to the 15th Alderman Bullard wanted to know if the aldermen were going to have an opportunity to debate upon the proposed amendments Alderman McMurray then consented to have the report of the revision committee read
 They were all read as printed in the Farmer of last night, with the exception of one changing the charter relative to the establishment of bar bor lines by the city. This amend ment was withdrawn by the mayer be- fore the others were turned over to the clerk
 A minority report from former AL dreman Morrissey was also read. The minority report favored a referenoum vote of the people before the amend ments become laws.
 The mayor said "that never but once in the history of our city had there been a. referendum. That had been blanket one covering the present clly charter, which included the law under which the present board of Park Com missioners was created. This law he said was the one which Alderman Nor rissey had found fault with. and he believed the Alderman had voted for it. He said that only a small DOT tion of the voters had interested them selves in the referendum enough 10 vote on the question.
 Alderman Wilson moved the adoption of the majority report, but Alderman McMurray insisted that his previous motion took precedent over any other motion as he agreed to listen to the reading of the amendments, before insisting upon a vote to adjourn for one week Alderman Wilson with drew his motion to adopt the majority report and seconded Alderman McMuT- rays report to adjourn to Feb. 8.
 Mayor Lee told the aldermen that Alderman Tague had two amendments relative to the pensioning of flremen and policemen which were to be dis cussed at a meeting of the revision committee tonight
 Alderman Tague stated for the bene- fit of his colleagues that the disposal of his resolutions was in the hands of the committee. As the mayor had seen fit to withdraw some amendments that the committee had objected to he did not expect any better treatment for his amendments than had been ac- COT ded the mayors. It was under stood that if the committee voted to reoommend the changes in the tension laws that they would be turned over to the city clerk in time to be printed and to the aldermen for consid- eration.

HELEN MALONEY AGAIN MARRIES
 ARTHUR OSBORNE
Ceremony Performed in St. Catherine's Church at
 Spring Lake, N. J.
Her Elopement With Sam uel Clarkson Was Talk of Two Continents Then It Was Learned She Had Married Osborne and Lat CT the Marriage Was An nulled.
Special from United Press }


 Spring Lake. N, J.. Feb. 2.-Miss Helen Maloney, daughter of Martin Maloney the traction magnate and Papal Marquis, was this morning mar ried to Arthur Osborne of New York City. the hero of her first or .sjoke' marriage which was annulled in New York several months ago.
 Miss Maloney's first marriage to Os- borne. which took place at Marmaro- neck. December 28. 1905. was only made public after her sensational elOpement with Samuel Clarkson. a London club man, in October. 1907. The elopement was one of the biggest social sensa- tions of the year but it was overshad- owed 8 short time later when Osborne, a New York stock broker came out with the announcement that he was the husband of Miss Maloney. The marriage to Osborne was bitterly de- nied by Miss Maloneys family but Os- borne produced the proofs.
 The marriage was performed by Jus- tice of the Peace Boyd. Miss Maloney gave the name of Helen Eugenia, her age as 21 and her residence Pittsburg. Osborne said he was Herbert Ogden of Pittsburg and gave his age as 22 He said IL. M. Ogden was his father The witnesses were Miss Marian Graham and Mrs. B. H. Boyd. the wife of Jus tice Boyd.
 For several weeks following Miss Maloney's elopement with Clarkson searchers had a merry chase after the pair which led over two continents.
 When the suit for the annulment of her marriage to Osborne came up, Miss Maloney said that immediately after they were marSied they separated and never lived together as man and wife. On April 30. after a rather sensational hearing before Justice Mccall. in New York. the marriage was annulled.
 To-days marriage was quietly cele- brated in St. Catherine's church. the Rev. Stephen M. Likens officiating. The full Catholic ritual was used. Only the intimate members of the two families were in attendance.
 MT. Maloney. father of Mrs. Osborne made the following announcement fol- lowing the wedding: "The above action on the part of Miss Maloney and Mir. Osborne is taken with the full sanction of the Catholic church.
 Osborne. it is said. lately accepted the Catholic faith.
 No record has so far been found or produced to show that Clarkson and Mrs. Osborne were ever married. It was said that they were welded in Montreal but this has been denied.

TENANTS LOSS IN BURGLARY
French Court Decides Owner Of Prop
erty Is Liable.

erty Is Liable.
From the Journal.
To Comtesse de La Poeze has just been
granted 1000 francs damages against the
proprietor of her apartment as compen-
sation for a burglary committed in her
apartment during her absence after she
had confided the key to the concierges
with instructions that they should watch
over the safety of her belongings.
On July 30. 1905. an apartment rented
by Comtesse de La Poeze, SO Rue de
Lille, was broken into during her absence
and some valuable jewels were stolen.
The burglars were soon afterward ar
rested, and 1t was. found that one of them
was the son of the concierge into whose
care the apartment had been given. When
the burglary was committed the con-
cierges were absent on a holiday, and
the key to the apartment had been in
trusted to their son
The courts Judgment declared that the
proprietor of the house is responsible for
the acts OF his concierge. and that the
Comtesse de La POeze was acting in ac-
cordance with Partisan custom in putting
her confidence in the concierges. who
had been placed in position of respon-
sibility by the owner of the house.
Consequently the court admitted the
comtesse's claim in principle. but reduced
1t from 5000 francs to 1000 francs.

WARDEN MAKES AN ADMISSION
WISCONSIN OFFICIAL SAYS HE
GAVE FALSE TESTIMONY.
Makes Explanatory Statement Be-
fore Senatorial Primary 1nvesti-
eating Committee.

MADISON, Wis, April 3.-Chief Game
Warden James w. Stone testified before
the senatorial primary investigating COM
mittee yesterday that his testimony was
false as given before the committee three
weeks ago about the distribution of $500
of Senator Isaac Stephenson's campaign
fund. Mr.. Stone Informed the committee
that the game wardens raised $1,000 and
gave it to Gov. James o. Davidson for
his campaign fund.
When Chief Warden Stone appeared
about three weeks ago he told the COM
mittee that he gave Deputy Warden H. A.
Bowman $500. when, in fact, he handed
him $1.GJO. He testified falsely, he said,
in order to protect Bowman from show
ing that he received SO large a sum. 1t
developed that the evening following his
first testimony a meeting was held at his
home ana three deputy wardens agreed
to assume having received a total of $780,
which, in fact, they never received. The
deputies, Stone said, had not kept their
agreement.
In Three Installments.
The $1,000 campaign fund presented to
Gov. Davidson. Mr.. Stone declared, was
delivered in three installments. Stone
testified that when he delivered the first
5000 in an envelope the governor asked
MIN what it was. Stone remarked, ASK
me no questions and I'll tell you no lies"
The governor, according TO the witness
'obeyed orders.
AS far as Mr.. Stone knew. Gov. David
son never solicited a campaign contribu
ton.
