ID DENY DIVORCE
 SECRECY T0R|CH

New York, September 3.--lSpeciaD.- The secrecy which surrounds divorces such as that obtained by John Jacob As- tor, Frank J. Gould and other notables among the rich in society was condemn ed in the supreme court Saturday by Justice Golf as contrary to the best in- terests of the public.
 Justice Golf handed down decision scoring this practice of getting rid of irksome husband or wife by the secret divorce route, in connection with his judgment that Alfred P Leighton, wealthy contractor, is entitled to decree of ab- The court approved a report of referee William Allen recommending that Leigh ton be given a divorce because of his wfe's misconduct with William H. Hub bell. of Warrenton, Va.
 The tral was held secretly before a referee and nothing might have been made public concerning the case had not the lawyers for the two parties request ed that Justice Golf should seal the papers"
 Judge Golf said:
 .The report of the referee should be confirmed and the decree awarded. No further observation would be. necessary were it not for the stipulation and re- quest by the attorneys that the testimony and report be sealed.
 This means that the record of an action at law should be held in invioable secre- cy. This Is the only reason that can be rationally advanced to justify the excep- tion and it is both fallacious and mis- chievous.
 "It is common knowledge that in this state a divorce can be decreed on only one cause-adultery of one of the parties Were 1t the general rule to suppress tes- timony in all divorce cases, it's proprie- ty and usefulness might be defended, but 1t is a gross delusion to attempt to- con- serve public morals by the suppression of the testimony in one case which in hundreds of other cases the meretricious details are publicly narrated.
 This suggests the idea of privilege and favortism. Of all evils which may as- sail the administration of justce this is the most insiduous. The request to seal is denied" .r

TOATTACK POWER OF TREATY. MAKING Case Affects Over Twenty
 Nations fl THE CALIFORNIA CASE
Supreme Court to Decide Whether Government or State Has Juris- diction in Cases of For
 eign Intestates

Washington, September 3.-One of the most serious attacks ever made upon the treaty making power of the United States will mark the opening of the coming term of the supreme coure of the United States next month.
 The Italian government, through It's consul general on the Pacific coast, will argue that the United States possesses broad enough treaty making power to deal with the settlement Of estates Of foreigners who die in this sountry with out leaving wills Public officials from California will contend that the federal government has no such power. and wll ask the court to do what 1t never yet has done, declare a treaty unconstitutional More than 20 nations with treaties simi- lar to this one between the United States and Italy will await the decision of the court. In many respects. the question involved resembles the Japanese school question in California during the Roose- welt administration, and 1t is said that the decision would control the latter ques- ton should 1t ever arise again.
 The case which the supreme court will
 
 settlement of the estate of Giuseppe Chic, an Italian who died in San Joaquin coun- ty Cal, without will but with slO64 in a bank Salvatore L. Rocco, Italian con- sul general in California, claimed the right to settle the estate. So did George F. Thompson, public administrator in San Joaquin county. The supreme court of California decided against the Italian official.
 long array of counsel for the Italian cause has presented a brief of its argu- ment This brief points out that the pres ent case was in litigation in California about the time the Japanese school ques- ton was of paramount interest. It adds:
 While it is not intended to intimate that this may have influenced the de- cision in ths case winch is not put on the ground of the unconsttutionality of the treaty clauses referred to, yet possi- bly, the atmosphere of the state of Cali fornia may have insensibly caused it's learned courts to gravitate toward a view of state rights which seems inconsistent with the later developments of our con stitutional law and even irreeoncilable with prior decisions of the supreme court of the state of California itself D lfs Counsel for Thompsofi in brief field, dwels at length on the power Of the United States to make such a treaty. It is asserted that if the treaty making power can take away from the state the right to provide for the administration of estates within it's territorial jurisdic- ton then there are no reserved rghts in the states as again the treaty making power may overturn our entire scheme of government"
 The brief declares that such broad trea- ty making power would reduce the states to administrative departments or pro- vinces of the federal government and re- duce the federal government itself to President and Senate possessing the treaty making power.

 In an effort to clear Avendias Juarez

 had filed, the troops were set marching
 up and down the thoroughfare. Respect fully the rioters gave way before their
 advance, closing in immediately behind
 them leaving for the police the unpleas-
 ant duty of charging and receiving eacn
 time shower of rocks. At one point in Avenida San Francisco, the popular favor for the army men, was shown by occu- pants of galleries who threw upon the passing column quantities of flowers. Early in the afternoon the main body of rioters was broken into small groups
 which paraded through the streets, halt ling at intervals to listen to a harangue by some member. Mounted police and soldiers could be seen from almost any street to a section in the downtown dis trict, but rarely was any attempt made to disperse the smaller gatherings who joyously continued their work of cam paigning until long after dark.
 Reports of the Red Cross, its rival. the White Cross appeared in the streets at the Beginning of the rioting.

regret exceedingly his decision to
leave the institution.
While no official announcement has
been made it is generally understood
that James Temple, the old college
track coach, will be connected with
the athletic department next year
Mr.. Temple was coach at the college
in 1900-01-02, in the days when Brook
ings was the whole show in track
athletics in this and surrounding
states, and his return will no doubt
do much to restore the college to the
position it should occupy in an ath-
letic way. Mr.. Temple has been
trainer at the government military
academy at West Point since leaving
here, but he always had a warm spot
in his heart for Brookings and will
be glad to return. There is no doubt
that he is one of the best trainers
and track coaches in this country to-
day, and the college is fortunate in
securing him again.
