ACCEPT A SUR At ALTAR.

Hundreds OF guests had assembled
for the wedding Of Mary Louise Gard
ner. OF Sycamore, ILL.,, and Benjamin
Nelson. Of Lena, Wis. The wedding
march had been played and the bride
had been escorted to the altar, but the
bridegroom had not appeared. Search
for him was fruitless. 1t looked as
though there would be no wedding.
But Karl Johnson, one OF the invited
guests and former sweetheart OF the
bride-elect, stepped forward at THE
iuncture and said: "I'll take his place
right here and now"
Miss Gardner, with only such hesita-
ton as propriety and maidenly modesty
demanded, blushed and said;
Il always liked you the best, any
way, Karl"
Telephones and messengers were
pressed into service to get the marriage
license Strengthened out, and the two
were then joined by the Marrying
Parson Of Menominee, Justice Van
derborg. Mrs. Johnson now says the
absence OF the other swain was the
mosl fortunate thing that could have
happened.

The census bureau this afternoon
announced the present population OF
Illinois as 5,6Ss,59l; an increase OF
ST., O41, or 1863 per cent. since 1900.
This gives Illinois four new Congress
men under the present apportlonment.
The California states inheritance tax
law in so far as it attempts to tax the in
heritance received by wife on the
death OF her husband, was today sus-
tanned by q decision OF the U. >. SUI
preme Court in the test case prosecuted
by Mrs. James Moffitt, widow of the
Alameda county millionaire.
That claim against the United
States government cannot be assigned
to others was the decision Of the U. 5.
Supreme Court in an opinion today IN
the litigation between the National
Bank Of Commerce, OF Seattle, Washn.,
against the defunct firm OF Gamwell
and Wheeler.
A fire on the top floor OF the Kellogg
Building, on F between 18th and 14th
streets, about $50 O'Clock this morning
caused considerable excitement. The
damage, however, was not large.
After a recess OF two weeks the SUI
preme Court convened today, Justices
Hughes and Lurton moving up to
higher seats because OF the resignation
OF Justice Moody, which became effec-
tive last week. Justice Hughes is now
third from the lowest seat, occupying
the second seat on the left OF the
bench. Justice Lorton moved TO
Justice Moody's seat
Chief John E. WiIkie, OF the treasury
secret service, by order OF Secretary
MacVeagh today was placed in charge
also OF the special Treasury agent and
customs agents. George w. Maher,
who had been supervising special
agent, will be assistant chief OF the d.
vision.
The old adage about not counting
chickens until hatchihg time was az
firmed by the U. s. Supreme Court to-
dav in decision with respect to the
claim of Robert A. Hooe, and Arthur
Herbert, for the building in which the
civil service commission is at pres
ent located. Hooe and Herbert leas-
cd tie building to the government
for $4,000 a year, with the under
standing that the Department OF the
Interior would recommend TO Con-
gress that this be increased to 81, 600.
The department recommended the in,
crease, alright, but Congress knocked
it out of the bill. Meanwhile the
owners OF the building declare that
the commission is occupying the base
mont, which wasn't specified in the
criminal lesses, and they sued the
government for $4,000, representing
five years rent. The court OF ClaIgs
dismissed the case, and the y. >.
Supreme Court today affirmed the de-
cision. ,

Railroad Accident,

Wheeling, w. Va, Nov. 2S.-Balti-
more and Ohio passenger train No. 7,
and the Chicago express, eastbound,
one OF the crack trains OF the system,
was wrecked early today near Weaver.
Two trainmen we're killed and three
we're seriously injured. A number OF
passengers also received injuries.
A yard engine had helped the pas
senger train up the heavy seventeen
mile grade and was backing upon a
siding when the collision came with
the oncoming passenger train, mis-
calculation having been made by one
or both of the engineers.
The crash was terrific. The helper
engine was demolished and the pas
senger engine was derailed and over
turned, as were the baggage car and
smoker

END OF BRAZILIAN REVOLT.

Rio Janeiro awoke yesterday morn
ing with q feeling OF inexpressible re-
lief. The warships of the fleet were
again in the hands OF the government
which Saturday evening sent officers to
take command. Several of the news
paIfers published articles on The
Heroes OF the Rebellion" for the pur-
pose OF creating a sympathetic atmos-
phere. One of the sailors on the scout
ship Bahia denied many OF the reports
concerning the crews Of the various
ships taking part in the revolt and the
differences among the men which we're
said to have arisen. All OF them, he
said. we're obedient to the orders ISIS sued
by the battleship Minas Geroes, and
Jean Candida, the leader, was loved
and respected by the entire navy. At
no time did the mutineers have the
least fear of the destroyers, which would
not have fred upon their comrades.
Nor did they have any fear of the for
tresses. which could have been silenced
by the big guns Of the warships.
A serious situation in the navy Is
possible, owing to the refusal Of many
officers to return to their vessels. On
account of the leniency shown by the
mutineers the officers believe that the
spirit OF discipline has been lost and
fear that the men may again revolt.
Capt. Percira Leite, commander OF
the Barroso, who has been appointed
to command the battleship Minas &C.
raes. went on board the latter vessel to
announce that amnesty had been
granted. but that some of the demands
OF the sailors could not be conceded.
Corporal punishment, he said, had been
abolished, but the question OF an in
crease of salary rests with Congress.
Joan Candida, the sailor who Jed the
mutiny, handed over to Captain Leite
the money and other property OF the
slain officers. The mutineers then
landed. They were Immediately ar
rested. but soon afterward released.

