TROOPS CHASE BANDITS. t Action Follows Reports of Out- laws’ Activities. ownsville, Tex., June 17.—Revival bandit activity in the lower Rio de valley last night resulted in brous action by authorities, which f interpreted today here as presag- a determined attempt to nip the odical recurrence of outlawry in bud by dealing with the maraud- on American soil. foon after reports were received it bandits appeared near San Benito, eral detachments of troops were t to deal with them. Motor cars e commandeered in accordance h pre-arranged plans and two com- jes of the 26th Infantry weer dis- ched from Harlingen to Olmito, ten le north of Brownsville, with or- s to cut off the bandits’ etreat oss the Rio Grande into Mexico. lanwhile, another force of two com- ies of infantry sent from San Be- o earlier in the night to investigate borts that the Joe Scott ranch had n attacked, found their quarry ten es east of San Benito. A running Iht took place in which, according Imeagre reports available here, three xicans were killed, while the Amer- n force suffered no casualties.

To him belongs much credit in keeping the Brooklyn team in the running since the start of the 1916 season. Not alone has Daubert played a great game at the initial station, but his batting has been sensational and has won many games with his big stick. In talking about Daubert the other day Manager Robin- son said: “I have seen number of 2 a first sackers in my day, but never saw the equal of the man who holds down first for the Superbas. Daubert can do anything and do it well. Talk about Hal Chase in his best days! Why, Chase never saw the day that he compared with Daubert, and that is saying some. Chase is an individual star and always has been. Daubert is a team worker. It will be many years before we see his superio ever. He is worth $50,000 to the Brooklyn club.” Photo shows Daubert in the act of throwing. deal with all outbreaks and that any crossing bythe Americans would meet with armed resistance.

SWELLING OF HEART NOT AMOS’ ILLNESS Income $1 a Minute, But High Prices Annoyed Him New York, June 17.—Amos F. Eno was no hero to his valet. Edmond Bigaut, a bronzed soldier of France, who for several years acted in that capacity to the millionaire whose will is being contested, was a witness in the Surrogates’ Court yesterday. Big- aut’s testimony is considered of great importance by the contestants because of the constant opportunity he had to observe the words and actions of the testator, whose mind, it is contended, was not sufficiently strong to resist the undue influence which it is al- leged was exerted over him, So important, indeed, di@ ‘hey Te- gard Bigaut that the Paris War Office was requested to send for the former valet in the trenches and give him a furlough that he might come here. He will return to the front when he finishes as a witness. Bigaut left the employ of Mr. Eno in the summer of 1915 when his coun- try called, although he knew that by leaving he would forfeit a §5,000 leg- acy payable only in case he was in the employ of Mr. Eno at the time of the latter’s death. That is the kind of patriot Edmond Bigaut 's. Objected to Laundry Item. He quoted a railroad ticket agent in France as venturing the opinion that Mr. Eno was “crazy,” because he had made several inquiries about the cost of tickets to Rome. At Jekyl Island Georgia, where Amos R, E. Pinchot, his nephew and Mr. Pinchot's family were his guests, Mr. Eno displayved the me spirit of penuriousne: He sent for Pinchot, said Bigs and told him, T like you, but will pay your expenses. Mr. Eno's par- ticular objection was to several items on a laundry bill. their visit to Jekyl Tsland 1915, Bigaut testified, Mr. Euno other evidence of closenes ordering strawberries, or two and liked On in gave After he tasted one them. “Don’: eat {any more until you find out how much | they are going to cost,” Bigaur ad- vised. The price was =bout $1. “They’re not good and too stiff,” de- i cided the man: whose income was $1 a minute. It is the contention of the contest- ants that the mind and memory of Mr. Eno were already impaired when Le went to Europe in Janua 1914. Going from Nice to Rome, Mr. Eno, despite the suggestions of his man, insisted on going to a second or third class hotel, having already travelled second class from the south of France. There were no accommoda- tions, and he sat up and waited geveral hours for a room. In Rome, Mr. Eno got sick thought he was going to die. He ordered Edmond to bring him his strong box, from which he took out a paper. “That is my will. T want you to give it to my brother Henry Eno,” he said. He also gave Bigaut six checks to deliver to the persons whose names were written on them, if he should die. “Mr. Eno, did yvou make out one ior me?” the valet asked. “No, but I have provided for vou in my will,” Mr. Eno replied. ‘“Look at it if yau like.” Bigaut found him- self named as a beneficiary. That was the 1914 will, under which the contestants insist the testator’s estate should be distributed. But Mr, Eno did not die then. At Nice, said the witness, his em- plover made “much noise about the prices” which the hatel charged, and he said he would cut short his visit there. In Naples he thought of changing his quarters, but did not. because it would have cost him $1 to move his baggage. Eno’s Father Slept in Tub, Bigaut will continue his testimony Maonday. An earlier witness yesterday was Francis G. Walenger, employed for several years as valet by the late Amos F. Eno. He said that one day Mr. Eno told him that he could have a large part of his estate and $250,- 000 in cash. The next day Mrs. Humphrey, a sister, asked Walanger whether he “was going to keep those things my brather gave you?” “No, he can bave them back,” said the valet magnanimously. Walenger said it was the elder Mr., Eno’s habit to go to sleep In the bathtub filled with water: the only wayv to get him cut was by letting the water run out. and WEDS IN BRISTOL Miss Iva Burr of Bristol and Grove Wetherell Wooding, son of Mr. and Mrs. Wooding of this city, were mar- ried this noon at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Burr of Stearns street, Bristol.

