MYSTERY VEILS
BRIDE OF IVES
One Miss Hazel Barter and Her
Mother Deny Knowing
Mining Man
CONSPIRACY CHARGE IS MADE
Mrs. Stanhope Says She Has Not
Been in Town of Golden,
Colorado
Who and where Is the Hazel Barter, I
supposedly of Los Angeles, who was
married to Albert I. Ives, a wealthy
Ely, Nev., mining man, on Juno 11 In
Golden, Colo.? Assuredly sho Is rot
Miss H;i7.'i Barter, daughter of Mrs, B,
M. Stanhope, formerly of f>r.7 Gladys
avenue, as the 1.03 Angeles young
woman, when seen yesterday at her
present homo, 1042 South Qeorfta
street, Indignantly denied being mar«)
rled to, or even knowing Ives.
Nor Is Mrs. Stanhope, mother of Miss
Hazel Hartor of this city, the mother
Who stood by and witnessed the mar- ■
fll.iKe of her daughter to a man whom
■he knew was already married, Mrs. '
Stanhope stated yesterday thnt neither
phe nor her daughter had been out of
Los Angeles for several months, that ,
they had never been to Oolden, Colo.,
and that neither had ever heard of
Albert Ives before. I
While Mrs. Stanhopo Is unable to ,
explain how the mistake In which lier I
daughter*! name waa coupled with that
of Ives camo nhout, she stated yester- .
clay that, In her opinion, the story waa
circulated by persons who uesired to
damage her name nnd . character for |
mercenary reasons. Mrs. Stanhopo re
fused to discuaa the affair or to give
further reasons ' for suspecting that
fiuch was the object of the story.
According to reports, a Hazel Barter,
supposed to be the one who lived nt I
r>:>7 Gladys avenue, had (rone to Golden, ,
Colo., and there, with the consent and j
approval of her mother, married AJbert •
I, Ives of Kly, Nov. Ives was arrested .
Thursday In Denver on a bigamy j
chnrge.
The Miss Barter who married him, '
however, is In no way connected with
the Barter family formerly living at 5, r>7 j
Gladys avenue, nor do tho latter know |
of another family by that name in this
city. From these facts they nre prone
to believe thnt some one who knew
them and who had an object in dam
aping their reputations spread tho re- ■
port that Miss Barter was married un- (
der peculiar circumstances.
No trace of another Miss Tlazel Bar- j
ter could be obtained by Tho Herald j
yesterday. The news <^pntch from
Denver, therefore, is mystifying. Cir- !
cumstances tend to support Mrs, Stßn- '
hope's theory, that some enemy origi
nated the report. The presence of Mrs.
Stanhope and her daughter In Los An
gfies nnd convincing evidence thnt
they have not gone out of the city
show that there was no warrant for
any statement that they were involved
in the Ives affair.

Mails to Defraud
Charged with using tho mails to do
fraud, J. S. AViley was arraigned be
fore United States Commissioner Wil
liams yesterday and his examination

ioy, Ind., wherein he is accused of hav
ing informed the Indiana man that
his son, A. L. Holsinger, was ill in
Sacramento and needed money In order
to return to his home.
According to the officials, tho father
mailed two checks, aggregating $185,
Which amount, they say, Wiley re
ceived and converted to his own use.
Holsinger junior was not ill in Sacra
mento and on learning of the swindle
reported tho facts to the postoffice
inspectors.
Wiley has consented to waive an ex
amination In liOs Angeles and will be
taken to San Francisco tomorrow,
where his case will be tried In the
courts of the northern federal division.

