dropped it. to regain possession
of her baby Yukio, now nearly
three years old, who was adopted
by the Japanese actor and his
wife. The actress claimed that
the actor was the father of her
child.
When Hayakawa took passage
for Japan on the liner Tatsuta
Maru at Los Angeles a few days
ago, he did not know that Miss
Noble was aboard the ship in a
second-class cabin. She said:
'T boarded the ship at Los
Angeles and was prepared to
follow him around the world
if necessary and apologize for
all the trouble I caused him.
1 met him on the deck on the
way here. 1 told him was
sorry and he accepted my
apology. That was all there
was"
Before sailing, the actor told
reporters that Miss Noble had
caused him "lots of trouble and
lots of money" He said:
"The suit that this girl
filed against me in Los Angeles
a few months ago cost me
more than $4,000. I gave her
S4,5OO when / agreed to adopt
the baby. Then after she filed
suit against me, / gave her

On BUS LINE

Public hearing on the bill of

set for today in Richmond. The

Opposition to the permit to. run

understood that Rear Admiral Noble z.
Irwin, who has been on duty as head
of the American Naval Mission In Bra
iii, would be- assigned as commandment
at Puget Sound, but in view of the
fact that this billet has been given to
Rear Admiral Campbell 1t is raImoYed
that Rear Admiral Irwin will be as
signed as commandant of the Ports
mouth Navy Yard as the relief of Rear
be assigned as conmandant of the Sd
Naval District and the New York Navy
Yard, in view of the fact that Rear
Admiral Louis r. de Steiguer, now in
command at New York, will be trans
ferred TO the retired list of the NAVY
on April 1, 1891, due to his reaching
the statutory retirement age limit. It
is understood, however. that Rear Ad-
miral Irwin prefers an assignment at
sea.
Another important place to be filled
during 1881 is that of superintendent of
the Naval Academy. Rear Admiral
Samuel S, Robson, the incumbent,
will attain retiring age on May
10 and viii be placed on the retired list
of the Navy on June /. The name of
Rear Admiral Thomas G. Hart, now in
command Of the Control Force, and
who Is due for o shore assignment, has
been mentioned for the Naval Academy
place.
In addition to those officers mem
toned above, one admiral, i've rear ad-
mirals and one captain, are due for
transfer to duty ashore during 1881.
They are as follows: Admiral Frank
H. Schoheld commander in chief of
the Battle Fleet; Rear Admiral Thomas
T. Craven, commander of the Yangtze
Patrol Force; Rear Admiral Joseph NJ.
Reeves, commander of the aircraft
squadrons of the Battle Fleet; Rear
Admiral Harley H. Cristy. commander
Of the training squadron; Rear Admiral
Grin G. Murfin, commander of Light
Cruiser Division of the Scouting Fleet;
Rear Admiral Walton r. Sexton, COM
mander Of destroyer divisions Of the
Scouting Fleet, and Capt Frederick j.
Horne, commander of the aircraft
squadrons Of the Scouting Fleet. 1t is
possible, Of course, that some of these
Officers may remain in their present
commands until 1892, rumors already
indicating that Capt Horne will retain
his command until next year.
The assignment of Capt. Albert w.
JoElpson, recent head of the Electoral
Commission IN Nicaragua, has been
changed, and instead of commanding
the u. S. s. Pennsylvania, he has
been assigned to command the U,

tired list Of the Navy about May /.
