subpoenaed Miss Stanley.
The Casey divorce case was slowly
grinding in Judge Reeds court all day
yesterday.
In this case which has already at
tracted a good deal of interest, Mr.
Csey sues for divorce and Mrs. Casey
filed cross bill asking for allimony.
There was a considerable number of
spectators in the court room yesterday
but not a large crowd. Mr.. Casey in
troduced several witnesses during the
day among whom were Airs. ]. E. North
Mr.. and Mrs. d. NJ. Brown and Miss
Minnie Payne.
Mr. Casey's only charges against his
wife are that she was jealous and by
reason of that jealousy made it very
unpleasant for him. The witnesses were
neighbors of the Caseys and their tes-
timony went long way toward PROV
ing that Mrs. Casey entered some very
vigorous protests against her hus-
bands conduct. AS 10 whether these
protests were justifiabIe. why, that is
the question at issue.
Casey himself went on the stand and
told how his wife through JEALOUSY had
time ana again threatened TO come up
to the Office and discharge his type
writer. He further stated that he had
let one girl go and had hired Miss Stan
ley as his typewriter at the request of
his wife in order to keep peace in the
family.
Mr.. Casey became highly indignant
whenever Mr.. Haymaker asked a ques-
ton which in his opinion intimated
that Miss Stanley was more or less
than an eStima BILE woman. He told how
Mrs. Casey had hit him in the eye with
her fist all for the petty reason that she
claimed to have found something in his
pocket which she failed to describe
On cross examination Mr.. Casey adj
mitted that his wife had found stubs
of opera tickets in his pocket ana that
he had on a few occasions attended ope-
ia without taking his wife with him.
He could not remember of ever going
o the opera house with Mrs. Casey
though she had attended. Mr.. Casey
did not remember where he got the OPP
era tickets but Supposed that some
agents of troups that showed here had
given them to him. He still employed
Miss Stanley in the capacity of type
writer because she was very efficient
and reliable in her duties. He had no
other reason for retaining her.
Deputy Sheriff Hays created a small
sized sensation by going on the stand
and relating that the night before when
he went to Miss Stanley's room to serve
a subpoena on her that Mr.. Casey an
swered his rap at the door and that
Miss Stanley for some time persisted
in refusing to open the door so as 10
enable him to serve his subpoena.
Mr.. Casey's attorneys promise some
racy evidence today.

THE GIRL LEFT BEHIND Me.
Which is To be produced at the Craw-
ford Grand on Jan. 10, was produced
originally at the Empire theater, New
York. on Jan. -. 1898. II was the first
play ever produced in that JheaIer. and
was possibly the most successful play
ever seen there. 1t may be described
as an American drama III four acts
written around Indians and white men
with a stockade for the most starting
scene and Indian warwhoops for the
Incidental music. 1t has a cast Of
seventeen characters, and every hui
man emotion is brought into play dur
ing the action of the piece. II causes
the heart to stick in the throat most OF
the time. There is a strong love ele-
ment intimately connected with the gar
rison life and there are vivid contrasts.

WILL HOLD A CONFERENCE.
A State Official Will Meet the Oficers of
Kansas City building and Loan
Associations To-day.

Mr.. H. L. Gray, of jefferson City, deputy
state supervisor of building and loan as
sociations, arrived in the city yesterday,
and this morning at 10 o'clock at the
Midland hotel, will meet officially the rep
resentativss of the organizations doing
business in this city. The meeting will be
in the nature of II conference. and for the
formation of pleasant relations that
and the associations.
Under the law that was passed by the
the 2lst of June, every association doing
business in the state is to be examined.
both as to its present condition. assets and /.
methods in the past The law makes tN,
state treasurer the state supervisor, but
ness in his office to require his constafa,
law, two deputy supervisors. and they are
since the law became operative: TT. work
of examination has been confined i most
St. Louis, but is now being eonducted in
Hannibal and st. Joseph. The visit Of
Supervisor Gray here is formal. and he will
sons of the law and the requirements.
Later he and his assistants are to return
to the city for the complete examination Of
nature doing business here.
The local men, both of the local organi-
represented here have united In the ar
rangements for meeting Mr.; Gray, this
morning at tne conference. Inc COrQlalltN
with which he has been received in the
city was gratifying to him. In some of
the cities the ORGANIZATIONS have unwisely
little desire TO conform to the law. The
result was that some of the organizations
in St. Louis were hauled up in rather
summary manner and asked some' ques-
tions concerning their methods of doing
business and protecting their assets and
the claims of their creditors.
There are about $50 building and loan
organizations in the state. OF that num-
ber two-thirds are located in the city OF
St Louis. and that proportion of the bus
mess is done from that city. st. Joseph
and Hannibal have strong organizations.
and many of the smaller cities in the state
have made local organizations successful.
There are several national organizations
business here. and the general condition
of the business in this city is rather bet
ter that in most of the other cities for
the reason that there has been union of
effort and fraternal spirit among the or
so that all have shared the
together in whatever degree it
has come.
Ii is we'll known fact that prior to
the passage of the law the people We're
preyed upon by irresponsible companies and
great swindles We're perpetrated. 1t was
these abuses that called for the inspection,
and in order that the spirit of the law may

minute inspection is being made of all
assets 1t is believed the business is to be
put on better basis as the result of the
investigat tons, and legitimate companies
