SOLOHS ADJOURN TILL FALL
ILLINOIS LEGISLATORS POST.
PoNE WATERWAY FIGHT.
May Take Power from Both Canal
and Private Interests When
Body Reconvenes.

Springfield, Ill, May 1.-THE forty
fifth general assembly Thursday took
recess until October S,~when it is
planned to resume consideration of
the pending deep waterway issues.
If there is any legislation at all
when the assembly reconvenes it is
predicted that it will be bona fide wa
ter way legislation and that the pow
er question will be taken out of the
discussion by the attitude of the leg
islators on behalf of the whole state.
Thus far the question of water power
rates and privileges has proved the
stumbling block. To be exact, it has
been the excuse for the measure in
troduced at the eleventh hour by the
sanitary district of Chicago, it is
charged, and also has been the source
of opposition from Joliet
The country members have shown
disposition to take the water power
away from both the district and pri-
vate interests. A bill to accomplish
this through commission, intro
sduced by Senator Schmitt, is pending
in the senate, as is the Cooley bill,
which also includes state water power
provisions.
The promptness of the sanitary dis
trict officials in agreeing to the pro-
longed recess the minute the move
to make the state water power au-
thority was made was hailed by their
opponents as a sign that they cared
little for the waterway without the
power grant

ropean Turkey, says that a detach-

ceeded in capturing the stronghold of
the Bulgarian bands in the Yenidje
lake region. The Bulgarians lost so
men, due. it is alleged, to the fact that
the Turks killed their prisoners. The
Turkish loss was seven men killed.
The Bulgarians are threatening to
destroy all the Greek and Turkish vii

Couple Will Go to 100000 Chateau
in France, Which Is a Gift
to Former Actress.

New York, May lev. Ellis Corey,
corporation, married Mabelle Gilman
at the Hotel Gotham at 1880 a. m.
Tuesday. They left the hotel half an
hour later for Hoboken, where they
boarded the steamer Kaiser Wilhelm
H., on which they sailed for Europe
later in the day. Mrs. Corey was at

ing dress which she had donned i'm.
mediately after the wedding cere-
mony A few of the guests, who had
remained for the purpose, bid the
couple good-by. The streets adjacent
to the hotel, which had been thronged
early in the night by curious crowd,
were almost deserted when MI. Corey
and his bride departed.
On arriving in Europe Mr.. and
Mrs. Corey will go directly to the
Chateau Villegenis, on the outskirts
of Paris, where they will reside until
the middle of July. This chateau,
was the wedding gift of Mr.. Corey to
his bride. 1t was given to her Mon
day night just before the wedding.
It's value is said to be about $1,000
900.
The wedding of Mr.. Corey to Miss
Gilman took place in little impro-
vised chapel in the suite of rooms
engaged by Mr.. Corey. The couple
stood beneath an arch of orchids and
asparagus plumes from the top of
which was suspended a white, satin
marriage bell. The ceremony, which
was performed by Rev ]. l.. Clark, a
congregational minister of Brooklyn,
was simple and brief. The hour set
for the ceremony enabled the couple
to avoid being married on the 18th of
the month, and also to catch the
steamer which sailed at 1880 a. m.
Mr.. Corey's parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
A. A. Corey, and rs other relatives
and friends of the bride and groom,
including b. n Gary, witnessed the
ceremony and were also at the din.
ner which preceded the wedding.

Motion for Substitution Of Trial
Judge Denied-court EIisor to
Have No Part in Trial and His
Talesmen Will Not Be Accepted.

San Francisco, May 22.-The largest
crowd that has thus far been attract
ed by any of the proceedings in the
investigation and prosecution was in
attendance in the superior court Tues
day when Mayor Schmitz made his APP
pearance on the charge of extorting
money from local French restaurants
and with the connivance of Abraham
Ruef. Not only was the courtroom
crowded to it's utmost capacity, but
scores of people stood on the benches
in order to catch glimpse of the de-
PENDANT and lose no incident of the
proceedings.
Assistant District Attorney Heney
read affidavits sworn to by himself
and Judge Dunno denying categorical
ly the allegation made in the affidavits
filed last Saturday by the defense in
support of the motion for a substitu-
ton of trial judge.
AZ the conclusion of the reading of
the affidavits Judge Dunno denied the
motion for the change of trial judge.
That the court elisor is to have no part
immediate intentions go, was shown
by the fact that Judge Dunno ordered
that none of the n talesmen now avail
able shall be permitted to serve as pos
sible jurors, except those who were
summoned by the sheriff. Those who
were summoned by Elisor Buggy, Incl
dental to the Ruef proceedings, were
dismissed from service.
Subsequently Mr. Heney stated that
counsel for both side agreed to excuse
all of the 16 jurors summoned by the
sheriff and asked that the court dis
miss them and order the drawing of a
fresh panel of SO talesmen from the
regular list. This will be done. A
recess was taken to allow of the
bringing Of the jury box from the
county clerks Office to the court.
The new panel of the talesmen was
made returnable at 1890 a. m. We'd
