ALIENATION ACTION WINS
St. Paul Woman Trails Husband and
Rich Widow to Tacoma; Sues for
$50,000 for Loss of Affection;
Gets $10,000 for Trouble.
i TACOMA, Wash.. Dec. 1Z. (Special.)
Verdlcct for the piaintiff. $10,000. was
announced today In the Superior Court
In the suit of Mrs. Carrie Wilkinson,
of St. Paul. Minn., aprainst Mrs. Mary
-A dam son, a widow, for $50,000 damages
for the alienation of Wilkinson's affec
tions, i
The case nas on trial most of la ,
week In the Superior Court, a woman
attorney, Mrs. Bertha M- Snell, appear.
. lngf as associate counsel for the defense,
nnd making: the closing: argument
the jury.
Wilkinson is a railroad book-keeper
in the employ of the Milwaukee road.
Widow Anderson is a china art painter
and has a store on Tacoma avenue, hav
ing come here from St. Paul In company
with Wilkinson, the two traveling on
the same train and stoppng at the same
hotel but occupying separate rooms.
Mrs. Wilkinson followed them here
and tiled suit. The Wilkinsons have
one child. On the witness stand Wil
kinson testified entirely f- "Bunny,"
his pet name for Mrs. Adamson. and in
sisted their relations were wholly pla
tonlc. -
Mrs. Sncll in the course of her argu
ment to the jury said:
"This is the time for a woman to de
fend a woman. With my womanly in
tuition that Mrs. Adamson is innocent
of the charge against her I feel it my
duty to defencf her good name.
"It is fitting that I should make this
fight against a charge involvng the
honor of one of my sex."
"This - is not the usual case of the
charming seductive young woman who
steals away a husband's heart. These
people are middle aged. If Wilkinson
preferred the company of a quiet, in
tellectual widow to that of his own
mercenary and nagging wife, is that the
fault of Mrs. Adamson?
Here was no happy home with a
woman breaking Into to destroy &
wife's happiness. If the husband pre
ferred Mrs. Adamson it was by uncon
scious contrast with his own wife."
STORM DEFENSE LAID OUT
tiorernment Plans Reinforcing Pil
ing at Jetty.
PORT STEVENS, Or.. Dec. 13. (Spe
cial.) It has een deduced by Government
officials that, by heavily reinforcing the
piling at the end of the jetty here and
shelving on. the rock placed . there,
strength would be given to cope success
fully with this Winter's violent storms.
The first heavy storm, though it did
not affect the reinforced portion, de
stroyed over 500 feet adjacent to it. con
sequently leaving a huge gap and allow
ing the extreme end of the jetty to face
the full force of storms attacking it from
all directions. This continued hammering
Is destroying this end construction at a
cost of approximately $10,000.
Efforts to continue outside work during
the Winter season were abandoned yes
terday. All outside work, with the ex
ception of that pertaining to the artillery
engineer's construction work, will not be
taken up until next Spring.

"OREGON SALMON RUN LOW
Two North Paciric States Put Up
342,300 Cases In Season.
ASTORIA, Or.. Dec. 13. (Special.)
Reports at hand indicate that during
the P'all season which recently closed,
the canned salmon put up by the
plant3 on the Oregon .nd Washington
Coast streams, the Columbia River and
Puget Sound will total about 342,000
cases.
On the Columbia River, Puget Sound
and at Washington Coast points, the
Pall season was a good one and fully
u. to the average, but In Oregon Coast
streams the catch was very light and
the pack put up was less than two
thirds of that of former years, onljfr
one point. Tillamook, securing what
might be termed a normal catch. This
shortage is accounted for by the dou
ble fact that the canneries at Siletz,
Is'estucca and North River were not
operated, and the heavy rains and high
freshets which occurred at frequent
Intervals during the entire season
rendered fishing operations, difficult
and' at times Impossible. At Grays
Harbor and Tillamook, however, on
account of the wide expanse of. the

