WEATHER MAN Is NOT
VERY ENCOURAGING.
Says It Is Going to Keep Pretty Hot
All This Week, but There May
Be Showers.

According to the weather observer al
the High School there is, going to be
continued hot weather all this week,
with perhaps a shower tonight or to-
morrow morning, which will only bring
temporary relief. it is said. People who
are counting on COO weather in the
early part of September may be sadly
disappointed, for the weather man pre-
diets for us a late fall. The warm
weather may last up to the end of
September.
Although many have felt the heat
today, and have been characterizing 1t
as a record breaker, it is only normal.
The temperature has not reached n
higher point than this date last year.
The weather man having promised
a shower for tonight, people may feel
a little more comfortable and trust IL
will have a lasting and not a temporary
effect in the change of the tempera-
ture.

WIFE'S PRIVILEGE TO
FUNNEL HER HUSBAND?
This Judge Dismissed Complaint, Any
~way-Bif! Bifl When Tompkins
Met Her and Escort.

summoned before Judge Herr. in the Sec
ond Precinct Court, this morning, along

along Belleville avenue with his woman
companion. when his wife and Egan came
along and without a word of warning
began to shower blows Upon him. He pro-

RESTORE ORDER
FRANCES POSITION IN RE.
GARD TO MOROCCO.
She Will Not Again Assure Powers
as Spanish Government Suggests,
However.

PARIS. Aug. 12.-While 1t is officially
declared that the French government will
not extend the scope of its action IN
Morocco beyond what was communicated
to the powers, namely, to conf1ne itser TO
the reservation of order and the organiza-
ton of the international police, 1t may be
significant of a possible change in the at
titude of France chat she has declined to
agree to the invitation of Spain to send a
new Joint nbte to the powers, reafi1rmlng
the solidarity of the views and actions OF
the two governments, which matter is
now the subject of diplomatic exchanges
of views.
without doubt France desires to keep
within the terms Of the Algeciras conven-
l3tion. but she is reluctant to join Spain
in a new note to the powers in the face OF
n situation which may force her hand.
For the moment. however, 1t is declared
that even the dispatch of fresh troops
from France to Morocco has not been de-
cided upon, the notifications in Algeria
and at Toulon. 1t is explained, being pre-
cautionary measures with the view of
hav ing more effective men ready III the
ey emit of a sudden emergency.
The section of the press which is con-
WINGED that France must assume the task
of plotting an end to the existing anarchy
In Morocco believes it to be the duty or
the government not to try to deceive
either itself or tine world. They believe
that to establish permanent order in
Morocco that country must be conquered
as Algeria was. and that in order to ac-
complish this the hands of France must
be freed from the restrictions of the AL
geciras convention. Therefore, the papers
argue. the powers should induce Germany
to give her consent TO the conquest of
Morocco and then France must prepare
for a long campaign. OF course, the ma
tural sequel to the conquest, the absorp-
ton of Morocco, is not concealed. How
otherwise can Frances bill be paid, the
papers ask.

ELOpING GIRL,
IS CAST OFF
BY COOKE
Reverend Guardian Of Flor
eta Whaley Puts Her in
SanatOriun.

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-According to
news that has reached Hampstead, the
awakening has speedily come to Miss
Floretta Whaley, the 17-year-old girl
who eloped on April 20 with her guard
ian the Rev. Jere Knode Cooke, then
rector of st. Georges Episcopal Church
at Hampstead. Miss Whaley, 1t is
stated, had been deserted by the UNI
frocked minister and is reported to be
in a sanatorium i'm Canada, a nervou
wreck. The Whereabouts of Cooke has
not zen learned.
Thai Cooke should have deserted the
child when she ceased to amuse him
was expected by those who knew the
double life he had been leading. In
spite of his soft. well-modulated voice.
his ministerial, Man-of-God pose, it de-
veloped after he had eloped, that he
was a man who practised double-deal-
ing, and it is no surprise to those who
have followed his course that he
turned from the girl far from her homo
and left her an object of charity.
There is a warrant out for this un-
frocked minister. charging him with
abduction. The people of Hampstead
are bitter against the disgraced min
lister.
When Cooke disappeared from
Hampstead and it become known that
he had taken the child-heiress frorr
her home. leaving his own wife as a
DEFENDANT, the people of his church
did not believe what they heard until
a few days later. when Bishop Bur-
CESS. of the diocese Of Long Island,
received a letter in which Cooke re-
quested that he be permitted to resign
his charge of st. Georges Church Fol-
lowing the receipt of this letter. there
a meeting of the wardens. and
August Belmont announced that Cooke
was no longer the clergyman.
Then. too, here came a letter from
the child dupe Ia her aged grandmother
telling her how she loved Jere," how
she was going away never to return
home. The letter was the more pitiful
because of its chiIdishness.
Cooke had been made her guardian
at the deathbed of the child's father.
Mr.. Whaley had a fortune of about
$3.50. 600. which he left to Floretta n
her younger sister. There was none to
care for the two children save their
grandmother. Their mother was dead.
1t was told in Hampstead now Cooke
had come to the dying mans bedside.
how he had accepted the charge and
promised to carry out every request,
and these promises had been sealed IN
prayer Mr.. Whaley died believing that
his girls had been left in the best OF
hands.

