WRIT IS GRANTED
STANDARD OIL COMPANY
TAKES ACTION.
Action Delayed on Writ of supersedeas
Until Bond Is Determined.

CHICAGO, Aug. 9.-The attorneys
for the Standard Oil Company filed the
eompanys assignment of errors in the
United States District Court today.
The attorneys went before Judge
Grosscup, in the United States Circuit
Court of Appeals, and made application
for an appeal, a writ of error and SUI
persedas.
They contended that the supersedas
should be granted upon a bond no
larger than sufficient to cover the
costs. 1t was claimed by the govern
ment, however. that the bond should
be fixed at s29, 100000, the amount Of
the fine imposed by Judge Lands. in
order to secure the government pend
ing a stay of execution in the judg-
ment. The assignment of error con-
tained 116 citations in which Judge
Lands is said to have erred in his
decisions during the trial.
The writ of supersedas sought was
not granted. but Judge Grosscup al
lowed the writ of error Action was
delayed on the writ of supersedas
pending the determination of the
amount of the bond the company is
required to file. The attorneys for the

EN-YEAR-OLD
HERO SAVES
WEE SISTER
But for Louis, Mildred
Frank Would Have Been
Drowned.

Mildred Frank, the 5-year-old daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. John L. Frank
of 154 Verona avenue. whose parents
are spending their vacation at the
Madison Park Rod and Gun clubhouse,
Sterling Forest, Greenwood Lake, came
very near losing her life yesterday
by drowning, and that she Is alive to-
day is due entirely to her 10year-old
brother Louis, who caught the child
by the ear after she had gone down
once and held her In this manner until
the arrival of their father, who was
sitting on the piazza of the clubhouse
at the time.
The accident occurred near the dock
in front of the clubhouse. The children
had been playing in boat, which was
tied to the dock, when little Mildred
attempted to get out. Louis offered
his help, but in stepping from the boat
she fell into the water. The water is
about ten feet deep at that point.
Louis. seeing her peril, waited for her
to appear on the surface. and when she
did the 10-year-old made one frantic grab
for his little sister. He prevented her from
going down the second and probably for
the last time and then called to his father.
The latter. when he heard the cries of
his son. rushed to the dock and, getting
into the boat, lifted the child out of the
water and carried her to the clubhouse.
For some time after the little girl was
rescued she was speechless, due princi-
pally to the shock. She soon recovered
her speech, however and was ready TO go
boating again. But her parents have in
formed her she can no longer play near
the water unless they are with her.

T WO SALARY
VETOES BY
MAYOR
Calls 1t Bad Precedent for
Council to Give Increase
Granted Norris.

Mayor Haussling today. vetoed the ac-
tion of Common Council in raising the
salaries of two city employees. Com
mon Council, at its last meeting, pass
ed a resolution raising the salary of John
B. Morris. secretary of the Assessment
Commissioners. from $2,10O to $1,000. and
explaining his veto to the raise. the Mayor
stated that he took this action because he
thought 1t would be establishing dam
gerous precedent to raise the salary of
any city employee $500 at a jump.
As further reason for his veto, the
Mayor stated that the tax ordinance would
not warrant a raise of that amount His
communication further stated that Secre-
tary Morris was a good worker. and that
he would entertain proposition to make
his salary $500 a year.
In the case of John Dwyer, clerk of the
overseer of the poor. whom the Common
Council raised from $1,000 to $500, the
Mayor stated that at present Dwyer was
receiving as much as the assistant over
seer who has been in the employ Of the
city for many years, while Dwyer has
been clerk only since February. and con-
sequently he could not countenance the
proposed increase in his salary.
The raising by Common Council of the
salary Of August J. Chaumbach, who has
recently been made assistant cashier in the
tax office, was approved by the Mayor
Chaumbach's salary was raised from 1850
to $500.

MAY TEAR IT DOWN
POSSIBLE SETBACK FOR
REAL ESTATE MEN.
Complaint Made That Building E. E.
Bond Is Putting Up Violates
Building Regulations.

An investigation will be started at once
to ascertain definitely whether the new
fve-story brick building being erected at
191 Broad street for y. u. Bond, of the
real estate firm Of p. E. Bond e. Co. is
being built beyond the front building line.
Complaint has been made to the city
authorities, including Counsel James R.
Nugent. The latter told an EVENING
STAR reporter today that If the building
extended over the line 1t would have to
come down and the owners would have
10 rebuild the structure In compliance
with the building code
The building is said to stand out four
teen Inches. Architect Thomas Cressey,
who has charge of the work on the build
ing. admitted today that the structure
was over the line. He claimed, however,
that II is no further out than adjoining
buildings. The structure is the second on
the west side of Broad street, south of
Market street Neither Mr. Bond nor Ar
chitect Cressey seem to take the complaint
seriously. Agens refused to say anything,
and Architect Cressey contented himself
with saying that he was not the only
violator.
Sgfried Lesehziner, of Leschziner & Co,
says he intends to fight the case, stating
that he was ready to go to Chaneery Court
TO get an Injunction If the city authorities
did not take any action.
This action is understood to be the first
shot in battle for a proper regulation OF
building In this city.

SAYS SEERESS
CHEATED HIM
OF FORTUNE
SOOthSayer Influenced Dying
Mother and Succeeds Her
to Get Estate.

CHICAGO, Aug. 9.-Alleging that
fortune-teller talked him out of
fortune which he should have inherited
from his mother. Andrew Lilak has
brought suit in the Circuit Court ask
Ing for an accounting and receiver
for the estate. He says the fortune
teller has married the fortune by be-
coming his stepmother.
He charges that Marie Kara, who
maintained the character of one who
could see things that were about to be,
had told gloomy things about him to
his mother, Maria Stroner. as she lay
dying with cancer Neither did she
neglect to mention Incidents of his
past to the dying mother.
Among other unpleasant forecasts
the seeress is alleged to have informed
Mrs. Stroner, whom she knew to be
possessed of some fortune, that her
son would never come to see her after
she was dead, which so wrought upon
the sensitive pride of the one about to
die that she Immediately decided to
leave the $4,000 of which she was pos
sessed to her husband, Charles Stoner.
Soon thereafter she made the decis-
ion effective by passing away. and the
forecaster of events made 1t further
effective by marrying Stroner. To all
of this Lilak enters objections. The
is now nominally held by
John Kara. son of the soothsayer.
