QUIGG NOT TO RESIGN TONIGHT
SOME LEADERS GROWING SUSPICIOUS
ABOUT HIS MISUNDERSTANDING OF
THE COUNTY COMMITTEE

The Republican County Committee will hold
it's regular monthly meeting this evening in the
Murray Hill Lyceum, in East Thirty fourth ST..
but Lemuel E. Quigg is not going to resign
president of the committee Immediately. He
said yesterday:
shall resign at the meeting of the County
Committee tomorrow evening. and. so far
know, there Will be only routine business transact
ed at the meeting.
Some OF the Republican district leaders have
become suspicious OF Mr.. Quiggs sincerity in
announcing his intention to resign the presi-
dency of the County Committee His election
as a National delegate and his selection as a
member of the State Committee have made
some of the district leaders inclined to believe
that Mr.. Qugg would like to back out of his
promise to leave the County Committee. Col
lector Bidwell. who is expected to succeed Mr.
Qugg as president of the County Committee
said yesterday that Mr. Quigg would not give
UP the office until after the meeting of the Re
publican National Convention. Mr. Bidwell ex-
poets to take hold at the beginning of the cam
paign.
Abraham Gruber said yesterday that he would
like TO ask Mr. Quigg at the next meeting Of the
County Committee why he had changed his
mind about resigning the presidency of the COM
mittee. Perhaps Mr.. Gruber will enven the
proceedings Of the meeting this evening by ask
ing some questions.

IS THE EARL A BIGAMIST?
THE NEWS OF HIS MARRIAGE CAUSES sENsA-
TON IN LONDON.

TON IN LONDON.
London. April 1S.-The cabled announcement
I'm the marriage columns of The Times this
morning of the wedding of Earl Russell TO Mollie
Cooke at Reno New. on April 10. has created
a sensation here. as it appears that Earl Rus
SELL according to the English law. is still legally
married TO the first Countess Russell, who IS
now performing at the Tivoli Music Hail. The
Star thinks the announcement. which also APP
peared in this mornings Standard may be a
hoax for 1t says. by marrying another woman
the head of the noble house would render him
self liable to imprisonment for bigamy on his re-
turn to England.
The marital troubles of the Russells began IN
the courts In 1891, when the Countess. who Is
daughter of the we'll known Lady Scott, applied
for separation from her husband on the ground
Of cruelty which was refused. Four years later
the same petition resulted In there being granted
to the defendant nobleman a judicial separation.
But further litigation and cross-petitions fol-
lowed. The litigation was ended by the Court
of Appeal refusing relief to both parties. so they
are still legally married.
THE Westminster Gazette suggests that Earl
Russell may have secretly secured an American
divorce. But 1t is pointed out that this would
not save him from the penalties of the English
law courts.
When Countess Russell was seen this AFTER
noon on the subject she was almost Frustrated
and is arranging to postpone her appearance on
the boards this evening. She was accompanied
by her mother, who was recently imprisoned for
libel All the Countess knew of the affair was
the announcement in the papers. She said:
When 1 saw the news the blow terrible.
II seems such a dreadful addition to all my
troubles 1t is terrible if ii is true that man
can go to another country and get married after
the courts of this country have decided against
him 1t is quite untrue TO say Earl Russell OBJ
tanned a judicial separation. When the House
of Lords heard the case it was decided against
him.
Lady Scott said she and her daughter knew
the Earl had been in America about year, but
they had heard nothing from him. She added:
Lady Russell has placed the matter in the
hands of her solicitor and is not at all inclined
TO resign herself to the acceptance of her noble
husbands family motto, which is: What will
be- will be-"
A close friend of Lord Russell. in confirming
the announcement of the Earls marriage, adds:
For some time Lord Russell felt that his years
of suffering and annoyance had released him
from all obligations, moral or otherwise. con-
nected with his first marriage, and therefore.
that he was free do he desired l do not
believe the question of bigamy will be raised.

are returning to England next month.

one of them said TO a Tribune reporter:
We cannot say that the killing of the sergeant
was not committed by of the strikers but we
feel perfectly assured to say that the deed is de-
plored by the settlement at large. We find fact,
however. that the strike cannot be ended unless
the contractors make the concessions asked for by
the common labcrers. The pay, 81 o. is below the

The troopers reported these facts to General
Roe, and the General, with his staff and a dep

in the afternoon. He advised the strikers to go
back to their old positions and assured them
they would be fully protected against any Of
those who might try to assault or otherwise in

would be carefully guarded. and he impressed
his hearers with the fact that the militia were

Molloy returned to General Roe's headquarters
in the evening, and it proposed to make a
raid upon the Italian village last night and exc
cute the warrants. Mooy held a long confer
ence with few deputies at the headquarters of
Mator-General Roe, and the whole situation of
the strike was thoroughly discussed. including
the advisa bilty of making a descent upon the
Italian village in the hills to the north of the
Croton Valley and capturing the ringleaders of
the strike. From the experience of the after
noon II seen that as long men returning
from work could be intimidated into remaining
home, the backbone of the strike could not
be broken by any amount of militia. Conse-
Quently IL was thought that the arrest and i'm
prisonment of these disturbing factors would
enable those who desired to work peacefully.
The conference however ended in nothing.
When il broke up. at about o'clock the Sheriff
said that he would do nothing last night, and,
riding down to the station, he took a southbound
train.
