then p years old, and was living with
her husband, David c. Brennan. and her
three daughters in Brooklyn They were
IN comfortable circumstances and no
trouble ever marred the household until
AR. Cortlnis appearance.
Mr.. Cortini, she alleges, professed to
fall desperately in love with her. He told
her he was millionaire and he would
provide for her handsomely if she would
get divorce. She finally left her hus-
band and sued for divorce. A decree
was granted in 1887. She did not ask for
alimony because she relied implicitly or
Mr.. Cortini's promises. She then lived
with Cortini, she asserts, and believed she
was his wife, though at his request they
passed as Mr.. and Mrs. Forster. She
says Mr.. Cortinl told her in May, 1882,
that he had another wife and he intended
to sever his rela tions with her. She was
in poor health at the time and he advised
her to go TO California. She demands
100000 damages for a miserable and

Troops.

Cripple Creek, Colo, June 6-There
will be no battle between the fortified
union miners on Bull hill and the army
Of deputy sheriffs, who are now en-
camped on Beaver Greek, less than five
miles from Bull HILL unless a treacher-
GUS move is made by one side or the
other.
The aspect of affairs was decidedly
warlike until O'clock this afternoon.
Although the deputies cut all telegraph
lines between this city and Midland,
the miners were quickly informed by
their scouts, of the advance of the sher-
if s force, and prepared for battle
They were willing to surrender TO the
militia, but declared they would never
submit to arrest until after the troops
arrived. Major Lindsay and President
Parker, of the First National bank,
called up Sheriff Bowers by telephone
and begged him to stop the deputies
until the troops could reach the camp.
The sheriff adhered to this, and there
is every reason to believe that there
will be no further hostilities.
Alexander Mcintosh, represcntiDe the
miners, announced that they would lay
down their arms Immediately on the
arrival Of the state troops The depu-
ties will follow the troops to the min
erS camp and serve warrants which
they are said to hold for 200 strikers

Washington, D. c., June 6.-[Special.l
"A favorable report was made TO the
House today on the bill of Representa-

from paying assessment on claims for
the present year. Temporary action
was taken last year by Congress, and
the committee state that, owing to the
