the records showed that the Athertors
had resided in Kentucky, but that the
wife deserted her husband and returned
to her home in New York. The husband
/ brought suit in Kentucky, his lawyer
notifying or attempting to notify Mrs.
Atherton of the action by sending her a
copy of his petition through the mail.
The New York courts held the decree to
be invalid, but the decision was over
ruled.
ONE DIVORCE SUSTAINED.
Justice Gray said:
I'm this case the divorce in Kentucky
was by the court of the state which had
been the undoubted domicile of the hus-
band, and which was the only matri-
monial domicile of the husband and wife.
The single question to be decided is the
validity of that divorce, granted after
such notices had been given as was re
quired by the statutes of Kentucky"
Continuing, the court held that there
had been due compliance with the law,
even though Mrs. Anterior had failed to
receive the letter enclosing a copy of the
petition for divorce. "The question"
said Justice Gray, in that connection,
lis not whether she had actual notice
of the proceedings, but whether such
reasonable steps had been taken to give
her notice as to bind her by the decree
in the state of the domicile. We are of
the opinion that the undisputed facts
show that such efforts were required by
the statutes Of Kentucky, and were ac-
tually made to give the wife actual no.
tice of the suit filed in Kentucky, so as
to make the decree of the court there,
granting divorce upon the ground that
she had abandoned her husband, as
binding as if she had been served with
iYo
appeared i'll the suit. Binding her to
that full extent, it established beyond
contradiction that she had abandoned
her husband and precludes her from as.
sorting that she left him on account of
his cruel treatment
Justice Gray then concludes that as the
proceeding was regular the decree is
\ entitled to as great credit by the courts
of the state of New York as it receives
in Kentucky.

LOOMS Talks 100 MUCH
UNITED STATES MINISTER TO VEN
EZUELA CAN KEEP HIMSELF
BUSY EXPLAINING
QUESTIONABLE WHAT HE SAID
But There Is No Doubt at All That
He Would Have Done Better
to Say Nothing
at All.

NEW YORK, April 1S.-F. B. Loomis
United States minister to Venezuela
seems to be having a hard time with
his nterviewers. A New York special
from San Juan, says that before sailing
from that port, Mr. Loomis paid visit
to the Office Of the San Juan News, where
he met the correspondents of the New
York Herald and the Associated Press
and another correspondent. He talked
''for an hour in the presence of the three,
commenting on President Castro's policy
and the probability of a rebellion within
year. His statements were taken in
shorthand and transcripts were sent to
the New York Herald and the Associated
Press"
On Mr. LOOMS arrival in New York
he denied very circumstantially these
interviews, both to the Associated Press
and the New York Mail and Express,
to the latter saying:
IA reporter from the Associated Press,
who, l am informed, is also editor of the
San Juan News, came aboard the Cara
cas-, just before we came away. I told
him that 1 had nothing to say on the
asphalt question Or of Gen. Castro, or of
anything else of diplomatic character "
Now Mr.. LOOMS issued the following
card:
New York, April III wish to correct
an error that appears in the interview
with me in today's Mail and Express.
l am quoted as saying: "A reporter from
the Associated Press, who, I am inform
ed. is also the editor of the San Juan
News, came aboard, etc.. Now what ]
did say to the Mail and Express reporter
was that a man who represented himself
to be an Associated Press reporter came
on board the gunboat Scorpion at San
Juan, and whom l afterwards learned
was not an Associated Press reporter ]
thought I would tell you this SO that the
error would not be copied and repeated. u

RIP At DAKOTA DIVORCE
SUPREME COURT DECISION RAKES
FLICKERTAIL PRACTICE OVER
THE GOALS
THE TEXT OF THE DECISION
Shows That Even the Scanty Re-
quirements of the State Law
Were Not Lived
Up To.

WASHINGTON April 1S.-The written
opinion of Justice Gray, of the United
States supreme court, on the divorce
cases passed on by the court last Mon
day, became available today, thus afford
ing the first opportunity for inspection
of Justice Gray's language. Of the three
cases decided only one, that of StreitWolf
VS.. Streitwolf, dealt with a Dakota di-
vorce case. In that case the husband,
resident of Brunswick, n. j., had visited
North Dakota for three weeks in May,
1897, and in August Of that year returned
and instituted his suit for divorce three
days after his arrival the second time,
never having mentioned his May visit to
any of his friends or relatives in the
East. The decision in this case aside
from the recital of the history of it, was
very brief, being in the following words:
1.-The law of North Dakota requires a
domicile in good faith of the libelent for
ninety rays as a prerequisite to juriS-
diction OF case of divorce. The facts
in evidence warranted, and indeed re-
quired the finding that the husband had
no bona fide domicile in the state of
North Dakota when he obtained di orCe
there. and it is not pretended that the
WlTe had an independent domicile in
North Dakota, or ever was in that state.
The court of that state, therefore, had no
jurisdiction
The other case, in which an outside
Gecree was negatived, was that of Bell
VS.. Bell, the parties to which resided in
Erie county, New York. The case orig
mated in 1894, and the husband, Freder-
lex Bell, resisted the wifes proceedings
In the supreme court of Erie county for
divorce with a decree of divorce which he
cleaned to have secured from her in a
Pennsylvania court. The wife charged
that this decree was fraudulent, and the
court sustained the charge, holding that
Bell never had resided in Pennsylvania.
sustaining that decree, Justice Gray said:
DECREE INVALID.
The question in this case is of the
husband in Pennsylvania No valid di-
Norce from the bond of matrimony can
De decreed on constructive service by the
courts OF state in which neither party
is domlciled. And by the law of Penn
sylvanla, every petitioner for a divorce
must have had bona fde residence within
the state for one year next before the
ming OF the petition. Therefore the
court in Pennsylvania had no iurisd ction
OF the husbands suit for divorce because
neither party had domicile in Pennsyl-
wanna, and the decree of divorce was en-
titled to no faith and credit in New
York or in any other state"
The only case of the three in which
the court sustained the decree was that
Of Atherton VS. Anterior. In that case

ACREAGE IN COTTON.
Advices to Dun's Indicate That 1t
viii Slightly Exceed Last Year.

