LOST LOVE
WHEN CASH
WAS SHORT

Measuring affection in terms of the
dollar, Miss Grace Wheeler, of So South
Maple avenue, East orange, the pretty
daughter of Major Emery A. Wheeler,
who objected to occupying an attic
room in his wife's home and started
suit for divorce, told her story of the
marital difficulties Of her parents on
the stand In the Court of Chancery
today.
He only gave me $5 a month when
we first went to East Orange" testi-
fed Miss Wheeler. HE spent his
money on outsiders and deprived us
of the things we needed. He never
gave us anything for clothing or house
hold furnishings. OF course, all these
things make daughter gradually lose
her affection for her father"
.'Have you known him to use vile
language?" inquired Frederick Guild
Mrs. Wheelers attorney.
II have. on several occasions"
"Have you known him to strike your
mother?''
II have. Father was indifferent.
He often used to stay away from
home-wouldn't speak to any one and
acted cross and angry"

DIVIDED IN
FIGHT OVER
TUBE RATE
Commuters Split as to
Whether 2-Cent Raise Is
Justified.

Officers of the New Jersey State
Commuters Association are at vari-
ance on the subject of whether the in
crease in tube fare. from f1ve to seven
cents, on the McAdoo Hudson tubes is
justifiable. This became known today,
Howard Marshall. president of the
New Jersey State Commuters Associa-
ton, declared that he thought the in
crease justif1able, and Roy NJ Robin
son, of Englewood, secretary Of the as
sociation, said that it was not. and
that he is prepared to fight 1t, An
effort will be made to remove Mr..
Robinson's objections.
Thousands of commuters in Northern
New Jersey may become involved in
the difference of opinion, and mass
meetings may result unless the officers
arrive at a common understanding.
Mr.. Marshall is emphatic in his state
ments iustifying the increase and today
reiterated his words of las week when
he said that he would stand by the
company and tell the commuters that
they have no grievance. 1t is under
stood that Thomas r. Creede, e,e of
the most active workers in the leasue,
stands with Mr.. Marshall on the sub
ject.
Mr.. Robinson, however, has decidedly
different views. He said today:
'sNo public service corporation ought
to be allowed to increase its interstate
fares without investigation by and ap-
proval of the Interstate Commerce
| Commission. This is the only wny in
which the public can be informed OF
| the real facts in the case,
I'VE are prepared to carry the fight
to washington ourselves II such
course becomes necessary No plan'
! have been made, however, beyond th'
Wednesday conference.
Every resident of New Jersey wht
buys a communication ticket now has
the privilege of using the ferries free
of charge, but when the tunnels were
opened practically everybody paid the
extra FIVE cents without complaining.
A conference will be held tomorrow
afternoon in the Railroad Club. New
York, at which will be present William
McAdoo and the officers of the McAdoo
lines, and the officers of the local Com
muters' League and the New Jersey
state Commuters Association, of which

The authorities say that the arrest of
ten of last nights disturbers, seven of

matter. Today they are investigating
reports that the attempt to mob the
play was prearranged, and they are try
ing to find If any of the Irish societies
whose members were elected from the
theatre last night are officially respon-
sible.
The audience that contained many
well-known people last night were

NEWARKER LOSES
SUIT AGAINST ROAD

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Nov. 2S--After
several years of litigation Jonathan A.
WI. of Newark, N J., by decision
just handed down by Judge eager IN
the Superior Court here loses his suit
to recover the value of 100000 bonds
with accrued interest of the New York.
Boston and Air Line railroad.
The court dismissed the action on
the ground of doubt of ownership of
the securities. The bonds were those
of the old New Haven, Middletown and
willimantic road, the holders OF which
when the road was reorgsnized did not
convert them into stock as the plan
called for. The bonds were bought up
by White, who in 1905 demanded pay
ment of them. but was refused.

tic chain of relationship was soon es-
tablished.
There is only one family bearing the
name, who came to this country In
1880 from Scotland. 1t Is presumed that
the two brothers, Andrew and John,
became separated soon after their ar
rival, as Andrew settled in New Jersey
and his brother in Southern Michigan.
Both are now deceased.
Andrew Canse, of this city, the old
est living representative of the family
in the East, is nephew of John CHnse,
of the Western branch, as is also James
C. Canse, of Asbury Park. 1t seems re-
markable that two branches of family
who have lived unknown to each other
for a period of over eighty years, in
extreme sections of the country, should
be thus reunited by the shifting of a
