Poverty No Ground For Divorce

Poverty No Ground For Divorce.
st. Louis, Oct. SIN the court Of
appeals yesterday Judge Bland set
aside the divorce obtained recently az
Springfield, Mo-, by Mrs. Isabella
Campbell from her husband, William
c. Campbell. Mrs. Campbell sued her
husband for divorce on the grounds of
desertion and general indignities, and
was granted a decree, with the custody
of the two children. Judge Bland de-
cides that the divorce was an inJus-
tice to Mr.. Campbell lie said the
evidence went to show that Campbell
was a poor man, working for wages,
while his wife had $4,000 in property
and fixed income of $50 a month be-
sides. The husbands only offense was
his poverty. Judge Bland said there
was no law in Missouri which made
poverty a ground for divorce.

Hamilton county, who claims to have
been offered a bribe to vote for Senator
Hanna, and Thomas Q. Campbell, at
tOrney, who acted as the legal represen-
tative of Otis. There was nothing in
the testimony of either witness to even
indicate that Senator Hanna, Major
Dick or Major Rathbone had any con
nectiOn with General BOyce, through
whom it is claimed the alleged negotia-
tfOnS were conducted. In fact. Attor-
ney Campbell. who came all the way
from New York to testify, took occasion
to say he did not believe Senator Han
was interested in or knew Boyce-
Moreover, Boyce himself had declared
to Campbell that he did not know Mr.
Hanna and that if his personal wishes
were consulted he would prefer to see
him defeated. Campbell produced a
roll of bills in denominations of 500 and
$50, 2gSreSa1ng 81, 75O which he claim
ed Boyce had paid to him during the
negotiations. Campbell said if BOyce
returned to Hamilton county, he would
be glad to return the money, otherwise
he would use part of it in pushing a
suit for damages against a Columbus
paper.
Representative Otis testified that he
had met Henry Harrison BOyce in Gin
cinnati first on the evening of January
Z, last. About II o'clock on the morn
ing of that day, Friday, he received a
long distance telephone message from
Columbus, who said he was General
BOyce, that he had come on from New
York, and wished to see him on import
ant business. Mr.. Otis told him that If
he would come to Cincinnati he could
see him. Between and o'clock Otis
went to the Gibson House and to
Boyce's room, No. 226 He met Boyce
and the latter said to him that though
he was a stranger to Otis, he wished to
see him on very important business:
that he represented J. PierpOnt Nor
gan, of New York; that Mr. Morgan
had great interests in Ohio which he
desired to have looked after and that
he was also a friend Of Mr.. c. c. Shane
of New York.

DAVIS FUSION SCHEME.
Would Make Division of Spoils After
the Election.

J. A. Davis of this city has a fusion
scheme which is interesting the silver
Republicans and the Democrats in no
small degree.
Mr.. Davis suggests that the silver
Republicans meet in the state cOnven-
tiOn on the same day the Populists
hold their convention, and endorse the
POpulist state ticket, with the under
standing that the ticket goes on the
official ballot under the head free sill
yer Republican"
Mr. Davis also suggests a similar
plan to the Democrats. He explains
his scheme by saying;
This method when the returns are
all in, will show exactly how many
votes each party casts for the fusion
ticket. I can conceive no other arrange
ment which would bring such a re-
suit"
This much being accomplished. Mr..
Mr.. Davis wants the POpulists to con-
cede to the Democrats and silverites,
the state patronage according to the
percentage of the total vote cast by
the three parties.
The silver Republicans claim the
credit Of electing the present state Of
ficers. but they control only 4 per cent