British and French Governments Discuss Nentral Mail Rights London, June 17.—Sir Maurice de Bunsen, under secretary of the for- eign office and formerly British am- bassador at Vienna has made the fol- | lowing statement to the Associated Press regarding the American note protesting against interference with neutral mails, which was forwarded to the French and British govern- ments May 24: Note Being Examined | “The note is being examined by the British and French governmen#s in | consultation. The views of the French | government have not yet been received | in London, therefore it is impossible | to make any public pronouncement | upon the contents of the note. “Meanwhile, it may be pointed out | that the United States lay special | stress on the necessity for expedition | in dealing with neutral mails to oc- casion a minimum delay and to avoid inconvenience to American interests. This point in the memorandum was communicated to the TUnited States ambassador here April 14, explaining that the postal censors had perfected the organization of a separate de- partment to deal with such mails and in view of this Improved organization it is possible to assure the govern- ment of the United States that in the absence of wholly exceptional circum- stances the total delay caused to or- dinary correspondence of neutrais from the time the mails were unload- ed from the ships carrying them to the time they were delivered by the censors to the British post office for transmission to their descination would not in the future be more than three to five days. The British government have been content with this mere assur- ance but every day are attempting still further to perfect the organiza- tion of censorship and they believe that in the future American citizens will have less and less cause to com- plain of delays ir the passage of their correspondence to neutral Eu- ropean countries. “The British government wish par- ticularly to emphasize a readiness to receive from American citizens in- quiries regarding any particular de- layed or missing letter, together with particulars such as the date of the sailing of the ship on which the mails were carried, and in case of registered letters, the registered number on the package, in order that they may in- quire into each case thoroughly and immediately avert misunderstandings and detect lapses in the organization where such have occurred.” ‘DEAD HUSBAND' IS WITNESS IN COURT not Family Spat_P;)duces Skeleton in Kaufman Divorce New York, June 17.—Mrs. Angela Kaufman, who sought to end her matrimonia] troubles a week ago by shooting herself, left the Knicker- Focker hospital yesterday against the advice of physicians and attended the trial of the suit for annulment which Joseph Kaufman braught against her. Kaufman, president of a razor com- pany, sued on the ground that his wife was still married to Jack Buckley when she married him. Mrs. Kaufman was pale and showed the effects of her suffering. Leo R. Prilles, her attorney, told the court his client tried to take her life \\hen! <he heard a rumor that the annul- ment suit had been decided against | Ler. The report was premature, as the case had not yet been tried. Says Husband Paid for Decree. «“Rather than live and be known as the former wife of Kaufman,” said the lawyer, “she tried to take her life. In death, at any rate, she felt she would be known as Mrs, Joseph Kaufman.” Mrs. Kaufman divorced Buckley in Reno, but Kaufman said the decree | was not valid in this state. “I ob- tained the divorce in Reno,” Mrs. Kaufman testified, “simply as a mat- ter of precaution. I believed Jack Buckley was dead. Mr. Kaufman ad- vised me to get the decree to be sure of my status. Mr. Kaufman paid the expenses of the divorce suit and hired | detectives to find trace of Mr. Buckley. | For five years I had heard nothing of Mr. Buckley. His sister told me she | had not seen him, and what else could | I do but believe him dead?” “pead Husband” in Court. Her marriage to Buckley, Mrs. Kauf- ma said was the outgrowth of a love affair that began in childhood. Their | married life was not happy. They sep- arated in 1905 and Buckley disap- peared. The wife advertised in news- papers throughout the country, but obtained no trace of her husband. Convinced that he was dead, she ac- cepted the proposal of marriage made by Kaufman, first going to Reno to get a divorce from Buckley. Not until her | first spat with her second husband did Mrs. Kaufman learn that Buckley was still alive. Kaufman then threatened to sue for an annulment. Buckley, the supposed dead hus band was in court yesterday to testil: against his wife. He said he had by | chance met Kaufman in this city. i Kaufman said he had believed the Reno divorce legal and denied that .ie had employed detectives to find Buck- ley. He met Buckley two days ago.
