DOLAK WANTS A DIVORCE
His Wife Left Him Without No
tice or Provocation.
WENT TO CALIFORNIA
Mrs. Dolak Alleges That She was Sub
jected to Crue and Inhuman Treat
ment by Her Husband and
He Files Q Cross Bill.

Great Falls, April 25.-In the district
court this afternoon George Dolak in
stituted suit for divorce against his wife
Mary. In his complaint he says that
they were married at Streator, ILL.,, on
Oct. 16, 1887. During the Month of De-
cember. 1896, Notwithstanding the fact
that he had provided a comfortable
home for her at Belt and everything
seemed to be lovely, she quit him with
out notice Inc without provocation.
merely leaving the two older children
with a neighbor and skipped out for
California, where he says she remained
until last September. When she did
return she evinced no love for her off,
spring and husband and did not at
tempt to see either. Wherefore the
plaintiff asks for absolute divorce and
for the children, Mary. aged s years,
and Emma. 5 years.
There Is a sequel to this story, but 1t
happens in this case that the sequel
came first in point of time. Mary
brought suit for divorce on Dec. 20,
1897, and In her complaint she sets up
cruel and inhuman treatment, alleging
that on divers occasions George beat
her. and on n particular occasion en-
ployed a loaded pistol for a weapon.
Her schedule Of children as given by
the complaint Is longer than his, in
GLIDING an infant 5 months old at that
time. She says that at the time she
went to California he drove her out OF
the house by force.
In the answer to that complaint
George alleges that he never used harsh
methods with her, but on the contrary
was always a gentle and loving hus-
band. He says that in September, 1898,
she ran away to Salt Lake City with
one Peter Peondis, and remained there
with him for three weeks, after which
she returned to Belt. Then George for
gave her in the hope that she would
reform. but instead of that she took
another trip with Peter. this one to
California, and that the sole purpose
of her suit for divorce was to obtain
possession of the children that she
might take them to California. where
h man upon whom she Iavished her
love does still live and remain"
On motion of the attorney for the
plaintiff the first suit was dismissed.
and il is evident that George is now
putting the shoe on the other foot.
Brady & Freeman are attorneys for the
plaintiff. --,- -

THE CHANNEL CLEARED.

Landing n Town.
Great Falls. April 25.-Early in March
D.. MaCullum and w. Clarke were en-
gagged by the town of Edmonton to
blast out the rocks in the channel of the
Athabasca river at Grand Rapids. At
that time an ice gorge was so thrown
across the river as to constitute a wing
dam, which turned the water out Of its
usual channel and left the obstructing
rocks high and dry. 1t was thought
advisable to make the channel naviga-
BILE at once and at a comparatively
small expense, and in consequence the
contract was let to the gentlemen
named. They have now returned after
successfully performing their mission.

water the boats can pass without n

great objections to the Mackenzie river
route to Dawson has been removed.
Since the opening of the overland
route to the Klondike. Athabasca and

rush the traveler saw at the Landing
just a warehouse Of the Hudson Bay
company, a saw mill and an English
church, police barracks. a few small
shacks. and the whole surrounded by a

NEEDLESS ANXIETY
 OVER THE HARVARD.
Naval Officers Laugh at the Idea
 That It Cannot Cope With the Terror.

NEW YORK, May 17.-There are as- s,1ra.nces that the War Board has found a. way to get the Harvard out of St Pierre harbor without risk of de- struction by the Spanish torpedo boat destroyer Terror. It involves the use of the Yale and the Montgomery to watch the port at the three-mile limit. to wait until the Harvard appears, and then to be prepared, in case the Terror fol- lows. or any other Spanish torpedo boat destroyers come along, to fall up- on them with their heavy and light rapid-f1re guns and destroy them.
 On the other hand there are naval officers who laugh at the fuss that has ben made over the situation at St. Pierre and declare that there is noth- ing to prevent the Harvard from ieav- ing if she desires to do so, and noth- ing but the assumption that the tor pedo boat destroyer is formidable vessel to lead to the opinion that 1t could destroy the Harvard without difficulty When Captain Cotton has completed the repairs said to be needed by the Harvard, the nature of which has not been communicated to the de- partment. he can leave. and 1t IS be-