looking Toward Bettering
Governmental Problems.
; I
BOISE, Idaho. Dec. 13. (Special.)
Convened in the first meeting of its
k(nd ever held In the Gem State, for
the purpose of discussing taxation,
good roads, care of the sick and indi
gent, and other important but complex
governmental problems, the Commis
sioners of 21 of the 23 counties of Idaho
manifested a desire to co-operate
toward the improvement and adoption
of uniform legislation. .The meeting:
was held In the Capitol.
The meeting is considered one of the
most important gatherings, having a
direct bearing on the future welfare
and advancement, of the state, that has
yet been called, the governing bodies of
the counties and the state being
brought together to discuss matters
pertaining not only to the welfare of
the counties and state, but also per
taining to establishing of uniform leg
islation in sister states.
At the opening session the Commis
sioners were addressed by Governor
James H. Brady, who. In outlining-the
purposes of the meeting, declared it
was his wish and Intention to better
financial and civic conditions within the
state. I
The relation of the Commissioners to
the taxpayers was cited by him, stat
ing that people of the different coun
ties are more careful in the selection
of County Commissioners than of candi
dates for any other office.
Stress was laid upon the recent de
cision of the Supreme Court with re
spect to taxation, the Governor ex
pressing the hope that the Commissioners-would
agree upon some solution of
this perplexing problem, taxation.
12-YEAR FIGHT CLOSES
WASHINGTON SUPREME COURT
AFFIRMS SPOKANE DECISION.
Defendants Win Action Which Saw
Its Eleventh Appeal to High-
est Judges. '
OLYMPIA, Wash.. Dec. 13. (Special.)
In affirming the judgment of 'the Spo
kane Superior Court in the case of F. P.
Weymouth, receiver for the Oudln &
Bergman Fire Clay Mining & Manufac
turing Company, dissolved partnership,
and Thomas F. Conlan against Charles
P. Oudln and the American Fire Brick
Company, the Supreme Court advised an
early settlement, as for 12 years th
company has been in the courts, and
this last makes the 11th appeal to the
Supreme Court.
The defendants win out this time;
When organized the company issued
1500 shares of capital stock. Oudin hold
ing one share and his wife 749 shares
and Bergman 750 shares. Oudin was
president and Bergman, .secretary, both
being trustees.
Bergman sold out to Conlan. and then
at every meeting of the stockholders the
Oudin stock was voted for Mrs. Oudin
for secretary and Conlan voted for him
self, and the business was brought to a
standstill. Oudin's brother In New Tork
put up the money for the building of a
brick plant near Spokane, with Conlan's
consent- The old plant burned down In
1903 and their litigation piled up.
It was claimed that some of the origi
nal company's money was used in the
construction of the new plant,- and that
the Oudins should have spent $250 to
repair the old plant after the fire. Tho
Supreme Court says that the Oudins
cannot be held responsible, as both par
tics were stubborn.

(Continued From First Pie.)
likely that the latter will be taken ul
first.
The charge upon which Hamilton was
tried accused him of securing $1800 be
longing to the state military fund by
forging vouchers. There are several
other charges pending against Hamilton,
who Is accused of embezzling $50,000 be
longing to the state, which he is alleged
to have spent on Hazel Moore, formerly
of Seattle, but now living at Oakland,
Cal.; Nora Hamilton, of Portland, Or.,
and other women.
Judge Robinson, senior counsel for
Hamilton, will leave for California In
the morning. He says that a motion
for a new trial will be filed the first
thing tomorrow by his associate attor
ney, T. M. Vance. If this is denied, an
appeal , will be taken to the Supreme
Court. The state does not believe that
the case can be heard until some time
In May. s
Fast Liife His Downfall.
Hamilton was arrested early In May fol
lowing the" expose of the high life, he
was leading -ijj Seattle He got into
trouble as the result of his infatuation
for Hazel Moore, the affinity in the case,
for whom he purchased an automobile
and maintained in luxurious manner In a
high-clatis- apartment-house.
All efforts to get ball for Hamilton have
failed. The Supreme Court fixed the
amount at $20,000 before his conviction,
and that could not be raised. In the
morning Attorney Vance will take -up the
question of bail with the court and an
other move will be made to secure Ham
ilton's release, as he has spent the last
seven months as the house guest of Sher
iff Gaston In the Thurston 'County Jail.
At first he was allowed numerous liber
ties, but the Sheriff was so severely crit
icised that at last he kept Hamilton in
Jail continually, like the other prisoners.
Governor Hay was Informed of the ver
dict a few minutes after the jury report
ed, but he bad no statement to make.
Argument Is Waired.
The Hamilton defense sprang another
surprise this afternoon when they
waived argument before the Jury, after
holding a consultation following the
cloBe of the opening address to the Jury
on behalf of the state by County Attor
ney Wilson." Wilson started to talk af
ter the. jury had been Instructed, and
spoke for nearly three hours. Assistant
Attorney-General Magill also waived
the right to talk to the 12 men. and at
3:15 '"o'clock the fate of Hamilton on
the larceny by embezzlement charge
was placed In the hands of the Jury.
