WOMAN'S ExTRAVAGANCE
 BLAMED FOR UNhAPPINESS

DETROIT, Mich April 1O.--"A lack of knowledge of the value of money on the part of women is the most powerful enemy to domestic happiness that exists" declared Judge Arthur today. when he made public figures showing that 26 per cent of the leases that come before his court are due to extravaganza on the part of wives. Other causes, according to Judge Lacy, are as follows: Faults of the husbands alone, 25 per cent; faults of both man and wife, with extrava- gance~ of the wife as the principal
 trouble, 49 per cent. 7

AMERICAN TUG POTOMAC
NARROWED IN ICE PACK
Naval Craft Is Reported Hemmed In
at Bay of Islands, and May
Stick Until Spring.

BONNIE BAY, n. F.. February r.
The American naval tug Potomac, which
came to these waters to rescue two her
ring fishing craft caught in the ice at
Bay of Islands, is gripped SO firmly in
an ice foe that the chance of her get
ting away before spring is considered
small.
Heavy ice has become packed into the
Guf of st. Lawrence, south to Cabot
strait, and While continued easterly
winds might break it up so that the Po-
tomac could make a nearby har3or, mari
ners believe there is little likelihood that
she would be able to get clear of the
gulf. The prevailing winds are north
west.
The first officer and others of the tugs
crew yesterday walked ashore to Lobster
Head light station. They reported her
hard and fast three mi es off Rocky har
Dor. All the thirty-six men of the Po
are running low.
In order to replenish their supplies, the
landing party last night came to Bonne
Bay and today will drag sled loads of
food back over the ice. The crews OF
the Francis vii ard and the Hiram Low
ell, the two schooners which We're caught
in the ice at Bay of Islands, remain on
board, but arc considered in no danger
as they can reach shore over the ice
pack.

CALLS THE FARE CHARGED
COURAGEOUS ExToRTI0N''
B. M. Purssell Calls Case of Wash
ington-Virginia Railway Com
pany Weak.
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
In The Star of Tuesday is printed d
resume of brief of the attorney of the
Washington Virginia Railway Company,
filed with the interstate commerce COM
suburban line into Virginia and to Falls
Church.
If your printed report of his brief is
correct the case of the company must be
very weak, indeed. 1t consists largely of
the sneers and ridicule of the attorney
directed against the patrons of his COM
pany. But no one seems surprised at
this attitude. 1t only faithfully repre-
sents the spirit which seems to animate
the management of practically all of the
suburban railways of Washington. l
know nothing of the merits of the case to
which this brief is defense, hut J have
occasion to travel into Virginia from tho
18th street and PENNSYLVANIA avenue sta
ton quite often and ] know that ! must
pay five-cent fare to ride to the Nir-
ginia state line, about one mile, and then
another five-cent fare to ride to "Clarks -
on the Alexandria pike, mile further.
Ten cents for two miles or less, and 10
cents more to return, and transfer re-
fused to passengers coming into the heart
of the city at 18th street.
Strikes Poor People.
Hundreds of poor people who live in
Virginia, less than a mile from Wash
ingtons great white shaft, must pay this
company ~ cents for the privilege of
visiting the National Capital. The only
excuse for that 1 have ever heard given
is that there must be two zones" be-
cause of the imaginary line running
down the channel which is supposed To
separate the District from the Oid Do
mtnion.
Washington is the only city in the
United States whose people have to sub
init TO such outrageous extort.on on the
part of a street railway company. When
complaint is filed, an attorney is hired,
who, in substance. says, What can you
expect of these foolish folk? We charge
them but - cents to carry them over tue
river and back, and yet they complain,
and always Will complain, even should
We charge them ~ cents"
1 doubt not the interstate commerce
commiss. will properly rebuke these
silly people for making complaint against
their generous benefactors.
