HUNTS DOWN HER
RECREANT SPOUSE
WOMAN'S JEWELS GO TO AID
IN SEARCH
Wronged Wife Follows Husband from
Indiana and Finds Him Living
Here with Another
Woman

Selling her jewelry and other pos
sessions in order to secure money with
which to pursue her husband, who had
deserted her in Indiana two years ago,
Mrs. Ethel Pearlman, a young woman
of determined mien, reached Los An
geles three days ago, and yesterday Sc
cured a complaint from Deputy Dis
trict Attorney Asa Keyes charging her
recreant spouse with bigamy.
Pearlman was arrested last night at
his home, 933 Stafford street, by Con-
stable Frank Cochran, and placed in
the county Jail. He will appear later
before Justice Selph for arraignment.
The couple were married in Vienna
i'll 1902 Three years later they settled
in Indiana, where Pearlnan entered
| into business as a decorator. While
living in the eastern state Mrs. Pearl
man caused her husbands arrest on a
charge of non-support, and 1t was while
the trial was pending that Pearlman
forfeited his bail and came TO Cali
fornia.
Following his disappearance Mrs.
Pearlman Immediately began her work
of tracing him. She communicated
with the authorities in different parts
of the country, giving description of
the man, and it was only two weeks
ago that her efforts met with success.
Then she learned through a friend that
her husband was living in Los Angeles
with another woman.
Mrs. Pearlman, as soon as she could
dispose of her belongings and obtain
money with which to pay the expenses
of her trip, came to this city. Fearing
that her husband might become in
formed of her presence IL she remained
here she went to Edepdale, where she
remained until yesterday, carrying on
her investigation through friends in
this city. Through this investigation
she learned that Pearlman and Gussie
Alpert had secured marriage license
on June "a, 1907, and search in the
recorders office revealed the location
of their home.
When Mrs. Pearlman was informed
yesterday that her husband had gone
to Pomona on business trip she re-
turned at once to Los Angeles and Sc
cured the complaint against him.
Pearlman last night refused to talk
of his troubles.

BULGARIAN EXPLAINS
CAUSE OF TROUBLE
1By Associated Press.1

NEW YORK, Oct. 6.-M. Poprikoff,
the Bulgarian minister of foreign af-
fairs, has sent a cable dispatch to the
Associated Press, giving an authorita-
tive explanation of the Bulgarian sit
uation, which is now absorbing the at
tention of Europe and the world at
large. The dispatch is in reply to q
cablegram requesting M. Poprikoff to
send an official statement of the facts
His answer, dated today at the ancient
capital OF Bulgaria, follows:
''TIRNOVO, Bulgaria, Oct. 6.-Pur-
suant to the treaty of Berlin, Bulgaria
has been a principality tributary to
Turkey. Many years ago Bulgaria ac-
quired the right to have diplo't.if
representatives accredited to a.
great powers.
"She maintained such a repre-
tive at Constantinople. Until re
the diplomatic representative ol
garia to Turkey was invited wi
other members of the diplomatic
in Constantinople to all official ecre-
monies, receptions and dinners.
son the 18th of last Septembe lc
occasion being the anniversary na
sultan's birthday, the Turkish '4l
ter of foreign affairs gave din u
the diplomatic corps. to which tn ~lp-
lomatic representative of Bulgaria was
not invited. Steps were at once taken
to secure an explanation of this neg
lect. The Turkish government replied
that the Bulgarian representative had
no right to expect an invitation to
this diplomatic dinner, as Bulgaria was
a vassal of state of Turkey.
"There then followed a diplomatic
conflict between Bulgaria and Turkey.
Bulgaria considered that Turkey was
not respecting the rights acquired by
her, and she desired to defend those
rights. This was the first incident.
"The Oriental Railway company OPP
crates 300 kilometres QS6 miles) of line
in Bulgarian territory. The same COM
pany operates also about 1000 kilome-
tres (621 miles) of line in Turkish ter

erty of the Oriental Railway company
in Turkey spread at the same time
to Bulgarian territory. This strike was
decided upon and directed from out
side of Bulgaria. Following an under
standing with the representative of the
Oriental Railroad company the Bull
garian government took over tempo
rarily the running of the road. The
strike, however, spread until the ma
tional security of Bulgaria was threat
ened and the people became discontent-
ed with the state of affairs.
''It then became the duty of the Bull

