CRUEL TREATMENT.
Emma Cane Wants Divorce From
Her Husband.

Emma Cane Wants a Divorce From
Her Husband.
Another petition for divorce was
filed in the district clerks office
this morning. The suit is to be tried
by Judge Noonan at the next term
of the district court. The plaintiff
is Emma Cane, and she alleges
cruel treatment by Louis Cane.
They were married on July 20,
1886, in FriO county; and lived to-
gether until December, 1890. The
wife alleges that on several occa-
sions Cane threatened to kill her.
Fearing he would bring his
threats into execution she left
for her home in Pearsall, and
later went to Eagle Pass.
He followed her to Eagle
Pass and in December, 1890, while
going home from Ichurch, he vio-
lently seized her by the throat and
choked her; he also struck her in
the eve with his fist, inflicting a
serious wound and causing her eye
to turn black, her face to swell
and the blood to flow.
To all these assaults and threats
however, there are no reasons stat
ed in the petition.
The issue of the marriage is a
four-year-Old boy, and she asks for
the custody of the child's care. No
community estate is mentioned in
the petition.

AN OUTRAGE,
An American Flag Torn to Pieces Mt Hon.
Olulu.

An American Flag Torn to Pieces Mt Hon.
olulu.
From the Honolulu Commercial Advertiser, May 90
Every one knows. and every American is
proud Of the fact, that DR.. McGrew has the
largest American flag in Honolulu. Every one
also knows that the flag has always been at the
service of any one who wished to borrow it for
any patriotic purpose, whether Hawaiian or
American. 1t has played prominent part in
almost every patriotic celebration that has
taken place in Honolulu for years. and CDR.
McGrew's big flag has become almost house
hold expression in Honolulu. At the COM
mencement OF the recent troubles i. was hung
in front of the doctors residence. 1t has been
hanging there ever since, night and day, with
the exception of one or two occasions when it
has been placed in more prominent position.
notably, for Instance. at the opera house the
occasion of the farewell to the late Capt
Wiltse In fact the flag has almost come to be
regarded with veneration by Americans resid-
ing here.
With this introduction even the unsympa-
thetic reader may imagine the indignation
which pervaded the American community yes
terdsy morning when it became known that
this venerGted flag had been torn from its fast
cnings and literally torn to pieces. An Adrer-
hser reporter visited DR.. McGrew last night
and was shown what was left OF the flag. The
miscreants who were responsible for this das-
tardly deed have not yet been identified, al
though the police and some members Of the
Annexation Club are their track
II Is n source of congratulation that this
timeLonored flag has not been so badly injured
but that it can be repaired, after which it will
be put back i'll its old place. In the meantime
DIR. McGrew has put up another American flag
in the same place. and publicly announces that
it will not be healthy for any to fool with it,

three young colored men charged with the

Tue STAR's report closed to the arrest Of the
alleged murderers and to their confessions.
Lieut.. Hollinberger stated that Hardy de-
clared that Cant proposed the plan Of killing
Young for his money, and that they waited for
him outside Of his store, but CANT failed to
come on time. Accordingly when Young shut
up his store Hardy and Norris followed him
homeward- Arrived opposite the alley, the
scene OF the crime. they accosted Young and
in his poke. Hardy punched him in the
stomach with tho pick handle. Young doubled
over, and as he bent his head Hardy struck the
fatal blow. Norris grabbed the satchel, and to-
gether they ran to 1st and d streets southeast,
near Hardy's home where they divided the
spoils. Hardy got $40. five 81 bills and the
rest in change. Norris took tho rest and, he
supposed. afterward divided with CANT. The
officer urged Hardy not to commit double
murder by accusing an innocent man, but
Hardy insisted that Cant planned the murder
and divided the spoils, although he did not
actively assist.
WHAT OTHERS SAW.
Simon Carmody identified the pick handle rs
one which had been stolen from him about
week before Young's murder, and George Z.
Johnson. a small white bow. stated that he had
seen Hardy in Mr.. Young's store on the night
OF the murder. Hardy bought some cigarettes
and asked Young how much money he had
made that dav. Witness afterward saw Hardy
sitting on a water plug in front until Mr.. Young
shut up his store.
The last witness Of the day. and the one with
which the prosecution closed their case, WAS
Alice Thomas. & young colored girl. She testi-
fled that she Was on her way home about the
same time Mr.. Young and two colored
boys following him. Thew went Oh ahead and

what she thought was base ball bat Az he
fell the boys ran. She also. going to a
house near by, where she told wha. had &C.
CURED. The witness pointed out the prisoners
Norris and Hardy the boys she passing

THE FEARS OF THE CLERKS.
A Writer Who Thinks the Assurances Give
Are Of Little Protection.


In The STAR yesterday 1t was stated that
friends Of Secretary Lamont are indignant over
the reported lack Of confidence in the Secre-
tary's assurance that clerk in the record
and pension division need fear lest he would
lose his place on account Of testimony given at
the coroners inquest. ]. Y. Cremler writing to
The STAR says:
% Friends of Secretary Lamont do not seem
to understand the situation. Nobody is afraid
Of being dismissed for testifying to the truth
before the coroner's jury. When they are dis
missed it will not be for anything Of that Sort
1t will be for Incompetence for 'inefhciency,
for characterization for anything on earth
except the real reason. Still more probably
their lives will be made miserable by q multi
tude Of indescribably mean little annovances.
such as a constituencies superior officer who is
disposed to play the tyrant can invent, that
will make a well-conducted poor house q
preferable place. SO that the clerk who has
been indiscreet enough to tell the truth will be
driven to resignation or suicide. Such out
RACES as these Secretary Lamont would be
wholly powerless to prevent. for the clerk. even
If he could reach his ear. would be unable to
prove that his prosecutor was animated by any
other than this ostensible and asserted motive
1t Is evident that the secretary's friends re-
ferred to have never occupied Q subordinate
position in the government service or they
would understand the situation better"
