NO FOUNDATION FOR THE RuMoR.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2S.-R slatives of Mrs. Russell Harrison, now in this city, pronounce as perfectly absurd the rumor that she had taken up her residence in South Dakota for the purpose of making application for divorce from her husband. They say the foundation for the rumor, if it ever had any, doubtless arose from the fact that Mrs. Harrison spent the month of August at the Hot Springs of South Dakota, where, upon advice of her physician, she took her little daughter, Marthenia, who by an attack of scarlet fever while in the White House. Little Marthenia was greatly benefited by her stay at Hot Springs and the paralysis has almost entirely dis appeared. Mrs. Harrison has since resided in rerre Haute with her husband, where he is president of a street railway company, though she is just now spending the holi- days with her parents, Ex-Ssnator and Mrs. Saunders. in Omaha.