TUBERCULAR CASE CAUSES
AWARD OF $550 DAMAGES
Judge Conrey Grants Mrs. Ells
worth's Claim in Part
Damaftos to the amount of $500 and
$50 for thf expense of fumigation were
awarded by Judge Conroy yesterday at
the conclusion of the case In which
the W. R. Staats company was sued
for $^200 by Mrs. F. O. Ellsworth of
I'.ivarlena on the ground that an estab
| lllhment of hers In Pasadena Is no
I longer rentable slnco it was occupied
1 by a tuberculosis victim as the result
of the defendant being the agent of
the house.
Several witnesses were examined
yesterday, both In the matter of realty
values and In the possibility of the
contagious qualities of tuberculosis.
S. J. Wallace, Harry H. Gaume and
James H. 11. Wagner, realty dealers,
declared the pbtee was worth $5500
before it was runted to Dr. S. S. Crow,
whose wife died of consumption In it,
and that it was worth tho same
amount afterward.
Dr. Crow declared that everything
possible to avoid contagion was done.
Dr. George H. Kress said that fumiga
tion largely would decrease the danger
of contagion and declared that proper
ty values in the vicinity of sanatoria
for tubercular patients increased aftor
the first fear of neighbors wore off.
Dr. Norman Bridge averred that the
act of fumigating a. house reduced to
a minimum the possibility of any
other person's contracting tho disease.
Judge Conrey paid it made no dif
ference whether the likelihood of con
tusion were increased or decreased by
fumigation, that it was a matter of
whether the market value of the place
was diminished.

llvery—resulted in the suit of R. O.

& Co. that was argued before and
submitted to Judge Houser of the su
perior court yesterday.
Sabin claims that he was buying
chickens for six cents a pound In the
middle west for the defendant com
pany and shipping hia purchases here.
His commission was a cent and a half
a pound, he avers. Ho declares that
because some died on the way hero
and were thrown out of the cars, all
of his commissions have not been paid
him and he wants the court to award
him $450.

and Other Drowned At
tempting Rescue
[Rp<rlal tn The H--ral<ll
LONG BEACH, July 22 — Reports
from two families to the police that
two Long Beach boys were mising led
to a search this morning which result
ed In finding one of the boy's cap
afloat In Cerrltos slough, beside a cap
sized :-;kiff, while the other lad's bi
cycle was found on the shore.
The channel of the Rlough wns drag
fed, the fathers of the missing boys
nssisting in the search. About 1:30
o'clock thfl body of one of the boys
was brought to the surface with grap
pling hooks, and the other body was
recovered fit 3 o'clock.
The drowned boys were Kaoul Mcn
dnea, 13 years old, son of Mr. and
Mrs. John E. Mendoza, 802 West
Eighth street, and Gerald Barbonr, 11
years old, son of Mr. and Mrs. Good
rleh Harbour, who live at the corner
of Anderson streel and Atlantic ave
nue, near Willows Btatiotl. MendOßß l^ 1
foreman for a concrete building con
tractor in Los Angeles. Tho Parbour
family, former residents of Paranae,
Mich., own a small ranch of three
acres. They came here for their son's
health. The father was for some time
night clerk at Hotel Kennebec. Yes
terday afternoon the Barbour boy, who
had been working in the poultry yard,
received permission to visit a boy
friend, Bllaa Clemmer, 704 Loma Vista
drive. *The latter was not at home,
so young Barbour went to the Men
doza home.
A trip to the slough m proposed
and the boys entered a roughly-built
skiff owned by young Mendoza and the
Clemmer boy. The boat was anchored
below a bridge, just north of the as
bestos factory, near the foot of Sev
enth street. From there the boys
rowed north of the bridge, and In
the west branch of tho Blough. The
bodies were recovered about 100 feet
north of the bridge. They were only
about ten yards apart.
Members of both families watched or
nssisted In the search for the bodies,
Chief of Police Clarence Moyer direct
ing the work. A pair of grabhooks
were secured at Alamltos bay. Ed
ward Defever, a diver of San Pedro,
Krnest Scott of the Long Reach bath
house, and others dived for the bodies.
Eight or ton latinches were on the
slough while the search progressed.
The relatives became hysterical
when the bodies of the boys were,
hauled from the water with the grap
pling hooks. The slough at this point
la about eight feet deep at low tide
and fourteen feet deep at high tide.
The tide was high when the lads went
out In the Fklff. The point where the
drowning occurred is near the Pacific
Electric line running to San Pedro.
Cerrltos slough empties into the Long
Bench harbor.
The police had little clue In the
search for the boys this morning, un
til Alexander McDonald, who lives at
Nineteenth street and Pine avenue, re
ported sighting the cap and the cap
sized boat in the channel. How the
accident occurred probably never will
be known, there being, apparently, no
way to tell whether both lads were
tipped out of the boat at the same
time or whether one of them fell out
and the other made an Ineffectual at
tempt to rescue him.
