DISTRICT AKO
COUNTY COURTS

Following a very odoriferous line of
testimony from which tho public was
barred by order of Justice of the Peace
Corson. Nuo olsin was yesterday
bound over to the district court under
tho charge of seduction.
Combating the testimony of Sofia san
chez. the prosecuting witness. was the
testimony of the defendant and that of
Turbicdo Giron. but the court thought
there was enough merit in tho case to
refer it to the district court and a
jury. Both tho prosecuting witness and
tho defendant gave their ages as 25
years.
Joe Tenario and Francisco ouinores
were yesterday sentenced by Justice of
tho Peace Hart to spend ten days in
the county Jail and to pay costs of the
/ prosecution. Both men pleaded guilty
to stealing from tho Rio Grande rail-
way company coal TO the value of one
: dollar.
| Two divorce actions were filed yes
to-day in the county court.
Mary Duran charged John Duran
with non-support; they were married
in Pueblo in the month of December.
1906, and have threo children OF the
ages OF 10. and years.
l
against George r. Cretzer charges nom
support; they wero married at Pueblo,
July 10, 1919.
In the district court yesterday an in
terlocvtory decree of divorce WAS or
dercd entered in favor of Antonia Cor
dova from Fidel Cordova. The ground
of the action is cruelty: 1t was de-
creed that defendant pay $50 tempor-
ary alimony and $50 for attorneys fec.
Harry Sobcrheimer, a lieutenant in
the United States army medical corps.
at present being treated for tubercu-
losis. sued his wife Edith for divorce
Tho action was brought in tho
Pueblo county court though they were
married in New York City. April IA.
1910.
Tho wife came back with an appii:
this issue was had before Judge Mirick
yesterday. Tho testimony showed that
the wife IN her own right is worth
from Sis. 900 to 5000
Tho court refused to allow her any
almony.
Another similar case of alimony
hearing in tho same court yesterday
was that growing out OF the divorce
suit OF Stanley C. Crane against
at Chicago. September 10, 1918. Mrs.
Crane was seeking alimony, but the
testimony showed that as a nurse she
is earning $40 n month. while her hus-
band who is being treated in a sani-
torum for tuborcular trouble, and who
was in tho Marine corps during the
war. is receiving but $40 a month from
the government. Her petition was de-

deemed 1t to be to their selfish ad-

merits Of the proposition submitted for

with tho result stated. even tho ac-
complished by misrepresentation and
with tho knowledge that another vote
of tho people OF tho state upon a like
proposal cannot legally be had until
November of 1922. the commission feels
that tho question of its further ac-
tvitios, or even of its further existence.
should now be decided by the lcgie-
laturo and tho governor.
Various plans for securing tho con
struction of one or moro of the tun-
nels referred to have been proposed.
Ono that seems to have met with
most public approval. and to be prac-
ucablc. would be thru the creation of
improvement districts by an act of
tho general assembly with tho author
ity for constructing of such tunnels
Tho commission feels that IL should
not formulate or urge upon the logis-
lature or upon the administrative Of
ficcrs Of the state the adoption of any
plan of procedure to secure transporta-
tion improvements by and for the
state. until the preliminary and funda-
mental question has been determined
by you az to whether the etatc should
go forward in the work of improv-
ing transportation conditions or should
leave that problem entirely to the rail
road companies which not only have
made no transportation betterncnts in
the state for many years. but on the
contrary, have reduced railroad milo
age and operations in Colorado. The
commission should be discontinued
unless 1t is adequately maintained and
the general policy of an aggressive ef-
fort to maintain and improve exist
ing means of transportation Is to be
heartily approved and supported by
the Legislative and executive authori-
ties of the state
