KENNEDY's SHIP STARTS.
Negotiations Between Men and
Millers Still Pending.

Millers Still Pending.
The coopers held their regular daily
meeting yesterday morning, and the
committee made its report. The mills
still insist that they will hold Mr.. Chris
tan to his contracts, principally for the
reason that they have been paying him
"a cents for barrels at time when other
mills not havin g contracts were paying
but 80. This is disputed by the coopers,
who claim that Christian has received
on the average no more for his barrels
than the other shops. So far he has
been able to furnish the millers with
the barrels they required out of his
stock, but when this runs out it is eX-
pected by many that they will pay the
price asked. Some few of the millers
seem disposed to grant the raise, while
others hold out still, and it may be that
some concert of action will soon be ar
rived at.
AS the result of a consultation be-
tween Mr.. Kennedy and his men with a
committee at Labor Temple yesterday
morning, a settlement was reached, and
the shop will resume work Immediately.
There seems to be rapidly growing
sentiment in favor of having all the
shops under one management. The eX-
ponents of the idea have two reasons
for arriving at this conclusion, the first
being that there is not enough work to
keep all the men in the city employed,
and the second that the idea would
ultimately result in large saving both
to the men and the milIers.
Nj. j. Gill gives it as the opinion of
one of the prominent millers, that the
men ought to have seven cents for max
ing the barrels, but that at the same
time they should be furnished to the
millers for SO cents. This state Of things
he thinks could only be accomplished
by the proper organization and manage
ment. According to MI. Gill, it costs
about two cents each for the handling
of barrels, exclusive of the cost OF the
stock and the price paid to the men for
their labor, and 1t has been estimated
that there would be saving of one
cent on every barrel manufactured if
the business was properly organized.
This, he claims, would result in net
saving, to the mills and the men, of
about S25, 600 per year. These facts are
what induce both the millers and the
men to look fayorably upon the single
management idea, and Mr.. Gill thinks
it will finally be adopted. There is not,
nor has there ever been, any ill-feeling
between the men and the millers, and it
is not probable that there will be. Mat
tiers are progressing as smoothly as
could be expected, and an amicable ar
raugement all round will evidently sOen

HE JOINED THE ARMY.
Why Mrs. Emma Marks Wants a
Divorce.

Two years ago jeremiah M. Marks
who, his wife says, was salesman on q
salary of $500 per year, was seized by
the idea that he must atone for the sins
he had committed. and also labor to aid
in the conversion of the world. With
that purpose in view he joined the Sal
Walton Army. and therefore arose good
deal of trouble within the precincts OF
his home. The ills of the flesh seem to
have eliminated on the first day of
April, and yesterday his wife, Emma,
brought suit for a divorce: Her COM
plant alleges that she is thirty-six years
old and thai jeremiah is fOrty-tWo.
They were married in 1879 and lived to-
gether as all loving couples should until
Jeremiah Joined the Salvationists, when,
she alleges, his manner toward her I'M
derwent a change. She says that he
seems now to be possessed OF an evil
spirit; that, while he Is worth $4,000
and has been receiving salary of $500
per year. he has not provided for his
family as he should have done. Mrs.
Marks says, too, that his treatment OF
her has been both cruel and inhuman.
Recently, the complaint reclteS. he
seized her arms and wrenched her about
the room, hurting her severely, and, at
the same time, using language too viO-
lent and too indecent to be reproduced.
1t seems. she says, his purpose was to
make life burden to her.
Then Mrs. Marks begins to particu-
larize. She says that he some time ago
made her an allowance of 81 per week.
from which she was to purchase all the
family supplies, and later he cut that
sum down to IS per week. He allowed
her but SO cents per week for the sup"
port and clothing Of their little nine
year-old girl. These sums were so small
that Mrs. Marks says she had to and
frequently has earned money herself
for the proper support of the family.
They had been living on Portland ave-
nue.. between Seventeenth and Eigh-
teenth streets, but this locality seems to
have been too worldly for man of re-
ligious feeling. so they moved down
on Twenty eighth avenue south,
where house, Mrs. Marks
says, too small for their proper
accommodation was taken. Their fur
niture from the Portland avenue house,
however, was not moved, Mrs. Marks
alleging that this was done to deprive
her of any pleasure or society, to hui
initiate her flesh and to make her
literally obey the scriptural injunction
that wives must render obedience to
their husbands. After their removal
the complaint recites, Mr.. Marks re-
fused to supply hiswife withmore money
for family expenses. but instead took
charge Of the culinary department of
the household himself. Mrs. Marks says
that his persistent, pessimistic and
gnat-llke annoyance of her. who has
been we'll brought up and accustomed
to move in good society, has rendered
life with Jeremiah unbearable, where
fore she demands divorce and the
custody of the little girl. Furthermore
she says that her husband is trying to
take the little girl into the Salvation
Army, and an order was granted blythe
court enjoining Marks from moleSting
his wife or interfering withthe little
girl pending the trial Of the case.
