The decision sustained the position
Of the supreme court of Utah In the
Hilton Roylance case" said Mr.. Jones,
this morning. "They held that decision
was controlling and that the executor
had no ground for action The judges
seemed much interested In the case, and
sustained practically every contention
made by me in defense OF Mrs. Hiltons
claim, and upholding the probate and
district courts of Fremont county, from
which the action had been appealed
CASE is REVIEWED.
In the decision. the story of the Ar
mitage- Park Hilton case was reviewed
In 1872 at the residence of Mrs. Emeline
Free Young, in Salt Lake, DIR. Park
was sealed to Annie Ar1nitage by Presi-
dent d. H. Wells At the time Miss
Armitage was supposed to be dying and
the ceremony was performed In accord
ance with the belief of the Latter-day
Saints The girl did not die, however,
and on March 10, 1873, divorce was
granted by the Mormon Church.
At the time Mrs. Park supposed that
this divorce was valid ana later mar
ried William Hilton.
The Idaho supreme court sustained
the lower court in it's decision, that
while the marriage of Miss Armitage to
DR.. Park was valid, the divorce was
not This made Mrs Park Hilton the
widow of Dr. Park, and as the widow,
the court held. she is entitled to one
half of DR. Parks estate.
In the decision the various points
raised by the lawyers of Samuel w.
Stewart executor of the Dr. Park es-
tate. were disposed of. 1t was held
that Mrs. Park-Eilton's marriage to
claim and that the only manner IN
which the second marriage could prop
erly come before the court would be
when some question is raised concern
ing the Hilton property. The decision
will be OF interest to n number of Salt
Lake property owners. as the widow
rot only claims half of the estate left
by Dr. Park, but disputes the validity
OF transfers of property before his
death which were made without OBJ
tanning her signature as DR.. Parks
wife, and actions are pending against

County Attorney viii Prosecute
Alleged Professor of
Faith Cure.
THREE CHILDREN ARE DEAD.
The Fourth Is Very Sick and Medical
Treatment Has Been Given Des-
pitc Fathers Protest.

As q result of the shocking disclos-
ures concerning the death OF the three
Titus children from diphtheria. the
father of the children Prof c. II.
Titus Is to be arrested on the charge
Of manslaughter. County Atty. VIII
lard Hanson proposes to see that the
man is punished, IL possible under the
law. for the uncalled for death of the
children, Glen, aged two years, and
Violet aged 10 years. 1t will be test
case as to whether a parent can per-
nit his children to die in the absence
of medical attention.
The children were afflicted with
diphtheria and Titus failed to call In
physician, claiming that he would cure
them by faith. He would not call
doctor nut applied some sort Of oil to
the threats of the children and said
that by fixing his nina on the cases he
would euro them. Several days ago
Glen died and Titus at first refused
10 apply for burial permit declar-
ing his intention of burying the little
one In the back yard. He changed his
Alind, however and the child was
buried in the city cemetery, Two 9TH
,er children then came down with the
disease and on Sunday Violet died.
COMPLAINTS DRAWN.
The matter was reported 70 the
board of health by indignant neigh
bors and Or. Fisher OF the board made
an investigation. He treated the other
child in spite of Titus and then took
the matter up with the county attorn-
ey. Yesterday afternoon Mr.. Hanson
decided to proceed against the so-called
"healer' and had drawn UP two COM
plants charging Titus with involun-
tary manslaughter, The complaints
were drawn under the following sec
ton of the statute:
"4163. Manslaughter is the unlawful
killing of a human being without NAL
ice. II is of two kinds voluntary and
involuntary. Involuntary is the COM
mission of an unlawful act not amount
ing 10 felony, or in the commission
of an act which might produce death.
In an unlawful manner, or without due
caution and circumspection.'
Rutherford Corbin, newspaper
man, swore to the complaints and
there are five physicians who will be
witnesses against the man. They are:
Drs. r. W. Fisher, II. n. Mayo, S. G.
Paul Evans and Luella Miles.
Warrants of arrest on each of the
complaints were issued and placed in
the hands of Deputy Sheriffs ASel
Steele and Ike Emery. They were I'M
able to locate the man. although they
searched for him the greater part of
the night.
The bodies of the little ones are TO be
exhumed and an autopsy held so that
there can be no doubt as to the cause
of death. Titus will be arraigned be-
fore Justice Smith.

Harmed Divorce
Papers Filed

RENO, Sept. 25.-Depositions in the
divorce proceedings of Virginia h.
Southern VS. Edward H. Southern
were received in this city yesterday
by County Clerk Fogg, to be filed with
the other papers in the case, until
the date of the trial.
The papers are sealed, and are
underline signatures oil the wife and
Eleanor Rogers, both of New York.
This action on the part of the COM
plainantis evidence that she does not
intend to come to this city at the
time of the hearing before Judge
Pike, some time during next month.
Whether Southern himself will reap
pear in this city at the time is
question, but the probability is that
he will not, the matter being entirely
in the hands of counsel.
1t will be remembered that E. ii.
Southern, the distinguished actor, was
here in July last, at the time of the
filing of the original complaint, his
wife, Virginia, better known as Vir-
giniaHarned, the noted actress, being
at the time in New York.

session of the San Francisco stock
exchange board today, an advance

exchanges attribute the recent actlv-

which is now in highly mineralized

of Dick Forester, taken at Stockton,
Cal, a few days prior to his death,
We're yesterday read by the plaint--4
in the case of Jennie Forrester VS.. the
Southern Pacific company for dam
ages for the death of her husband.
In the deposition Forester stated
that the train agent had elected him
from the train at Montelle, at the
desert N Nevada, and accused him OF
either stealing his ticket or securing
it from scalper. He also stated
