Stowell of Los Angeles. Epecial Dispatch to The Call. CHICAGO, June 28.—Stung by what he termed his daughter's perfidy, Willlam | Cleaver Wilkinson, professor of literature and critieism at the University of Chi- cago and known the country over as the author of a Chautauqua series of text- tooks, his disowned Evelyn A. Wilkinson because of her marriage to Nathan W. Stowell, a Los Angeles millionaire. The tion was due to a romance which re- sulted in Stowell, who is fifty-three years | ola, divorcing his compaion of years and marrying twenty-two-year-old Evelyn. In a letter to the attorney for the for- mer Mrs. Stowell, Professor Wilkinson poured out his feelings in this manner: “You cannot imagine the depths of darkness under which we are compelled to live the remainder of our lives of sad- | ness. We would mfinitely have preferred | laying her in the grave, If wide publi- city in the papers will contribute to the vindication of the injured wife we are willing to suffer it all” To the former Mrs. Stowell Professor Wilkinson wrote: “But, dear Mrs. Stowell, not even you can more heavily reprobate the perfidy of my daughter than doés her father. The cruelty! the cruelty! the infamy of it! 1 sought with all my power to avert the catastrophe and I thought for a few weeks 1. had succeeded; buf, alas! 7 was decetved.

Epecial Dispatch to The Call. CHICAGO, June 28.—The wreck of the T'wentieth Century limited on the Lake Shore last week cost $7.,00. This is the estimate made to-day, following the disbursement by two life insurance com- panies of $266,000 to the heirs of the dead. Of this sum $100,000 was paid on life pol- fcies and $166,000 on accident policies. There remains to be paid by the life in- surance companies for the deaths in this wreck $150,00. How much the rallway company fs af- fected by the wreck is something of a question, hut figures among locab rallway 2nd insurance men to-day show that $15,000 will be paid for the deaths with- cut litigation; injury claims are estl- mated to represent at the present time vithout litigation $200,600; the loss of the stands $25,000, and of the rary car for $10,000. To these figures is to be added for incidental losses not enumerated, such as delay of trains, track repairs, investigation expenses, etc., $25,000. The total of this Is $335,000, which, added to what the insurance societies | have @isbursed makes the money dis- | bursed as the result of a single and quite ordinary wreck $771,000, or three-quarters of a million doliars. | —————— | WIDOW OF CAESAR YOUNG | RETAINS SINGLE STATION and ' | She Has Not Become the Bride ot John | other side for-several weeks, ho ! and Mrs. Young was not of the s & last night the depths | | MILLION IN MONEY | NUMEROUS TRANGFER N CABINET Complete Reorgan- ization Soon to Occur.

CALL BUREAU, POST BUILDING, WASHINGTON, June 28.—Four, and pos- sibly six, of the nine great departments of the Government which are represented in the President’s Cabinet will have new executive heads by this time next year, or perhaps sooner. This does not signify that there will be that number of resig- nations within the ensuing year, but when such resignations as are certain to come take effect there will be a shifting about of other Cabinet officers. Unless the President has reason to change his mind, Charles J. Bonaparte | of Maryland, who will become Secretary of the Navy next Baturday, will succeed Attorney General Moody when the lat- | ter retires a vear hence. It was Mr. Roosevelt's original plan to place Secre- tary of War Willlam H. Taft at the head of the department of justice, but he has another office in mind for him, if Sec- | retary Hay should retire—that is, the | State_portfolio. | “Authoritative arnouncement has been made that Secretary Shaw of the treas- | ury and Attorney General Moody will re- tire next year. Mr. Shaw will relinquish hig office In January or February. & 1 Before leaving Washington for his sura- | mer sojourn at Oyster Bay the President gave out some “tips,” “And it Is now possible to announce that George Cor- telyou, at preseht the Postmaster Gen- eral, will be the next Secretary of the Treasury. The transfer of Mr. Cortelyou | to.tlie treasury. will necessitate, of course, | the appolntment of a new Postmaster | General. | Although reassuring reports are com- ing from Secretary Hay’s summer home in New Hampshiré, and there is no rea- son to expect he will not be well again soon, his latest illness has led to the gen- eral belief that he will not care to under- take his official dutles again for a long period. Mr. Hay is very solicitous of his own health, and the fear in White House i les is that he will soon go into retire- ment. | There is indisputable authority for the | statement that the President has thought | of asking Elihu Root, former Secretary of War, to return to the Cabinet as Sec- retary of State, but from what was | learned to-day he has about concluded not to do go. Whether bor not'this de- cision is due to Mr. Root's disinclination to re-enter public life remains to be dis- closed. ¢ The President, therefore, is turning to | his versatile Secretary of War, and the indications now are that Mr. Taft will be Sécretary of State. With Bonaparte going to the Depart- ment, of Justice and Taft to the State Jepartment, the President would have to name a new Secrotary and another: 8scretary of War. | | | B4 URHURT N FALL FROM FAST EXPRES Not a Broken Bone Found When Child Is Picked up.