pany to sell us it's rights In Bulgaria

II ONDON, Oct. 6.-The second aul
eliminating step in the Al Lr5-
"a Bulgarian program for the F~
grandizement of themselves at tn
pense of the status established b
treaty of Berlin was consummate
night, when Emperor Francis Joseph
formally proclaimed the practical an
nexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina to
the dual monarchy.
The present situation is as follows:
Turkey calls on the powers to pre-
serve to her what they guaranteed by
that treaty. Austria and Bulgaria
strongly declare their determination to
keep what they have taken.
Servia is protesting belligerently
against being hemmed in more strongly
between two unpopular neighnors anu
against having the Servians in Bosnia
absorbed into the Austro- Hungarian
nationality.
The other powers concerned in the
Berlin treaty are discussing the holding
of an international conference to con-
slider this most delicate of problems.
Danger Minimized
Turkeys unexpected policy of re-
straint minimiZes the possibilities OF
war, which now is considered out of
the question.
The English papers unite in praising
Turkeys moderation and in denouncing
Austria. The Standard IN a lyplcal Ut
terance says:
1--WE are sorry for the aged emperor.
We regret that so late in his long and
honorable career he has chosen to sully
his name with a deed which will go
down in history alongside of the par
tition of Poland"
Several of the London newspapers
question whether or not Emperor Fran
| els Joseph is acting against his will.
Conference Expected
| A conference of the powers is ex-
months if it can be arranged, but no
one imagines that it will undo this
weeks work.
Austria declines even to discuss an
nexation, and the most that is expected
is some arrangement that will save
Turkeys pride.
Before the powers agree to enter
upon a conference they will probably
be obliged to define its scope, which
will be hard task.
British statesmen suggest that COM
pensation be made to Turkey and that
guarantees be given against further
disturbance of the status quo.
Sir Edward Grey, the foreign secre-
tary, will address his constituents to-
morrow evening, when it is expected he
will explain the attitude of the British
government.

NEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa, Oct. 6.-"I
present myself as an example or
~ one who has outlived the venom
Gus attacks of his opponents. You
heard me called a demagogue twelve
years ago. You saw them bury me and
you heard them chant the songs over
my grave, and now they have to ex-
plain why it happened that 1 was not
dead"
With all the fervor that he could
muster, William Jennings Bryan fac
ing a vast assemblage in the Chautau-
qua auditorium between Tama and To-
1edo, in this state, today made the pre-
ceding statement.
At no time during the campaign has
he spoken so earnestly or with such
yigor.
His remarks followed a bitter denun-
citation of Mr.. Taft for refusing to
agree to a publication of campaign con-
tributions before election. No honest
man and no political party conducting
an honest campaign, he declared, "need
be afraid of the light"
Claim Credit for Everything
At woodward in a most convincing
expose he heaped ridicule on the Ke-
publicans by charging them with TAX
ing credit for the growth of crops, the
shining of the sun and the bringing OF
rain.
I'm fact" he said, they seize upon
anything they think gives a plausible
excuse for voting the Republican
ticket"
At Maxwell he compared the grant
ing of special privileges to case p
poison in the human system. a.,
There has been a poison at Wol
in our politics. he declared, and to,
day its manifestations are such that
believe the American people are ready
to spply the remedy. That poison Is
the poison of privilege-the poison OF
.'avoritism. Our government has been
rui too largely in the interests of the
favored few"
Makes Fifteen Speeches
Drawing large and cheering crowds
all day in the course of his travels
through the state, the Democratic can
didate never was in better form, and
hurled defiance at his opponents and
challenged them to meet his arguments.
Fifteen speeches and handshaking
with thousands constituted his day
work, the concluding speech being
made here tonight in the auditorium,
which was filed to overfiowing.
Previous to going to the hall he was
serenaded at the hotel. The keynote OF
his remarks here tonight was that Re
publican policies meant disaster While
Democratic policies meant prosperity.

Comparing the valuations then fixed

the average levy (the aforesaid sub.

The voters Of Miner county will have
an opportunity to say in the June pri-

worth the money.
And so these comparisons might be
