THE CLARENDON
HANGING IN
THE BALANCE.
If THE PROJECT CAN BE FINAN.
CED WITHIN THE NEXT FORTY.
EIGHT HOURS THE HOTEL
WILL BE BUILT.

The people of Daytona must de-
eide within the next forty-eight hours
whether or not they wish the Clar-
endOn rebuilt. Strenuous efforts have
been made with in the past few days
to finance the proposition and the
project is now within a few thousand
dollars of success. AS is the case
with every undertaking where rails
ing money is concerned the last few
thousands are always the hardest to
get and on account of the failure OF
the people of Daytona to take the
proper interest in the matter the
entire proposition may fall through.
The securities offered for sale are
first mortgage bonds, bearing interest
at the rate of per cent, payable
semi-annually, and secured by a
first mortgage on the entire Claren-
don property. The building will cost
approximately $4,000, and viii be
fire proof i'll every way.
This proposition should appeal to
our wealthy citizens, who, by taking
$1,000 or $4,000 worth of these secur-
tiles could make the success of the
proposition assured. Some of the COM
mon stock of the corporation is still
for sale and this without question will
prove to be a good paying investment.
Every person owning property in
DaytOna and vicinity should be deeply
interested in the success of this hotel
and they can make the proposition
a success by coming forward and In
vesting their money in these gilt
edge bonds, in amounts of $500 and
upwards, or by subscribing to the
stock issue in amounts of 800 and
upwards.

NEW RULES TO KEEP OUT
UNDESIRABLE CHINESE.
UNLESS YELLOW MEN CAN SHOW
A CLEAN BILL WILL NOT BE
ALLOWED TO CROSS THE BOR-
DER.
DER.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1 - Several
stringent new rules designed to keep
undesirable Chinese immigrants out
of the United States go into opera
ton today by direction Of the Depart
ment of Labor and Commerce. Under
the new regulations Chinese bound
for foreign ports by way of New
England are to be inspected at the
original port of entry, Vancouver.
Under the system of inspection at
Vancouver those Chinese who cannot
give a satisfactory account Of them
selves will not be allowed to cross tie
International border. Those who
really intend to go through the United
States will be put under heavy bond.
1t is believed that the new order
will reduce the traffic in Chinese
through New England to a consider
able extent.

FREE WITH FUNDS

Chicago. February s-city Engineer
J. Ericsson told the Merriam commis-
sion which is investigating municipal
expenditures today that he had never
been encouraged by the officials above
him in his efforts to prevent the vast

occasion when he said 100000 was too
much to pay for new pumping sta

THE sooner l got out of the employ
of the city the better it would be for
me-
He said that he intimated that Mr..
Ericsson would be better out of the
city's service. When Mr.. Ericsson was
told of the mayors denial he said:

OhSlAUGHTS OF BEAR PARTY
? CAUSE BIG SLUMP IN STOCKS

New York, February 3.-The onslaughts
of an aggressive bear party, together
With gathering distrust of the Industrial
business ana political outlook brought
about violent declines ON the New York
stock exchange today with United States
Steel leading the downward movement.
In all sales totalled 1.e72,000 shares with
one-fourth of this aggregate in steel
shares which early in the afternoon
broke to 49, the lowest level reached since
September last. The price today rep
resented a break of points from yester-
days closing point, of ~ from yester-
days high, and of 1874 points from jan
uary 8, when the high record Of this year
was touched, and 17ls from the price of
October 2.
Chief interest centered in the decline
Of steel, but there was violent liquida-
tion Of nearly every stock in the list
carrying prices down from to s points
with sensational breaks between sales.
Because of the nervousness of the
market, brokers cautioned their clients
TO remain within call, ready to put up
additional margins II necessary, and many
whose accounts were on ragged edge,
closed out. taking their loss rather than
Pisk further declines.
The net price changes do not register
che full effect on prices owing to the Of
fective rally which occurred in the clos
ing hour when the bears bought freely
TO garner the days handsome profits on
the short side. At the low point, which
came early in the final hour, declines
ran all the way to points
The violence of the movement and the
volume OF the trading. following so long
and extensive a decline as has occurred
during the past several weeks. caused the
day to be regarded as probable culmina-
ton of the decline with revival likely to
follow.

s. New Yak, February Mrs. Mary
Blair Br~kaw was today santed sep
aratfvn rom her husband, v. Gould Bro
kan millionaire, and wasawarded ali
sFaony of $4,000 year. Theaeoision was
handed down in the suprehe court at
Mineola by Justice Putnam, More whom
the case was tried. The sepaation was
glanted on the ground of deserion
Mrs. Brokaw had asked a sepantion and
$3.50 month \ alimony. She charged
cruelty and abandonment and in Ter trial
told how, as she alleged, she had been
gcted upon by servants. Her husba,d had
neglected her and sighted hei she
claimed, and finally abandoned her She
sxsrfbuted his conduct to unreaSning
and 1njustifiable jealousy and bad tenn
pen
On cross-examination Mr.. Broktw's
counsel tried to show that her husband S
jealousy was justified.
Mrs. Brokaw persistently denied that
1Ae had ever carried on f1irtations or in
eny way given her husband cause for
jealousy.
S Justice Putnam in his decision today
alter stating the possible grounds upon
which a separation might be granted
reviews at length the evidence pre-
scented.
THE investigation of the martial diff
5ferences has been full and exhaustive
said the court. 1.-THE proofs disclosed
an increasing incompatibility. intensified
by nervous irritation on the part of Mr..
Brokaw. He is shown, however, to have
provided literally for his wife and was
especially solicitious for her welfare.
In view of the charges made 1t should
be stated that the evidence does not show
that the defendant was habitually intern
perate. On the contrary, he appears to
have been moderate in that respect"
In conclusion the decision says:
THE plaintiff is. therefore, entitled to
decree of separation on the ground of
Mr.. Brokaw's conduct rendering 1t I'M
safe and improper to live with him and
because Of the act of abandonment and
separation by Mr.. Brokaw in December,
1903. 49,.
Considering the status in life of the
parties and the circumstances Of the sep
aration, the court fixes alimony to be
paid at $4,000 year. payable in equal
monthly installments."
