MARITAL TROUBLES ARE
AIRED IN POLICE COURT.

The marital troubles of Walter
Merry and his wife, Jennie, Of 81 FIRE.
linghuysen avenue, were settled for an
indefinite period today in the First
Precinct Police Court, hen Acting
Judge Elmer Freeland made an order
compelling the husband to pay his
wife SO a week. 1t was also suggested
BY the court that as most of the fur
niture in their home is not yet paid for
that the instalment house be notified
to take it back, to save further trouble.
Merry seemed pleased with the verdict
of the court, but Mrs. Merry openly
said that she thought her husband
could easily give her more.
According to the story told by Mrs.
Merry, the couple have been married
four years. Mrs. Merry averred that
her husband courted her two years
while he had a wife living and from
whom he was not divorced until q few
days before he married her. She ad-
mitted to the court, however, that she
knew several months before her mar
rage to the defendant that he was q
married man and a assisted him in
obtaining his divorce.
Merry testified that the trouble vas
caused by his wife, who continually
remained at the home of his sister-in-
law, Mrs. Mary Green, who lives in
the same house. He declared that
when he came home all would be In
disorder and there would be nothing
for him to eat. Mrs. Merry denied
this and said she fed for protection to
her sister because her husband had
threatened her life.

Jersey Girls Pupils Where KEEP
tOmaniac Worked Freely
in New York. +,

NEW YORK. May 25.-The Riverside
School for Young Ladies', known as the
''Whiton and Bangs School, is all up
set today by the presence in the school
and the neighborhood of numerous city
and private detectives who are look
ing into a long succession of small
thefts.
1t is the opinion of the police that
the stealing, IL 1t has not been done by
a pupil with a tendency to- klepto-
mania, must nave been done by a maid
who has had unusual chances for loot
ing the bureau drawers of some of the
thirty pupils.
The daughters of many men of
wealth and prominence are on the
school rolls. Among them are:
Miss Marjorie walbridge Brown. of
Plainfield, N. j.; Miss Violet Joslyn.

Mabel Boardman, of Washington, head
of the National Red Cross; Miss Grace
C%ortelyou, daughter of George B. Cor
telyou, and Miss Hope Kingsley,
daughter of the president of the New
York Life Insurance Company.
Detective Flynn says hat the fear
of a scandal in the school is about as
strong as the desire to Ind out the
identity of the thief, and that between
the two HI is almost unable to make

KEY MAN" AGAIN MAKES
UNWELC0ME APPEARANCE.
RObberies Reported Prove Bur-
glars New Activity.

Judging from the robberies reported
to Captain Carroll, of the detective bu-
reau, the key man is active again.
For a short period the activities in the
key line had been stopped and no rob-
berries Of this nature a been reported.
Anton Wallin, of 3 Ridgewood ave-
nue., declared to the captain today that
his home was entered some time last
night with the aid of a key. The house

thing. Clothing from the bedroom was

about. Among some of the things so
far accounted for as being missing are
a diamond ring with the initials A. w.

COURT
JUDGE CHOOSING.
IS CONSIDERED
Discussed at Peace Conference
by Thomas Raeburn White,
of Philadelphia.

MOHONK LAKE, N. Y, May U.s.
Thomas Raeburn White, counsel of the
registration commissioners of Philadel-
phia, discussed at the seventeenth an
nual meeting of the Lake Mohonk con-
ference on international arbitration to-
day, "A Plan for Choosing Judges of
the International Court of Arbitral
Justice"
THE project to establish an Interna-
tional Court of Arbitral Justice" said
Mr. White, twas the most significant,
and in many respects, the most import
ant, act of the second Hague confer
ence. The form inc structure of the
court were agreed upon, n It failed
of adoption only because of inability
to agree upon a method Of appointing
judges. This inability to agree was due
to the fact that all claimed h right
to be equally represented in the court.
Men Must Decide.
Let us consider the matter, on prin-
ciple. Irrespective of past experience
how ought the judges Of an interna-
tional court of arbitral justice to be
chosen. This depends much, IL not en-
tirely. upon the object desired. Upon
this there is no difference of opinion.
What the court must be II It fulfls the
hope of its friends is a judicial body.
1t must not negotiate: it must not COM
promise, it must decide. What the
world expects is a court which will ad-
minister justice. not reconcile differ
ehces.
mo reason is perceived, however,
why the members of the court should
not be appointed from among nomf-
nees suggested by the nations, by the
president of the conference or a single
person or small committee chosen for
the purpose. subject in any case to con-
1rmation by vote of the conference. BY
this means the judges would owe their
| appointment and confirmation to a
world body, and would unconsciously
feel a responsibility and allegiance to
that body, or to the world in general,
rather than to their own nation alone.

PUBLIC SERVICE INSTALLS
NEW TROLLEY FARE BOX.
Conductor Need Not Garry Big
Supply of Change.

Anew fare box was installed today
by the Public Service railway on a
number of the cars On the Mt. Prospect
and Central avenue lines. The latest
receptacle is so arranged that the con-
ductor has to turn a crank after a
coin is deposited. This motion registers
the money and it drops in the cash box
below. The conductor is supplied with
a key for the new box so that he may
open it at any time and extract what
change he needs.
If this scheme works the conductor
will not be obliged to carry the amount
of change he uses during the trip, but
can draw on the same money deposited
in the box. II the device proves as
good as the officials of the company
believe. it will be installed on all cars
on Public Service lines.

 Tucson Star: Although they had expected to store large portion of their hay crop, Allison Brothers, ranchers of this vicinity may find that their huge hay barn, con structed recently in tucson, is not needed this season for storage pur. poses. When harvesting of the first crop was started, the big barn which was erected with a capacity of HOO tons was intended to con tain d large portion of the crop, while waiting for the high prices of the latter part of the year. The demand has proven so much greater than had been anticipated that there is little probability of any necessity for storing any DOT ton of the crop arising. Grain hay is bringing SIS a ton in Tue. son at present while alfalfa hay is commanding $l4. Deliveries art being made by the Allison team slers of the rate of about fifty tons per day. The present intention o' the ranchmen Is to make a cutting of alfalfa on their valley ranch every thirty days, approximately.
 Tucson Citizen: From all in dications, hay and grain will he cheaper than usual to the consumer in Tucson this year because of tht large acreage planted locally anC in the contributing districts of tn, territory, and also because of tht excellent growing season.
