GIRLS THE PRIZE
IN LEGAL FIGHT
PARENTS OF TWO CHILDREN IN
BITTER CONTEST
Warfare Begun in Ohio Courts Several
Years Ago, Following Divorce,
Is Transferred to Los
Angeles

A tiny golden haired girl, suffering
with the measles, clogged the wheels OF
justice yesterday when Judge James
in department of the superior court
ruled that the habeas corpus proceed
ings in the case of w. F. Godfrey
against Alice Lutz of Long Beach be
continued for a day until the mother of
the little girl could leave the young
stei's bedside.
The case is one of the most remark
able in the history of American courts.
Husband and wife, following legal
separation, have fought their way back
and forward across the continent in an
effort to gain supreme control of two
little girls. In Ohio, the couples for
mer home in 1901, the husband, w. f.
Godfrey, was granted a divorce from
Alice Godfrey because, as he states, of
her Inconsistency. He was granted the
custody of their two children-Goldie,
now aged II, and Ruth, now aged 8.
Ruth is now suffering with the measles,
and she held up the investigation yes
terday because her mother could not
leave her during the morning.
Legal Fight Begins
AS soon as the custody of the children
was decided q legal war began. Mrs.
Godfrey instituted proceedings against
her former husband, claiming that he
was nor fit person to care for the
little Cnes. She instituted habeas cor
pus proceedings at that time and gained
coatrol OF the children. The legal war
vas transferred to another of the
eastern states at that time because
Godfrey moved from Ohio, and then it
went back to the Ohio courts when
Godfrey appealed the case and won a
decision from the district court. Mrs.
Godfrey appealed to the supreme court
and lost the decision, according to an
opinion handed down last year. The
case then went to the United States
court, and 1t sustained the husbands
contention a few days ago. In the
meantime Mrs. Godfrey had come 10
California and settled at Long Beach.
Since that time she has become Mrs.
Alice Lutz. and she is just as deter
mined now as ever that the children
shall remain with her.
Not a Welcome Caller
When her former husband found her
and tried to serve habeas corpus papers
on her she shut the door in his face.
When the case was called In depart
ment of the superior court yesterday
the woman was not there and a post
ponement was granted until the after
noon. During the recess Godfrey went
TO Long Beach TO find his former wife
and serve her with a writ OF attach
ment compelling her to produce the
children IN court.
Mrs. Lutz came to Los Angeles as
soon as her little girls condition had
permitted and stated that she had mis-
Los Angeles herald., 1907-03-14

taken the number of the court room
The case was then continued and it Will
come up for, settlement this morning in
department 4, when, it is expected, a
lively legal war will result.
Mrs. Lutz contends that if the chill
dren will be permitted to say with
whom they would rather live that she
will be the choice, and on the other
hand the father contends that the chill
dren are his by right of law and that
he will have them whether or not.

f. b. Sherwood, proprietor of the

He went over on the Kaiser Wilhelm

Chemnitz, Germany, the home of a
large part of the hosiery worn by
American men.
OF this place Mr.. Sherwood tells
many interesting stories and says that
so full of interest was the manufacture

"Chemnitz is a picturesque town in

Simon Guggenheim, Senatcr-elect
from Colorado, has fallen under

tiles and trust-busting experts
are conducting an investigation to
determine whether it is a cOmbina-

The smelter trust investigation was

Victimized.
Department of justice officials
were irritated at Washington when
it became known that heavy holders
of the stock in the Smelter Trust
have known for some time that an
investigation Of this combination was
in progress. By using this informa-
tion large blocks Of stock were un-
loaded at high prices.
When President Roosevelt ordered
a secret investigation of this trust
the common stock Of the American
Smelling and Refining Company sold
for 100 on the New York Stock Ex-
change. The Guggenheims and their
close associates held large blocks of the
stock-were in control, in fact-and
these securities were sent to outside
points to be unloaded. The public
knew nothing of the investigation.
When offerings were made at the 60
ing price many persons bought at
figures ranging from 16O down, until
finally the stock went to 115.
Thus the "dear people" were once
more fim-fammed in that great Wall
Street game Of "get something for
nothing"
Fairbanks Cocktail.
The story, circumstantially told,
that Vice-President Fairbanks served
cocktails at the luncheon which
he gave to President Roosevelt
on Decoration Day, has set the
whole country talking. Mr.. Fair
banks is a Member of the Meth
odist-Episcopal Church, which is
most bitterly opposed to any form
of liquor The ministers and laymen
of that church are especially shock
ed, while temperance workers and
prohibitiohists Of all creeds are un-
sparing in denunciation. The Vice
President has clearly arrived at the
parting Of the political ways. 1t is
believed that from now on the Fair
banks presidential battle cry will be
changed from Buttermilk Fair

tion by bayonets are of doubtful legality and validity bat they are obeyed and observed because the people have willed 1t.
 With the flight of time there passed away all danger of the gov. ernment lapsing into monarchy. But the people perceive that under the form of republican institutions men combined in corporations have reached and exercised more power than ever dreamed by monarchs. They have determined to check and curb that power just as did their forefathers check and curb the power of the crown. The Hamiltonian doctrine of reading into the Constitution by construc- ton the powers necessary comes into play readily.
 But the thinkers, like Professor James, see that there may be danger in the exercise too freely of the doctrine of implication, for which reason they advocate con- vention and adoption of new com stitution giving openly to the gen. eral government all the powers it has appropriated by implication.
