KMETz TO WED
 MRS. MALINAK
BetrOthed to the Wife of the Condemned Murderer of
 Mrs. Kmetz
Special Dispatch to The Call.

Special Dispatch to The Call.
 NEW YORK, Feb. 4.-The belief that Michael Kmetz, who left Newark and went to Hungary several months ago, had gone thither to wed Marie Malinak wife of the man who murdered Mrs Kmetz last July. has been confirmed by a letter received this week by Daniel Zedlak, Q Newark saloon keeper. The latter Is cousin of Mrs. Malinak. Mali nak is now under sentence of death in Newark. He was to have been hanged on January 27, but his execution was stayed by the taking of his case to the Court ol Errors and Appeals.
 The information contained in the letter to Zedlak is meager, but from a woman who recently arrived from Hungary and who knows all the persons concerned he has heard of the plans for the marriage of Kmetz and Mrs. Malinak. The latter has requested him to assist her in obtain ing a divorce from her doomed husband and he will do what he can for her.
 kmetz, says Zedlak, is living in Hann- sooZce, Hungary. About a month ago, on Sunday, he went to Hethors, where Mrs. Mainak lives. He met her as she came out of church and, without much cere- mony, showed >her three children who were with him and tol6 her that her hus- band had made them motherless by kill ing his wife and that she must be moth CT to them. She heSitated only minute and then agreed to do so, and the same day she returned with him to his native village and took up her abode in his little cottage as housekeeper. They are to be married as soon as Mrs. Malinak, who now uses her maiden name of Marie Miko, can obtain legal release from Mali nak.
 When told the story in the County Jail in Newark to-day Malinak was in no way disturbed.
 Let them marry if they want to. don't want her any more, because she no longer loves me-

 Tn questions local to Kentucky l am always ready to serve her interests 10 the best of my ability, consistent with the obligations Of honesty and fair oeallns. When great public interests, affecting alike every portion of the Union, are to be acted upon, they are to be consloereo re- from the standpoint of the broadest pa- triotisn, and this I propose to do, no matter who may condemn my acton or who may approve it. There are occasions when considerations of local favor and party discipline must, for the time. give way, and If a Senator who acts upon that principle is to be driven from his place by his State Legislature whenever he may contravene local sentiment or temporary passion the dignity of the Senate will soon be a thing of the past.
 "A scrupulous regard for the division of powers between the State and Federal Governments. and the careful observance of the boundary line which separates those powers. is a cardinal doctrine Of JefferSonian Democracy; yet We have here the spectacle of controlling ma jority of a State Legislature boldly overstepping that line of demarcation and, in the name of the Democracy, de- manding that 1 shall surrender my com mission, because, in their estimation, l have ceased to be a Democrat.

Had Been Destined to Follow in the WantOn Footsteps of Her

Special Dispatch to The Call.

Special Dispatch to The Call.
 TACOMA, Feb. 4-The hearing ot the petition for a writ of habeas cor pus, filed by Hon. Jesse Ferguson, tC secure the release of Miss Ida Robin son from the custody of her foster parents, was conducted to-day in the Superior Court at Olympia Neither A. J. Robinson nor his wife put in an ap- pearance, but the girl was subjected to a critical examination on the witness stand to ascertain the justice of the application for her release from the custody of her parents.
 After a full investigation Judge Hodgdcn granted the writ, releasing the girl. and according to her the priv ilege of filing petition for the appoint ment of a guardian of her own selec- tiOn. Meantime she was given into the custody of MT. and Mrs Henry Eckert, prominent residents of Belmore. that her desire to attend school might be gratified.
 The story recited by Miss Robinson upon the witness stand was peculiarly pathetic. She related that her foster parents formerly resided in San Fran cisco and that at that time her foster sister. a daughter of Mrs. Robinson by former husband, was an inmate of a notorious house.
 Ida was sent by her mother to that house to visit her sister, and upon entering she found her sister in the companionship of two men, one of whom was Marshall, whom her par ents tried to compel Ida to marry early this week. Shortly after her entrance her sister and one of the men left the room. leaving her alone with Marshall. She effected her escape, but was taken back to the house by her mother at diff ferent times.
 Later her foster parents moved to Oakland. Her foster sister was wont to visit the family there, being accom- mulatto. who, she said, was not her husband. though she claimed to have been married four times. Miss Robin son said that the notorious sister was now in Seattle, and was destined for Alaska with her parents, and that her mother had told her Qda) that she wanted her to go to Dyea with them, so that she might dance in the dance houses.
 After relating these circumstances, Judge Hodgdon did not hesitate to grant the writ as prayed for. It is thought that the Robinson family has abandoned the fight for the custody of Ida, and that it will leave within a few days for Alaska Marshall is still in jail at Olympia, being unable to give bonds to keep the peace.

