NINE. MODJESkA IS
REPORTED SERIOUSLY
ILL NEAR NEWPORT
Noted Actress Said to Be Near Death
at Watering Place Near Los AM
geIes-Rumor Not Verified

Madame .Modjeska, the famous ac-
tress, who for some years has made
her home in Southern California, on her
famous ranch near Santa Ana, was re-
ported in dispatch from San Fran
cisco, received here at o'clock this
morning, to be seriously ill, if not dy-
ing, at Newport Beach, about thirty
miles from Los Angeles.
1t was reported she had telegraphed
to relatives now in San Francisco to
come Immediately.
Z Owing to the fact that the telephone
exchange at Newport Beach is not in
operation at that hour of the morning,
it was impossible to confirm the report.
Inquiries in Los Angeles were futile.
1t is reported here that the famous
tragedienne was taken secretly to New
port or Balboa several days ago, suf-
fering from complication of kidney
and stomach troubles, and that her
death was expected.
Nine. Modjeska came to California
several years ago, when she virtually
retired from the stage after remark
ably successful career as one of the
most foremost actresses in Europe or
America. She is well advanced in
years, and this fact, if her illness is
anyways serious, would seem to war;
rant the grave fears entertained for

BRITISH WAR DEPARTMENT
EXPERIMENTS WITH AUTOS
One Thousand Men with War Kits and
Guns Transported to Foil
Invasion

LONDON, March 17.-An interesting
experiment was made by the war office
today to demonstrate the utility of
the automobile as a means of rapid
military transportation.
Accordingly, on the assumption that
hostile army had landed at Hast
ings and blockaded the railroad with
troop trains, a relieving force of 1000
men with full war kit and guns was
moved to the scene by automobiles.
Five hundred machines lent by mem
bers of the automobile club picked up
the men and their accoutrements at
the various barracks and then conveyed
them to the Crystal palace, whence the
start was made.
The machines Travelled at the rate of
twenty miles an hour. The lighter cars
with the men took the lead, the heavier
vehicles with the guns and stores
bringing up the rear. Great crowds
gathered to watch the column.

My physicians have warned
me that | must step out of the
harness. They say | have done
enough and now it is time that
was turning over my work to
others"
This is the way T. H. Harri
man, railroad king, builder and
combiner of transportation sys-
TENS, who is now sojourning i'll
Pasadena, tentatively announced
to the world yesterday that he is
to retire as the biggest man in
Wall street.
A decided change for the
worse was noticeable i'll Mr..
Hartman condition yesterday,
and it is believed he will never
again be able to direct the bust
ness of his vast holdings. This
railroad Napoleon is well along
on life's journey, and the last
score of years have witnessed him
working under continual ner-
vous strain.
During the last year the mag
nate has been doing everything
to protect his health and it was
with the hope that his condition
might improve that the western
trip was planned.
Improvement Shown
At times he showed decided
signs of improvement and it was
believed that with plenty of out
door air and abandonment of his
work he might become himself
again. He is not suffering from
any ailment that confines him to
his bed, but his nervous system
has been overtaxed and he easily
becomes excited. His mind is as
clear today, however, as upon the
day when he won his greatest
financial victory, but he lacks the
endurance that characterized his
work during the earlier stage OF
his career.
For the first time within the
memory of those who are in
position to know, Mr.. Hartman
Yesterday opened his heart to sew
eral newspaper men whom he had
summoned through his private
secretary.
He discussed railroad regula-
tions, past correspondence with
President Taft and advice regard
ing transportation matters that he
had given Roosevelt. He talked
freely and with ease for forty-hve
minutes. 1t was not until the in
terview was almost at an end that
he referred to his health.
Answering question touching
upon his future intention IN rail
road affairs Mr.. Hartman said:
Health Failing
physicians have warned me
that | must step out. They say
| have done enough and that It
is now time that | was turning
over my work to others. | have
been playing the game a good
many years. I stayed i'll for the
satisfaction | derived out OF it.
There was something fascinating
about this planning and conquer
ing. I liked it. 1t was a great
game"
Mr.. Hartman would have
probably continued talking had
not DR.. George Dickson, his
physician, advised him that it
was growing chilly and that he
had better go into the house. Prior
to this, however, a servant had
wrapped blanket around the
magnate as he reclined in his
chair.
Mr.. Hartman yesterday informed
his private secretary that he had
something to say to the newspaper
men concerning Mexico and his under
takings in the southern republic. but

BROTHERS ACCUSE
BROTHER OF FRAUD
Edgar Painter Secured Sigma
lures to Lease Through
Deceit, They AlIege

Edgar Painter, who is involved in
several lawsuits with his mother. was
sued yesterday by his brothers, Walter
NJ. Painter and Eugene Painter. who
seek the cancellation of a lease they
charge they were induced by the de-
fendant to sign by fraud and deceit.
The lease is for property at the
southwest corner of Sansome and
Washington streets. Walter and Ed
gar Painter declare they signed the
lease of the realty to their brother, Ed
gar, on December 81, 1906, for 20 years
at 500 a month. Now they assert that
the property is worth $500 a month.
They were persuaded to sign the
lease. they allege, by the untruthful
representation of Edgar Painter that
their mother, Mrs Caroline Painter, had
also signed it and approved of it.
There is another suit pending against
Edgar Painter in which Mrs. Painter
prays for the cancellation of the lease,
also alleging fraud. Walter Painter
owns 3S-1000 interest in the property,
and Eugene Painter $4,000 interest
Besides asking that the lease be can
celed,s the plaintiffs sue their brother
for $4,000 damag ges.
Edgar Painter some months ago pc
titioned the court to have his mother
declared incompetent.
