A special telegram TO The Times from
Louisville Ky, last night says:
Mrs. George :. Maxwell cannot be
found. Her maiden name was Ur. she
was married 10 Maxwell in 1884, and had
one child, now eleven years old. Max
We'll filed suit against his wife in Au-
gust, $3.50, charging ner with conduct I'M
becoming a wife. with an evil disposition
and profanity, and threats upon his life.
She filed Il counter claim. and denied all
allegations, alleging he had abandoned
and cruelty treated her. and that he
frequently tainted her with the state
ment that he married her through pique
at another woman's refusal.
In October, 1870, an agreement was
filed, in which the parties agreed TO bury
differences. Maxwell admitted that he
had been misguided by false witnesses
and that his charges against his WIG
were ungrounded and untrue. The ac-
ton was then dismissed.

saws he wrote to her from

why has she written TO Richmond

ronto use the phrase my present wife

the word present" as though mis-
take had been made. Does man
with only one wife speak of her as his

Sergeant Alexander TOmlinson, VINO
made some inquiries in Washington about
the matter, returncN last night, but
could throw no additional light on the
problem. lie usually solves mystery

Mason Telephone Company. in this city

business connection with the company.

RESENTED THE TEST.


Both Johns Wife and His Tongue Got the
Best of Him.
It wasn't late when the Pitcher street
man came home, and Notwithstanding
he walked in with smile and sat down
on the other side of the lamp-stand
from his wife, and picked up a news
paper, as men do when they come
home, she, fov some ppaccopntable
reason, suspected him. She looked up
over her work at him two or three
times, and finally spoke.

PRosPERs ON SILVER.


Gold Standard Countries Can Learn Prof
liable Lesson from Japan.
A nation has sprung up in the Orient
full-armed, with consciousness of
strength, whose past may but dimly
prophesy its future. Japan is on a
silver basis. Like Mexico, like India,
she has been prospecting through all
the great depression that has been
visiting the gold nations of the world.
Her men laborers get from IS to 20
cents day, and her women laborers
from to 10 cents. They got that in
1878, and they get it still. 1t buys for
them what it would buy twenty-five
years ago, and while England and the
United States have been paying gold
wages, Japan has been prospecting on
silver wages,
In the English consular report for
1899 return is given of the dividends
paid during the preceding twelve
months by twenty-one mills in Osaka.
The average dividend was is per cent,
the highest being % per cent, and the
lowest s per cent, The population of
Osaka increased from 354, 900 in 1884 to
476, 900 in 1890. The Japan Gazette of
September, 1890, gave the names of
eleven mills that paid an average divi-
dend of 16 per cent. for six months, as
against dividends of IL per cent. for
six months in 1893. At the same time
ninety-three spinning companies in
Oldham, England, showed net loss of
1850, 900, and the year before a net loss
$500, 600
What need to go into details? The
divergence of silver and gold is trans
ferring the business of the world to the
silver-using countries, and cheap labor
is winning against skill, industry, ed
ucation, experience.
More than any event that has oc-
Cured in the long series of years since
1873 the success of Japan makes neces-
sary the restoration of silver to its
place by the side of gold by interna-
tional agreement. Lancaster and
Manchester are feeling the sharp pinch
of Indian and Japanese competition.
No wonder the English sentiment for
bimetallism growing.
Japan, in the ardor of strength, in
the consciousness of greatness, gath
ering from the west the richest fruits
of occidental civilization, and true to
her own genius, starts on a career
whose end no prophet can foresee,
She is now the natural leader of halt
the population of the globe, all silver
using people.
And England has to meet this new
power. She cannot do it on the gold
standard. Cincinnati Com mercial-Gs

SILVER TO THE FRONT.

There Can BE No straddling or Dodging in
the Next COntest--The Issue Must Be
Squarely Met.
Senator Voorhees,, of Indiana, in a
late talk said that he did not regret
the agitation of the silver question.
Sooner or later it has to be definitely
settled whether the laboring, produc.
ing people of this country can be
bullied out of one-half of their debt
paying money, or whether they will
stand up like free men and protect and
defend the money named and provided
in the constitution-gold and silver
both-not one of the precious metals
alone, but both and on terms and con-
ditions as to coinage and use Of abso-
Lutte equality
The senator believes there is no bet
ter time than the present to start the
silver ball rolling and keep it going
until the white metal is fully recog-
nized. He is not willing to admit that
our system of currency should be die
tated by England and other foreign
countries. Mr.. Voorhees, declares that
"the real and vital issue presented to
the American people is the proposed
elimination of silver from our cur
rency, its total overthrow and de-
struction as a money metal and the use
of gold alone. This is what is now
meant by the movement against the
free coinage of silver, whatever may be
said to the contrary. This movement
means the destruction of one-half of
the debt paying money of the Unite d
States and of the world. If it should
be successful it will double the burdens
of every debtor and multiply the gains
and credits of every creditor wherever
the sun shines"
The senator discussed the sound
money nonsense" which he refuted
by the evidence of such eminent
friends of silver as Washington,
Jefferson, Hamilton, Madison, John
Marshall, Monroe, jackson, Clay
and other prominent men of our his
tory, and called attention to the fact
that "the danger from the coinage and
use of silver as money in this country
never occurred to a sane mind until
greed, avarice, unholy speculation
reared it's serpent head and aimed a
vicious, deadly blow at the honored
dollar of the fathers in 1878. In that
time we have had nothing but vexa-
ton, distrust, business depression and
ruinous panics,"
Mr.. Voorhees, closed his interview by
an unequivocal declaration for silver
as follows:
'If am told that silver bullion as a
marketable commodity at this time
commands low price, my answer is
If gold had been conspired against
