Florence A. Hearth Given a Divorce
From w. II. Hearth.

Florence A. Hearth Given a Divorce
From w. j. Hearth.
Florence A. Hearth was yesterday
granted a divorce in Judge Johnson's S
court from w. ]. Hearth. The ground
was desertfon and failure to provide.
The real complainant in the case was
the husband, who alleged desertion on
the part of his wife. The latter, how
ever, filed a oss-complaint and her
self secured the decree that legally sep
arates the couple. The court also al
lowed her S15 a month alimony.
According to Mrs. Kearth's testimony
the parties were married in 1882.
Hearth was an employe of the railroad
company, but did not properly provide
for his family, and she was obliged to
leave him and go to her mother. once
at Kearths solicitation, and on his
promise to do better, she returned to
live with him, but matters were simply
getting worse and she again left him.
He is now somewhere in Oregon.
Mrs. Kearth's attorney was Charles
f Gardner of the firm of Alexander
Miller & Gardner.

THE INSURGENT REVERSES !

President Thomas Estrada Palma, of the

That Recognition by This Country
Would Secure Independence.

HAVANA, Jan. "Details OF the engage
ment in the ncighborhood of Guanatay,
reported yesterday, show that General
Navarro, between Guanaiay and Gelba,
overlook numerous insurgent force un-
der Hayas and other leaders During the
three hours fighting which followed the
Spanish artillery was called into play, and
the insurgents are reported to have been
routed with loss of twenty three killed
and forty-three wounded left on the field.
The Insurgents are said to have carried
away many more of their wounded, and
thev l'ft seventeen Remington rifles be
hind them.
General Navarro pursued the insurgents

Augua, and in the skirmish which fol
lowed four insurgents were killed and
three were taken prisoners. On the gov

RECOGNITION ALONE NEEDED.


And President Palma Says Cuba Would
Soon be Free.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-President Thomas
Estrada Palma, of the Cuban revolution.
ary committee, in an interview on the
prospects of the insurgents said:
'By its own admission the Spanish gov
ernment has sent 1913, 900 soldiers to the
island. Adding those who have volun-
teered and been conscripted by the num-
Der is easily 100000 That immense army
has been sent to a territory not larger than
the state of New York for the purpose of
doing what was represented to be the up
rising of a few bands of bandits and
negroes. 1t was represented by the Span
ish government that when the dry season
commenced the rebellion will be easily
crushed. What are the true facts? The
dry season has seen a slight advance of the
revOlutionist forces from the west to the
east and the very provinces where the
great cane fields are situated have been
entered
"You ask me why the Cubans are de-
vastatng the cane fields The Cuban gov
ernment is a de facto government, and it
issued orders that no cane should be
ground, because it is from the tax on su-
gar that Spain gets her sinews of war
Those orders were violated, and the Cuban
government showed its power to punish
those who violated them. 1t is precisely
the same principle which was followed in
the south by the United States govern
ment during the year of the war of the re-
bellion. We are attacking the resources
of the enemy.
IF the senate and house of representa-
tives would equip themselves with proper
knowledge of the conditions of Cuba the
recognition of our rights as belligerents
would, ] believe be quickly forthcoming
We would show the world then how
quickly we would take Havana and other
ports, and assume full independence of the
Spanish government"

THE TARIFF IN THE SENATE.
The House Bill VIII be Reported with
out Amendment.

out Amendment.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-The feature of
the Republican senatorial caucus held
yesterday was discussion of the advis-
ability of amending the house tariff bill by
adding a free coinage amendment to it in
the senate, and this discussion was con
fined largely to the free coinage wing of
the party. The result of the meeting was
the adoption Of Senator Quay's resolution
expressing the sense Of the caucus to be
that the senate committee should report
the bill as it came from the house. with %
few verbal changes which will not alter
the meaning of the measure in any essen
tial feature. There was no roll call upon
this motion, but there We're few dissent
ing voices
There was no formal effort to bind the
senators to support the bill when it should
come before the senate and it was left
open to amendments at that stage of the
proceedings. 1t was while the advisability
of attempting to secure pledge of sup
port was under consideration that the sill
yer question came up. 1t was sprung by
a question as to what the silver Republi-
cans would do in case a free silver amend
ment should be offered to the tariff bill in
thesanate. The consensus of opinion was
that they would content themselves with
an effort for the senate silver substitute
for the house bond bill.
There was Il general expression of opin-
ion that the tariff bill, whether amended
or unamended in the senate, never would
become law. Several senators expressed
the opinion that it could not receive ex-
ecutye sanction.
