Important duties devolve upon the committee of reg- istration and information, of which S. D. Thurston is acting chairman and John Massey an active member. Colonel R.| Weineke of the committee on hotels and accommodations finds that a vast deal of detail work must be done. Letfers and" telegrams received at the headquarters of the executive committee, Grand Hotel, lead to the belief that the throng of visitors in San Franeisco from August 17 to 24 will be larger than the first estimate indicated. Dazzling reports concerning the magnificence of the en-| campment have been widely circulated by representatives in the States of the East and Middle West, San Franclsco possesses great facilitles for giving food and sheltér to a multitude of visitors, but Grand Army Encamp- ment managers must look closely to the system of assigning visitors to engaged accommodations. The crush of incoming travel will begin Saturday, August 15, and continue at high pressure throughout Sunday and Monday. The Southern Pacific and Santa Fe companies are counting on big travel, as | they have positive assurance that the number of Pacific Coast visitors coming to San Francisco will be the largest ever handled on this side of the continent, L e R e i R ) BIG CROWDS RECREATE AT PARK AND OCEAN BEACH Joseph Lucier’s Leg Broken While He Is Watching a Game of Ball. There was a big crowd at the ocean beach throughout yesterday and Golden Gate Park attracted many drivers and pedestrians. Several minor accidents hap- pened, the most serfous occurring to Jos— eph Lucier, 64 years of age and residing at 1317 Folsom street. Lucier was watch- ing a ball game in the park when he was accidentally struck by a ball, which frac- tured his left leg. Lucier was taken to the Park Emergency Hospital, -where Dr. W. E. Stevens set the fractured limb. At the beach Tommy Marlett, 5 years of age, while walking with his father, who lives at 282 Mission street, was attacked by a savage dog. He was badly bitten on the face and was taken to the Park Emergency Hospital, where his wounds were dressed. Mounted Policeman Greggains arrested an automobilist for violating the park regulations. At the Park police station he gave the name of Frank Smith, ana sald he was a banker of Stockton. He de- posited $5 bail and was released to ap- pear before the court this morning. ————— Don't be cheated. Ask for Bank Stock paper.

Carl Peterson, a cook, employed until vesterday at the restaurant of Charles W. ker, at 38 Seventh street, is being searched for by the police on suspicion of bhaving robbed his employer of $30 in cash and a quantity of cigars. According to the police the money. prising the day's receipts, was ed in a box and hidden behind the counter. Peterson, who was on the night watch, is sald to have watched his chance and ab- stracted the box with the money while alone in the place. Marks on the safe, where a large sum of money was kept, indicate that an attempt was made to gain entrance to that also. When the day cook went on watch Peterson was miss- ing, and this, coupled with the disappear- | ance of the money, led the proprietor to the conclusion that the night cook was guilty of the theft. Peterson is a member of the Cooks' and Union and is sald to be well known in the city. Detective Regan, who | is working on the case, is of the opinion | that Peterson is the man who looted a church in the Western Addition some | years ago and was sent to San Quhnlhl for a term. Efforts will be made to iden- com- tify his photograph in the rogues' gal- lery. A close watch will be kept on the | Seattle steamers, as it is sald that Peter- son recently came from there, thought possible he may attempt to re- turn te his old haunts. ADVERTISEMENTS.

RUMORS ANGER FAIR EASTERNER Mrs. Coffin fays Report From South Dakota Is Untrue. Society Woman of Boston Denies She Is Seeking a Divorce. TELSS Mrs. Elizabeth Riker Coffin, a former society belle of Binghamton, N. Y., whose marriage two years ago to Frederick S. Coffin, a member of one of Boston's prom- inent and wealthy families, was a society event of importance, is a guest at the Palace. Mrs. Coffin’s arrival follows | closely upon a’story telegraphed from her former home several days ago to the ef- fect that she and her husband had sepa- rated and that the wife had gone to Sioux Falls for the purpose of establishing a residence preliminary to bringing an ac- | tion for a divorce. The dispatch referred to Mrs. Coffin's operatic ambitions and | told of her first meeting and subsequent marriage to Coffin in the following inter- esting manner: Mr. Co n became acquainted with Miss | Riker while she was fllling an engagement in | New York, and showered her with favors. He { paid for a trip abroad and secured for her vocal lessons from the best of Paris teachers. Then, although he is twenty-five vears older than she, he offered his hand in marriage. The couple made an_extensive tour of Eu- rope. At Monte Carlo Mrs, Coffin became ac- quainted with the brother of Secretary of the Treasury Shaw. She became convinced that she had made a mistake in choosing her life partner, and Mr Coffin, it is stated, will not contest the divorce. F. B. Riker, father of Mrs. Coffin, sald | this evening that it was true that his daughter I: sulng for a divorce and that he expected her home in less than two weeks. She will | live with him. IS NOT SEEKING A DIVORCE. And now comes the denial of Mrs. Cof- | fin, a strikingly beautiful woman, tall, stately and graceful, whose every word uttered in contradiction to the story pub- lished in connection with her marital af- | fairs was emphasized in a dramatic yet sincere manner. To her, so she professed | last evening, the accounts of her proposed | divorce, as conveyed to her in a copy of the previous telegrams by her interviewer, | were startling pieces of news. Not an in- timation had she received during her | Western trip, upon which she is accom- | panied by Mrs. E. M. Brooks of New York, that her name was appearing in public print, and as she apparently medi- | tated over the notoriety she had been un- | consclously receiving she paced hurriedly | up and down her room. She frequently became agitated almost to a point where | a g00d crying spell seemingly would have | been of great relief to her pent-up feel- ings, and then, suddenly pausing in her | walk, she would emit a heavy sigh and laugh loudly over what she was pleased to regard for the moment as a bit of fool- ish gossip, which she was sure had ema- nated from those whom she had regarded | at home as her friends. Discussing the story Mrs. Coffin said: You can say that Mrs. F. S. Coffin of Bos- ton is not seeking a divorce from her hus- band; that she has not been in Sioux Falls preparing for such a proceedings; that it is not her intentions to bring one and that she | has no acquaintance with a man named Shaw any relative of the Secretary of the United | States Treasury ‘KAS PARTED FROM HUSBAND. And then, as some thought of her fam- ily troubles apparently flitted through her mind, her dark eyebrows contracted upon her frowning face and she continued in tones not entirely free from bitterness: And you might as well state also that Mr. Coffin is not a millionaire. Yes, he did have money, and the members of his family are still very wealthy, but my husband is not so fortunate. I never was an actress, never as- pired for fame in that direction, but when a | little girl showed some talent for music, a fact | which my relatives noticed and encouraged me | to develop. Yes, I traveled abroad, and con- siderably, but not at the expense of Frederick S, Coffin. My uncle, A. §. Rennje, and it is | a’ shame to drag his name into this horrible | scandal. paid my expenses ] It is true that Mr. Coffin and myself are | 1ving apart—but what is the use of discussing that subect for it is none of the public’s busi- We have been separated for over two during the greater part of which I have been practically buried in one of the most isolated and horrid places in the State of ‘Washington, as Mrs, Brooks here w testify. What is she doing with me? Why, acting the | part of a mother, my dear parent having died a year ago. Mrs. Brooks has been with me ever since. | Mrs. Coffin proceeded to relate how she first met Coffin at the home of his moth- er and how a mutual affection, despite his seniority in years, eventually led to a marriage, which was celebrated in Grace Church in New York two years ago, and after reviewing their honeymoon abroad, which jncluded travels through all the interesting places in Europe, Mrs. Coffin referred again to the report of her ADVERTISEMENTS.
