MRS. ELLSWORTH WINS.
The Old Decree Of Divorce Is Set
Aside.

ELDoRA, To-, March 11.-When the
court convened this afternoon the at
torneys for the plaintiff asked the court
to make the following entry, which was
done: ',The degree for divorce granted
E. S. Ellsworth, Dec. Is, '91, againstshis
wife, Hattie A., before Judge Hind
man, is upon motion OF plaintiffs at
torneys set aside, aud the case Is TO be
tried upon its merits"
After reading several letters from
Mrs. Ellsworth, the plaintiffs attorneys
moved that the case be dismissed with
out prejudice. So ends for the present
one of the most sensational and unf0rt-
unate of Iowa divorce cases.
The court decided yesterday morning
to hear the evidence in the case as to
the legality of the decree. The court
room was crowded. Several witnesses
testified that the plaintiff told them the
divorce case was heard in chambers,
and that the evidence had been
removed from the records Fifteen
neighbors of Mrs. Ellsworth, many
of them having known her for two
years, testified as to her character. The
height of interest was reached when
the defendant took the stand. She
showed the effect of recent sickness, but
was cool and Self-pOssesSed during the
examination.
I In addition to her testimony, Mrs.
Ellsworth said that after returning
from the coast, she stopped iii Cedar
Rapids one day and then went to Chi
cago, where she was met by her hus-
band. They had an affecting meeting.
embracing each other five minutes and
crying.
The cross-examination brought out
many incidents regarding the visit of
her husband and attorney to her home
at Iowa Falls, Nov. 16. Witness said
both urged her to confess and all would
be forgiven, and admitted that divorce
was urged as consequence If she did
not confess. Letters introduced show
that Notwithstanding their trouble the
husband and wife were warmly driven
towards each other. No bitterness was
shown during the trial between plain
tiff and defendant.
AS soon after the case was dismissed
as the attorneys could prepare papers,
an original notice was served upon
Ellsworth by his now legal wife charg
ing him with cruel and fnhuman treat
ment. The case has been assigned for
trial at the next term of court, which
meets in six weeks.

RAPID City, S. D., March ia
novel and racy story of domestic un-
happiness is unfolding itself in the
Williams divorce case, which began
before Judge Fuller here today. Will
Jams is prominent manufacturer OF
Rochester, N. Y, and his wife, who is
devout Catholic, is alleged to have de-
serted and refused to occupy the same
room with him OH religious grounds,
declaring that it was sin for Cath
olc to be united to hereto husband.
Mrs. Williams is sick at Usage, To-, but
as the substance of her testimony
was admitted motion for contin-
uance was denied. Williams evidence
was narrowing story of domestic mis-
cry. He told how fanatical servant
girl named O'Malley so Influenced his
wife that she would have nothing to do
with him. She locked him out of her
chamber, and treated him with coldness
and contempt. The O'Malley woman
is said to have received an intimation
from the Virgin Mary. and advised Mrs.
Williams to have no marital relations
with him. At the opening of the after
noon session the appearance of Nettie
Boyd, Williams alleged mistress,
created decided sensation. She is a
captivating blonde of splendid figure
and refined and intelligent appear
ance. Williams denies the, charge
dc derstood ''''1i that he will 90
upon the stand in defense OF her repu-
tation. In the event of successful
issue it is surmlsed that Miss Boyd will
become Mrs. Williams. The dispositions
read by the defense this afternoon con-
tain graphic story of how Nettie
Boyd rose from the position of a do
mestic In calico to the surroundings of
lady in silk, satins and diamonds.
Some portions were very racy, with
night robes. long silk stockings, ete.ssh5f
accessory. The case will be very closely
contested. Testimony covering a thou
sand typewriter pages has been taken,
and Mrs. Williams claims her attornevs5
fees to date are'Sl0,000. An allowances
has been granted of $500. The casesWifl
pr obably occupy ylthree or, four days.
Miss B0yd'S appearance upon the stand
is awaited with great interest," 80
The evidence7of the principal witness,
Emma Wyland, who worked in the'
Earl house, was sscoDSiderabl weakened
by contradictions and the fact that she
had married second time without GER
tain knowledge of her husbands death.
The details were quite salacious at some
points, and Judge Fuller frequently
expressed disgust, and declared he
wished to hear no repetition.

This would seem to indicate that
there is wild-eyed desire to secure
stocks regardless of the value and pros
poets, but this is not the case. The
Stocks have not been sold to the extent
anticipated. The desire of investors
has been rather in the direction of
securing control of properties. This has
probably been due to the manner i'll
which the largest holders have man.
aged their properties and companies.
Few of the latter have been started
without having showing OF iron, and it
is safe to say that never before has so
much testing been done in short space
OF time as has been in the past two
months on the Mesabi range. When a
man suggests the organization of COM
pany he is asked, not, what lands have
you?" but, "What showing have you
made?"
Up to the present there has been no
selling of stock without delivery. The
festive broker is about, but he is largely
confined to the curbstone, and the buck
ct shop operator is as yet unknown:
This condition OF affairs has also served
to check speculation. The host of small

though, OIL which word or two should
be said. For instance:
He shaves himself, and he doesn't

He doesn't play cards, and couldn't
make two counts at billiards or pool.
He doesn't care for base ball, would
be mystified by the performance of a
Princeton eleven, and he never handled
a tennis racquet in his life.
He doesn't swear.
He doesn't use tobacco or rum; but
he says if other people do and it doesn't
hurt them he has no objection.
He can appreciate joke, but he is
not adept at making one or telling
stories
He smiles more often than he laughs,
but when he laughs it is hearty yet
subdued laugh.
He likes to ride horseback, but isn't
much OF sportsman.
He frequently thrusts his hand
through his hair and makes it tousled

He talks freely to newspaper men
and says that he knows his friends are
talking of him for the presidency. but
he won't lift his little finger to get it.

mon experience. But now for the lucky
Minne;Otans who have made "big
strikes"
Judge D. B. Searle. of st. Cloud. is
credited with being from quarter to a
half million richer than he was before
he came to Duluth and took bold OF the
Mesabi range. He is, however, as affa-
BILE as ever, and quite as reticent as to
whether or not he will be after the Re- !
publican congressional nomination in
this district next year. The best
politician here failed to learn his
intentions. Some are cruel enough to-
say that the shrewd judge OF the Sew
enth judicial district by coming over to
Duluth and taking an interest in the
development of the section, has neatly
clipped the wings of one q. &. Hartley,
who is supposed to regard this end of
the new Sixth congressional district as
under mortgage to him, which can be
foreclOsed at any time. Be this as it
may. Judge Searle has no reason to
regret his temporary devotion to iron.

source of wealth. And for all their
sacrifices, privations and efforts they
will reap rewards that can hardly be
estimated.
The business manner in which st.
Paul has treated the developments in
this new section of the state has been
gratifying to the people of Duluth.
They had rather expected the metropo-
lis to be a little jealous, but ST. Paul
wants cheap iron as we'll as cheap lum-
Der and cheap coal, and both OF these
can be had from Duluth in the near fut-
ure. The Importance of these discover
les to st. Paul. Of course, all here admit
can hardly be overestimated.
Great blast furnaces are already be-
ing projected for Duluth, and when
they commence operations manufactur-
ing cities in Minnesota like st. Paul
and Minneapolis will be placed on
basis that wilenable them TO manufact-
ure all articles in which wood and iron
enter at a smaller cost than can be done
by the manufacturing cities in the East.
At any rate the people of Duluth, with

delighted with the treatment accorded
them and interest taken by st. Paul.
