MARYLANDERS FEEL GOOD.
They Listen to Republican Speeches
and Predictions.

The Maryland Republican Club held a
largely attended ana enthusiastic meeting
| last night at No. 339 Pennsylvania avenue.
In the absence of the president OF the
club, Mr.. b. ii. Warner, Mr.. Trainor, the
vice president, acted as chairman. The
entire evening was devoted To oratory of
a congratulatory sort, closing up the clubs
campaign in Maryland with a kind of
jubilee over Tile victory which they feel
certain will result from next TUESDAYS
balloting.
Prof. Alexander Christie drew a parallel
| between the conditions now existent and
the days OF 81. He enumerated the man Y
failures of the Democratic party TO per-
form its promises, and claimed as the best
characteristic of the parry that it always
went to pieces under any great public
strain.
AT the close of Prof. Christie's speech. a
large number of ladies entered the hail and
the chairman welcomed them i'll u neat ad
| dress, and proposed three cheers for the
thusiastic.
DR.. A. P. Pardon followed with u short
characteristic speech, predicting vitory in
his own State. New Jersey, by $4,000 and
appealing to Maryland to follow suit.
Mr.. Spencer, announced, amid applause,
that the betting odds in Chicago, where
Mr.. Bryan is now speaking, were to /.
Mr.. Needham in his remarks, touched
| upon the financial points at issue, and
| deprecated the attack of Mr.. Bryan and
| his party upon the Supreme Court.
b. F. Crawshaw and Judge o. D. Barrett
made short addresses. Upon the platform
were many prominent citizens Ut Mary
| land and the District.

NO DIVORCE FOR MRS. SUESS
Court Will Not Accept the Majors
Confession OF Guilt.
Judge Wants Proof Of the Ad-
mitted WrongdOing Which
Led to the Suit.

Mrs. Nellie V. SuesS, who sued her hus-
band, Major Otto l.. Sues for divorce has
been refused decree. The case was de
cided Wednesday by Judge Hagner, who, in
a lengthy opinion, denied the application
on The ground that confession of guilt
unsupported by other testimony is not suf-
ficicnt.
Mrs. Suess, in her petition. for divorce
alleges that her husband was devoted ami
lnduisent TO her up to two years before
sue HE'D the suit. AtouL that time stit.
had reason 10 suspect him, and one night
when lie leIt home his wiIe fuiiow,.,.-
She saw him enter a house ON C street
..nu w..Ucneu l:is actions through window
Neat morning she charged him with The
oifense and he admitted his guilt
The testimony was taken before r.
Newton Donaldson and two clerks in the
fenSion Office testified that Suess had told
Them That his wife had discovered him
in wrong place.
letter was offered in evidence from
suess to his wife, in which he again ad-
ihitted his guilt, and added that he would
make no defense.
Judge Hagner, in his opinion, held that
there was not sufficient proof. He said
tnat no admission contained in the answer
OF the defendant can be tAIcu as proof
OF the facts charged, on the ground of
tneir application, but the same shall he in
an cases proved by other evidence. This
law he says, results from the Fundamental
principle that the public constitutes n
third party in every divorce suit He also
says that no decree can be found on the
soie evidence OF the confessions of the de-
fendant out Of court He holds that If the
evidence OF the confcssor We're alone suf-
Ncient the marriage Would be placed n,
WIN OF the parties in Illustration OF the en-
tire policy of the law
Judge Hacher. in concluding, said: Not
"ithstandinG confessions are admissible
ana may in cases be evidence of the strong.
est character, there must be accompanying
evidence tending directly to prove the
issue and to rebuff the probability or
chance of colluson"
lie, therefore, refused the divorce as
lhe case now stands, but will allow Mrs
suess to show any new evidence to the
court. "
