CHICAGO, June 30.-Mrs. Fannie D.
Studebaker, wife of Wilbur +. Stude-
baker, son Of member of the great car
riage firm of Studebaker Bros, was an ap-
plicsnt before Judge Shepard to-day for a
divorce, the charge being adultery. She
is plump, pretty woman of about thirty
years, neatly but not extravagantly
dressed. She was considerably ex-
cited, and an elderly lady was
compelled to assist her TO the witness
stand She sat down, shivered and ap.
peared ready to faint, but bailiff handed
her glass of water and she recovered.
Mrs. Studebaker related thst she was mar
ried to Wilbur F. Studebsker eleven
years ago at st. Joe, Mo, where they re-
sided for time before coming to Chicago.
Said she: "In January last received
information pointing to his guilt. ac-
cused him, and he acknowledged that he
had been guilty"
"Has he been away from you at any
timer"
Yes, he went to New York on little
business, but remained there three weeks,
aud during that time he WAS not what he
should have been. He also remained out
until midnight or later every night when
he was at home"
AFTER his absence what admissions did
he make?'
Mrs Studebaksr looked at the floor rs
she replied: 'Hs admitted that he had
consorted with other women on numerous
occasions"
She then left him, and asks the custody
of her .wo children. A decree will prob
ably be granted.

HE is REMOVED TO The SVATARA
And Will Sail by Easy Stages to Non
quit

WASHINGTON, June 30.-Geperal Sher.
idsn is on his way to Nonquitt, Mass.
The day opened cold, damp and cloudy,
and it was thought the removal would be
postponed until tomorrow. As the morning
however, the weather became
more pleasant, and it was decided to make
the removal at once.
At five minutes before eleven o'clock an
ambulance arrived at the Generals resi-.
dence, he was teuderly carried out and
placed in it, and an hour later was on
board the Swatara. The whole transfer
was accomplished without the slightest
obstacle or delay.
The General rested well last night and
bore the removal excellently, and is now
in at least as good condition aS before
leaving his home Through the kindness
aud forethought of Captain MCGOWAN, eve
~ possible arrangement for mis- safety and
comfort has been made.
At Ills o'clock the Swatara left the
Washington Navy Yard ell route to Nom
quit. The weather was clear and mild,
and the indications are favorable for q
pleasant voyage. The vessel will proceed
direct to Fortress Monroe; thence, unless
the sea is rough, she will go to the Della
ware breakwater, and from there to Staten
Island, then through He'll Gate to Long
Island Sound, and thence by easy stages
to Buzzard's Bsv.
The plan is to do most of the travelling
by day and anchor in the most convenient
port at night, 30 that the motion of the
machinery shall not disturb the Generals
sleep. The Ssatara will be able to ap-
proach within half mile of Norquitt and
the General will be transferred to shore by
means of the ships cutter.

and If not, the men determined 20 insist
upon the adoption of their own scale by the

''The action" Mr.. Kirchoff said, "was

in vogue. The committee from the men
heretofore had met the manufacturers
committee and decided their differences
themselves. Under the new arrangements
the new scales in dispute were to go to the
men, and the manufacturers were to he
allowed to reason with their own men, and
in this way the manufacturers hoped to be
able to convince their own employees Of the
necessity for a reduction. One advantage
Of this arrangement was that the two par
ties to the contract were brought directly
into contact with each other, and the argu-
mants of either side were not weakened by
being carried through committees of
more or less partial tendency one way or
another"
Mr.. Kircnoff believed that the finishers,
a more intelligent class of men than the
puddlers, were acquiring greater inbnenc
among the men, and might to some ex-
tent countersct the influenza of the loud
voiced and belligerent puddlers, who are
always in favor of strike as a means OF

Philadelphia Manufacturers and Iron
Workers Come to Terms.
PHILADELPHIA, June 30.-The annual
conference between representatives of the
Iron Manufacturers Association and the
local delegates ofsthe Amalgsmated Asso-
citation, to consider o schedule of wages to
operate during the ensuing year, was held
at the Office of James Rowland & Co, yes
terday. The scale of wages which was
offered by the men has the same feature as
that now in force, with the exception that
the puddlers demand that "the output at
each boiling furnace shall he average
weight paid for il made" The present
system is on the basis of what iron is put
into the furnace and not what ia turned
out. The demand was unexpected to the
employers, and they asked for time TO con-
slider il.
At the office of James Rowland & Co.,
yesterday afternoon, it was stated that the
difference had been adjusted, the manu-
facturers agreeing to the scale. The rate
of wages paid puddlers will stell be S4 per
ton on the minimum basis of a 2-cent
card rate, and prices for mill work will be
pro rata. No shut down is anticipated
unless the condition of the trade shall de-
maud il.

A SURPRISE
TO ORGANIZED LABOR IN INDIANA.
Displsased at the Nomination Of General
Harrison.
1 LABOR JOURNALS OPINION.
1t Will Arouse the Opposition Of the Work
ing Glasses.

INDIANAPOLIS, June 30.-The Labor
Signal to-day says: The nomination of
Harrison was genuine surprise TO the
organized workmen of this State, because
their attitude toward that gentlemen is
we'll understood, and it does not seem
possible that convention of sane men
would invite confidence with large num-
Der of votes in an extremely doubtful
State By naming candidate 30 objection
able.
Mr.. Harrison's candidacy for the Senate
two years ago aroused opposition among
the labor organizations. 1t was expressed
in a series of resolutions adopted by
Assemblies aud Unions. This paper
opposed Mr.. Harrison's election to the
Senate for reasons that would prevent it
from supporting him now. His public
record, in our judgment, has not been
such rs to commend him to the favorable
consideration of the people this paper
represents. We did all in our power to
warn the Republicans in time. They did
not think advice from such quarter
worth holding cuts no figure now, but
hundreds of letters from representative
wOrkingmen 10 this and other States in
dorsing the Signals position and breathing
intense enm,ty to Mr.. Harrison are con-
vincing proof that our position is correct,
at least from the labor standpoint.
Organic III labor will decide the presi-
dental contest this year, and it is almost
solidly arrayed against Gen. Harrison.
In our Judgment Mr.. Harrison's defeat
is forgone conclusion, even if Gov. Porter
should lend himself to the commonly
talked scheme of running for Governor in
order to help the Chicago nominee through
in Indiana.
A second source of weakness to the Chi
csgo ticket is Levi p. Morton, the Wall
street banker. 1t looks as if Senator
Ingalls, advice to the Kansas delegation
had been carried out to the letter.
1t is a principle as strong as written law
with the Knights Of Labor not to aid in
the elevation of national banker to any
office. The organization is opposed to the
national banking system aud recognizes in
it the handspring of all monopoly. For
q great political party to go into Wall
street-over which the curses of the farm
ing and producing classes OF the nation
hover like an angry closd-to select can
didate for its natiS al ticket is another
thing that astonishes the average working
man and causes him TO wonder whether
the monOpolistic Interests of the country
have not forseen the inevitable conflict and
concluded to force the issue without giving
labor further opportunity to organize and
inform itself.

the fastest and best ever seen on the
Thames, and the men rowed almost fault
lessly."
Mr.. Robert Cook said that the result OF
the race was vindication of his course,

body's efforts for the Harvards had not
been more successful. The entire Yale
