ALDRlcH ON THE. DEFENSE.

Nelson w. Aldrich, of Rhode Island
for years the silent but dominating
force in the United States senate.
has at last been compelled to break
his silence and issue a detailed state.
ment to the country at large, says the
Atlanta Georgian.
The statement is about the Payne.
Aldrich tariff law, in framing which
he was largely instrumental, and was
brought about by the very singing
charges which Joseph l.. Bristow. the
insurgent senator of Kansas, has been
making against the tariff and its /.
mers, and particularly against Sepa-
tor Aldrich.
The Rhode Island senator is about
to retire from public life, and, there
fore, can not have much further in
terest in politics. But the breach in
the regulars defense of the present
tariff which the insurgents have made
is so wide that the former are max.
ing every effort to fill it.
They found that the tariff, revised
upward, was in such danger that it
was necessary for the father of il
to come to the rescue. Accordingly
Senator Aldrich was prevailed upon
to issue probably the first controver
sial statement. of his career.
The controversy RACES around the
schedule on manufactures of rubber
not otherwise provided for, whic
contained in paragraph 463 of the law
This schedule was increased from
80 to 30 per cent. ..tl,.ils-1-
Senator Bristow CHARGED that Sena
tor Aldrieh is interested in a large
rubber trust, and for this reason had
tue increase MADE.
Senator Aldrich admits that he E.
interested in rubber company. but
denies that this was the cause Of the
increase. He says taat his COMPANY
deals only in crude rubber and is
therefore, not interested in the tar
on manufacturers. and that the in
crease was made at the suggestion o
treasury experts in order that III,
rate on articles under paragraph As:
might be made uniform with that or
similar manufactures mentioned else
where in the bill.
omitting any consideration Of Al
drich's personal interest in this parnc
ular schedule, his reply must be a dis
appointment to the defenders Of tb
tarin.
The insurgents have all along charq
Cd that party pledges were broken. fl
tbat the tariff was revised upward in
stead Of downward. ana Senator A
drich will now confirm this charge b

CHURCH SCANDAL
ENDS IN DIVORCE
Final Decree Sought by Preacher
Who Eloped With Widow

OAKLAND. July 1S.-A sequel to
scandal that caused much dissension
among the members of the Methodist
church South. of Alameda, several years
ago. developed today in the granting
of a final decree of divorce to Katie
McClaskey, wife Of Rev. Walter
P. McClaskey, former pastor of the
church. The cause of the divorce was
McClaskey's fondness for Mrs. Eleanor
Bross, pretty widow of an Alameda
printer, who sat in one of the church
pews until her affection for the cler-
gyman got the better of her discretion,
and she eIoped with him.
Mrs. McC1askey secured an interlocu-
tory decree of divorce more than
year ago. but when it came to setting
her husband entirely free so that he
could marry his affinity, she refused.
She did not apply for the final decree,
and McClaskey, who is now in southern
California with Mrs. Bross, had At
torney r. B. Tappan obtain the final
decree today. Judge Wells signed 1t.
The McClaskey-Bro ENHANCEMENT
made much stir in the church circles
of Alameda at the time. Mrs. Bross
was the widow of George Bross, by
whom she had three children. Nicolas
key had five children. By the decree
of divorce that was signed today. Mrs.
McClaskey was granted the custody of
these children and $50 a month alimony.
Sadie A. Schultheis, wife of DR.. Char
les f. Schultheis an Oakland dentist,
was granted a final decree of divorce
today. Mrs. Schultheis accused her
husband of being altogether too gay,
going out at night frequently in auto
mobiles on joy rides.
Suit for divorce on the ground of
desertion was begun by Maria L. Frei-
tas against Joao l.. Freitas.

