NO TROUBLE EXISTS.
Secretary Zimmerman Denies That
Dissatisfaction Prevails at Zoar
Over Property Division.

Louis Zimmerman, formerly secretay
of the Zoar society, was in the city yester-
day, says the Independent, and in an
interview stated that there is absolutely
no truth in the reports circulated to the
effect that n embers of the socifty were
displeased with the divisioan of property
and were at logerheads with those in
charge. The Zoarites are greatly amazed
by the publication of articles of this kind,
and 1t is thought that 1t is done fo- some
purpose, probably to create trouble in
their ranks. "The fact is, said Mr..
Zimmerman, "no division of the land or
other property has yet been made. The
surveyors are now engaged and until
their work is completed no sllotments
can be made. In the meantime our peo-
pie are working as usual and perfect
harmony reigns."

DAN HANNA
Is Now Free TO Act in Such Scanda.
lous Manner as Seems to
Best Suit Him,

Best Suit Him.
Cleveland, June e0.-(Speoial. Mrs.
Dan Hanna got divorce from her hus-
band on Saturday on the grounds of
cruelty and neglect. The hearing did
not disclose all the brutality in the case,
as Father Mark had engaged In the fight
against the splendid little woman who
had made the one serious mistake in
marrying the brutal son of his father,
with the attendant heredity. The testi-
mony was very quietly given and Hanna
made no defense. Mark had arranged
all that, and to save the facts coming out
had agreed to the alimony demanded by
Mrs. Hanna's attorneys. 1t was purely q
matter of money, and as Dan does not
seem capable Of being true to O good
woman, the price Of relieving him Of
any domestic restraints was considered to
be very reasonable. The evidence showed
that Dan Hanna had been in the habit of
abusing his wife and that he had beaten
her severely on at least one occasion. The
cause for the beating did not come out in
the evidence, but 1t is well understood In
Cleveland By the Euclid avenue set.
Dan attended the Inauguration OF Presi-
dent Mckinley and was accompanied by
member Of the Euclid avenue set that
had fallen from grace. This woman
spent the week in Washington with
young Hanna and she was with him at
the inaugural ball. Decent people who
do not favor such actions, even with the
son of q president maker, got word to
Mrs. Hanna, and when Dan returned
home after his weeks debauch with an
other woman, his wife told him he should
have some respect for his children If he
had not for his wife, whereupon he
knocked her down and beat her shame
fully. After that her relatives would not
permit her to live with him, and Dan is
now free to spend his time with the style
of emales that seems to suit him.
