admitted she had a part of the good
food at her husbands home, but then
limited her admission TO the times
when he was agreeable, which she stat
ed were few. The trouble which cui-
minated in the filing OF the petition for
divorce began last October, Mrs. Rie-
void said, though she did not leave her
husbands home until three weeks ago.
Continuing to show her dislike TO her
husband she said in answer to ques-
tion that though she had been sick for
1S years she had not had a doctor con-
stantly because her husband had told
her not TO spend all his money for doc
tors bills.
Mr.. stone. of Stone & Lovejoy who
represented MIR. Riewold. said he would
state to the court question he wished
to put to the witness. The question
was as to whether or not she had am
other husband living when she married
his client.
Judge Douglas asked If that was per-
tinent to the present hearing. Mr.. stone
said that IL might be possible the VIII
ness would say she had, and then no
allowance could be obtained, nor could
a guilty party In such case get Ill

MORALES DEAD.

His vaulting Ambition to be President
Of Guatemala.
Washington. Aug. 20.-The tragic
death of General Morales which was re.
ported Friday by Consul Hunter ol
Guatemala. Is but the last Of the series
of stirring events which have occurred
In Guatemala within the last two weeks.
Morales gathered together q good -sized
band along the Mexican border and
appeared at the large town OF Ocas.
Here he inaugurated a reign of terror,
He seized many thousand bags Of coffee
and used them In building breastworks
for his revolutionary band. Sorties
were made along the harbor front. and
launches and other craft were burned
and destroyed. One or the most au-
dacious acts was the laying tribute upon
the United States consul and other con-
sular officers there In the sum of $500.
The condition of affairs was reported
to the state department from time ia
time, and efforts were made, In con-
junction with the Mexican authorities.
to put an end to the depredations. There
was some delay. however, owing to tho
death of the Mexican minister's wife
and his consequent absence from Wash
ington. Ordinarily the United states
Is represented In Guatemalan waters
by a warship. but owing to the war
with Spain all our ships have been re-
quired elsewhere. 1t is for this reason
probably that the foreign representa-
tives, including those Of the United
States, united in asking the aid OF the
British naval commander at Ocas. This
has proved effective, as the revolutionis
ended with the capture and death Of
Morales. while on his way to Jail.
Prospero Morales was a conspicuous
figure In Central American affairs dur
ing the last three years. He was min
lister OF war I'm the cabinet Of President
Barrios, and II is said he used the war
office to ferment the rebellion against
Barrios. The latter detected the plot.
and Morales fed to Mexico. where he
organized his band. In the meantime
Barrios was assassinated. being sue
ceeded by President Cebrera. 1t was
thought that the death Of Barrios would
ultimately lead to the success OF Nor.
ales' revolutionary movement.
Among South American officials here
II Is said that Morales death will re-
store a calm to Central American affairs
which has not existed for many months,
even years. Morales was about 45 years
OF age. man OF education and OF
marked force of character

JOBS IN POSTAL SERVICE
EVIDENCE OF THE END OF WAR.

washington, Aug 2o.--The postoffice
department is experiencing much trouble
from the numerous applications being
received from persons In all parts OF the
country for appointments in the mail
service Of our new possessions--for posi-
tions as postmasters and TO fill other
places in Cuba, Porto Rico and the
Philippines. The department cannot
make such appointments, and the thou
sand OF more applications received Will
not benefit the senders in any way.
"A report has become current" said
an assistant yesterday. that the de-
partment had advertised for clerks in
the mail service to points captured by
our. forces. There Is no foundation for
this statement, and there is available
for this work larger number of men
than can be employed in this way. Every
one chosen for such employment has
been and will be taken from the force
already In the service.
Another evidence that war Is at an end
is the fact that the postmaster general
suspended his order issued at the be-
ginning of the war that during hostile
ties all mail communication with Spain
and her colonies was to be discontinued.
The action Is in conformity with the
proclamation OF the president announc-
ing the suspension of hostilities. Ac-
cording TO the terms Of this last order
letters and other mailable matter ad-
dressed TO persons connected with the
United States forces in the Philippines
Cuba and Porto Rico shall continue to be
subject to United States domestic post
age rates. Other mail addressed to these
places shall be subject to the postags
