played when she took charge of her
husband after the accident. She
had her lawyer make the necessary
application for an order of arrest,
saw that Meyer was neatly dressed
when the officers came, and handed
him over to them with farewell
caress Then, when he got to Lud-

NEW YORK, June 15.-District
Attorney VIM. Travers Jerome, up
on whom rests the duty of bringing
to the bar of justice the criminal
millionaire heads of the insurance
companies exposed by the Hughes
investigation, was asked point
blank this question:
When, If ever. do you, as district
attorney, propose to get criminal
action in the cases of the heads of
the big New York insurance COM
panies, exposed by the Armstrong
legislative inquisition?
II was a startling question to the
district attorney, who for more than
a year and a half has been in pos
session of the well-known facts de-
duced by the now Gov. Hughes, and
whose failure to prosecute the in
surance thieves is becoming recog-
nized as one of the most fragrant
derilections of official duty in the
records of New York county.
This is how Jerome met the ques-
finn.
