NOT GOOD IN ENGLAND.
The American Divorce Has No Standing
There.

New York, Aug. pa dispatch from
divorce has again reasserted with IN
phasis the doctrine tina an American
divorce, no matter how legally OBJ
tanned. is not recognizable under the
English law. and Sir Francis Jeune,
the presiding Judge Of the court. has
gone 50 ar as to refuse permission for
an appeal upon this point to the high
est authority. the supreme high court
of adjudicature. The issue was pre-
scented In an application for "A divorce
made by Mrs. Emily Jane Cox. wife
of a civil engineer who, In 1897, went to
the United States to manage some
mining property. His wife refused to
accompany him when he sailed, and
persisted in declining to taxi up her
residence in the I'm ted States, even
after her husband had taken out his
naturalization papers for the purpose OF
becoming an American citizen. on
June /, 1894. he filed a bill for a divorce
ON the grounS Of desertion. in the cir
cult court Of Chicago, and a decree was
granted on the 18th of October follow
ing. Shortly afterward Cox married
again. Sir Franci II held that UNI
der English law the Illinois divorce
was illegal, that the husband, Alfred
Cox, vas guilty of big3my and adultery,
and granted the Engl sh wife a divorce
whit the custody of the only child.
and assessed The costs, amounting to
81 900, against the husband. 1t is
needless to add that the latter are not
likely to be collected so long as Cox re-
mdnis in the United States.

WINDOW DRESSERS' FlASC0
The Advertised National Convention Did

The Advertised National Convention Did
Not Meet in Chicago.
Chicago, Aug. 1.-the doors OF Bat.
terry ID were closed this morning, and
the Interior of the big hall was dark
and dreary. According to circulars
with which TIE country has been flood
ed. q greet national convention of
window dfessers was to have opened in
the battery today, with delegates In
attendance from nearly every state and
territory in the union. Not a few Of
these delegates succeeded in getting
their pictures into their local papers,
together with an elaborate outline o.,
what the convention proposed to ac-
complish. 1t happened, however, that
the window dressers of Chicago had
not been consulted concerning the pro-
posed demonstration, and a little inves-
tigation on their part resulted in the
disclosure that the project was a fake,
fraud and imposition, and a declaration
to this effect vas signed by the win
low dressers Of Marshall Field a. Co.,
Schlesinger a. Mayer. Mandel Bros.
Siegel. Cooper & Co, and twelve other
large Houses. 1t transpired this morn
ing that the hall had not even been
engaged for the convention that had
been so widely advertised. The editor
of a trade paper is held responsible for
the fiasco.
