6. ASHE IS
ACCUSED Of
BRUTALITY
Wife of Attorney Files Suit for
Divorce, Charging NOnsuppOrt
and InfdeIity
Complaint Fails to Name Women
Who Are Involved IN
Scandal
Society and Army Circles Are
Mystifed and AstOnished
by Proceedings

Society and army circles of this
city and Sausalito were mystihed
and astonished yesterday when
the news leaked out that Mrs.
Dulce Bolado Ashe, wife of Gas
ton Ashe, filed a suit for divorce
against her husband nearly week
ago at Hollister. The papers in
the case were placed on record
quietly and the secret was well
kept until yesterday.
The charges against Ashe are
broad and sensational The for
NAL accusations in the complaint
include allegations of nonsup-
port, cruelty and inhdelity, with
lengthy detailed instance Of brutal
treatment which the plaintiff al
leges was practiced on her. AL
though the charges of infdelity
are also made direct. no women's
names are mentioned in the complaint,
and this, it is said, is due solely to the
names OF several prominent women
from the taint OF scandal
The Ashes are wei known TO society,
having taken an active part in the so
cisl life OF San Francisco and Sausa-
Tito. Mrs. Ashe has been partial dur
although she was also an attendant at
the Greenway dances and other large
affairs. CASTOR Ashe is g well known
attorney, q brother Of Porter Ashe of
this city and a member Of a well to do
southern family Until about a year
ago the Ashes had a handsome home
In Sausalito and also spent a portion
OF each year on their southern ranch.
\ year ago they separated and closed
their Sausalito home and Mrs. Ashe
took a little cottage in San Rafael,
where she has been living with their
two small sons
Mrs Ashe, before her marriage, was
lDulce Bolado the daughter OF a
wealthy Spanish family, with large
property interests in San Benfto and
Monterey counties. She is a strik-
'ingly beautiful woman, tall and dark,
and her magnificent gowns have al
ways added 10 her personal charm and
ATTRACTIONS. The Bolado rancho figures
prominently in the early history of the
state, and IL was on this property that
several OF the most dramatic scenes
described by Frank Norris IN THE
OCTOPUS" actually occurred.
A considerable portion Of the Bo-
Ilado property was given into the con-
trol Of CASTOR Ashe at the time Of his
marriage to Dulce Bolado, but the es-
tate did not prosper under his manage
ment and has materially decreased in
value.

with Gallagher. Johns loquacity had
all but exposed the fact that Felix had
employed him to shadow Gallagher in
January and added to this Johns
drinking habits made him utterly un-
reliable. SO Peter was enjoined to
conceal from John the receipt of Felix's
letters and was told to explain his
presence in the city as accidental in
case he encountered his brother in San
Francisco. Peter was then at Chico.
There was no guile in the appeal to
Peters cupidity. There was money In
1t, Felix said. and as an added incen-
tive he inclosed a postal money order
for 81 in his second letter. He said 1t
was all he could spare for Peter at that
time
PETER CHARGES 'BLACKMAILv
The letters were introduced before
the Alameda county grand jury when
John and Peter and Felix were in
dicted.
A letter by Peter to Mrs. Eldredge,
former landlady of Peters, living
at Chico. was also introduced. This
letter stated that John had threatened
to destroy letters and papers belong
ing to Peter in case Peter failed to
give him money. Peter defined the
threat as ''blackmail."
The first Pauduveris letter to Peter
was written on March s. 1t ran:
san Francisco, March s. 1908.
Dear Peter-Can you come down to
the city this week? 1 want to see
you on very important matters. which
mean money to you Don't say any
thing to anybody now, even to John,

this week do not go to my office. but

OVATION FOR
 OLD WARSHIP
Ancient SloOp.of-War Portsmouth Yesterday Passed Up Hudson Jn- der Full Sail. Going to West Point on What Is to Be Its Last Cruise.

New York. Aug. 20-For the last time tn cold sloop-ofo-war Portsmouth came up the Hudson river yesterday under practically full sail. bringing the first division Of the New Jersey naval reserves back from the fleet practice at Gardiner's Bay. Bravely the 65-year-oid ship passed by steam and sail craft in the river, while thou- |sands Of persons watched from both shores the unusual sight of full- lrigged ship under sail essaying to navigate the crowded thoroughfare. Last night 1he Portsmouth came 10 anchor of Yonkers on account Of the wind dying out and today will sail on 10 West Point if the weather fayors.
 The entrance Of the old warship in- 10 the lower haroor was the occasion for an ovation from every vesse, that passed her.
 There was light southweslerly breeze blowing. just enough 10 drive the Portsmouth at a six-knot gait, and all of her sails were set with the eX- ception Of the foresail and mainsail. The bellying canvas and the towering masts. with topsails. rop-gallant sails and royals drawing and the main spanher set 10 steady her was sight 10 revive the oldest salt who gazed seaward with age-dimmed eyes a- the Battery Seawal,
 Ferryboa-s and riye- steamooa,s whistled and passengers cheerei themselves hoarse as they passed close ty the ship. The embryo bluejackels, dressed in whi,e work suits. manned the rails. and the big ensign floating from the spanker sah was dippei again and again in response to the sa- lu,es et welcome Captain Peters be- fore leaving Gardine-'s Bay determia- ei that the old ship should end is last cruise with fitting valedic1ory and the trip to Wes- Point was planned. Only -he dying out of the light breeze stop ped the journey of Yonkers. There was a pretty tribute on the ship as it swept in stately manner past the tomb of Gen. l. s Grant. The entire crew manned the rail and doHed their caps. while -he ensign was lowered until the Portsmouth had passed
