SAYS HIS WIFE WAS VERY BAD.
So Plumber DAILY Wants the Absolute
Divorce She Occurred Set Aside.

The wife of james A. DAILY. boss
plumber who makes his headquarters
with Stephen Lanahan at No. CA Spring
street, in 1894 secured an absolute divorce
from her husband. through Judge Me-
Adams. DAILY did not put in an appear
ance. lie now claims that he was not
aware that ais wife put In evidence
which reflected upon his character. He
brings II petition to annul the decree on
the ground that 1t was obtained by col
fusion and fraud. incidentally he brings
suit against Adam Hahn, n piano dealer
in business at No. a Union square, for
S25 900.
DAILY Is represented by Lawyer II. NJ.
Powell of No. 81 Maiden lane. and says
in his complaint that his wife, previous
to marrying him was welded TO a man
named Miller in Brooklyn, and that he
secured an absolute divorce from her.
DAILY claims he met her at No. 81 Hes
ter street, then. he says, an unsayory
place. She promised to reform, he says,
and they opened Il boarding house, and
everything went well until Mr.. Hahn
appeared and sold them a piano. This
was in November, 1891. Very shortly
after this date Mrs. DAILY disappeared,
and her husband alleges that she went
to live with Hahn and was practically
his wife when the suit was brought.

Andrew G. Warnings Domestic Peace
Ruined by the Temperance Of
an Old Beau.
SUIT FOR 4 SEPARATION FOLLOWS.
The Husbands Protest cut Short by His
Wife Throwing Her Wedding Ring
in His Face.

According to the story OF Andrew G..
Waring, set forth In atiidavits presented
| In his suit for separation against his
wife, Laura, he has been very much
abused man. The case was to have come
up yesterday on the application of the
| defendant for counsel fee and alimony
pending the settlement of the action,
but as none of the Justices of the Su-
preme Court put in an appearance,
postponement was taken until Monday.
Mr.. Waring Is and has been for many
years employed as an operator in the
commercial news department Of the
Western Union Telegraph Company.
He is well known in South Brooklyn as
an amateur illusionist and magician.
In reciting his grievances plaintiff says
that he was married to the defendant
on March %. 1888. The couple have two
| children, Granville, aged ten, and
Laura, eight years of age, who are at
present living with their mother at
Woodside, N. ]. MIR. Warning does not
make any specific charges. but men,
| tions on, Percy S. Tunison as being
mainly responsible for his trouble.
Plaintiff says that for more than
year his wife treated him so badly that
he considered il no longer safe or proper
| for him to live with her. He put up
| with her abuse, however, until April
| q last, when. he alleges, his wife de-
serted him and took his children with
her. He said 1t was some time before
he could locate his missing spouse, but
| finally ascertained that she had To-
Gated in New Jersey.
| 1t. appears from the plaintiffs aft
| dayit that prior to his marriage to the
defendant she had been engaged to

peared on the scene. Mr.. Warning says
that after Tunison materialized HIS wife
| told him to get out, as she never
size the statement he says, she drew
! Off her wedding ring and threw II at
| him, striking him on the nose. A little
later, plaintiff says, his wife informed
loved the latter better than she did him,
and that she would marry. him some day.
| Mr.. Warning said he. allowed all this
I to pass for the sake of his children, but
able. he spoke to his wife about reeeiy-
ing attentions from Tunlson. His wife's
reply TO this, he declares, was that she

