The Commercial Club Committee to
Consider the Matter of Changes.
The matter of any changes to be made
in the We'll residence which is to be the
home of the new Commercial Club is left
in the hands of the board of governors,
but no determination of what is to be
done has vet been reac he'd.
MIR. |. B. Tiedeman, who is on the COM
mittee that arranged the purchase, said
yesterday that the residence is in almost
every respect as conveniently arranged
for the purposes of the club as could be
desired, and so far as he saw there would
be few or no changes to be made, with
the possible exception of the arrange
ments for certain quarters which are pc
culiar to clubs.
He said so far as he has learned the
large majority of the members who have
so far joined the club are. greatly pleased
with the purchase, and the club will be
able to take charge of its new quarters
within a few DAYS.
The work ofraising the additional 81, SOC
of the cash payment is going, on and as
soon as the details of this are arranged
the club will be in possession. The mat
ter of the arrangement of the remainder
of the Indebtedness is left in the hands OF
the board of governors.

nahians are Interested.
Mrs. Hattie f. Bucki has secured a
legal separation from her husband The
Bucki suit has been one of the most
notable of New York divorce trials. Mrs.
Bucki is daughter of Mr.. S. H. Eckman,
of Eckman Il Vetsburg, of this city. Her
husband was Charles Bucki, a prominent
lumber merchant Both were we'll known
in New York and here. Mrs. Bucli, be-
sides a legal separation, gets $500
year alimony. Her charge against her
husband was i'll conduct.
Mrs. Bucki was married May "a, 1887
She was then about % years of age, while
he was about 40. They went on a wedding
I tour to Europe. Finally, some months
ago a separation occurred, when MIR
Buck let his house in New York on the
plea of financial embarTa tsiftt, aud
wanted his wife to go and live at second
class hotel. They had not lived amicably
before that, as she charged that her
health was injured by his physical
and mental cruelty. She declared
that he drank, gambled. and CON
sorted with gamblers. and Inundated
her in every way before both his and her
relatives. He would come home late at
night and on one occasion his feet were
hanging out of the carriage when he
butler to take sides with him in his do
nestle troubles, and he refused to allow
any of her family to come into the house
On more than one occasion the door was
locked when she came home with mem
bers of her family, and at. one time he
called in an officer to put her sister out of
| the house.
Mr.. Bucki, who is a member of the
Manhattan Club and the vice president of
| the Yellow Pine Lumber Company, denied
! the accusations of cruelty. and attributed
! their troubles to members of the wife
! family.
Judge Ingraham, of the court granting
the separation, in his decision says: ''The
| general term of the supreme court on ap-
! peal from the order granting alimOny in
! this case has held that the allegations in
the complaint, if supported by the evil
! dence on the trial. will entitle the plain
! tiff TO the judgment prayed for | have
! thus only to determine whether the sub
stantial facts alleged in the complaint
have been proved on the trial, and it is
sufficient to say that the impression pro-
duced on hearing the witnesses, confirmed
by careful examination of the testimony
since it has been submitted, has satisfied
me that the substantial allegations of the
complaint are true. think it clear that
the whole course of the defendant in his
conduct to his wife has been such as to
render it unsafe and improper for her to
cohabit with him. and l believe it will be
to the advantage of both parties to be sep
arated by judicial decree. Judgment is
therefore directed for the plaintiff" The
alimony will be increased in case the cir
cumstances of Mr.. Bucki change for the
| better,
