COL. SINN'S DEFEAT.
He Will Appeal from the Decision In
Favor Of His Actress Wife.

He Will Appeal from the Decision In
Favor Of His Actress Wife.
BROOKLYN, June 27.-Chief Justice
Clement in the City Court. Brooklyn. has
handed down q decision In the suit
brought by Col William F. Sim, the
we'll known theatrical manager and lessee
of the Park Theatre. who sought to have
his marriage with Cora Tanner, the
actress, annulled on the ground that she
was already the wife of DR.. c. Frederick
Farlin, of Rochester. at the time she mar
ried the Colonel.
Justice Clement decides In favor of the
actress, and orders Col. Sim to pay tho
costs of the action.
The couple were married at Cleveland,
O., Feb IA, 1885. They have no children.
Col. Sims suit to have his marriage an
nulled was based on the ground that she
was never legally divorced from DIR. Farlin.
Farlin and the actress were married In
Lansing, Mich, in September, 1878. They
only lived together short time, when they
separated, and she continued on her the
atrical tour. In 1888 she sued him for
divorce in the Chicago courts. and got a
decree. The suit was not defended.
In the suit just decided, Col. Sim
alleged that the divorce was null, because
the court had no jurisdiction, Farlin never
having lived in Illinois. Miss Tanner got
that divorce by alleging that DIR. Farlin
had married Matte +. Drew in Jackson,
Mich, in 1871, and had never been di-
vorced.
The papers in this suit were served by
publication. The point was raised by Col.
Sims lawyers whether this mode Of
service was legal The case will be ap-
nealed

TosAwANDA, June 27.-Trouble hal
broken out among the non-union lumber
handlers again over the question Of wages
but the presencs of the troops and deputies
Is preventing them from becoming violent.
Since the Buffalo Poles rioted . week
ago on account of the lumber men decid-
ing to pay them by the thousand instead
of by the hour, the lumbermen have con-
ceded the point apd the same men have
been paid by the hour. The lumbermen
however have announced that the non
union men would have to work by the
thousand. The dealers found that their
non union force contained q lot Of shirks,
and ccacluded that IL they were paid by
the thousand they would work quicker
and earn their money. About $50 of those
who came from Buffalo yesterday in
sisted upon being paid by the hour. The
lumbermen told them they would not and
the men refused to work.
They are Angry and sullen, hut have
not shown q disposition to fight. The

Duo to Heavy Drain on the Institutions
Funds.

Due to q Heavy Drain on the Institutions
Funds.
BUFFALO, N. Y, June 27.-Much sur
prise is expressed over the fact that the
Queen City bank. which was started here
a little over a year ago, has closed Its
doors.
Mr.. F. M. InRlehart, one of the direc-
tors, said that the suspension was due to
heavy drain of money out Of the bank,
which has been going on for several weeks.
The bank paid out all the money it had,
even to dimes, nickels and pennies, and
when the last cent was gone the officers
went out and closed the doors.
Mr.. Ingelhart said that the bank had
plenty of collateral, but fourd that it was
impossible to raise money on 1t in the
present financial stringency. The New
, York banks would not let them have any
money. He said the depositors will be
paid in full.
The State Superintendent of Banking
has been notified of the suspension. and
will send an examiner here. The officers
are hopeful that the bank will resume. IL
owes its depositors over 81, 400 900.
The general opinion is that the bank
cannot realize on its securities on account
of the tightness of the money market.

tor the American Bible society for ten
Ears and at the date of the society's
last report had given away few over
100000 Bibles.
This is remarkable work, but much
more surprising is the fact that these
Bibles are well printed on good paper,
with large, clear type, and handsomely
hound. that they are in twenty languages
and dialects, and yet the average net
cost of their production is Tut forty-fve
cents each. Adding all the expenses OF
storage and distribution, and still the
COS, is below sixty cents. OF the million
BIBLES given away by Mr.. jackson the
s,ciety records show the largest number
m have been in German. Within the
wear lately closed the record showed 3d.
52Q in that tongue. The Swedish stood
next with 1922, and then came the
Danish with S,Si6, English S,9l2, and so
IN down to l4j in Welsh, l25 in Dutch,
6 in Polish, in Portuguese and in
Hungarian,
II is evident that these numbers do
not correspond with the number of i'm
migrants from each nation, for the
Dutch. Welsh and most Of the Eng
Gsh had Bibles of their own or de-
clined to receive any as gifts, while
many Italians and east European
folks could not read OF those able TO
read the highest average rs among the
Germans and the lowest among the
Italians. Next TO the Germans are the
Scandinavians and next TO them the
people of Great Britain of all races.
Many of those who received Bibles years
ago have since written to Mr.. jackson
tesdfying to personal benefit gained
from reading the book.
