Charles P. Eagen, commissary

stood, to appeal to the president
for a restoration to duty. He was
suspended for six years on Feb. II,

He has called at the White House,
but failed to see the president, who,
it is generally rumored, offered
some time ago to remit the sem
tence Of the court-martial, pro-
vided General Eagen will apply for
retirement. This Eagan refused
to do, it is said. contending that
he is entitled to a return to duty

the age of retirement until Jan.

could cause his retirement without
application when he becomes 62

London. May 29.-2 p. m:-The tenor
of Lord Roberts dispatch of last night
and the. news from Pretoria this morn
ing leads the authorities here to ex-
pect early further important news from
the British commander-in-c dated
they hope, from Johannesburg. ~.
The remarkable rapidity of Lord
Roberts movements and the unwonted
mobility of the whole British army un-
der him have upset the calculations of
the home observers as much as they
appear to have disconcerted and de-
moralized Lord Roberts Federal OPP
ponents. Possibly, now he is at the
gates OF Johannesburg, and Ii is be-
lieved ten days hence or less he ought
to be demanding admittance to the
Transvaal capital itself. If the federals
ever really intended TO "stagger hu-
maDity" by blowing up the gold reef
city and mines which is doubtful. Lord
Roberts may yet be too quick for them
and arrive before they have time TO do
any wrecking. The majority OF the
burghers Will undoubtedly be glad OF
an excuse for saving the mines anu
they may find the excuse in Lord Rob-
erts' skill in husUing them out OF one
position after another.

What will in all probability be
the last Lection Day in Newport is be-
ing celebrated today. with all the GUS
tomary ceremony. and, as usual. the
city is filled with people from the sur
rounding country and the several cit
les of the state. The weather is delight
ful and in consequence, the streets are
thronged. and the booths along the
Mall on Washington square and adja-
cent to the historic old State House are
doing rushing business. while the IA
kris have no lack of patronage.
There is the usual lobby on deck. and
last evening in the corridors of the
Hotel Aquidneck there were several
quiet conferences between those who
are interested in measures, either pro
or con-. that are TO come up at this
session. One thing Is already practical
ly decided and that is that there will
be no adjournment until Friday. as II
has been found to be impossible to
transact the business in time to leave
on Thursday, as many had hoped. At
the Aquidneck last evening, after the
usual caucuses had been held at the
State House. there was a serenade to
Gov Dyer by the Newport band, and
there was 4 large attendance. not only
OF the members of the General Assem-
bly, and state officials but also Of
prominent citizens OF Newport.
The STATS of the retiring and OF the
incoming governors were on hand, the
first in uniform. and the latter with
their gaudy trappngs carefully con-
cealed in their respective rooms until
after the Inauguration. but both STATS
fraternized in the most convivial man
ner, and room No. "a in the hotel was
the very centre of whole -souled hospi-
tality.
At the caucuses. which were held at
o'clock last evening. the usual rou-
tine business was transacted The DEM
ocr-ats did not go into caucus. but the
Republicans OF the Senate met with
Senator Freeman, OF Central Falls, as
chairman. and Secretary of state
Bennett as secretary. and voted 20
place in nomination for clerk OF the
Senate. Hon. Eugene +. Warner, Of
Coventry. The House Republican eau
Gus chose as chairman Col. William II.
Sheffield OF Newport. and as secretary
Frank IT. Easton. OF Providence. IL was
voted to nominate for speaker Hon.
Frank r. Holden, OF woonsocket for
reading clerk. Thomas ZLee, OF Woon-
socket. and for recording clerk. Ray
mond q. Mowry OF Providence.
The later hours OF the evening were
passed very quietly. and there was a
marked absence OF the usual noise so
prevalent I'm and around the hotel cor
ridors. This was largely due 10 the
fact that most OF those who DO the IN
formal celebrating on the night before
Lection had gone 10 the former Ste
vens mansion on Bellevue avenue. now
converted into boarding house. where
unite a number OF the members are
stopping. The guests at the Aquidneck
were the gamers by this change OF base

The hrst contested petition for d.
vorce heard by Judge Rogers in the
appellate division of the supreme. court
today was that of Jesse II. Smith vs..
Mary Il. Smith. There was also heard
a cross petition OF Mrs. Smith. Mr..
Smith accused his wife of adultery and
gross misbehavior repugnant 10 and in
violation of the marriage contract This
conduct was the meeting in public and
walking with a married man against
her husbands commands and the Wis
iting OF houses OF assignation. Mrs.
Smith in her cross bill denies all the
charges made by her husband. whom
she accuses OF continued drunkenness.
OF non-support since the beginning OF
the marriage of having threatened to
kin her and of being guilty Of other
acts of intolerable cruelty.
There was a sensational incident con-
nected with the hearing. Mr.. Smith
had been very slow in answering the
questions OF his counsel and Judge
Rogers had chided the petitioner. FL
nally Mr.. Smith became still slower In
his responses and everyone in the court
was watching him when he suddenly
sank down. II seemed at first as IL he
might be in very bad condition as he
fell In n dangerous spot, the ice tank
being behind him, Some friends and
one OF the codrt officers came 10 his
aid and he slowly recovered.
Mrs Smith filed petition for di-
vorce I'm Washington county. Mr.. Smith
moved TO this city and filed petition
here and II was deemed best TO have
both cases heard here. Ii was very
evident before the trial had proceeded
far that all the witnesses for MIR.
Smith had changed their minds about
certain things very recently.
Mr.. Smith testified he was married
in 1892 and his wife first lived with him
an this city. Then they moved TO Tar
kiln. Life was pleasant until two years
after marriage when Mr.. Smith and
his wife went to Hanover. Conn. There
his wife said she had TO go to attend
her mother who was n, and she was
gone six months. Afterwards Mrs.
Smith and he moved TO the North End
and then to Salina street.
The first trouble OF any account took
place at this time and there was sepa-
ration. 1t was at this point Mr.. Smith