OPPOSITION TO
 THE SCHEME Plan to Construct and Maintain a Big Dry
 dock.
Offer of the International Com pany Unfavorably Com
 mented Upon.
Government to Use the Struc- ture IL Will Build.
Special Dispatch to The Cal.

NEW YORK, Feb. 4.-The Herald's ington: Considerable opposition has de velcped to the proposition of the In ternational Drydock and Construction Company of New York to construct and maintain steel floating drydock, to be subsidized by the Government The House Naval Committee has received a letter from the Newport News Ship building and Drydock Company, re- Questing that it hear report of that firm on the subject of drydocks. Inci- dentally that report will inform the committee of the disadvantages which the Newport News Company believes would result from the acceptance of the plan proposed by the New York sym dicate. Those interested in Erie Basin docks have also indicated to the com mittee that they are opposed to the scheme of the International Drydock Company. Attention has been called to the fact that the proposition submitted by the company only permits the use of floating docks for 100 days a year, and also to the fact that the compa- ny's proposition contemplates an ex- penditure of s1.5o0. 900 in the construc- ton of the dock, upon which the de- partment is required to pay $ per cent interest for twenty years, or in all a total of s1,S00,000.
 Suggestions were made to the Navy Department some two months ago by the Newport News Company that it was willing to construct dock of the largest capacity under Government su peryision. beginning the work at once and completing it in a year, providing 1t could be assured of some agreement for its use by the Government. The company has already broken ground for this dock. It will be $50 feet long 100 feet wide and will accommodate the largest vessel in the world
 It is understood that Secretary Ionr is not wholly favorable to the plan of the International Drydock and Con structton Company, and will prohs hlv make an adverse report 10 Congress on the subject. There seems to be a dispo- sition on the part of the subcommittee on appropriations Of the House Naval Committee to comply with some of the departments recommendations in tha matter of authorizing the construction Of additional docks. understani that the subcommittee has agreed to annro- priate Sl.eoO,oo0 for smokeless pow,,sr ana SSs,O00 for the erection of a smoke less powder factory. The sub-commit- tee has also allowed Ss. 300 900 for rs- pairs 10 vessels in commission and an increase or Se9,000 for repairs in ths steam engineering department

DON CARLOS DAUGHTER FREE Princess Elvira Legally Separated From Count
 Philip Folchi. Sequel to Her Elopement From Rome With an Ugly
 Married Man.
Hypnotisrn Was Alleged as the Cause of the Strange Conduct of the
 Pretender's Child.
Copyrighted 1898 by James Gordon Bennett

ROME. Feb. A bill of separation has been granted severing the marital relations of Count Philip Folchi and Princess Elvira, daughter of Don Car los. pretender to the Spanish throne. By the terms of the separation Prlncess Elvira receives 300 francs a month.
 Donna Elvira Bourbon-Anjou, sec- ond daughter of Don Carlos. caused sensation in Europe in the middle or November, 1896, when she eloped from Rome, where she was visiting her sis ter, Princess Massimo. with Count Fol chi, an artist, who was described as being a married man with family. Donna Elvira took with her her jew elry. which was valued at $6e,O0O, ac- cording to current report. Hypnotism was alleged to be the cause of the elopement, Folehi, it was added, being penniless, ugly and crippled. as we'll as a married man. It was at first sup posed the couple were in hiding in Ser lin. but the police of that city failed to find them and expressed the belief that they were somewhere in the south of France.
 The Princess is not beautiful wo- man. but she is alleged to be high strung, of an artless temperament, which caused her to fall an easy victim to Folchi's hypnotic powers.
 About a month after the elopement Donna Elvira is said to have addressed a letter to her father from Barcelona. imploring pardon, and declaring that since his second marriage with the Princess Berthe de Rohan, in 1894. her home life had become intolerable. This letter is described as having been sort e,f answer to a communication which Don Carlos addressed to his followers. in which he informed them that his daughter Elvira was dead to him, ' and asking them to pray for 'her mis- erable soul
 When Don Jaime, son of the pre- tender. heard of his sisters escapade. he obtained a leave of absence, accord ing to report, from a Russian cavalry regiment, the Twenty fourth Regiment of Russian Dragons of Lubny, to which he was attached, and went to the Spanish frontier with the intention of killing Folchi if the latter crossed the frontier into France. The Arch bishop of Barcelona. Stanch support CT of the pretender, realizing the in jury which the affair might do the cause of the legitimists, wrote to Don Carlos and to Don Jaime, imploring them not to commit any act which would cloud their future prospects in Spain, and there matters seem to have rested until the announcement from Rome to-day.
