Senator White was to-day asked what steps had been or would be taken by the news- paper interests which have retained him to test the constitutionality of these laws. He replied: “There is nothing that can be done. Neither the newspapers nor any one else appears to be paying the slightest attention to these laws. Some of the biggest newspapers of the State have been waitihg for months for an action to be brought against them for a violation of either of the two statutes you have named, but no one appears to be willing to come forward and give us a chance to test the legality of this legislation in the g g =4 2 o . b= b= g ® courts.

SAN JOSE, July 24—H. M. N. Spring, who recently disposed of his clothing store and started East to avoid paying Mrs. Emelie T. Spring, who recently obtained a divorce from him, $200 a month alimony, reckoned erroneously. By the decree in the divorce suit filed to-day, all his prop- erty is subject to lien for unpaid alimony. In case the alimony is not regularly paid the property is to be sold and a receiver is to be appointed to take charge of the property and proceeds. The decree is dated June 30. About two weeks ago Spring disposed of his interest in his store to his brother-in- law, F. W. Moore, for $8000, and deeded his real property to his sister “for love and affection,” and that he “may be cared for by her.”” These transfers will now be void, because the decree was signed be- fore they were made. The decree com- pletely upsets the plans of Spring, and it is expected now that the truant Council- man will return to fight the case. S s NEW RAILROAD ASSURED.
