SUPPLEMENTAL BILL.
Mrs. Bagaley Makes Further Charges
Against Her Husband.

BE
Against Her Husband.
Mrs. Olga P Bagaley today, through her
attorney, Mr.. Campbell Darlington, filed a
petition in the divorce suit filed by her
against Waterman P. Bagaley, the 18th of
last December, praying that she be granted
leave to file supplemental bill.
In her petition for divorce, Mrs. Bagaley,
who is said to be an Italian countess, also
asked for the custody Of the three children,
and prayed THAT her husband be restrained
ard enjoined from visiting her home, or in
any way annoying, harassing or Interior
ing with her or the children. In the petit
ton filed today, she charges that last July
her husband met one H. T. Wiswall in a
public eating house, flourished revolver in
his face, saying: Some one is going to get
killed today.' Later that day Mrs. Bagaley
states that her husband was prevented
from going to Gaithersburg, Md, where she
was residing. for the purpose, she charges,
there because of her fear Of him. She
states that Mr.. Bagaley was convicted two
days later in the Police Court of carrying
concealed weapons.
answered her petition for divorce by declar-
irg that divorce he obtained from Anna
Maria Bagaley was illegally procured, and
that prior to a legal divorce from said wife,
ne married petittoiieI, anu Ina as coi-
sequence his children by petitioner are il
legitimate, and he is not legally married to
her. She charges. too, that since the filing
of her petition for divorce the defendant
has time and again threatened to take her
life or do her great bodily harm, and that
she is in great fear that he will carry such
threats into execution, and further that he
will injure the children, and for that reason
she is now residing in Maryland, although
she would much prefer to return to this
city.
For these reasons she prays for leave to
file a supplemental bill of complaint, with
such prayer for relief as she may be prop
erly entitled to.

statement of attorneys for the defense that
they would be ready to proceed, drew to
the city hall a crowd that could not sgct
admission to a room ten times the size of
the apartment set aside for the trial. The
fact that the defense in its opening state
ment would reveal for the first time the
nature of evidence relied upon for an ac-
uuittal served to arouse public interest to
O degree never before seen in California at
a trial of a man for his life.
The hot, sultry day was intensified in
the crowded court room. Although the
occasion was of the gravest Importance to
Durrant, he was the coolest and most i'm
passive individual present.

examination Detective Gibson, Deputy

The Lieutenant General Of the Army
to Retire.
Els LONG AND HONORABLE CAREER
Services During the War Of the
Rebellion and Since.
HIS MISSION TO FRANCE

The present week marks the close Of the
active military career of Lieut.. Gen. John
NJ. Schofield. He becomes sixty-four years
of age next Sunday, and because of that
fact he win be relegated to the retired list.
Such is the law governing the military es-
Enlistment. and from its mandate there Is
no appeal. Consequently Gen. Schofield will
relinquish his honored post at the head of
the army at the close of business Satur-
day, and, according to general belief, Gen.
N. S. Miles. the senior major general, will
succeed to the command of the army, with
headquarters in this city, and Gen. Kruger.
the officer next in line, now on special duty
at the War Department, will succeed Gen.
Miles In command OF the Department of
the East, with headquarters at New York.
The retirement of Gen. Schofield will make
no promotions in lineal rank. The grade of
lieutenant general was revived for his spe-
cial benefit aud expires on his retirement.
While the lieutenant generalcy expires with
his term, Gen. Schofield will receive the in
creased retired pay and allowances which
go to an officer of that rank, equal to the
pay and allowances of major general on
the active list.
His Long and Honorable Career.
Gen. Schofield has been a prominent
figure in the history of the United States
during and since the war, and his record
is most creditable one. He was born in
Chautauqua county, N. Y, September 20,
1881, and was appointed a cadet at the
Military Academy from Illinois in 1s49 At
ated No. in the class of 1858. Gen. P. H.
Sheridan and Gen. ]. B. Mcpherson were
members Of the same class. On graduation

From his incisive manner, firm STEP
