]wlge, Disgusted,
^Throws Divorce
Case Out of Court
(Hiicagoan Is Denied Decree
Wh eu Wife Confesses In
timate Relations With
Her Pastor.
Pljieago, Feb. 19.—Albert R. I.eland
was denied a divoree today from his
w(fe, charlotte, whose confessions of
intimacy with Rev. Carl Case, her
pastor, had Pd to the filing of the
sensational suit.
“I'm disgusted with this ease,'' said
•lodge Charles M. Foell. “it has got
ifli to Vie a town scandal and nothing
cifp. You have not stuck to the
issue.
“For want of equity I shall have
to throw the rase out of court.”
tfhc decision came after the Rev.
Air. Case, pastor of the fasionable
<>uk Park Baptist church, of which
I.eland was a deacon, again took the
stand today to refute testimony that
lie had om e before been named in a
similar action.
The new accuser of the minister
was Durward C. Adams, son of Dr.
i 'use's college chum, Rev. George
Adams of Mount Vernon, N. A'.
11 is? mother and father, Adams said,
wrtitc divorced, his father having been
granted a decree following his moth
er's confession that she had been in
direct with five men, whom she
e any of them ministers of
spel?“> William Moss, attorney
for Mrs. I.eland. asked.
vA'es, two of them,” said Adams.
“Do you recognize one of them
hepe?” queried fhe attorney. ,
“Yes, Dr. Case,” rame the reply.
A murmur of surprise swept over
the courtroom. The Rev. Mr. Case
maintained the composure that has
marked his every appearance in the
courtroom. He whispered a few
words to his attorney.
Adams continued a recital of the
episode, his mother’s confession at
(he breakfast table. The Rev. Mr.
Case, he said, was named in the testi
mony of the suit but not in the files.
Pastor Case was called to the wit
ness stand, lie explained his trip to
Buffalo, N. Y., and Brooklyn, as soon
is the trial was recessed 15 days ago
is taken “to l>e among friends."
Pastor Case formerly was pastor of
Baptist churches in Brooklyn and
Buffalo. Attorney Moss through his
questioning sought to bring out evi
dence that Pastor Case had revisited
his former parishioners to keep the
lircumstances of his departure from
those charges out of the l.eland suit.
Judge Foell was plainly angered at
the personal trend which the ques
tioning took, stating that too much of
the testimony was irrelevant.
Attorneys for the defense then
placed Rev. Clarence Frank, pastor of
a. Baptist church at Poughkeepsie,
N'. Y., on the stand. He was formerly
an assistant to Pastor Case.
“Did Pastor Case ever show you a
letter signed by Doctor Adams, de
manding $2,500?" asked the attorney.
The minister replied in the affirma
tive, and added:
“The letter said that Doctor Case
had been intimate with Mrs. Adams
and that Mr. Adams demanded $2,600
to keep the matter quiet.”
It was here the judge dismissed the
suit.

Millers Asked
for Opinion on
Wheat Tariff
Commiftpion Will Make Its
Report to the President
Next Monday Based
on Answers.
Washington, Feb. 19.—The tariff
commission will hold Its final hearing
on wheat and flour costs next Mon
day and shortly thereafter will make
a report on which President Coolldge
will determine whether to proclaim
an increase in the tariff duty.
Questions directed to the milling
interests by the commission bore on
points which, among others. It said,
appeared to he of fundamental im
portance. They were:
Should a change in the duty on
flour, if any, be based solely, upon
the difference in cost of production
of flour in Canada and the United
States^ or should a compensatory
rate be assessed upon flour equiva
lent to the duty upon the wheat con
tent of the flour, plus or minus any
difference in the milling and market
ing costs. If the compensatory prin
ciple Is applied, what conversion fac
tor shall be used, that is, shall the
yield of Canadian or of American
wheat be used, or shall an average
of the two be used, or shall some
other yield be used?
Millers Questioned.
The commission asked the millers
whether they considered the present
duty on wheat fully effective on hard
spring wheat Imported from Canada,
and whether they had any reason to
believe that foreign producers hear
a portion of the duty on wheat
shipped into the United States. The
method of distributing the costs of
milling and marketing to flour and
to milled feeds was asked, also an
expression on the question of includ
ins: and advertising and selling ex
primes in the comparative costa.
Statistics of the commissions pre
limlnary investigation showed the
cost of wheat per bushc* at the mills
canvassed was $1.2033 in the United
States an.I $1 093 in Canada, but
these figures, it whs pointed out. was
not comparable for ail purposes, be
cause the Canadian costs in some
< ases includes a higher freight charge
from western Canada than the cost
of wheat in the Minneapolis district
shipped from the spring wheat area
of the United States.
Costs Figured.
The cost of wheat chargeable to
flour, the commission's experts found,
was $1.7018 per barrel, or $2.3989 per
100 pounds in the United States, and
$4.3493 per barrel, or $2.2192 per 100
pounds in Canada. These costs are
according to the ratio of the sales
\alues of flour to that of milled feeds.
Chairman Marvin of the commission
asked the millers to consider care
fully and give their opinion on the
question of whether the commission
has authority to consider the com
pensatory elements in arriving at its
conclusions. He said he personally
believed the commission had such
authority.

gestion That Nebraskan

By I*. ( . ItOWKMi.
X\Aj.lniiKt.in (nrrM.[inni]ent The Omaha Bee.
Washington, Feb. 19.—News of ac
tion taken by former soldiers In Ne
braska, urging appointment of Sena
tor R. B. Howell to succeed Secre
tary Denby has reached Washington
and is causing cossiderabe comment.
It is one of Senator Howell's In
fallible rules to refuse ta state w hat
he will do in an emergency until the
emergency arises. He is following the
same rule in this matter, saying:
"I am not a candidate."
But those who know him well say
positively that if the post were of
fered him, and a few believe such
will he the case, he will not accept.
It Is known Howell came to Wash
ington with one predominate Idea In
hi* head, and that I* to force change*
in present transportation law*.
The secretaryship of the navy would
be one of the last Jobs In the world
lhat. Howell would want. First, be
cause he doesn't like navy life, and
second, because some of the best
friends he has are naval men and to
carry out any set naval policy would
be certain to cut Into that friend
ship.
It was for this reason mor* than
anything else that Howell fought
violently from being placed on the
committee on navi affairs. His pan
experience and past friendship among
naval officers would either have mad*
him a "pork barrel" senator, or a man
hated by his former naval associ
ates.
I-a.*t. is Howell's well known attitude
for shaping his own policies and fol
lowing them to an end. To have some
one else shape them for him, it Is
felt, would cause Howell no end of
resentment and in the final analysis
might make a lot of trouble for every
one concerned. So. take It all In all,
one can make a safe bet that in the
first place Howell won't be offered
the job, and in the second place h*
won't accept It If It Is offered to
him.