The wedding of an exclusive society maid and a clever Western artist, whose romance budded beneath the moss-hung trees of Monterey; the nuptials of a San Franciscan, who, while pursuing studies at Johns Hopkins, lost his heart to a Baltimore belle, who had become a trained nurse; and the wedding of an American girl in London, at which the American Embassador, Whitelaw Reid, LOUISE PARROTT well known here, assisted, were among the notable social events of yesterday. .

Yesterday as the angelus rang the hour of noon, pretty Marie Louise, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Louis Parrott, became the bride of Francis F. McComas, the artist who came to California seven years-, ago unheralded, but who has since forged his way to the forefront of Western painters. The service, read by the Rev. Dr. Clampett, took place in Trinity Church— an ideal sanctyary for a day wedding. be- cause of its splendid stained windows, through which the sun sent a glorious glow of red and amber. The bride entered the church on the arm of her father, preceded by her single attendant, Miss Christine de Guigne, and by the ushers—Enrique Grau, Charles Fleld, Dr. Harry 8. Kierstadt.-and Athole McBean. The groom, attended by Willis Polk, mét the party at the altar rail. The bridal gown was, fashioned simply, a yoke and drapery of rare rose point, and a-court train ot fvory satin lending it distinetion. From her soft brown hair, worn pafted, fell a veil of tulle, held in place by & cluster of orange blossoms. Lilies of" the.

From out the tangle of ferns there blazed an Tonic cross of splendid color—lending a living touch to the green things of the forest.. ‘Through the reading of the ceremony, the organ whispered an offertory, which at the conclusion burst into the glad strains of Mendelssohn's march. And it was a radiant bride that left the altar on the arm of the man she loved, smiling to friends as she walked down the aisle. After the cerefmony, a reception was held at the Richelieu, and a breakfast served. At.the bride’'s table-besides the bridal party—were: Mr. and Mrs. Parrott, Mrs. Willis Polk, Mrs. H. S. Kierstadt and Mr. and Mrs. Parker Whitney, the latter the sister of the bride, and quite as fair. : The artist and his bride left for the south last night, where they will spend a few weeks among the orange groves. Returning, they will spend much of the summer In and about Monterey, whose cypresses Mr. McComas has made known world—and under whose enchant- ade he woo:d the maid who yes- v gave herself into his keeping.

A wedding is always an affair of mo- mont, but when the element of high ro- mance tl.reads through it, then it becomes a personal thing—for all the world mel- lows under the glow of love. Hence the interest in the nuptials of yesterday. e S E. Avery McCarthy Takes a Bride. L0OS -ANGELES, June 2§.—At high noon to-day Miss Susie Howard, one of the prettiest maids of the exclusive set in the south-—and a member of one of the oldest Californian families—became the bride of ¥. Avery McCarthy, the cerdmony being celebrated at the home of the bride on West Twenty-fifth street. The bride, ‘a beauty of the southern type, with midnight eyes and hair, was exquisite in her nuptial robe of ivory gatin, lace and chiffon. She was attend- who visited in San Francisco during the winter and widely entertained. The service was quietly performed, only close friends attending, a reception and wedding breakfast following., Mr. McCarthy and his bride left to-night for a trip to the north, after which they will prepare for a year’'s travel abroad. Returning, the former San Franciscan will build a home for his bride in Los Angeles, in which hospitality—for which the south is famous—will be dis- pensed. ot e Dr. Topping Weds Eureka Maid. EUREKA, June 28.—The wedding of Frank B.

WASHINGTON, June 28.—Dr. Richara Follis of San Franecisco and Miss Louise Riggs of Baltimore were wedded here to-day. The ceremony was the culmination of a pretty romance that commenced a few years ago In the Johns Hopkins Hospital of Baltimore, where Miss Riggs was taking a course as a trained nurse and Dr. Follls was a graduating physiélan. Miss Riggs is a daughter of a wealthy Washingtonian, but she longed for a useful life, and decided to live it. In 1903 both she and Dr. Follis hecame students at the hospital. Dr. Follis was graduated a year later, and Miss Riggs became chief nurse of the Johns Hopkins Training School for Nurses. Dr. Follis later went to San Francisco, where he | visited for a time with relatives, among whom are James | and Clarence Follis, his brothers, and the Floods, who are cousins. Returning to Johns Hopkins he ‘was soon afterward appointed one of the medical staff of the college. Miss “Riggs did not resign from the school until yesterday, when she took the train for Washington to meet Dr. Foilis, who has been here several days at the New Willard Hotel. Strange to say, the love of the nurse and the doctor sprung into being and ripened in the unromantic atmos- phere of the operating room, where Miss Riggs assisted the doctor in difficult surgical work. The wedding was a quiet affair and only a few friends were invited. Clarence Follis came East for the cere- mony. Dr. Follis says he will, after returning from a | guests.
