been trying to explain to the policeman
that the dog dragged him into the river.

WEARIED OF MARRIED LIFE.
Albert Herts Says HIS Wife Was
Untrue During the Honeymoon.


Albert Hertz, OF 2s6 East Houston
street, has wearied of married life and
Is making efforts to regain the indie
pendence OF bachelorhood. He has en-
gagged a lawyer to bring suit In the
Supreme Court for divorce. but al
though the summons and complaint are
already drawn up. his wife. Ernestine
Loos Hertz. has 70 far succeeded In
eluding their service.
According to the papers In the case,
Ernestine Is now living at Coney Island
with q pawnbroker's son. This es-
capade the husband alleges, is only
one OF a series which have been render
ing life a burden to him since four
months after his marriage, which took
place two years ago.
The first link in this alleged chain OF
unhappiness came In the shape of a
young man who had courted trnestine
before marriage. Hertz says that when
Of his honeymoon he discovered
that this suitor mad only been tempo
rarily waived aside. not rejected. His
visits became more and more frequent.
and finally blossomed into an undls-
guised courtship. Hertz says he saw
that he was unweicome in his own
house, and SO Withdrew, leaving his

not entirely quenched. When, a couple
Of months later. his wife entrested HIM
to take her back, he did so and again
furnished a nice little home. Matters
went along smoothly for awhile, until
Hertz discovered. he says, that his wife
WAS again deceiving HIM. Night after
night she would go out, ostensibly for
shopping. but In reality for amusement.
He traced her, he says, to dancing
hall next door TO SILVER Dollar Smiths
saloon on Essex street.
When Hertz entered the place one
night he saw his wife, he says, trip

head resting placidly on the shoulder
of Henry Grossberg. Her eyes were SO
riveted upon the eyes OF her partner In
the dance, according TO the husbands
complaint, that she did not notice for
some time that she was observed. When
she DID awake to the CONSCIOUSNESS OF
her husbands presence, she neither
waltzed out OF the room with Gross
berg. and was next heard from In
Philadelphia.
From there she migrated to Atlantic
City, the partner Of her waltz going
with her.
Thence Hertx says he traced his wife

which led her even into dens OF vice.

Hertz says that his wife's alleged

REPUBLICANS have good reason TO
feel encouraged over the tariff outlook
in the senate. The only thing that
the republican members of the seuate
finance committee insisted upon ir
connection with the reporting of the
bill to the senate was that the Gebate
should not begin until Monday April ,,
and they carried their point. The bill
as reported is in such an unsatisfactory
shape that it cannot be passed by the
senate until material changes are made.
This is admitted even by those demo
Gratis who are most anxious for it to pas.
That gives the republicans q good fight
ing chance to defeat the bill outright,
and it will be token advantage of to the
fullest extent. 4 democratic senator
who desires the bill to pass remarked to
another senator: "It the republicans
are shrewd enough to vote solldly
against striking out the income tax
they can defeat the bill, as there are at
least seven democrats who will pever
vote for the bill with that clause in IT,
There may be something il that, but
great commercial pressure is being
brought to bear upon republican sena
tors for the purpose of getting them to
vote to strike out the income tax. So
far no binding agreement has been
made by repu blican senators as to how
hey shall vote, but it is probably that
some sort of an arrangement will be
made to keep their votes together.

ArIscoNsTRuCTING A TREATY

In agitatlrg the admission of New
Mexico, says the San Francisco
Bulle'ip, some effort is apparently being
made to establish a claim on congress
under treaty provisions. IL is urged
that the treaty promiFes that New
Mexico shall be made state at an early
date. This is apparently misconstruc-
tion of clause Of the treaty of Guada-
lupe Hidago. Article TX provides
that the Mexicans in the ceded territory
who do not preserve their Mexican
citizenship "shall be incorporated INTO
the union of the United States and be
admitted at the proper time Ito be
judged OF by the congress of the United
States) to the enjoyment of all the
rights Of citizens Of the United States
This article has 10 reference to the ad-
mission of New Mexico, or any other
portion of the ceded territory, as state
of the union. 1t was in tended specially
to cover the case of the Pueblo Indians.
Their semi-cIvilized condition made
| Mexico solicitcus about their ultimate
conditions under American rule. They
were not at the time proper m terial for
American citizenship. Recently there
has been some agitation in favor of their
admission to citizenship, but no decision
| has yet been reached.
