HOME TIES BROKEN.


Charles ID. Chambers II suing his wife,
Doliie NJ. Chambers. for divorce. Accord
ing 70 his complaint. filed yesterday In the
superior court they were married IN Port
land. Or. July "A. 1880. A little less than
five years later hts wife deserted him. and
he has never since that time been able TO
persuade her 10 return to make her home
with him.
SIR. Chambers charges that his wife has
In Numerous Instances conducted herself
In an unsifeiy manner. He says that
while he was with her in San Francisco
In June In 1855 he tried TO get her 10 come
With him to Seattle. but she obsttnately
refused 10 do so. Later. In the fall Of that
year. he took = business trip 10 Salt Lake
City. lie had made ali arrangements for

moment she refused TO so. by that time
~ appears that she had joined him in Sc
attic. Al any rate. he states that she left
this city on the steamer WalIa Walla,
having sold all the household furniture
and appropriated the proceeds 10 her own
use. On reaching San Francisco she pre-
tended to go on to Berkeley, Cal, and de-
luded him into the belief that she was in
Berkeley, when in fact she was all the
while la San Francisco, Where she re-
manned long time, without her hus-
bands knowledge or consent.
On coming back TO Seattle in the sum
mer OF last year she took up her abode al
her husband as TO her whereabouts. He
was absent from the city. and she repre-
sented TO him that she was living at 30
Columbia street. and mad him send her
letters 10 that address.
Last fall he wrote her that be was COM
ing home. and asked her TO meet him in
Portland. AS soon as she learned that he
was coming she skipped out for Butte.
Mont. whence she has since written him.
under date Of last month. telling him that
she was able to look out for herself and
that henceforth she would go her own
way
Mr.. Chambers names no correspondents
in his complaint. but he charges that his
wife mt various times. both In Seattle and
elsewhere, has accepted invitations TO din
ner parties at places of duestionab bile resort
with men OF shady reputation.
lie simply asks for a divorce. No chill

no property left to be divided.

CONSIDERS THE CUBAN PROBLEM.
Tells the story of the Islands Years of I'm
rest and Discomfort.

The most important problem with
which this government is now called
upon to deal pertaining to its Foreign re-
lations concerns it's duty toward spain
and the Cuban instruction. Problems
and conditions more or less in common
with those now existing have confronted
this government at various times in the
past The story of Cuba for many years
has been one Of unrest; growing dis
content: an effort toward larger en-
ioyment of liberty and self-control; OF
organized resistance to the mother
country; of depression after distress
and warfare, and of Intellectual settle
ment to be followed by renewed revolt.
For no enduring period since the en-
reimbursement of the continental pos
sessions of Spain in the western con-
tipent has the condition of Cuba or the
policy of Spain toward Cuba not caused
concern to the United States.
The prospect from time to time that
the weakness of Spain's hold upon the
island and the political vicissitudes ana
embarrassments of the home govern
ment might lead to the transfer of Cuba
10 a continental power called forth, be-
tween 1923 and 1Se0, various emphatic
declarations of the policy OF the Unit
ed States to permit no disturbance OF
Cuba's connection with Spain unless In
tbe direction of independence or ac-
ouisition by us through purchase, nor
has there been any change OF this de-
cIared policy since upon the part or the
government. The revolution which be-
San in 1868 lasted for ten years, despite
the strenuous efforts of the successive
peninsular governments to suppress II.
'rben as now the government or the
limited States testified its grave concern
and offered it's aid to put an emo 70
bIoodshed in Cuba. The overtures MADE
by General Grant were refused ana the
war dragged on, entailing great loss OIL
life and treasure and increased injury