BELFAST HOUSES
WRECKED I'M RIOT.
Windows and Street Lamps Broken
Sixty Persons Are Being Treated
in Hospitals.

BELFAST, Ireland, Aug. 12.-The
in the Falls n Grosvenor districts of
this city testify to the severity of the
rioting last night. Hardly a window or
a street lamp remains intact, while
doors were smashed in by stones hurled
by the strikers at the cavalry. The
street paving was torn up on all sides
to furnish the rioters with missiles.
There were no fatalities, but over sixty
persons, about equally divided among
the troops and rioters, are being treated
in the hospitals for severe injuries.
The strikers are still i'm a very ag-
gressive mood. Only the strong forces
of troops on duty prevent them from
attacking the men who are at work.

Eight of them were caught and detained
at the station about an hour and then al

TO
BEGIN EARLY
CAMPAIGN
Harmony Speech by State
Chairman HudSpeth Brings
Encouragement.

Harmony was the w~atchword at the
meeting of the Democratic state Com
mittee last Saturday in Asbury Park,
this being especially evidenced in the
speech of Robert Hudspeth, who was
chosen State chairman to succeed Will
lam B. Gourley. Mr.. Hudspeth's speech
was considered especially effective.
This. together with the preparation of
plans for the approaching campaign,
were the elements that pleased Jersey
Democrats.
The informal discussion of candidates
was decidedly favorable to former
Judge Francis Child. although many of
the counties had their "favorite sons"
There seemed to be no opposition to the
Essex candidate that would prevent a
swing in convention by the outside
counties when they shall see that their
'favorite sons" cannot muster the
necessary votes.
Whateve ~ signs there may have been CT
any party discord in the ranks has been
dissipated by Chairman Hudspeth's speech.
His cry was for harmony. That plea,
coming from. Hudson, which is now work
ing arm In arm with Essex, has had its
influence on the State committeeman and
they all said that the messages they
would carry back to their respective corn-
ties would nave a s~alutary effect and
would be sure TO restore the old-time
ascendancy of the party.
AS soon as S nator Hudspeth returns
from his vacation-in about ten days-ar-
engagements will be made to open up
State headquarters in Jersey City. The
committee appointed Saturday to organize
the young Jersey Democrats into shape
will then get to work. Special efforts will
be made to arouse feeling amongst the
young element this fall, so that the
Democratic vote VIII be a figure that will
stand for many years.
The various county committees will soon
get busy outlining their plans.

CAN COMPEL ROAD
TO MAKE CONNECTIONS
Supreme Court Hands Down I'm
portant Decision as to
Regulation.

WASHINGTON, April 29.-The Su~
preme court of the United States today
decided in effect that the railroad com
mission Of the State of North Caro-
lima can compel railroad company op-
Grating in that State to so adjust IFS
schedule as to accommodate passengers
on other lines from any particular part
Of the State The opinion was dellv..
cred by Justice White In the case OF
the Atlantic Coast Railroad company
versus the Corporation commission OF
North Carolina.
The commissioners directed the COM
pany 10 make connection Mt Selma with
train on another line. The company
resisted on the ground that the order
could not be complied with without
putting on 3 special train. This, 1t was
contended, amounted to taking property
without due process of law. The Su.
prone court Of North Carolina held
against the railroad company and Its
decision was confirmed by today's ac-
ton on the ground that the order does
not affect rates, but is a proper act Of
State regulation.