cover the further decision referred to in the company's notice. The orders to these two companies were sent, as the channels of communication under their control seem to be, for the mo- ment, the ones through which the Span ish admiral and the Spanish authorities at Madrid and Havana are most likely to secure information as to our naval movements. While 1t was not sus- pected that spies were sending direct information, yet the transmission of press dispatches on naval movements was looked upon as likely to indicate to the Spanish with sufficient certainty the general whereabouts and purposes of our fleets.
 The precautions taken, 1t Is be- Iieved. will restrict this character of cable information to the Government and fleet commanders, and the Span ish authorities from now on will be cut off from all knowledge of our naval and military plans.
 General Greely's telegraphic orders supplement the written orders he had previously given to all cable companies, six in number, having lines from the United States. The written orders have been agreed to in writing by each of the cable companies and now consti- tute an agreement with the Govern
The San Francisco call., 1898-05-18

While having an eye to the future it is the immediate present that the Ma val War Board is thinking of. The information cabled by Consul Smith from Curacao announced that the Spanish fleet had headed westward, but subsequently turned and headed east ward. San Juan is to the northeast of Curacao, and naval experts say that if was the natural thing for Admiral cervera to do-to first steam to the westward out of sight of land and then 10 double on his track like fox, so as to deceive the enemy who might De watching his movements.
 The distance between Curacao and San Juan is about 475 miles. and steaming at the speed of eleven or twelve knots it would have been an easy matter for the Spanish fleet to have covered the distance within forty hours. The enemy's men-of-war were last seen off Curacao at o'clock on Sunday evening.
 The armored cruisers Vizcaya and Infanta Marie Teresa which were in the harbor had received dispatches from Madrid from the Governor Gen eral of Porto Rico and Cuba, and no doubt exists that these dispatches in- formed Admiral Cervera of the oe-

parture of the American fleet from San Juan, en route to Cuba, and of the dis position of the American vessels along the North Atlantic Coast.
 San Juan, therefore. was the natural harbor for the Spanish men-of-war to make, especially as the Porto Rican au- thorities, without doubt, have renewed the fortifications of the harbor and have replaced the guns knocked down by the projectiles fired by the guns of Rear Admiral Sampson's fleet in ad- dition.
 The fact that the Madrid Govern ment has seen fit to announce that there are no men-of-war at San Juan is considered in the nature con- firmation of the Heralds information that the Spanish fleet has arrived at that point.
 It is believed the Spanish fleet will make it's headquarters at San Juan during it's future operations, or at least until re- enforced by the Pelayo and Car los V, which are now on their way from Cadiz. These two vessels, it is ex- pected, will touch at the Canaries to refill their coal bunkers. It Is esti mated that they should reach their des tination within two weeks.

Cablei Lines Ordered to Transmit None But Government
 MeSSageS

WASHINGTON, May H.-Brigadier- General Greedy, chief of the signal ser vice and in charge of all strategic con- trol of telegraph and cable lines. has adopted energetic measures to prevent the admiral of the Spanish squadron now in Caribbean waters from keep ing posted on the whereabouts and movements of United States squadrons and of our prospective naval and mili- tary operations. Last night he tele- graphed to the New York manager of the Haytien Cable Company, forbidding the sending or receipt of any mes sages, except official messages to or from the United States Government, disclosing the movements of our fleets and ships. The manager answered this morning that the inhibition would be strictly observed. If Admiral Samp- son is in Haytian waters, as conjec- tured. then this cable restriction makes it impossible for his movements to be known except to the Government, or if known it is impossible to send out the information except through the Gov ernment
 General Greedy also telegraphed the Anglo American Cable Company this morning recalling it's attention to the prohibition against any messages ini- mical to the interests of the Govern ment and in particular forblddlng the receipt or sending of messages disclos- ing the movements of our ships or pros pective military movements. This lat ter step was taken in view of the mo- tice to the Anglo-American Telegraph Company that pending further decis- ion by the chief signal officer we will accept press messages without restric- tion.''
