Mr. Higgins also asks to have set ASIDE 1 iseS

He also wishes note for So WhleH ne gave u
her about a year ago, cancelled.
Colonel Albert f. Lambs, who appeared TOT mrs
Higgins said that the marriage took place IN June
1894 soon after the Ohio divorce was obtained.
The couple lived together until January. lSW Al
that time Mr. Higgins left his wife. and the papers
in the suit for annulment were served on the same
day. The pity OF it all was, said Colonel Lamb,
that If the Ohio divorce was Illegal, then Two
women would be miserable, as sharp as Wen as
Mrs. Higgins had married, both relying on the
validity of the decree.
Justice Marean said that If he had the power he
would grant a counsel fee of $500 and $50 week
alimony, but that under the circumstances he

TARs COMPLAIN OF COST OF TOBACCO

THE GOVERNMENT CHARGES FoRTY-sEvEN
CENTS A POUND.
The tars of the receiving ship Vermont at the
Brooklyn Navy Yard, are complaining about the
price of tobacco. They say that At cents pound
the price which the Government charges them, is
exorbitant. They have complained to the Navy
Yard officials and have pointed out that the men
in the Boston Navy Yard pay only 80 cents
pound and at Philadelphia the price is 81 cents.
Captain Manney, of the Equipment Department,
said TO reporter yesterday that the difference in
the price of tobacco was due to the fact that the
original supply had been exhausted and that more
tobacco to meet the demand had been purchased
at an increased price. Captain Manney said that
after the new schedule goes into effect the price
of tobacco will probably be the same in all the
navy yards on the Atlantic Coast.
