= H-nvN Gale In New York

New York, November 9.-The first
touch Of winter weather came to town
today in a trail Of west wind. which
at IL o'clock this morning was blowing
at the rate of Go miles an hour. 1t made
a sluiceway of lower Broadway and
the narrow down town streets, lifting
off hats and playing a thousand and
one pranks with the unwary pedes-
trians who rounded corners incautious-
ly. At the top Of the sky scrapers
windows ratified and papers blew
around at a lively rate.
AS the day advanced the wind be-
came stronger until along in the after
noon it had reached velocity of ~
miles
Up to 10 o'clock tonight no loss Of
life had been reported in New York
city or Brooklyn, but stories of dam
age to buildings in the cities and sub
urbs were numerous.

FRAUDULENT DIVORCES.


(CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE.)
In Madison's desk was a large collec-
ton of the same nature along with "A
thousand or more specially prepared
blanks of inquiry.
Nearly all of these letters were mark
ed with the amount the client had for
warded, and Messrs. Unger and Cor
don took all papers they could find re-
garding the case of Hopper and Her
rick, on which it is hoped to base the
indictment.
The charges are that the scheme was
operated thus: An advertisement ap-
peared in the papers which read: "Di-
vorces quickly; desertion. non-support.
insanity, separation papers, accident,
breach of promise Consultations free;
confidential. Attorney Madison, 234
Broadway"
1t is said that when a patron answer
ed an advertisement he or she was as
sured that by agreeing to collusion, an
absolute divorce could be obtained. In
the case of a woman she was told that
a correspondent would be produced at
referees hearing who would swear to
statutory violation with the unsuspect-
ing husband. A male witness would
also be produced to clinch the evidence.
When the applicant was a man the
man and woman periurer changed
places, the man swearing to the crimi-
nal act with the defendant and the
woman appearing as servant or seem
stress or ehmbermaid who was con-
veniently about to furnish conclusive
evidence Of the unfaithfulness.

From the Press Until After Election.

Governor.
Governor.

New York. November Sin connec-
ton with the answer Of Mayor VAN
Wyck to the charges against him filed
with Governor Roosevelt regarding his
alleged improper connection with the
American Ice Company. The World
today prints telegram purporting TO
have been sent by B. b. Odell. chair
man of the republican state committee
and nominee of the republican state
convention for governor, to Governor
Roosevelt as follows:
September &c, 1900
Theodore Roosevelt, Governor OF New
York, Cripple Greek, Colo
Wire Attorney General Davis to be
sure not to give out to the reporters
the VanWyck answer at this time. II
must be held until after the election Is
over. This would imperil our chances
and get us into useless wrangle. I
have also wired Davis.
"B. B. ODELL.''
In the letter Of Attorney General
Davis to Governor Roosevelt, dated Oc-
tober Attn. communicating the answer
OF Mayor VanWyck, the attorney gem
eral says:
The mayor by his answer admits
that during his incunbency of the office
ne has been the owner OF shares of
stock in the American Ice Company
He also admits that during the period
in which he was the owner of such
stock the American Ice Company had
contracts with the city for the sale of
ice to various departments of the CITY
and for the leasing OF docks belonging
to the city. In my opinion the owner
or stock in the corporations is inter
ested within the meaning of that word
as Employed in Section 1888 of the
Greater New York charter in a con-
tract between the corporation and the
city
Further on in his letter to the gov
ernOr, the attorney general SAYS:
In order to justify the mayors re-
moval 1 don't believe that it is neces-
sary to establish a case against him
upon which he could be convicted of
crime under the provisions Of Section
1888 above referred to, but 1 do believe
there should have been clear and sat
isfactory evidence Of his moral
! guilt.
! rt is Of the utmost Importance that
| no further proceedings should be taken
| In this matter unless you are satisfied
that the charges can be sustained The
| mayor OF the greatest city in America
should not be humiliated by being
placed upon trial upon charges which
are groundleSS or which cannot be
proven. Under all these circumstances
| and in view of the fact that the charges
are made upon information and belief
and considering the great expense both
to that mayor and the state involved
| in such a trial, / believe that before a
| commissioner is appointed or any fur
ther proceedings taken in this matter
you shoul6 require the petitioners to
place you in possession of evidence
| which, standing alone and undisputed
would justify the removal of the may

Miss Cummings, the soloist of the first
concert:
Battle of the Huns" Miss Cum
mings excelled any soprano we have
had here in years. She has voice of
beautiful quality. clear and sweet, and
her singing was all that could be de-
sired. Her solo number, Handles
DUAL far Faletta," was very finely
rendered and completely captivated the
audience. In response to an encore she
sang Becker's Spring Song" playing
her own accompaniment, and no part
of her solo work was more appreciated
than this light number Her singing in
the Battle Of the Huns" was soulful
and her voice was equally adapted to
the pathetic and dramatic passages.
We hope to hear her again. Daily
