cation Of this agreement. The balance of the
purchase money is to be placed in the treasury

In the case Of William Roberts agt. Mary
Remserb the Colorado. court of appeals has de-
cided that the divorce granted by the lower
court is void Remserb is under sentence OF
death for the murder Of Henry Kaippia. An ap.
peal for new trial is now pending in the su
preme court. Mary Rsmserb by this decision
Is declared the lawful wife Of the condemned
man, and as such Is not privileged to testif,
that Roberts was convicted. and aside from hel
testimony there was no legal proof that Rob
erts committed the deed The decision will
have an important bearing upon the appeal nov
pending IN the supreme court The probability
Is that with Mrs. Roberts testimony stricken
from the court records the charge of murder
cannot be proved.

A War on Vice In Pittsburg,

Mayor Gonrley OF Pittsburg has addressed let
ter of instruction to Chief Brown of the depart
ment Of public safety directing that official to
at once close every house Of ill repute in the
city. Chief Brown at once directed Chief of
Police O'sIera to close and keep closed all such
houses in the city. This action on the part
Of the mayor is brought about by the concerted
action and demand OF the United Presbyterian
ministers and personal appeals from many
prominent people all over the city. The church
people have pledged themselves TO care for the
inmates of the resorts who are sent adrift by
the closing of their houses, and will try to re-
deem all such as desire to change their mode of
life.

Opposed to the Anfi-Option

The Savannah. Ga. cotton exchange has me-
morialized United States Senators Gordon and
Colquitt to the effect that the Hatoh-Washburn
anti-Options bill if passed would be a very grea,
injury to the agricultural and commercial in
dustries of the country by prohibiting n con-
venient and necessary method of dealing in
futures. The rise in the value of cotton is held
to prove beyond controversy that the laws Of
supply and demand regulate values. and tina,
exchanges do not depress price claimed. II
it were not for exchanges that deal in futures
the producer would be at the mercy of the con-
sumner alone, who would more largely deal from
hand to mouth, and thus force the farmer to
dispose Of his product at ruinous prices. The
Senators are requested to nse their influence tc
prevent further legislation on the subject and
do all in their power TO prevent the passage Of
the said or similar bill
