An examination OF the insurance
laws Of Mississippi has resulted in the
somewhat startling discovery that
suit cannot he brought in the courts OF
the State against an insurance com
pany which has no local representa-.
tive. The situation is peculiarly un-
fortunate, in view OF the present
license system, under which the fee
for doing business In the State is being
gradually increased from year to year,
and a large number Of companies in
the life business have entered, paid
the minimum fee, thoroughly worked
field and then retired because of the
increased license. Parties having
grievances against these concerns are
now compelled to bring SUIT at the
place OF their donIicile, and cannot
obtain recourse through the State
courts, thus placing them practically
at the mercy of the corporations. T

London, March 28-The Countess Rus

ground Of the alleged bigarny and aaul-
terry of the Earl of Russell with Mrs.
Somervine. Inc suit was not defended.
John Francis Stanley, Earl Russell, was
married to Moufe SomerviIle, daughter Of
the late George Cook of CombernaI, Scot
land, on April Is, 4vyo, in Reno, New. They
had been living Tor several months pre-
vious in Nevada where both had obtained
DEGREES of divorce. Earl Russell obtained
a divorce from Countess Russell on the
ground Of desertion. lie alleged that she
had left him nearly ten years ago. She
was Miss Edith Mabel Scott youngest
daughter of the late Sir Claude Edward
Scott. The domestic trouble of the earl
and his wife first came to notice in 1891
when Countess Russell brought suit for a
divorce, based on cruelty and other
charges. Countess Russells suit failed,
and the judge took the unusual course of
requiring her to pay its cost. amounting
to more Ian $4,000. As a result of that
suit the earl obtained a judicial separa-
ton. Countess Russell, in April, 1895,
successfully sued for a restoration Of her

OKLAHOMA
Jenkins Chances Growing

M'NEAL STILL HOPEFUL
Of Securing the Endorsement

M'NEAL STILL HOPEFUL

Guthrie. o. T., March 2s-The politicians
are just as much at sea as ever regarding
the governorship appointment. Recent
dispatches from Washington caused a
slight furry in political circles, but since
nothing was made pubic regarding the
appointment has gone back TO its old con-
dition.
Nothing has been received from any
source which would Indicate that any
thing had been decided regarding the ap-
pointment. The friends of Dennis Flynn
state that they think the matter viii not
be settled until he returns to Washington
and a report is received by President Nc
Kinley from him. Mr. Flynn viii not re-
turn for some little time, and if this pro-
phecy is realized the matter is not any
way near settled. The territorial oreani-
zation is in the same position that it has
been. Unless McNeaI does some mighty
active work, Jenkins viii be the man en-
dorsed for governor. In fact the West
Side men are for him, and such being
the case il is wondered just where Nc
Neal viii land McNea1 claims to have
the support of Flynn and the members Of
the territorial organization claim that
Flynn win or should be guided by their
wishes. If by a fight on this question the
territorial organization should become di-
vided. this would mean that Barnes
would have a better chance than ever in
succeeding in being reappointed. In the
opinion Of some Of the men. there are fac
tions enough now IN Oklahoma politics
and they wish to avoid THIS as much as
possible. The whole matter thus FAR has
been Barnes and anti-Barnes, and with
another split in political matters IN the
anti-Barnes faction it would not help but
be very beneficial to Barnes.
The supporters Of Governor Barnes are
stiIl very continent tat their man win be
successful. They have received kilograms
from their leader at Washington which
have kept up their courage, although
nothing definite has been announced by
him. The newspaper reports that Hitch
cock had endorsed McNeal caused many
comments, but the Barnes men insist that
the banker viii be unable 10 land even
with that endorsement. McNeal himself
does not know any more than any one
else in Guthrie, and IL he is to be APP
pointed soon It win be o surprise TO him
as he does not think that the announce
ment viii be made until about the first Of
May.

Asked If the announcement were true
what effect he thought it would have on

phaucally: None. except the loss Of a

When Agoncfio was asked what effect
the capture Of Aguinaldo would have on
the campaign, he said a council OF the
leading Fflipinos would simply meet and
elect another military chief TO prosecute
the war. adding that even Aguinaldo and
his general stan were all captured, many
able generals remain.
Agoncrlo was asked who was likely TO
be chosen to succeed Ag0inaldo. and said
he thought General Alejandrino might be
selected. as he was clever military
leader. and enjoyed the confidence OF the
people. In reply to a question as 10
whether the Fnipinos have enough
money to continue the war indefinitely.
Agonclno smiled and replied: '-That is
