WHEY HAS DEAR
HUBBY ARRESTED

Norman Brown, who came to Spo-
kane recently from Idaho to engage
in the mining brokerage business,
has been arrested on a complaint
sworn to by his wife.
When Brown arrived in Spokane
it is alleged that he soon found an
affinity in the person of a woman
referred to in the complaint as Miss
Ollie Doe. He wrote to his wife, in
Structing her to remain in Idaho
until he asked her to come.
Mrs. Brown came to Spokane
rather unexpectedly on the evening
of April 16, and going to an address
given by her husband in his letters,
she was told that Mr.. and Mrs.
Brown were roOming there. but that
they were out.
Mrs Brown did little detective
work and soon located the couple in
restaurant on First avenue. The
story Of that meeting was told in
The Press on the morning of April
Il. Mrs. Brown landed with the
right hand on the jaw of the affin-
ity, at the same time snatching an
expensive hat from her head with
the left. There was a slashing in
spring millinery right then and
there, the like of which is not often

$500 FOR CITY
LAND WORTH
$4,000
ENUMERATED CITY FATHERS
ARE GENEROUS TOWARD
TRACTION MAG.
MATES.

Some light has been thrown on
the plan pursued in the past by the
city government in the matter Of
the payment for street vacations by
property owners being benefited.
by an investigation of the case of
Jay P. Graves and A. L. White, who
have asked for street vacations in
the Houghton & Callahan addition
In all nearly three acres in
streets were asked to be vacated by
these gentlemen, for the purpose,
it was announced at the time, of
building mansions that will cost at
least 100000.
The kind-hearted street commit
tee, consisting of Councilmen Gray,
Ostrander and Mohr, placed the
value Of the land at $500 and rec
commended that the street vacations
sought be made on the payment of
that amount. The council approved
the report, but some citizen in the
meantime reported the matter to
Councilman Dalke. He is in the
real estate business, and proceeded
to make an inquiry, and as a result
found that land in that vicinity was
worth from $500 to $500 per acre.
He said that he would pay $500 for
the ground himself, if he were
given chance to buy it, and be-
lieved it would bring that much I'M
der the hammer, yet the street COM
mittee was willing to let 1t go be-
cause Jay p. Graves and A. L..
White, millionaire Traction men,
wanted it, for the paltry sum of
$500.
Dalke tried to get the city council
to raise the payment to be made
the city from $500 to $1,000, but
lacked sufficient support. He has
announced that when it comes to
the passage of the ordinance for the
final vacation of the streets that
he will fight the payment recon-
mended by the committee and in
sist that the city be compensated
at some figure near what the prop
erty is worth. In this desire Dalke
has some four or five Of the coun-
cilmen with him, and will probably
be able to knock out the figure of
the street committee, if something
does not throw the councilmen off
the track in the meantime.

MRS. STAFFORD DEMANDS
CITIZENS POLICE PROBE
Sees the Finish of Mayor Pratt and
Sullivan in the Final "Show
Down."

Mrs. Philip p. Stafford, s12o7 Oak
street. the brave woman whose
scoring of the police department on
floor Of the city council on the night
Of February % last led to the de-
mand for an investigation, is heart
lily in favor Of the plan to now have
a complete and fearless inquiry into
police methods by citizens COM
mittee. Mrs. Stafford is the chair
man of the natron committee of the
Woman's club, and practically all of
the work that has been done by the
club in showing up conditions in the
treatment of women prisoners has
been the result of her efforts.
She does not take the recent po-
lice investigation seriously and
gave it no consideration, for the
reason that she saw that its pur-
pose was to shield the police and
find excuses for their conduct in
every instance in which they were
assailed, rather than to search out
conduct that might condemn the
police.
The Press has worked in coniunc-
ton with Mrs. Stafford and is ready
to testify to her honesty, sincerity
of purpose and absolute fearless
ness and independence in the effort
to bring forth the truth in regard
to the police. She has given her
time. spared no expense and made
big sacrifices in the work, all for
the purpose Of having the public
know just how bad conditions are
in the city Jail and in the police
regime In general.
In an interview today Mrs. Stall
ford said:
What do think of the report of
the investigating committee? AS
report from an official body it is
worse than a whitewash, and yet
admits conditions to be bad. /
would like to see the report in de-
tail before I give an opinion, But
this l can say: We did not give
one single affidavit to this commit
tee, for We anticipated just the kind
of report they sent in. And in
the first place the testimony | had
and made reference TO on the floor
of the council February 90 could not
all be put before any but private
committee.
'Dr. Mcdowell who was the rep
resentative of the Woman's club on
the first committee, understood this |
very well, as one of the most valu- |
able pieces of testimony We had |
came from patient Of his. He IN
derstood how necessary, how imper-
alive an absolutely private session |
was. Do you think session is pri- |
vate when a stenographer FOR |
THE POLICE is ALWAYS present |

mony? Because of the attitude of |
the other members of the commit |
tee at that time in other matters as
well as regarding private sessions,
Dr. Mcdowell could do nothing else
as man of honor but decline to |
serve as member. Also the other |
matters mentioned before the coun- |
Gil that night have said over and |
over again. both through The Press |
and on different platforms. could |