FLEA Death RATE
INCREASED BY OIL
Sticky Fluid Used on the Ala
media Streets Destroys Man
Eating Insects

ALAMEDA, July 1s.-The mosquito
and dea population of Alameda has
greatly decreased and the comfort of
the human population Of the city has
increased correspondingly since the
municipality began sprinkling oil on
the streets, according to Street Super
intendent Y. n. FrOdden.
The sticky fluid that is being used to
preserve the public thoroughfares is
deadly 10 the pesky flea and mosquito,
FrOdden says. The oil lays the dust in
which the flea found its happy jumping
ground, and the oil which runs into the
cutters destroys the breeding places
for mosquitoes that were afforded when
water from sprinkIing wagons once
commonly used settled in pools in the
cutters.
The oil also has been destructive to
weed growth in the cutters in which
the mosquito thriYed. The abatement
Of the flea and mosquito plague was
observed by employees Of the street de-
Dartment soon after the sprinkling of
oil on the thoroughfares began.
1T is not a matter of common
knowledge that the oiling Of our streets
lessons the flea and mosquito nuisance,
but Il is a fact nevertheless" said Su-
perintendent Frodden. Men who have
worked in the streets sweeping the
dust know that the dust is a favorite
summer resort for the biting insects.
since we have been using oil on the
streets the men find hardly any heas.
The oil that flows into the cutters has
destroyed many breeding places Of the
l77osollftoes. and the odor of oil is also
not to the liking Of the mosquito and
causes the pest TO go elsewhere.

student Paper IS
STOPPED BY Dean
Plans of Management to Estab.
Iish Rival TO University
Organ Nipped in Bud

BERK ELEY, July IS.-The Univer-
sity Daily. the paper Of the summer
session students. was suspended today
by an order Of Dean Charles H. Reiber,
OF the faculty, because of the alleged
fact that George Burnham, manager of
the publication, had entered into con-
tracts with Oakland and Berkeley mer-
chants to continue the paper through
the, fall term Of the university in op-
position TO the Daily Californian, the
ohisial organ Of the student body of the
university.
The alleged discovery of the meth
ods Of Burnham We're said TO have
been made by D. T. Babcock. on the
business STAFF Of the Californian, who
found that year contracts had been
made with the manager of the summer
session paper by merchants Of this city.
Burnham was formerly manager Of
the Californian but at the end of the
college year the executive committee
OF the student body made a change of
management and appointed Roy Shurt-
lef TO the position.
ACQUAINTANCE VALUABLE
It is said that Burnham, on account
OF his acquaintance with merchants,
who still presumed that he was con-
nectedl with the college paper, was
able 70 sign contracts for the year
for advertisement matter in the sum-
mer session daily.
These alleged proofs of Burnhams
scheme 10 run an opposition paper to
the Californian next term led Professor
Reiber TO suspend the summer paper,
and il viii not be printed on the cam
under the ~ Er1r-T
Frank Reiber, son of the summer ses-
sion dean. and s. Woodwork, a uni
Versity student, We're members of the
editorial staf OF the daily but knew
nothing OF Burnham's schemes.
The executive management of the
college paper and other student ac
tiviUies is in the hands OF Milton T.
Farmer. graduate manager of athletics.
He said today:
KEPT PLAN SECRET
"Burnham devised a plan of starting
"a rival paper to the Daily Californian,
for years the organ Of the student body.
but kept this plan TO himself, until it
was discovered by officers of the stud
ent body In the execution of the plan,
Durham was inadvertently aided by
Professor Reiber. VINO gave him per
mission to operate a paper during the
summer session.
He was further aided by the fact
that he was manager Of the Californian
and known to many of the merchants,
who thought they We're signing con-
tracts for advertisement matter in the
Californian"
The suspension Of the summer ses-
sion paper viii probably not end the
matter for Burnham, as the students
affairs committee viii probably ask him
for his version OF the story when the
college year opens next month. Burn
ham is still a student Of the university
and would come under the control Of
both this committee and the faculty
committee.
No indication as TO the possible out
come of the matter has been made by
graduate manager Milton T Farmer.
