DENSE FOG CAUSED
BY SLUSH AND SNOW
Low Temperature Near Ground and Warm Air Above
Responsible For Heavy Mist That Envelopes
City, But Forecaster Promises Rain

Slgsh AID snow coating lLe streets and
avenues are largely responsible for the
density of the fog that today enveIoped
the city This is c0rTob0rated bv the
judgment of The official weather fore
caster. VINO explains that the contrast
between the Iowness OF the temperature
near the ground. and the warmth OF
the atmosphere above Relief IS ex-
pectcd i'm the shape of rain sometime to-
night
.The fog is caused by the low lem
perature from the snow, and the warm
air above said the forecaster. The
conditions are just the reverse of what
they az normally. The cold radiatinE
from the snow condenses the moisture
in the air, not enough to cause rain, but
enough TO make fog.

SAYS DETECTIVES TRIED
TO RUIN HER CHARACTER.
Startling Allegations in Hess
berger Suit.

A charge was made by the defense
in the Hessberger divorce case, which
came up again before Vice-Chancellor
Emery today. that a local detective
agency, in an alleged effort to manu-
facture" a case for the husband, had
been guilty of conspiracy to destroy
the defendant wife's character.
Two specific charges are made by
the husband In his bill, and in support
of these charges there was the evil
dence of a number of private sleuths.
Mrs. Hessberger on the stand testified
that she had been tricked by detectives
into entering a hotel in Broad street.
The other charge was refuted by the
testimony of Charles Wolf, who is an
inspector of gas lamps for the Public
Service Corporation. The detectives
stated that the defendant had been on
July 26, 1907, on South Ninth street,
between Twelfth and Thirteenth ave-
nues, with another man, and that the
gas lamps were out, owing to a storm.

WILL IGNORE ACTION OF
OLD BOARD, SAYS RUMOR.
Village Trustees Get Opinion OF
Legal Lights.

1t was rumored today hat the three
members of the Peoples party in
the Cillage Board Of Trustees, to-
gether with Trustee william H.
Twedell, the member appointed to sue
coed Edward n. LOOMS, had decided to
ignore the action of the old Board of
Trustees in bringing up and acting
upon new business at it's last meeting,
on May 8, the day set by law for the
reorganization of the board. At that
meeting a civil service resolution was
passed giving all village of~fice-holders
life jobs. The trustees will meet to-
night. The action of the four trustees
is said to be based on an opinion rem
dered by former Attorney-General
Robert H. McCarter to Trustee John R.
Weeks, and which was spread on the
minutes of the Board of Trustees at the
last meeting.
