"It obeyed this law anS It filed its protest against such a confiscatory measure by presenting Its bill In equity." In this connection he quoted from decisions in other railroad cases and seemed to have an abundance of de cisions to back up his statements. Mr. Spooner answered Judge Hines* con tention that the value of the franchises should be eliminated In ascertaining the amount of earnings on Intra-state business and declared a franchise was something that could not be taken away wlthoyt compensation and due process of law, and Insisted that fran chises often Jive after all other assets of a corporation. The contention of Attorney Wlmblsh for the state that reduced rates meant Increased earnings was disposed of by a decision of the United States supreme court which declared that "speculations to the future aro not the guide to Judicial action," but that the rates must be uppliud us to what has been done in the past. In reading from the constitution of the state of Georgia, ex-Senator Spoon er paid a high compliment to that In strument and said It contained open ing* paragraphs which he doubted many other constitutions contained This referred to the obedience to the Federal constitution first, the const!- j tutlun of the state next and used that! us a basis for his contention that the j proceeding in the Federal court by a hill in equity was perfectly proper. "This,” said Senator Spooner, "Is the. word of the people. It Is not the voice f ut the legislature, 'It Is not a fancy.! It Is a constitutional command from! the people of the sovereign state of Georgia." In discussing the right of the state 10 he sued, Senator Spooner admitted that a state could Issue bonds and con tract debts and then repudiate them, ‘hit he also pointed out that the pur chaser of a state bond knows this to be true and trusts to the honor of the »*ate. He contrasted the difference In the case of the railroad which has its property confiscated by a law which had not been anticipated. ‘Senator Spooner was still continuing hi* argument when court took a recess nt 2 o'clock. former minister INDICTED BY JURY Richmond, Vs* Oct. 11.—A true bill returned In the Federal court “gainst the Rev.

Bagwell, YOUNG BRIDE ELOPED SECOND DAY AT FAIR BEATS THE FIRST MISS HELEN MALONEY. New York, Oct. 11.—Arthur Herbert Osborn, a young broker, made the startling statement today that he and Miss Helen Maloney, the heiress of Martin Maloney, papal marquis and multt-mllllonalre, who eloped last week with Samuel Clarkson, were married In Mamroneck December 28, 1905. and that the marriage was never an nounced. Alexander I,. Bonin, a lawyer, of Montreal, declared today that Helen Maloney and Samuel Clarkson were married In Montreal on Thursday last by a notary, that he arranged the wed ding and witnessed It. He said that an effort was made to get a special dispen. nation for the marriage In a Catholic ehureh, but It could not be had. Mr. Maloney, the girl's father, at his home. In Spring Lake, N. J.. said over the long distance telephone that he had heard from several sources that his daughter had been married In Montreal “I knew the story would come out the moment I heard Helen had gone away with tills fellow." said Mr. Os born. “The .worry this affair has had i on my mother Is disastrous. The most ■ you can make of this whole affair I* j that .tile girt must have been hypno- [ tlxed or was .an of her nilml. "1 continued to live with my family I here and she with hers, after tha eere- mony. I continued to see my wife fre quently and the last f heard she called for Europe. I was there on the pier to see her go. “There was no annulment of the mar riage through the efforts of Mr. Malo ney or anybody else, for Mr. Maloney did not kno wof It nor either I or Hel en wanted It annuled. “Whoever Clarkson Is. he knew Hel en was married to me. She told him that for we have learned he went to a lawyer and aaked If u marriage of a person who had figured In a previous ceremony In the etate to another in England would be valid," After a hysterical night, young Os borne rushed wildly from Ills apart ments this morning declaring that he would kill the Englishman .with whom his bride eloped. When his mother was unable to find hint after a search of several hours she declared she believed he was on the murderous errand he had threatened. Philadelphia, Ort. 11.—Andrew ' Ma loney, brother of Martin Maloney, an nounced today for the family that his brother wished to deny the statement of a man named A. H. Osborne In New York that he hail married Helen Ma loney In Mamaroneek, N. Y., two years ago. Continued from Page One, mand. The shows are all first-class, of a character entirely new. and are proving very popular, with the visitors to the fair grounds. George Bolllns, that Incomparable master of wild nnlmals, arrived at the fair Thursday night with his menage rie of trained wild animals, and will be ready to give his first performance Sat urday morning. Probably the most Interesting feature of Mr. Rollins' show Is "Cronje,” the wildest and most ferocious man-eating lion that ever raved In captivity; Blnco "Cronje” was brought out of the Jun gles and put In a cage by himself some years ago he has had all the room he needed, for neither man nor beast has dared to venture Inside the lnclosure. Another, or rather two other, Inter esting features of the show are "Geor gia" and "Atlanta," two young lions who were born at the fair grounds last year, Just after the fair closed. They will also be on exhibition and will entertain the public with a few stunts learned since they departed from At lanta one yeur ago. With Mr. Kolllns Is Mademoiselle Rosa, Iho lady who accomplishes the nervy act of placing her head In the mouth of a ferocious lion. The Oriental show, which has Just completed a successful engagement at the Jamestown Exposition, also arrived ut the fair Thursday night and will probably give an exhibition Friday night. With this show Is Madume Rossa, saltl to be the most aecompllsh- ied Oriental dancer fterformlng In the United Slates. A great deal of Interest also centers In the racqs which are being held Fri day afternoon. The attendance at the races Thursday afternoon was the larg est of ,previous years, and the Interest promises to be sustained and accentu ated by the high class of the entries. • J. C. Wallace, for several years con nected with the I-atonhi course, will act us starter Friday afternoon, and the difficulty which was experienced In the get-away Thursday will be obvi ated In future by the use of a barrier, which has already arrived.

A fireworks display In the daytime has been arranged for their especial benefit, and all the atv tractions on the ground will be espe cially designed for their amusement.
