CONJUGAL RIGHTS,
Far-Reaching Effects of the Decision in the
Clitheroe Case.
tBr DUNLAP's CABLE CoMPAEY.l

rBr DUNLAP's CABLE ooMPANY.l
LONDON, April 17.-An e1emplifcation
of the fact that every action, no matter how
Insignificant at the time, yet has a far
reaching capacity, is to be found in the now
celebrated Clitheroe case, in which the Lord
Chancellor, in giving his judgment in the
Court of Appeal, found that practically
Mrs. jackson had been imprisoned, for her
liberty had been restrained and no law al
lowed a husband to seize his wife because
she did not wish to consort with him.
The city magistrates have been deciding
cases where restitution of conjugal rights
has been asked for on the basis of this de-
cision. Notwithstanding the fact that the
Lord Chancellor, in referring to this case,
said it was not the intention Of the Govern
ment to introduce bill to give husbands
the power to imprison their wives for refus-
ing to obey orders restoring men to their
conjugal rights, 1t is generally believed that
the discussion of the question will lead be-
fore very long to some legislative measures
on this subject. The lately appointed JUS
tice, Jeune, declared in the Divorce Court
that separation DEGREES were now useless.

NOT MOTHER, BUT SISTER.
A CHANGE OF NAME AFTER MORE THAN
A SCORE OF YEARS.

A Married Woman Adopts an Infant
Brother, and Her Death Alone Dfsclosss'
the Relationship-About TO Gradual
From University as q Physician.
.sPEcIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArczi
BUFFALO. April 17.-Twenty- years
ago John David Rowland was born in
North Dartmouth, Mass. Six months later
his mother died, and he was adopted by q
married sister, whose home was in Buffalo.
For some reason the boy was kept ignorant
of his parentage, and was taught to
call his sister mother. For several
years after his adoption he was
taken frequently to the scene Of his early
home to visit his elder sisters. The visits
gradually ceased, and when the boy beca me
capable of understanding and aDpreciating
his situation he was sent on tours to Canada
during vacations. About years ago his
sisters, whom he supposed were his aunts,
came to this city and for the first time
learned that their brother was known az
John Wilkins after his sisters husband.
They threatened to diyulge the truth, but
by the pleadings of Mrs. wilkins they were
finally ioresworn to silence. John grew to
manhood and went to work for the Governs
ment, at the same time studying medicine
81 tne meOlcal department OIL the Niagara
University. He completed his course
and would have graduated this year
under the name of John d. Wilkins
if death had not stepped in and
cleared up the mystery. His elder
sister, who for almost quarter of century
he has called mother, was taken i'll about
three weeks ago, and, after a weeks sick
ness, died. The remains were taken to
North Dartmouth for interment. John, Of
course, went to the funeral, and while there
he was told by his father, whom he had ale
ways called grandfather, the true story Of
his birth.
The records and papers were showed him,
which proved beyond dou BIT that his mama
was John David Rowland, instead of John
David Wilkins; that for 25 years he had
lived with his sister, thin king her to be his
mother, and the aged gentleman, whom he
had always spoken of as grandfather, was in
reality his father. When he returned to
Buffalo, he imm ediately took action to have
his name put correctly on the certificate Of
graduation from the Niagara University OF
Medicine, where ne graduated as John
David Rowland. His father wishes him to
go to the old Massach usetts home and reside
with him, but the young man is engaged to
the daughter of one of Bufalo's prominent
citizens, and ne Is determined to remain
here and practice medicine.

out. She followed him, seemingly entreat.
ing him to talk to her, and when he turned
from her at the corner, she drew pistol
| and fired, the ball entering the side and
lodging in the bowels.
''I am shot," he exclaimed, and was taken
home where the doctors cut him open and he
died the next night.
Delivering Herself Up.
"Where is an officer? / desire to give N.Y.
self up" said she, and was taken to Jail,
where she has been ever since. Clarence
Martin promptly denied being married h
her.
Her story is as follows: She met Clarence
D. Martin in Eufaula. in 1884. He became
enamored of her. and took her to Mont
gomery, where she lived few months as his
mistress. He then went to Galveston, Tex,
sent back for her, and they lived there for
two years as man and wife, going in the best
society. He then proposed marriage; they
went to Austin, were married by the Epis-
copal rector and subsequently settled down
and lived happily in Dallas, Tex.
Ed Martin, about this time, began writ
ing to Clarence to induce him to desert his
wife, and finally, in January, 1890. her
husband left her. She supported herself as
best she could with the assistance of a
monthly allowance sent her from Birming-
ham, as she supposed by her husband, but
in reality by Ed Martin.
Conspiracy Against Mrs. Martin.
In the fall she was at Eureka Springs and
met man named W. E. Embry, of Nash
vile, who paid assiduous court to her,
whose advances she resisted. Finally EN-
bry left, but before doing so, told the land
lady that Mrs. Martin was not what she
should be-that he was "a detective en-
ployed to trap her and represented the
Herman Detective Agency, of Birmingham,
which was in the pay of Ed Martin. who
desired proof of adultery on ner part in order
to procure a divorce.
The white porter of the hotel also came
forward and acknowledged, after Embry
left, that the detective had agreed to pay
him $50 to get into Mrs. Martins room and
he caught there SO as to compromise her.
On learning this, she took the first train to
Birmingham, arriving Sunday morning,
The Killing of Martin.
On Monday she saw Ed Martin time or
two, and demanded that he call off his dogs
of war. He would give her no satisfaction,
and In the afternoon she sought him at his
Office. There she protested her innocence
and purity since the date of her marriage.
"Where did you get that fine dress?" he
said to her on the sidewalk.
II sewed and made the money!"
''You can't tell me. Virtue and work
don't 20 together" he replied contemptu-
ously as he turned away.
And then 1 shot himl" That is her story,
which is strongly corroborated. Public
sentiment has all the while been strongly
in her favor.

upon his right to express an opinion in cur
rent affairs. His opinion might not agree
with the Ministerial opinion. but it would
not always be conservative.
This speech of Prince Bismarck presages
the indomitable opposition of the former
Chancellor to the Government. Prince Bis
marck, in repudiating the charge of aban-
doning conservatism because he destroyed
old forms and founded new, said that the
value of these things must be weighed
against each other. He entered at
length into the matter of the union of Ger
many. He said it was unnecessary to belong
to particular party to be conservative;
therefore, in the last years of his official life
he had.taken the trouble to coalesce the Ma
tional Liberals and the Conservatives. He
would much regret if that coalition fell to
pieces.

A DISMAL PROSPECT.


The Backward Spring Is Proving Injurious
to London Business.
rBY DuSLAP's CABLE CoMPANY.I
LONDON. April 1.-THE weather is now
cold and chilly and the sun scarcely shines
at all. The consequence is that in the park
trees and shrubs are in very backward
condition, and nobody has yet dared to leave

although about Easter everybody likes to
appear in his new fnery.
Business of all kinds has been hurt by
this backward season, and certainly the
change in the weather when il does come
