Last night tiie couple returned to the

Hotel Victoria in Bush street, where
they admitted their renewed romance.
It seemed early in April that there
would be no wedding bells to ring

Able to Pay More
LOS AXGELES. May 9. — According to
a decision reached by the Home tele
phone company, rates of service will
be increased to such subscribers as
the company thinks should pay a"high
er rate, In spite of the referendum
petition recently filed. Any one who
objects to the increase will have to
contest the matter in the courts. The
company will then attack the referen
dum on the ground that In fixing: the
rates the council was acting In a ju
diciary capacity and not in a legis
lative manner and thatthe referendum
to suspend the operation of the ordi
nance fixing the rate -can have no
effect on the judicial decision of the
council that the rate should- be in
creased. - •

LONDON; MayiS.-^AH white men in
the Congo Free,' : State, are interested
in w the trial for libel of two * American
missionaries. Rev. \u25a0-; William Morrison
and Rev. W..H. Sheppafd, which will
begin at Leopold ville- May 20. • This
case is ; expected:. to i be' a : test^between
the Belgian government and therAmer
iean missionaries, .who;have long* made
themselves a thorn T .in its flesh ! by, their
charges :of ' maladministration and:op
pression of the natives. .'
'The suit; is brought by one of- the
concessionaire companies, called \u25a0'- the
Kasai trust, which has a , monopoly of
rubber gathering, in the Kasai reglon."
It claims $20,000 damages from each
missionary for "calumnious denuncia-
BELGIUM HOLDS STOCK
The Belgium' government holds half
of the Kasailtrust' stock and a majority
of its directors; are Belgian* officers, so
the, suit may be< considered practically
oneof, the Belgian government against
the missionaries.
The missionaries say that the officials
levy; upon the natives oppressive taxes
to be; paid in rubber; that whole vil
lages, including women and children,
are Impressed by the soldiers for gath
ering the rubber, they are often com
pelled tp '. travel- "many miles to the
rubber forests and "' sleep" there for
more than, a week under .unhealthy
conditions ; that they are of ten cruelly
punished for failure to fulfill the. tasks
proposed, and that a larger portion of
their time is taken forgathering "these
taxes, and that they are unable to
cultivate crops- and raise_ food neces
sary for their support.
COXSUL TO WATCH TRIAL
Messrs. Morrison and Sheppard are
members jof the American Presbyterian
mission. The^American consul, W. H.
Handley, has been instructed by the
government* to go to Leopoldville to
watch the trial, which will be con
ducted by ; Belgian officials. \u25a0
, About \u25a0 20 American missionaries* are
stationed in the Congo and. as nearly
all of them have made the same charges
against the administration, the out
come of the suit will have an im
portant bearing upon their future there.
