PRISONERS USED TO HELP
WIN RIGHT OF WAY
City Opens Traffic Over Bridge
While Courts Are Closed

Especial Dispatch 10 The Call
RENO, New, Jan. 4.-With the aid of
city and county prisoners Reno vspn one
skirmish IN its tedious battle for a
street right of way across the prop
erty of the Virginia and Truckee rail-
road property Sunday.
For months the railroad has tied up
operations in the opening up of this
thoroughfare leading over new bridge
across the Truekee river.
The city entered upon the construc-
tion of the bridge before securing the
right of way for the street. When this
was refused the work was brought to a
standstill until yesterday, when City
Engineer Maxson called upon the Off
GERS to allow the prisoners to aid in
preparing a pathway across the prop
erty. Being nonjudicial day, the
railroad company could not appeal to
the courts and the work was carried to
conclusion. This will result in opening
up the new street to traffic until the
matter is finally decided one way or the
other in the courts.
Armed officers guarded the prisoners
and the work while the scheme was
being carried out.

Mrs. Green at that time, "and did not
advance the money"
Society here was on tiptoe to dis
cover who it was who had sought Mrs.
Green for loan. Each OF the Wander
bilts III turn Indignantly denied Mrs
Green's statement and when William
K. Vanderbilt Jr was questioned ne
turned scarlet and Indignantly refused
to answer. Vanderbilt has within the
lasts year effected various economies at
his Deep Dale, Long island, estate and
has dismissed from his service many OF
the workmen and attendants. Two
weeks ago he leased this magnificent
country place, and il was stated that
he would build another house further
out on Long Island, in the Wading river
section
On top of all this came the announce
ment last week that Vanderbilt's
mother, Mrs Q. II. p Belmont. had
placed on the market her magnificent
house at Newport, one OF the show
places of this world famed resi-
dence of enormously rich families, a
magnificent pile. of gothic design with
white marble trimmings. The tax upon
the house itself. exclusive of the land
and OF its rich interior furnishings, was
sS4.667 year.
1t is also recalled that at the time
of the so called 'Iich mans" panic IL
was current gossip both here and in
San Francisco that the Fair estate had
been involved in unfortunate specula-
tion and that Mrs. Theresa Oelrfchs
paid a hurried visit TO San Francisco
with the avowed purpose of realizing
some money on her property there.
Entertains Lavishly
If there is anything more than a
temporary disagreement between Mr..
and Mrs. Vanderbilt Jr. the latter does
not show 1t outwardly, for she has been
conspicuous member of society this
winter, attends the opera frequently
and has given entertainments herself.
On Saturday afternoon she gave a mu-
which the 400 was literally repre-
sented. Mr.. and Mrs. William II.
Crocker were there, and other guests
included Mrs. Charles 3. Alexander,
Mrs. Clarence III. Mackay. Mrs Oe1richs,
Mrs. Drexel Mrs. Foxhall Keene. Mr..
and Mrs. Henry Clews, F. Townsend
Martin. William d. Sloane. Mr.. and
Mrs. Charles Dana Gibson, Mr.. and

score OF others, well known society
people.

dance tomorrow evening.