NEW YORK, April 18.-Dun's review
of April 20 will say:
Reports from numerous branches and
many correspondents of r.. G. Dun & Co.
in the South indicate that the cold wealth
CT, and that, in most sections, incesSant
rains, have delayed planting for the new
cotton crop. The season is about two
weeks late. Acreage will exceed last
year, but the announcement of some ear
ly orders for fertilizers show that acre
age will not be as large, as the higher
price for cotton prevailing earlier in the
year seemed to Justify. Sales of fertil-
izers have been far in excess of last year,
and there will be a large use of them
everywhere.
In the Atlantic coast states rain has
been very heavy, and in some sections
farm work was wholly suspended. There
is much difficulty in obtaining labor,
hands being fully employed in CONNER
cial and industrial lines at higher wages.
One estimate is made that, on account of
much higher wages for farm hanQs, an
increase in the cost of fertilizers and Of
food products, the cotton crop this year
will cost at least one-eighth more to
raise and gather than last year. Orders
are much the same in every section Of
the South. In the Southwest a consider
able increase of acreage is reported, and
lands put down to winter grain destroy
ed by insects will be replanted in cotton
Western cotton mills are running full
time, but in other sections of the South
there has been considerable curtailment
of production. number Of new mills
are in course of construction, notably in
Tennessee.

RACINE DIVORCE CASE.
Suit That Is Stirring Up the Wis
cOnsin Town.

Suit That Is Stirring Up the Wis
cOnsin Town.
RACINE, Wis, April 1S.-The divorce
suit brought by George Crane against
his wife, based on undue intimacy with
Frank X Bull, one of the WealthiesJ
men in the city, came up for hearing
yesterday before Judge Fish, but was
continued until May s. The hearing will
be behind closed doors, but nevertheless
enough scandal has cropped out to keep
local goSsps busy 1t is said an effort
to effect a settlement will be made, but
that such a result will be attained Is
thought unlikely.
All the persons involved are promi-
nent in Racine society. All were born
and reared in Racine, and until George
Crane began the suit against his wife,
Mabel Barker Crane and accusing Frank
K Bull of undue intimacy with her, no
breath Of scandal ever touched upon the
persons involved. The charges made by
Crane have been the talk of Racine since
the suit was fled, on Feb. % last. The
prediction was made then that the case
would never go to trial. But George
Crane now says he is ready to prove the
charges he makes in his complaint
against his wife. He AYERS also that a
suit for damages will be started soon in
his name with Frank K. Pull as de-
PENDANT.
Bull is president of the Case Threshing
Machine company and one Of the
wealthiest men in the state. He is mar
ried and has two lovely children. His
daughter is attending a female seminary
and his son is at home. The Bulls oc-
cupy the finest mansion in Racine. 1t Is
located on Main street.
George Crane is the leading bicycle
and sporting goods dealer Of Racine.
Mrs Crane is now residing with her par
ents, Mr. and Mrs. William G. Barker,
who have a charming home on College
avenue. She makes sweeping denial OF
the charges filed by her husband.
Frank X. Bull vigorously denies every
thing charged in the complaint. He is
inclined 10 take a charitable view of the
whole matter, preferring to believe THAT
Cranes mind has been poisoned against
him by alleged friends who talk gossip
not founded on facts.
Attorney c. c. Giddings, one of the
prominent Republicans of Wisconsin, is
prosecuting the suit fer Crane. Bulls
attorney is Judge Kearney one of the
most prominent lawyers at the state bar.
AS vet Bull has no interest in the case
to defend, but he has prepared a defense

INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN THE JURY IN
GARRETT RIPLEY CASE.

FRANKFORT, KY, April 1S.-JUdge
CantreI delivered his instructions to the
jury in the case of Capt. Garrett Ripley,
whose trial for alleged completely in the
Goebel shooting has just been concluded.
Judge Cantrell's instructions were prac-
tically the same as those given In the
case of Caleb Powers, and in substance
held that the defendant must be found
guilty if the. charge or conspiring with
Taylor and others to cause GoebePs
death, as alleged, has been proven to
the satisfaction Of the jury, and that if
the jury believes from the evidence, to
the exclusion of a reasonable doubt, that
the defendant and others conspired to
commit an unlawful act and that, in con-
sequence of that act Goebed was MUIR
dered, he is still guilty of murder, though
the killing of Goebel might not have
been the original intention Of the con-
spiracy.
P. w. Major then delivered his closing
argument as counsel for the defense.
Judge B. G. Williams made the argu-
ment for the prosecution this afternoon.
Mr. O'Neill will close for the defense to-
