SENSATIONAL DIVORCE SUIT.


Whatsom Widow Defendant and Her
Colorsd Coschmsn the PlaintiH.
WHArcoM, March 2l-rSpecial.] IA SEN
sation has been created by the fling of an
action for divorce by Harry ]. Ruse
against the widow of the late Calvin KEGS
ling, formerly chairman Of the board of
county commissioners, who died in the
insane asylum At Steilacoom about two
years ago.
Ruse 10 mulatto about % years Of age,
and was Mrs. Keesling's coachman ct the
time of her husbands death. The COM
plant rscites that after persistent solicita-
tion on the part OF the widow and numer-
Gus tempting inducements held out to tho
plaintiff to overcome his scruples on &C.
count Of the difference in race. color and
social standing and the great disparity of
ages, the widow being Is, the two were
married In Winnipeg on September 5,
1892.
The welded pair then visited the plaint-
IFS relatives IN Illinois and the defend
ants relatives in New York, plaintiffs
brother and sister being taken to Saratoga
Springs to be educated. While there, the
complaint recites, defendant refused to be
recognised a. the plaintiffs wife, although
she cohabited with him as such, and de.
manded that he serve her as mental;
that she compelled his brother and
sister to leave. and refused to con-
tribute to their support; that
she tried to force him to 70 to the Sand
wich islands 50 she might the better ne
gotiate for fifth husband; that upon q
false accusation she procured his incar-
ceration in Jail at Saratoga. where he was
shamefullp abused, and that after threat
ening to send him to the penitentiary for
assault unless he would deny the mar
riage. she made him return $40 and a
gold watch and then sent him to Chicago
to shift for himself.
But instead of this he came direct to the
garden where his tempter first met HIM
and filed suit tor divorce and division
Of the estate in this county, which is rep.
resented to be worth $4,000. Meanwhile
the widow is on the trail of another
victim. Public sympathy here is de-
cidedly with Ruse, who seems now to fully
appreciate the wisdom of the elder
Weller's advice to his son Samuel to "Be-
ware of Vidders"

SOME SENSATIONAL CHARGES.


TACOMA, March N.-rSpeciall -Evelyn
K. Ferry. now Of San Francisco, this after
noon through her attorneys began suit in
tie superior court to set aside the divorce
granted G. P. Ferry. the "Duke Of Ia
coma, on October 81. 1885, alleging that
the same was produced through fraud.
The legal point involved u that Ferry had
not been In the territory Of Warrington
one year when he secured the divorce.
Besides this. it is proposed to show collu-
sion between Ferry's and Mrs. Ferry's
attorneys, and that at the time
Of the granting of the divorce Ferry's
property was worth $3.50 900, and not
100000. ~ stated at the time, of which
Mrs. Ferry secured $50 200. principally in
lots that have not realized handsomely
for her. simultaneously with tho fling
OF the suit to set aside the divorce. Mrs.
Ferry's attorneys filed . IL pedens in the
auditors Office, tying up all OF Ferry's
property. including many lots in oil parts
Of the city and acreage thereabouta Un-
til the case 10 disposed of. Ferry cannot
sell any realty without Mrs FeFry's sig
nature. Ferry II 1t Geneva, Italy, and it
IL believed he will ct once return to Ta-
coma
In her suit the sensational features Of
Mr.. and Mrs.. Ferry's relations ct Paris
and other places are recounted, making
bulky documents. It will be remembered
that Ferry Get mp the charge of adultery in
his suit for divorce. Mrs. Ferry recites
this ~ untrue and alleges being infiu-
enced, in order to secure possession Of her
child, to assume that she was guilty of
that ofiense. She recites having been
harrassed by Ferry's detectives and
having been unjustly accused BY
him during the time Terry is
said to have secured evidence at Paris, i'm.
plicatlng her in intimate relations with .
young Frenchman. Four months have
been occupied in the preparation of the
case. during which time Mrs. Ferry has
visited Tacoma from San Francisco. Her
attorneys ailege that the case is brought in
good faith after . careful consideration,
andfwill be fought to conclusion to secure
Mrs. Ferry . wife's interest in tho Ferry
estate and vindicate her character. If the
case il contested all the sensational feat
ures OF the previous circumstances will
have to b again gone over.
