STREET CAR CASES
WILL BEGIN SOON

Prosecution Of the charges against the
street railway companies Of the District
will probably be started either Wednes-
day or Thursday of this week, according
to Assistant Corporation Counsel Gus
Schuldt, who will represent the Govern
ment. Attorneys for the railway COM
panies will very likely have thoroughly
prepared themselves for defense by that
time, having asked a continuance to do
SO several times since the charges were
filed.
Interest centers in the trial OF the
charges among the members of the local
legal fraternity and thousands Of users
of the car lines of the city are await
ing the outcome of the trials. From
present Indications the charges will be
hard fought by the corporations at
torneys, and 1t may take several days
TO conclude the trials.
Assistant Corporation Counsel Schuldt
has been ready for more than week,
but the stay of time requested by at
torneys for the railway companies has
set the trials for either Wednesday or
Thursday with the probability that the
prosecution will begin on the former
day.
Besides a large contingent of local
lawyers, members of the District Elec-
trio Railway Commission, representa-
of the different citizens associations
and others interested in street railway
legislation will be in court to hear the
testimony and witness the outcome of
the proceedings.

Blind Man Objects
To Paying Alimony

A motion to vacate an order directing
him to pay alimony OF $25 a week to
his wife, Imogene NJ. Cooper. was filed
in the District Supreme Court today by
counsel for George F. Cooper. Of Glen
dale, Nd. who claims he is without
funds to comply with the order.
Cooper. who is upward of eighty years
old, informs the court in his petition
that he is totally blind almost par
alyzed, and Is minus several fingers
He says he is practically destitute, and
that his spouse does not deserve sup
port from him.
The allegation is made by Cooper that
his marriage to Mrs. Cooper is null
and void, as she was already married
to John F. Landers, formerly of the
United States Marine Corps, when he
took her for his wife. He says Land
ers is now living in Cleveland.
The aged defendant also tells the
court that his wife deserted him on
March TO- 1911, after going through his
pockets. and taking all the money he
had at the time. He AYERS he was left
"sick and helpless"
Regarding his financial condition, he
claims he is entitled to a pension OF 500
a month, but on application of his wife
to the Pension Office the amount was
cut in two, one-half now being collected
by her.

Bruce-BroWn Home to
Enter in Big Races
By HARRY WARD.

David Bruce-Browh, the young mil
honaire automobile racing driver, who
made all the Europeon stars sit up and
take notice when he led the bunch
for the first day and was beaten on the
final days run for the French grand
prize race over the Dieppe course
through running out of gasolene, has
arrived home. He Is now preparing for
the Vanderbilt and American Grand
Prize races to be run in Milwaukee In
September.
In discussing his experiences abroad,
Bruce-Brown said:
THE tanks on my car were too small,
and contained only thirty-eight gallons
of gasolene, which was not enough for
a course OF forty-seven and one-half
miles. Both Wagner and myself pro-
tested at their size, but the engineer of
the car I drove said they were big
enough. On the first day I clipped
eleven minutes of Nazarro's record,
and made a record lap in IS minutes 8
seconds. which Is at the rate of seventy
eight miles an hour. The Dieppe course
is fine circuit, with long. straight
stretches, followed by a number of 'S'
turns, which necessitated a lot of escond
and third speed work."
French motorists were astounded at
the dash and vim Of Bruce Brown. Boil
lot, winner of the grand prize race. de-
clared: "Bruce-B Brown Is extraordinary;
he Is the finest race driver / ever have
seen. / know of no man who can ap-
proach him. He also is one of the
squarest and most loyal competitors

REBEL OUTRAGES
FORCE AMERICANS !
TO FLEE MEXICO
Pearson Sawmills Raided
and 200 United States
Citizens Driven Off.

Ell PAso, Texas. July 22.-A special
train carrying 200 Americans out Of a
new danger zone. caused by the shift OF
the Mexican revolution. arrived here to-
day from the state Of Chihuahua.
A decision to close the Pearson saw
mills and wood working plant at Pear
son and bring out the Americans was
reached Sunday morning, after a night
OF terror for the Americans, during
which the rebels began searching their
homes for ammunition and arms.
The American citizens, determined to
protect themselves and families, organ
lied an armed guard Saturday night to
oppose the rebels, and for a time the
situation was critical
Tho rebels looted a number of stores,
including the MADEIRA store of the Pear
son Company, and stole the horses used
on the company's hospital ambulance.
There are several hundred rebels In
Pearson. and the federals are marching
on the town from Chihuahua city. II
the rebels have not all departed for So
nora by the time the federals reach
there q battle is certain In the town.

EXPECTED
TO PUT THROUGH
EXCISE MEASURE

Talk in Senate circles today was that
there would be some surprises when
the wool bill, the excise bill. and the
sugar bill are voted on by the Senate
the latter part of the week.
The bill to extend the excise or cor
poration tax bill will probably pass.
1t has been generally supposed It would
be beaten, but inquiry today disclosed
the Democrats, plus a number of the
progressive Republicans, will probably
put 1t through.
The situation is embarrassing for
some of the Senate Democrats who do
not really want 1t to pass and who in
tended to have 1t voted on after the
sugar bill. They expected the sugar
bill to be beaten. Then 1t could be
said that with the sugar bill beaten
there was no need Of the additional
revenue.
The excise bill, II 1t becomes a law,
will add $25.ooO,0o0 or thereabouts to the
revenue.
will be beaten, but this is rot a GER
tainty. 1t developed today negotiations
had been reopened between some Of the
Democrats and progressive Republicans.
AS result either Senator Cummins CT
gressive wool bill. And. while It is not
expected, there Is a possibility of the
Democrats and progressives yet getting
together on a wool bill carrying moder-
ate duties. The high tariff leaders are
not expected to try to get a wool tiIl
through.
sugar bill It will not be for free sugar
but 1t will be in all probability a bill
striking out the difrerential and the
Dutch standard and reducing the duty
to about $1.6S or $1.7o. Senator Smoot IS
one of the high tariff Republicans who
wants the duty slightly reduced.
AS for the Dutch standard, which In
the days of Aldrich was SO stoutly up
held, and whicn proved so profitable TO
the Sugar trust, 1t no longer has any
friends in the Senate.

Troops to Protect
Town of Nogales
In Case of Battle

Anticipating a battle between Mexi-
can federals and rebels to be fought at
Nogales, N. NJ, the War Department
has dispatched three troops of cavalry
Of the Fourth Regiment from Fort
Huachuca' to the scene.
The International boundary line passes
through the town of Nogales, and Of
ficials believe that fighting in the Mexi-

destructive to life and property in the

In Nogales early today and will insist
that no battle be fought within the town
