larger than that of any hospital in the

surgical appliances, including two big
X-ray machines.

Clusters of movable electric lights
make ii possible to treat patients at
night with perfect tase The chief sur
geon has a telephone and electric bell
service, which connects with every part
Of the vessel.
The relief associations have given
many useful articles and provided DEL
cacies Of all sorts for the sick. The
Daughters of the American Revolution
presented each woman nurse with
dozen white aprons and promised TO
forward all the white uniforms they
could possibly need. The Red Cross
gave supplies for the wounded. and
many things to make the vessel more

A COSTLY DIVORCE.
Establishes Residence in Dakota
and Forfeifs $4,000.

New York, July 3.-Under an agreement that
he should pay his wife s25COO in lieu of al
claims, John Peck, of Hayerstraw, y. Y, las
been granted an absolute divorce, according to
a telegram received by his lawyers yesterday
from Maintain, y. d. This announcement viii re-
call the marital difficulties which led to the
divorce and caused several sensational incidents.
among them a suit for 600 brought against
a wealthy widow by Mrs. Peck.
Seek is a member OF the firm of Peck Bros,
brickmakers of Haverstraw, and manager of the
wealthy Scott estate Though he was believed
until few years ago 10 be single man, ltiga-
tion over some property disclosed the fact that
in October, 1863 he had married Elizabeth Gar
diner, then employed as a seamstress in his
fathers family, in Rutherford, n. J. -Four chill
dren had BEEN born to them, vet they had not
lived openly together during nearly twenty-five
years, and the marriage a weil-kept secret.
Haverstraw was astounded in April, 1897, by
the news that Mrs. Peck had brought suit against
Mrs Carrie c.. Scott, widow of a member of
the firm of Scott, Bennett & Rowan She charged
that Mrs. Scott had alienated her husbands af-
fections and demanded $4,000 damages. Mrs.
Scott had appointed Peck her agent in the es-
brought them much together. Public sympathy,
tate and their business relations necess arily
however. seemed to be with Mrs Scott who
was a most estimabe woman. She WAS pr, $
trated by the notoriety resulting from the suit
but protested that the charges utterly un-
founded
1t became known meanwhile that Peck had
previously served his wife with papers in a suit
for absolute divorce on the Ground OF ahan-
donment. The against Mrs. Scott was never
tried, and the interest subsidized, until September,
1897, when Peck arrested his wife's
charge of abandonment. This case did not reach
the trial stage.
Peck established a legal residence in North
Dakota and pushed his suit. Testimony was
taken before a referee, and the abandonment
charge against his wife sustained, de
spite her general denial. Then negotiations were
opened between the opposing counsel and il was
agreed that Peck should pay his wife s2j.00J
in consideration OF which she would not oppose
the suit further.
Hoggatt & Caruthers, of No. 256 Broadway,
received dispatch yesterday stating that Judge
Winchester had granted the decree.
There are four children. Louise the eldest,
is married, and lives in Connecticut The
Others are Maud. Elizabeth and John, the boy,
the youngest being eighteen years old.
In Peek's complaint it was stated that Mrs.
Peck had lived for several years in Ruthersford
\. j., under the name of Mrs John Peters.
