STERN OF THE GRANITE ExcAT1NG
TO KEEP SUBWAY PLEDGES
Acting Mayor Says $60,000,0O0
Will Surely Be Appropriated

Acting Mayor Mitchell mad a word to say
yesterday about the subway construction
matters now in the hands OF rhe Corpora
ton Counsel and the transit committee OF
the Board OF Estimate and on which bids
viii be asked soon
The Board Of Estimate he said, has
pledged itself to spend s60.ooocoo. or TO
authorize the expenditure of that sum for
subways this year, and it will do what it
has promised
AS TO the statement of Chairman Wilcox
OF the Public Service Commission. that the
advertising for bids was awaiting action by
the Corporati Counsel Mr.. Mitchell said:
I do not wish what 1 say to be construed
as in any sense d criticism of the Public
Service Commission What 1 am sure Mr..
Wilcox meant was that these matters were
in Mr.. WaJson's hands pending the getting
together of the transit committee of the
Board Of Estimate with the commission as
to advertising Furthermore. the plans
have not been in Mr.. Watson's hands for
more than two weeks. although ii TOOK two
years to draw them.
The plans, he added were intricate and
needed careful study. He said he believed
that the tri- borough route, minus the pro
posed extension in The BronX, the Canal
street loop and the Observation-Disclosures
route in Brooklyn, would be the first to be
advertised for. The trunk lines, he thought
should be paid for by the city and the eA-
tensions by the property holders benefited

Yesterday. They had been away six weeks

Senator Depew expressed himself as en-
thusiastic over the attitude Of French
investors toward American securities
About three years ago" he added.
France began 10 look with favor upon
American securities. and French bankers
tcok about 100000 000 worth Then the
Frenchmen began TO read up on Ameri-
can stock exchange prices, and when the
panic came in 1907 the Frenchman, acCus-
toned TO fiucruations of but points, saw
z fluctuation Of between % and so points
or this side OF the Atlantic. Thereupon
the FrenChman stopped taking our securi-
ties. He became scared and began to sell.
Since then q process Of education has been
going on in France.
The Frenchman is finding out that no
matter what the fluctuations, American
bonds are always good investments. The
French are also beginning to look with
ties. like steel There has been still an
other effect Of this process of education.
The Frenchman speculating on the Bourse
and making or losing from ! TO per
cent found that in the boom Of 1908 he
could Jump into Wall Street and make
from 20 TO 80 per cent. He has also dis
covered that he could lose at the same or
greater rate"

RULES WRITER I'M CONTEMPT
No Imprisonment, However, if
Alimony Arrearages Be Paid.

Harry B Needhanl, a magazine writer,
was ad5udged guilty Of contempt of court
Yesterday by Justice Putnam, of the Su-
nrene Court, Brooklyn. Mr.. Needham is in
arrearage of alimony awarded TO his wife,
Mabel Alexander Needham. in her suit for
a divorce.
The decree was granted on February 5,
and it gave Mrs. Needham the custody Of
the eight-year-old daughter, and Mr.. Need
ham was ordered to pay his wife $40 a week
for. her maintenance and for his daughters
education. Recently he asked that the ali
nonv be reduced from $40 to SO week,
alleging that his income as a magazine
writer was uncertain and that at the most
If would not net him more than $1,000 a
year.
The Needhams were married on Septem-
Der 4, 1899, but parted three years ago.
Under a private agreement he paid her
certain amount weekly, but for year he
is alleged to have been delinquent in pay
ing aIimony.
In his memorandum Justice Putnam said:
"As the decree with the demand of ali
mony on June IA, 1910, was personally
served on the defendant the order TO
show cause why defendant should not be
punished for contempt could be served on
defendants attorney. No sufficient reason
for defendants failure to comply with de-
cree appearing. the motion to punish de-
fendant for contempt is granted. Since de-
fendant is in default and has not rendered
any of the arrears of aIimony his motion
TO reduce the same is denied. but without
prejudice to another application therefor
after payment of alimony in arrears
Mr.. Needham will have a reasonable time
in which to pay the arrearages, so that the
question of Imprisonment is not troubling
him now.

AVOIDS ALIMONY BY MOVING
Justice Lehman Sorry He Can
not Punish Henry G. Moore.

Justice Lehman. in the Supreme Court,
came to the reluctant decision yesterday
that he could not punish Henry g Moore
for contempt of court for alleged failure TO
pay his wife alimony Mr.. Moore. who is
the son of the late head of Moore & Sinnott,
distillers, was divorced by his wife in Penn
sylvana several years ago. and was or
dered by the court al the time TO pay her
1898 SO a month alimony.
To avoid paying, it is said. Moore moved
out of the Pennsylvania jurisdiction into
New York. His wife followed him and OBJ
tained a Judgment in the Supreme Court
here for $4,000 arrears Of alimony, the court
ordering him to give a bond of $4,000 and
pay his wife 81, 400 month until the arrears
were wiped out. This he is charged with
failing to do, and his wife asks that he be
punished. The court said:
'I have with great reluctance reached the
conclusion that the papers upon the appli-
cation are insufficient TO allow me to order
such punishment. . 1t is very doubtful
whether the court has any equitable power
to enforce payment Of aImOny by foreign
Judgment, except as such power is given by
the Code Of Civil Procedure. This power
is expressly given by Section 1172 OF the
Code of Civil Procedure, and, think, under
that section the court has the same equity
power in regard to the enforcement of for
eign judgments upon which an action has
been brought in this state as it has in re-
gard to matrimonial actions in this state"
Moore's lawyers interpret the decision as
meaning that no state can irnprson q man
for not paying alimony directed by the
courts of another state-that II can only De
collected as an ordinary money Judgment
Moore enjoys an income OF Sz6co year
from his fathers estate, it Is SAID the
principal being kept from him by what mas
