MRS. VANDERbI[T'S
STORY NOT ENDED
Appears Again Before Referee
Who Is Trying to Hurry
the Case
Millionaire Whips Wife and
Spends Time at Home Of
Her Mother in Law

NEW YORK, April Mrs. Alfred G.
Vanderbilt, who gave testimony yester
day before Referee David Mcclure. in
her suit for divorce, will continue her
story today. 1t was believed that Mrs.
Vanderbilts ordeal was at an end when
she left the referees Office yesterday,
but it developed today that her story
had not been completed and that she
would take the stand again today.
Everys effort apparently is being made
to expedite the proceedings and it seems
likely that the referee will be in pos
session of all the evidence in the case
in very short time.
Immediately after the last witness
has been heard Mcclure will begin
work upon his report, which, as soon rs
it is prepared. will be handed to JUS
tice OGorman. by whom the referee was
appointed. There has been must inter
ested comment since the beginning of
the divorce action on the fact that Mrs.
Vanderbilt, when In this city, has made
her headquarters at the home of her
husbands mother, Mrs. Cornelius Van
derbilt. It was from the elder Mrs.
vanderbilt's home that she went to the
hearing yesterday. giving the evidence
upon which her suit is based. While
there have been many stories to ac-
count for the younger Mrs. vanderbilt's
continued presence at the home of her
mother In law, the one most generally
accepted Is that Alfred's mother is max
ing every effort to bring about an ami
cable adjustment of the trouble in her
sons family.

Fruit Crop Is Not Damaged.

Fruit growers at Sloan Springs have made a careful inspection of the fruit buds since the recent cold snap, and report that neither the peaches nor any other fruit has been injured. C. NJ. Lee. one Of the largest peach growers there. said that ke had care fully inspected the buds and found them in good condition. He stated that he believed the cold weather had been good thing, as it checked the tou rapid growth of the buds, thus avoiding the danger of d late frost.
 II is believed that the danger from cold weather is about past. The rec ords show that every fruit crop that has been killed by cold weather was killed at an earlier date than this.
 The prospects for d heavy crop of all kinds of fruit is very good, but the peach crop promises to be an excep- tioaally good one.

chootam strin Part of Arksnsss.

Have Arkansas courts any jurisdie- tion over the strip of land located rear Fort Smith and commonly known as the "Choctaw strip?" This is the main question involved in the case of Cllnt Thompson against William McCauley, jailer of the Fort Smith district of Se- bastian county. the transcript of which was filed with the Supreme Court Thursday, the case being appealed from the Sebastian County Chancery Court
 The case is considered a most inn portant one. as il involves question that has attracted no small amount of attention since the strip of land was set apart for the Cohctaw Indians by the government and then annexed to the state of Arkansas by the Arkan- sas legislature of 1905.
 Thompson was arrested and taken 10 Fort Smith for trial. He was charged with disturbing the peace of the Indian land. He and his attorneys took the stand that the court which tried him had no jurisdiction what ever over that strip of land, claim ing that it was the property of the Indians, and that no court of this state could exercise any power over it's al fairs. Thompson brought habeas cor pus proceedings, asking that writ of habeas corpus be issued and a chance given the jailer. in whose GUS tody Thompson was, 10 show cause why he Thompson, could not be re leased. The petition for habeas cor pus was denied by the lower court, and the case was then appealed.
 In his petition for habeas corpus Thompson allages that the ChoctaW strip was given to the Indians in 1905 by act of Congress; that later 1t was put within the boundary lines of Al kansas by act of Congress and of the Arkansas legislature, but that after that Congress repealed the act. On this ground Thompson claims that nc Arkansas court can have jurisdiction over the Indian reservation
 The strip of land in question lies between Fort Smith and the Poteau river.

Safe Blowers Are Still Busy.

The postofice at Charleston was blown open about o'clock Sunday morning and s225 taken from the safe. The safeblowers have escaped and there is but little hope for their cap ture as there are practically no clues for the officers to work on.
