from Judge Shelby. dated ct New Or leans February 2S. 1907:
 Your personal letter of the z4th insty fs received. in which you say if is probable that certain railroads will hie . number of bills in the Circuit Court to enJofn the enofrcement of the rate legislation. and that you would be glad to have one of the circuit 5udIes to sit with you in the event such bills are filed. Such eases are always immediately carried up by appeal, and 1t causes great inconvenience here if either one of the circuit judges is dis qualified from sitting. Under the stat ute. if . circuit judge takes any part In the decision of e case below, as you know. he cannot sit in the appeal. Much delay has been caused here in waiting to obtain a district judge when he Is disqualified. As am in the cir cult ali the summer I have made orders in a number of cases that have dir- qualified me from sitting in them hore. My colleagues have complained of this. and I am under promise not to dis qualify myself when can avoid it.
 Notwithstanding the fact that you were attorney for the l.. and N. Rail- road for number of years, I am sat- isfed that no one in Alabama, and no one elsewhere who knows you, would impute to you any improper motives in the decision of any railroad case. think 1t best for you to go on with them just as you would in any other case. If. however. you prefer having some one with you. suggest that Judge Toulmin be designated. I have made no examination of the statutes, but take 1t that two district judges can hold the circuit court. I will cor respond further with you if need be if the bills are filed, and shall s1deavor to do anything I can to relieve you Of any embarrassment you may have in the matter. I wish, however, to keep free to take part in the decision In this court. especially in the cases coming from Alabama.
 Yours Sincerelv

New York. June 26.-After a trial
which lasted nearly three weeks,
Katherine C1emmons Gould obtained
Q legal separation from her husband,
Howard Gould, third son of the late
Jay Gould, by a decision of Justice
bowling in the supreme court. With
the exception of alimony, her victory
was complete. but in this phase of
the case the court decided that $780,
600 a year was sufficient, although in
her suit Mrs. Gould asked for $3.50, 900.
She has been receiving $25, 900 year
from Mr.. Gould, so that the amount
fixed by the court is but slight in.

sued for.
1t was in the vindication of charges
of intoxication and her alleged rela-
lions with Dustin Farnum, the &C.

strongly, for Notwithstanding the long
array of witnesses for Mr.. Gould,
who gave such testimony as to make

Senate PTogTessIYes Beaten on
Lumber Schedule.
HOUSE RATES ARE INCREASED
Finance Committee Sustained
All Along the Line.

Washington, June 23.-Without q
sign of q speech the senate began
voting on the lumber schedule as
soon as q quorum had been procured.
Whether due to the hot weather or to
exhaustion of the orators from other
causes the change was accepted as a
good omen by those who are anxious
to crowd the tariff bill to final action
and have the session come to an end.
1he first vote was on an amendment
by Senator McCumber, proposing a
rate of 81 per thousand on sawed lum-
Der instead of the rate decided upon
by the finance committee, which was
$1.60 per thousand The committee
was sustained, A to "a. OF those vot-
Ing for lower duty ten only were
Observation-Disclosures, Clay, Davis,
Gore, Hughes, Johnston, McLaurin,
Overman, ERynter and Tillman. The
Republicans who voted in support of
the amendment were Beverage, Bris
tow, Brown, Burkett, Burton, Carter,
Clapp, crawford, Cumm1ns, Curtis,
Gamble, La Toilette, McCumber and
Nelson. The Democrats voting against
the amendment were Bacon, Bailey,
Chamberlain, Fletcher, Foster, Martin,
Money, Simmons, Smith of Maryland,
Taliaferro and Taylor.
Another test came on the PROPOSE
ton to make rate of 1925 per thou
sand on lumber with a general change
In the differentfals, and on this vote
the finance committee was also liberal
ly supported.
The entire wood schedule, making
reductions Of about rs per cent from
the present law rates, and increasing
the house rates of the pending bill to
about the same extent, was then
agreed to.

alleged "intoxication" might have
been due to excitement AS to Dustin
Farnum, it was held that her asso-
citation with him came after Mr.. and
Mrs. Gould separated and that the
husband apparently made no objec-
ton.
Immediately after the decision De-
lancey Nicoll, for Mr.. Gould, asked for
Z sixty-day stay of judgment, and
Clarence j. Shearn, for the plaintiff,
was on his feet to object He asked
for an immediate judgment Justice
Bowling compromised by making the
stay thirty days. Mr.. Shearn then
asked for an extra allowance for
counsel fees and the court gave him
$4,000. This, together with the $10,-
600 allowed recently and the original
allowance of $4,000, will bring his
fees to $4,000, with an additional
sum of $4,000 for expenses.
