SHOW INCREASE

Washington, Nov. e
Deaths from accidents, caused
by automobiles and other mo-
tor vehicles, excluding motor
cycles, increased decidedly in
1920, as compared with 1919,
the census bureau announced
today. Deaths due to motor
vehicles last year averaged
within the death registration
area of the United States 10.4
per cent per 100000 of popu-
lation, as compared with "a
per cent in 1919.
Approximately 5000 per-
sons were Filled last year by
motor vehicles in the death
registration area, which COM
prises 80 per cent of the pop
ulation of the United States.
The bureaus figures, however,
show that the automobile Is
not nearly so dangerous as in
its early days. In 1915 there
were two deaths to every
1000 motor vehicles, while
last year the ratio was IL per
cent.
The death rate from motor
vehicles last year was highest
In California. amounting to
21.1 per 100000 population.

WAS APPOINTED TO THE
FEDERAL BENCH IN 1906

Denver, Colo, Nov. 2.-Judge
Robert f. Lewis of the Fourth fed
eral judicial district. comprising
the state of Colorado. who, 1t is
understood, will succeed the late
Federal Circuit Judge William c.
Hook, was appointed to the federal
judgeship in 1906. He had served
as district judge in Colorado since
1908. prior to his appointment to
the United States court.
Among his important decisions
was one handed down in 1914 af-
fecting water rights OF states over
streams originating in the state.
in the decision in the case of the
Pioneer Irrigation company Of Ne
braska against the state engineer
of Colorado, handed down in 1914,
Judge Lewis hold that the state
in which river has its source does
not have the exclusive right to the
water for irrigation purposes His
decision ordered the state engineer
of Colorado to divert no more wa
ter from the river than would
leave twenty-nine feet in the
stream where it crossed the state
line from Colorado into Nebraska.
Another casa which is still pend
ing in the circuit court of appeals
is one in which Judge Lewis
granted the Denver tramway the
right to increase its fare from five
to eight cents.
Judge Lewis Is Ga years old. He
was born in Cass county, Mo-, and
was graduated from the Westmin-
ster college at Fulton, Mo. At
ter being admitted to the
bar in Missouri in 1880, he prac-
ticed law in Clinton, Mo. and
served a term as prosecuting at
torney of Clinton, Mo, In 1896 he
was republican candidate for the
governorship of Missouri but was
defeated at the election.
Shortly afterwards he came TO
Colorado, in 1903, where he has
since resided. During the war
Judge Lewis gained prominence by
the strictness OF the requirements
which he demanded for the grant
ing of applications for naturaliza-
tion, once refusing to grant citi-
zenship to an alien because he con.
sidered him an "agitator and
soap-box orator.
On several occasions in handing
down decisions he has scored rad
icalism and has several times de-
nounced members Of the Industrial
Workers of the World.

Matrimonial Agencies Where

Berlin, Nov. 2.-The numerous
matrimonial bureaus of Berlin,
where spouse may be had for
the payment of 10 marks registra-
ton fee, are doing a rushing busi-
ness. The advertising columns of
the newspapers are being utilized,
prospects are being bombarded
with letters and circulars extoll-
ing the advantages and virtues of
the several bureaus are being scat

The marriage literature makes
its principal appeal to the "home-

in much greater demand in the
marriage market than women.

The man became very indignant
and wrote a scornful letter about
it to his favorite newspaper.

The financial arrangements are
agreed upon before the marriage.
One young man who accepted
a much older woman as wife after
she had assured him she had
money to support them, brought
suit for divorce alleging he had
been deceived and that the woman
really had very little money. The
woman admitted she had misrep-
resented her income but declared
she felt justified because of the
lonely life she had been living,
with no opportunity to become ac-
quainted with marriageab men.
While the young, attractive girls
who make application for husbands
are comparatively few, according
to the agents, scores of young men
apply for wives, virtually always
with the stipulation that they must
be wealthy or well-to-do. Former
ly the chief women applicants were
servant girls. Shop girls seldom
patronize the marriage bureaus.
Scores of marriages are made
through the medium of the mat
rimonial bureaus every month, and
their popularity has steadily in
creased since the war, which left
the German women in a large and
conscious majority.

PASSAGE CANCELLED
ON LINER AQUITANIA
BY BRITISH PREMIER

London, Nov. (by the As
ISOLATED Press. - Premier
Lloyd George has definitely
cancelled his passage on the
steamer Aquitania, on which
he was to have proceeded to
the United States November 5
to attend the Washington con-
ference. This fact became Of
ficially known here tonight for
the first time.
Cancellation by the premier
of his passage is considered a
favorable rather than an un-
favorable sign of the progress
of the Irish negotiations. The
Interpretation placed on 1t is
that Mr.. Lloyd George hopes
that a few days delay in his
departure will enable him to
see a settlement reached. or
at least the basis of an agree
mcnt reached, which can be
worked out during his ab-
sencc. In this connection i'm
portance is attached to the fact
that Sir James Craig. Ulster
premier, is coming Saturday.
