Advertising Agent for the Harpers' pub.
fishing house, who has $4,000 annual in
come, recently obtained an injunction to
restrain his wife from selling valuable
house and lot here which he decided to her
for one dollar. His wife was in San Fran
cisco when the injunction was granted, but
returned Immediately To-day motion
was made in Court to have the Injunction
vacated. Last year Wyse and his wife went
to San Francisco, stopping at the Palace
Hotel. The wife alleges that he began
spending money with dissolute compan-
ions, and she left him and returned to New
York
Wyse's attorney says his wife induced
him to convey the property to her by false
pretensions of love; also, that in the
Palace Hotel she put his trunks out of the
room and locked the door on him. She
complained because he only gave her
$4,000 per year. He furnished her with
diamonds. jewelry, horses. and dresses
made by Worth in Paris, and still she was
unhappy. Wyse obtained the injunction
fearing that she would sell the property at
sacrifice. The decision was reversed.

New YoRK, April 26th.-The story from
London that Chamberlain will lead to the
altar Miss Endicott is denied with emphasis
by the family of the lady. A story of like
import was in circulation while Chamber
lain was in this country, and grew out OF
the fact that he met Miss Endicott fre-
quently in society and he paid her great
deal of attention. 1t is thought the Lon
don story is a revival of this.

WASHINGTON, April 26th.-In reaching a
decision in the California contested election
case of Lynch VS.. Vandever the House
Elections Committee hel0-and it is prob
able this position will be strongly set out in
its report-ihat the election officers acted
improperly in rejecting the votes of such
persons as attempted to register by affidavit
after the expiration of the time for registra-
ton fixed i'll the published notice 1t was
held that the registry officers acted outside
OF authority in limiting the time for regis
tratlon to shorter time than that fixed by
the State law, and the affidavits of those
persons who failed in registering in the
appointed time, although presented and
collected by persons not legally qualified,
should have been received and the persons
allowed to cast their votes. The votes re-
iected by the election officers were counted
by the House Committee, with the result
that they reduced Vandever's majority to
about thirty votes, but as this was not suf-
ticient to reverse the result the committee
declared in favor of the claims of Vandever.

dressed TO the general public, from which
the following is quoted:
The present stockholders will eliminate and
take to their own account all bad aud doubtful
assets and assume and pay all liabilities, except
amounts due depositors, and will turn over to
the new management sufficient good assets to
be approved by committee of the new Board
OF directors, to pay all depoSitors and cover the

N. K. MAsTEN,
j. f. HoUGHToN.
Masten was formerly Cashier of the Ne
vada Bank, and ]. F. Houghton is Man.
ager of the Home Mutual Insurance Com
pany. In an interview Mr.. Houghton said
Neither Mr.. Masten nor myself are
shareholders in the Nevada Bank, but we
were requested by the people who own the
stock to arrange the plan set forth in the
circular. The idea is to popularize the Ne
vada Bank; to make of it a commercial
bank, which it has not been heretofore, and
to allow our merchants and people at large
to come in and become owners in such an
institution"
Manager Bigelow states as the reason for
reorganization that the three men owning
nearly all the bank stock. c.. Flood. ex-
Senator Fair and j. W. Mackay-cannot
give that personal attention to the bank
that it should receive, Flood on account of
ill-health, and Fair and Mackay on account
