EX-SENATOR CHRIsTIANCY
had short accidental interview with his
wife in this city to-day. The circumstance
were briefly as follows: While walking up
Third street, at the intersection of
forenoon Mr.. Christiancy saw his wife
standing in front of parlor window of her
residence waving her hand as If to attract his
attention to what seemed to be letter. He
thought at first that the demonstration was
intended for some other passer-by, but on
looking around and seeing no one in the
street except himself, he came to the con-
clusion that the letter was in
tended and decided to get it.
As he started in the direction eff the house
| Mrs. Christiancy left the window, and as he
reached the door she opened it, and with
much apparent excitement and agitation,
threw her arms around him, and seemed to
ask his forgiveness. He gently but
QUICKLY DIsENGAGED HIMSELF
and after exchanging few words with her
withdrew. In an interview with reporter
of the New York Associated Press tonight,
Mr. Christiancy said that be must
decline positively to give any particulars
with regard to his brief conversation with
Mrs. Christiaucy, or to divulge the con-
tents ofthe letter she handed him. Tat
the interview was purely accidental and
had no significance, whatever, and that he
regarded his wife only.
WITH PITY AND SORROW.
you may say, however, that this will be
our last interview and that the pend
ing suit for divorce will go on to
decree, Mrs. Christiancy and | shall
never live together again" As
additional evidence if any We're needsd,
that reconsideration of the compromise is
contemplated, the fact may be stated
that Mr.. ChrstianGys counsel, with the
permission of the chancellor, has just filed
supplemental bill charging Mrs Chris
tiancy
WITH DEsERrIoE.
In addition to the misconduct previously
alleged, this bill sets forth that when Mrs.
Christiancy lett her husband at Lima in De-
cember 1879 and came to this city, she wro e
him letter asking him to provide for her
He replied that he was perfectly
willing to suppor1t; pp1;.,, her, but he ne must nus
port that she give up the society of a
certain party of whom she made .acquaint-
ance and return at once to him. To the
letter he received no reply. He dates the
desertion from January l, 1881. Testimony
in support Of the supplemental
bill will be heard in a few
DAYS, and it is thought that a decision
in the case will be reached within q month.
IN an interview with reporter
of the press at late hour
this evening Mr.. Lugcnbeil. flther of Mrs.
Christiancy, said that his daughters last
positive statement was she had
NO INTERVIEW
v tn Mr. Christiancy to-day or recently. She
plead i'll health as a reason for declining to
see the reporter personally.
