Richmond Is TO have stiil another
ten story hotel.
Plans are now in preparation for
a handsome new structure on the cor
ner Of Bank and Ninth streets on tn"
site OF the old Rueger hotel. 1t Is
expected that the contract Will be let
within the next few weeks and tho
construction work will begin at once.
Plans for building on this corner
were prepared more than year ago.
The Rueger cafe was moved across
The street preparatory to tearing down
the old building. Just ;before the
work at removing the old building
was begun, William Rueger. who owns
the property and who is to have the
hotel constructed, became Ill and had
to be taken 10 hospital. The plans
have been held up since that time by
his continued illness. Recently. Mr..
Rueger has partially recovered his
health and II IN learned that entirely
new plans are being drawn.
Tho Rueger hotel and cafe WAS for
many years yhe most famous eatina
place In Richmond, and one OK tho
most famous In tho South. The site Is
very advantageously. situated. and the
new enterprise Will no doubt be q
succeeds from the start.

Editor EVENING NEWS:
Taking the public interest at heart
and devoting quite some time to study
conditions of strikers, I would like to
make a few suggestions to our public
officials and the Board of Trade, which
are facts. This grave strike outbreak
has taken place in Paterson and through
the efforts of some newspapers and
prominent public officials, they got our
honorable governor, Woodrow Wilson
to take a hand in it and the result is
that they are near a settlement now.
Why not US do the samef We have
the men in town who are able to lay it
before him and interest him.
There is no necessity In explaining to
ourselves what a strike means to our
town when the most of us are working
people and the business in general is
depended on it.
I would ask the aid Of the EVENING
NEWS to print these few lines in your
worthy paper.
Respectfully yours,

Yesterday afternoon. She was re-
strained by two strangers as she
was about to jump.
The men took her home. she
sobbingly told her story OF despair
and declared to the police that life
was not worth living with a hus-
band who, she said, was almost con-
tinually drunk. Patrolmen Niels
Tonnesen and Chris Hanson immedi-
ately began a search for Yonkula,
but failed to locate him.
The officers learned that YonKuIa
had not been sober for a week and
that he abused his wife and two
children, Annie, four years old, and
Joseph, six months of age. The wife
told the officers she did not want
her husband prosecuted, but they
expressed a determination to get
him and bring him to the bar OF JUS
tice.
The incident created so muc1 or a
stir about Hartford street and Buck
ingham avenue for a time that the
terra Gotta strike in progress there
was Temporarily forgotten. All who
heard the story had only kind words
for Mrs. Yonkula and her children
and expressed contempt for the al
leged drunken husband and father.
