Col. Robert G.. Smith. commandant OF the
Fourth Regiment, n. G. n. j.. has instituted pro-
ceedings for divorce from his wife, Clara NJ.

been filed In the Court of Chancery. The eta.
ton was served upon the defendant yesterday

ried to Clara NJ. Knapp on Dec. /, 1879. They
have six children, who are now living with their
father at 1902 Barrow street. Jersey City. Tho

DRAIN RUSHING TO MARKET.
Nebraska Roads Arc borrowing All the Grain
Cars They Can Get.

OMAHA. Aug. 1s.-Wheat and corn are moving
out OF Nebraska at the rate OF 500 cars a day.
Three-fourths of this Is new wheat. Every
thing that will hold grain on wheels is being
utilized by the railroads to get the shipments to
market on quick time. The rise In wheat prices
is partly responsible for this rush. The old corn
is being released In great quantities because the
new crop is assured.
That the Nebraska roads are not blockaded by
the grain trains is due 10 the extraordinary
energy Of the manageincnts in the state. \ car
famine exists on the branches because all tho
farmers want to get their grain to market the
same day, az they expect 10 get the benefit OF the
high prices. Ten times more grain is being
moved out Of Nebraska now than at any prevI-
vious time at this season OF the year. This IS n
conservative estimate OF the grain men. They
declare. however, that they can get all the grain
to market in good time.
The Burlington and Union Pacific are sending
part OF every day trains OF grain. fifteen cars
each, over their lines at the rate OF ono every
twenty minutes passing n given point, AT this
rate they anticipate thnt the rush will continue
six weeks. All Nebraska roads havo borrowed
all tho rolling stock they can secure. and have
rushed into the State from other States hun
dreds OF grain cars.

MoRE TRIBES REVOLT IN INDIA.
Troops Going TO the Erontier-The Gravest
ForebodinEs in England.

Special Gable Despdtches to TnE Sun.
SIMLA, Aug. 1s.-It is reported here that tho
Afridi t~ribesmon in tho northwest, who were
said a few days ago to have rovoltcd, arc march
ing through Kaiber Pass, and tho Orakzais,
another strong tribe, are threatening the town
of SANTANA, from which tho women aro being
sent to places OF safety. The Afridis have
hitherto been among tho most loyal OF the
Indian tribesmen and guarded Kaiber Pass
throughout the Afghan wars.
The reports Of the aggressive attitude Of the
Afridi and OrakZais trlbesmen Ia confirmed by
later advices, and it is feared by the British
political officers that there will DO a general
rising of the natives along the whole frontier.
The Afridis and the orakzais are the strongest
tribes on the Afghan frontier. Tho purpose OF
| the Afridis Is TO attack the town Of Kohat,
| which has been partly reinforced and to which
! poinL additional reinforcemcnts have been sent.
| The objective point OF the OrakZajs is the town
of Jamrood and ultimately tho city Of Peshawur.
LONDON, Aug, lS.-Tho latest intelligence re.
| ceived here from the Indian frontier causes the
gravest forebodings in London. Orders have
already been sent to tho military authorities in
India to concentrate all of the military resources
available and push operations against the rebels
with tho utmost vigor. Tho crisis is regarded
as far more serious than any that has arisen
since the Scpoy mutiny in 1857.
1t is recognized that tho greatest danger on
the Indian frontier is that tho religious fanati-
cism Of the rcbels will spread to tho ranks
of the native troops, among whom are
many Afridis. 1t Is said somi-of1cially that
nothing has occurred TO indicate that
such danger is creator now than formerly"
but the authorities are undoubtedly anxious.
The bulk OF tho troops now at the front arc ma
| tives, and they are excellent defenders SO long
as their loyalty is not contaminated.
As soon as 1t was known In Simla that the
orakzais and Afridis had risen the Government
ordered that q battery of British horse artillery,
two squadrons Of British hussars, and two com.
panies Of British infantry hasten to Peshawar.
This is obviously u precaution against possible
disAffections.
Tho seriousness Of tho situation Ia evident
from the fact that there arc now $1,000 troops
on the northwest frontier, 1890 in the Tochi
Valley, 10000 at Malakand. $500 at Rawal
Pindi. and a reserve of IL. 1000 at Peshawar and
Kotal.
The military movements actively continue,
and the railways are very busy carrying troops
and supplies.
1t is reported that tho town Of Jamrood 10 abb

equipped with artillery.
