soon as the professor was made free man by divorce.
 "It was on February 8 last that my heartstrings were snapped. On that day I met Professor Peck in his off, flee at Columbia University. I ask change in his affections. I'm mar ried now,' he replied. My heart was broken. I'm not vindictive at all in entering suit against Peck. The man I idealized though he proved faith less to his promise, I still admire.
 He is the ideal man.
 'Tt was in 1899 when I went to work on the staff of the New York Commercial Advertiser that I first saw Dr. Peck. It was a year and a half after we met that I learned he was married. That was through a letter he wrote me. He wrote me lots but most of the time spoke of his senti- ment over the telephone. During the years that followed we met constant ly Finally a divorce was in sight. Dr..

JONES' CENSUS ENUMERAT0RS
 WORKED WITH FINE TOOTH
 COMB ALL OVER BRIDGEPORT
Postal Service DeVotes Itself to Special Checking up of Census
 Takers Work
Less Than 100 Names Are to be Added Though II Letter Carriers Have Been Seeking Omissions More Than Week

That the enumeration of the pop ulation of Bridgeport by the census takers under the directions of Nathan ifel Fl. Jones has been exceptionally accurate, is demonstrated from the re- suits attending special checking up scampaign conducted by the local pos tai seyvice.
 Seventy-one letter carriers attached to the three local stations have been more than a week running down stor- ies of faulty enumeration, yet they have completed their work and un- earthed less than 50 cases where the registration has not been made. These include families in several instances, yet the whole number who have not been counted by the official enumera- tors, and have been brought to light through the efforts of the post of flee department, will aggregate less than 100 Today MT. Jones closed up his work in connection with the cen sus-
 State Supervisor William B. Bailey of New Haven has worked in cooper ation with the postal service through out the state in the census taking. Bridgeport with it's big cosmopolitan tpopulation presented one of his grav est problems. Yet with the aid of the local postal off1c1aIS ne mapped out the various routes and assigned his spolyglot enumerators to their respec- tive districts with excellent results. More than a week ago by direction of Postmaster Marigold notices were posted at the post office and East Side and West End stations calling the attention of the carriers to the fact that it was to their interests to see that the city had been we'll can- vassed by the census takers. They were instructed to investigate along their respective routes, and learn of every instance possible where the enumeration had been faulty.
 This entailed considerable extra effort on the part of the carriers, for their mail was not such as to bring them to every house every day, yet

Acknowledges He is Unable to Work Because He is Weak From Continuous Smoking Begs For Mercy When Arraigned in City Court For Burglariz-
 ing Cigar Stand

Physically and mentally 8 wreck from lncessant cigarette smoking, and acknowledging his inability to work be- cause of his slavery to tobacco, Louis Chr1stianson, aged 16, begged for mercy in the city court today where he with half dozen other youths of the East End were arraigned for de- predations upon cigar stand in the ball grounds, Newfield park.
 Christianson admitted he smoked a pack Of 20 cigarettes a day, but the police say he used five times that number. His own mother in tears at her sons disgrace said she had striven in vain to make him mend his ways and secure steady employ ment.
 Christianson is of medium height, but emaclated and hollow eyed. From childhood he has been an incessant cigarette smoker. Even last night, when he was locked in a cell, he ob- ta1ned cigarettes from a comrade in distress, and smoked four of them be- tween the hourly trips of the door man through the cell tiers.
 Christianson is one of a gang of a dozen who have ripped boards from the fence encircling Newfield park and footed the candy and cigar stands in the early evening. The last two visits were made on May 25 and May 31. On the occasion of another visit the youngsters are suspected of hav- ing set fire to the grandstand, for the watchman discovered good sized blaze just in time to prevent costly fire.
 Late yesterday the police arrested Christianson, aged 16, of 150 Hewitt street; John H. Massey, aged IA, and Harry Massey, aged 15, of 695 Con
 
 149 Hewitt street; Patrick Malaidy, of 214 Drew Place; George H. Miller, aged IT, of 324 Carroll avenue, and Robert F. Brown, IT, of 138 Boards ley street.
 Brown has a previous record. He was sentenced to 10 days in jail for theft of a pair of trousers. Malaidy and Perry were turned over to the probation officer for year, while the other four were remanded to the cus- tody of the probation officer until Sept. 12. If their reports until then are satisfactory. they will be dis charged, otherwise they will have to face the Superior court for burglary
 Young Christianson, the cigarette fiend. ]. the second of as fann.J of six boys, the children of carpenter with the Barnum & Bailey circus. His mother said she was unable to man. age the boy and could not promise trouble again.
 He gave his promise to quit cigar cites, and Judge Wilder instructed Probation Officer Garfield to. watch for violations of his word.
 Detective Hall rounded up the gang of youngsters. Christianson tried to hide from Hall behind a pile of lum- Der at the detectives approach, and his actions aroused Halls suspicious. He taxed Christianson with the New field park burglaries and Christianson readily admitted it. The losses at the park, suffered by the proprietors of the stands, aggregated about $20 and the boys and their parents agreed to make it good.

SENATE CALLS
 FOR PROPOSED
 RATE ADVANCES
.inStructs Interstate Commerce Commission to Send Report
 Giving Full Information
Special from United Press.

Washington, June 3.-The Senate coday adopted a resolution by Bur- ton, Republican, Ohio,) instruct1ng the Interstate Commerce Commission to send to the Senate a report giving full information as to the proposed ad- vances of rates. and to furnish 100 eX- amples of how leading commodities are affected. Senator IaF'ollette an- nounced that he would speak on the subject tomorrow.
 It was estimated today by officials of the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion that the new commodity rates filed by the New York Central cover ing traffic from New York to St. Paul. The heaviest increases are on asphalt, oysters. pitch and tar. Other increases are below ten per cent.
 The commission has not had time to compare the old and new tariffs filed by the Pennsylvania. Baltimore & Ohio the increases will average the same as the New York Central Practical ly every road north of the Potomac and Ohio rivers and as far west as the Missouri river has now indicated its intention to increase its commodity rates before July 5th.
 Nothing has been heard as yet by the commission as to whether the roads operating in the southeast or on the Pacific coast intend to follow the example set by eastern anu InluUie western railroads.
 The opinion was expressed today that the Pacific coast roads would not in- crease their rates because there is al- ready much more criticism of the high CT rates to the intermountain States than to coast terminals and also be- cause of the competition.
 The Memphis. Tenn. grain and hay association today filed complaint with the commission against all the rail- roads in the Mississippi valley, alleg- ing that rates on the commodities dealt in by the association were such as to discriminate buyers at Memphis and against shippers from Ohio, In- diana and Michigan points. to the ex- tent of from 5 cents to g cents per Tnn r,or1pdS