Trial of an ALLEGED Murderer.

Louisville, Ky, Nov 28.-Joseph
Vending, charged with the murder OF
little 9-year-old Alma Kellner, who for
months was supposed the victims Of a
mysterious kidnapping plot, was today
placed on trial in the Criminal Court
here.
The child disappeared December 8,
1909, leaving her home to attend mass
at st. Johns Church. For months she
was supposed to have been kidnapped,
and her father and his relatives offered
large rewards. No trace Of the miss
ing girl, was found until May, 30,
when bones identified as hers, were
found in the cellar OF the St. John s
ParochiaI school. Vending, former
janitor of the church and school, who
had disappeared, was arrested in San
Francisco July 30, charged with the
murder.
The hard fight Of the trial was ex-
pected to come up on the Identification
of the homes. The fragment OF shoe
and gold filled tooth are the two
things on which the Identification may
rest.

He called the general election, the lib
erals won and King Edward appointed
no liberal peers. This may be repe-
tition OF the previous incident. II so,
Asquith's days as a political leader
are ended, for the liberals are almost
on the point Of revolution to emascu-
late the lords.
Asquith has before been accused OF
party disloyalty. ard il he fools his
followers this time, it is a foregone
conclusion that they will throw him
over, as they probably would have
had done before now but for the fear
of disruption OF their organization.

TUCKER WANTS EXTRA SESSION,

Harry st. George Tucker, former
candidate for governor and prospec.
tive candidate for the United States
Senate in next summers primaries,
in an open letter requests Governor
William Hodges Mann to call an extra
session OF the General Assembly for
the purpose OF passing a bill legalizing
the primary system OF the state. This
letter was sent to Governor Mann by
Mr.. Tucker last Thursday morning and
was given to the newspapers for publ
cation yesterday.
Mr.. Tucker calls upon Governor
Mann to reconsider his announcement
that he will not order an extra session
of the General Assembly to legalizc the
primary. The grounds for Mr..
fuckers position are that the decision
Of Judge A. R. Hanckel, of the Nor
fokl City Corporation Court, and
Judge Joseph I. Lawless, OF the Nor
folk County Court, holding that the
present pure election laws Of the state
are not adequate to reach frauds in
party primaries, have exploded the
theory that the primary system is pro-
tectcd by legal safeguards. In view Of
these decisions, says Mr.. Tucker, there
is absolutely no law now to punish
frauds committed by election officers
IN a primary election.

a rather hoarseness Of voice in his

that Gompers, Mitchell and Morrison
are under sen tence to Jail, and at this
time no one would oppose them. The
most sensational feature OF the con-
yention was the announcement OF
President Gompers that there should be
no hard and fast rule governing the
jurisdiction Of trades unions. This
means that the Western Federation OF
Miners will secure charter from the
executive council, and that any or
ganizalion in any industry can now
claim jurisdiction over every worker
in it.
All lines OF the Pennsylvania Rail
road system now lead into the heart OF
Manhattan, to the massive new station

which was officially opened Saturday
night for the through service by way
OF the tubes under the North river.
Travellers coming from the south and
west, who for years have been accus-
toned to disembark amid the sur
roundings OF the old Pennsylvania sta
ton in Jersey City aud make their way
across the Hudson on the ferries, will
appreciate the change. Now they will
find themselves just on The threshold OF

The movement to bring TO Baltimore

conference with Norman +. Mack,
chairman of the democratic national
committee, and Representative Champ
Clark, OF Missouri, who will probably
be speaker OF the next House, adopted
the form OF an invitation which will he

Sensational Petition.

New York, Nov. 2S.-In one Of the
sensational petitions ever presented III
the federal courts the Department OF
Justice today appealed TO the Unised
States Circuit Court TO outlaw the sugar
trust. The combination is characterized
as ruthless monster" which crushed
all it could not control, and the courts
are asked to dissolve it by receiver or
otherwise" and restore to the sugar
trade the old time competitor.
Trust agreements, monopoly, fraud,
craft. and the ruthless use Of power to
crush or conquer independents are
among the reas ons given for asking the
court to end the giant combines activity.
Against the Havemeyers and their as
sociaies who build up the trust, the
government brief says:
They managed and directed all the
affairs and business of the former COM
peting concerns whose shares They held,
destroyed competition. fixed the price
Of sugar, prevented Others from enter
ing trade. and commerce therein, and
forced the retirement OF many already
SO engaged. Enormous profits resulted
and the public was damnified. "
The court is asked TO abrogate all
of the agreements and contracts made
by those engaged in the unlawful
combination and conspiracy, and that
the defendants be enioined from doing
any act in pursuance Of the objects and
plans of the combination.