into the grocery and butcher business.
The store mas been opened by Father
Ksiadz Bolestaw Kwiatkowski, the
priest Of St Michaels r. G. Church. II
his expectations are realized the stock
will be added to and branches will be
opened soon for the sale Of clothing, dry
goods and general merchandise.
Father Kwiatkowski has q large con-
Eregation. He Is also pastor of the Slav-
oman Catholic congregation of St.
Marie OF the Assumption. Both fiocks
trade at his store. Many English-speak-
ing residents Of the neighborhood buy
provisions there. The store has been
open only a week, and five men are re-
nuired to handle the business.
Father Kwia tkowski is not more than
thirty years old, spare of frame and
pale. He speaks English little and is
conversant with German. Slavonic,
Czech and Russian and can speak Latin,
Greek and Hebrew.
II have two objects in starting the
store" he said through an interpreter.
First, I want to protect my people
from being robbed by other storekeep-
ers, and second, to add to the income of
the church. The church is poor and so
are the people, and they will remain 40
as long as shrewd merchants take adj
vantage of the Poles simplicity and
charge them double prices for every
thing they buy. In our church store the
goods will be sold at a fair profit and
the earnings will go to the church."
DO you expect the venture to pay?''
asked the reporter.
Every dollar ! have in the world and

into the store. and l would not do that

Bursting PONDS Off Sandy Hook.

At the Sandy Hook dynamite gun bat
terry tests were made yesterday of one
of the fifteen-inch guns. which has a
length of fifty feet. Three dummy
shells were fired first and afterwards
two shells loaded with 800 pounds of
high explosives. The guns were ele-
waited so that the shells would drop into
the middle of the main ship channel.
Each shell when 1t struck would throw
up a volume of water to an estimated
height OF 400 feet. The concussion could
be felt on shore and on vessels in the
vicinity. The passing of vessels pre-
vented the gun from being fired quickly,
as IT was intended to strike a certain
point in the channel, and small vessels
were often in the way. Great care was
taken TO avoid accident. The results
were very satisfactory.

night The road is very steep and the

piled the brakes. but the pin fell out OF

useless.
Hughes shouted to Conductor Black

to be defective. The shouts OF the
| motorman aroused the passengers to a
realization of their danger. Through
the steamed windows of the car they
could see that they were going down

ductor and motorman remained ut their
posts. although they could do nothing
to check the car. They resigned them.

As they were whirling along at the
rate OF mile a minute, they became
frantic, but the conductor had fastened
the front door so none of them could
escape. The motorman was on guard
at the other door. To jump from the
car meant death, and to remain inside
was trusting to good fortune. The con.
ductor rang the bell and shouted tc

DAILY COTTON LETTER.

Following IS the daily cotton letter OF
Atwood Violet & Co.. Of New York. by
private wire to c. w. Branch d Co.:
The features OF this market to-day has
been the issuance of June notices. which
was stopped largely by q prominent firm
here TO the extent of their holdings, and
although notices are still running, the
fact that any were being stopped at all
strengthened the market, and the closing
is = points higher than yesterday, al
though Liverpool closed firm at l point
lower, after having been = points lower
last night. our New Orleans advices
are that no notices were stopped there
for export; also that quotations had been
advanced LIE. and that business is re-
stricted by scanty offerings. Crop re-
ports are rather conflicting, accounts
being good, bad and Indifferent. Waco,
Texas. and Fort Valley, Ga, as well as
report of Georgia weather bureau, in
dicates considerable injury to the crop
from various causes. We have seen,
also, advces to other houses here, one
from Savannah, reporting damage by the
recent cool weather, as usual, at this
season. Crop reports viii vary, and VIII
be better or worse, according to the
weather conditions prevailing over so
large a section as the cotton belt The
Government report Of June 10Th will
give not only the acreage for the coming
season, but the crop condition up to LIST
of June. Therefore. what may Jake
pace uuIlHs the next SIX Gays Will largely
give the tone to that report so far as
what they may say about the crop IS
concerned. The liquidation Of the June
interest has been about 10000 bales in
this market. and would have been con-
siderably larger had it not been pre-
vented by the stoppage Of notices as
above mentioned. Interior receipts,
3 800 bales, against 800 bales last year;
interior stocks. 10000 bales. against
$4,000 bales last year; amount that came
into sight this week is 81 900 bales,
against $4,000 bales last year.
