Special Dispatch to The Cal. NEW YORK, Dec. 14—The name of ude Converse, daughter of Rear Converse of the United States navy, was brought into unusual promi- nence to-day in the hearing of a remark- able lawsuit at Flushing. The defendant clubman of Manhattan and very wealthy, who is be- ing sued for 33000 for professional ser- vices by Dr. Thomas H. Allen. Two other society women were also named in the case with the same promi- nence as was the admiral's daughter. They were Mrs. Dunn and Mrs. Gibson, full names and residences not disclosed. Because of the pecullar nature of the case, the suit was brought in Flushing, as brought out in the proceedings, live in New York City. To have the case heard where there would be less chance of publicity, Dr, Al- len had technically assigned his suit to Eistel Meyerhoff of Flushing. The hear- ing was before Supreme Court Justice Keogh and & jury. At Washington to-night Admiral Con- verse denied that Herrmann had pald any bill of any kind for his daughter.

I got $40 a week from my wife, but what is that for a gentleman to live on?" This was the statement made to-night by Baron Max Zigfried von Schweidler Schwartzenburg, who, separated from his wife, formerly Miss Julia Keidel, daugh- lionaire, has come to this city to demand his rights. He wants Keidel to support him in a manner befitting his station. The Baron says he married Miss Keidel in New York nine years ago, having met her while she was traveling in Europe with her parents. ‘“‘After the marriage my wife and I went abroad,” he safd. “My father-in-law al- lowed us all the money we needed during the first year. We spent considerable time in Paris and Monte Carlo. I recall now, as I speak of it, that I lost $12,000 in the Casino while there. But that was a mere bagatelle. You see, I had always thought that Americans who wanted titles wére willing to pay for them. I know titles only reasonably good that have brought big money. I figured that mine was worth millions. For this rea- son I was willing to sacrifice all my in- terests in my family estate. In all these nine years I have been allowed only $220,000 by my father-in-law.” The Baron is living in a rooming- house. The separation between his wife and himself took place about a year ago. They were living in New York then. Be- cause they had no money, he said, his wife and their two children returned to her father's home. The Baron says he is a lieutenant in the Kaiser's Fifth Hussars. He fears the publicity of his present affairs will result in his expulsion from the army. —_——— Tem Per Cent Wage Increase. BOSTON, Dec. 14—Independent woolen manufacturers in this State, Rhode Island and Connecticut, employing about 50,000 operatives, announce that they will fol- low the action of the American Woolen Company, which recently decided to ad- vance the wages of the 30,000 hands in its mills 10 per cent on January 1 | | WO STATES FRON FOUR TERRITORIES Advocates of Joint Admission Are Victorious. e Caucus of House Repub- licans Takes Final Action. Measure Adding Two Stars to Flag Will Be Passed at This Session. WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.—The Repub- lican members of the House, in caucus to-day, unanimously declared in favbr of admitting Oklahoma and the Indian Ter- ritory as one State, and by a vote of 110 to 65 declared in favor of admitting Ari- | zona and New Mexlco as one State. Both | statehood questions are to be contained | in one bill The conference which resulted in this action took place immediately at the con- | clusion of the House session and occupled | an hour and a half. The opposition to | the programme was directed against the joining of Arizona and New Mexico, and | it is understood that Adams of Wisconsin and Tawney of Minnesota were the only speakers on this side. The programme of the leaders was pre- sented at the outset by Hamilton, chair- man of the Committee on’ Territories, in | a resolution which he offered. It declared it to be the sense of the conference that one State be made of Oklahoma and the Indian. Territory and- 6he State of Ari- zona and New Mexico, and that the Com- mittee on Territories be requested to formulate this plan in one biil. The Hamilton bill, already introduced, contalns the necessary provisions to meet this plan and undoubtedly will be the measure reported by the committee. Hearings on this bill, %on the question of embodying a constitutional amendment prohibiting the sale of liquor in the two Territories, were begun to-day. Aside from this question the bill is practically in shape to be reported. The liquor hear- ings will not be hurried, and the plan now seems to be to delay reporting the bill until after the holiday recess. When it is reported a rule will be brought in for its immediate consideration by the House. The conference had not proceeded long when the debate was limited to five-min- ute speeches, and this action caused com- plaint by those opposing the admission of New Mexico.and Arizona. Speaker Cannon took the floor and spoke vigorously for the two-State plan. After’Adams and Tawney had opposed it, Grosvenor of Ohio took the opportunity to read a number of newspaper clippings giving an account of what he termed a “junket” which a number of members of the House had taken through the Terri- tories last summer, at which time they had publicly stated they would oppose the admission jointly of Arizona and New Mexico.

First Payment Is Made on Property and Deeds Are Recorded. Famous Gold Producer Is Now Owned l_)y Millionaire Senator. Epecial Dispatch to The Call. LOS ANGELES, Dec. 14.—Through Los Angeles men who have mining interests in El Dorado County the news has been received here that Senator W. A. Clark of Montana has purchased the famous /Union mine on the “mother lode” in that great mining center. The first papers | have been exchanged, the first money pald and if reports be true the transfer | has Been regularly recorded at Placer- ville. The purchase price was $1,750,000, but the manner in which payments are to be made, and when, has not been made public. The authority for the information is Phil Larkin, owner of the famous Larkin | mine, a short distance from the Union. The Union is one of tne best-known mining /properties in the West. It was formeriy owned by Alvinza Hayward and Charles D. Lane of San Francisco, who worked it to the 1400-foot level, taking out immense quantities of bullion. The story of how the vein was lost, how Hayy ward, who was a spiritualist, took the advice of & medium and sold his interest for a mere trifle, and how the new owners went deeper and struck richer ore than the original owners had even dreamed of, is part of the mining history of the State. The fifty-stamp mill at the Union was destroyed by fire on November 4, and has not been rebuilt and since the flre the mine has not been worked to its full ca- pacity. Eight months ago the Standard 011 people offered $1,250,000 for the Union property, but the offer was declined. The first intimation that the Montana Senator was looking at the property came during his last visit to this State, when the announcement was made that some of his experts were examining gold prop- erties in the northern part of the State, but no particular atte ntion was paid to the matter. : Now comes the statement from an au- thority which here is considered the best that Senator Clark first offered $1,500,000 and the owners wanted $2,000,000, and that the final price was a compromise. 30 OF THRTEE LEAJS 4 REVOLT Incorrigible Youth Takes Initiative in Break for Lib- erty of Reno Chain Gang Spectal Dispatch to The Call RENO, Dec. 14.—A-.desperate break was made to-day from the city chaif gang, in which five of the criminal element of the city succeeded in making thelr escape.
