The operators have for some time past
been holding cut hope that the strike
would end soon. but they have based
this not on Intervention nor on conees-

they had that many Of the miners were
anxious TO return to work: that many
had returned. and thaf the output OF the

R0ScAMPS MIX BADLY
Husband Says Wife Beat Him
Latter Denies the CON-
plant.

Sensa tionalism, the chief characters
tic Of the divorce proceedings instituted
by Thomas Roscamp, the well known
Park City mining man, against his
wife Henrietta, was yesterday given
another impetus by a second supple
mental complaint. filed by the husband.
in which he asks that the wife be cited
before the court and snow cause why
she should not be punished for con-
tempt. in violating an injunction issued
by Judge Hall July II.
The supplementary complaint alleges
that in accordance with the injunction,
which was issued to restrain the wife
from preventing her husband from re
moving MS personal effects from their
residence. I34 East First South street.
Roscamp last Monday made an effort
to secure some clothing. and papers
from his desk in the house, when the
wife grabbed his cane and violently
beat him over the head. infiicting nu-
merous bruises and cuts.
Not content with this, the complaint
continues, Mrs. Roscamp repeatedly
struck her husband in the face with
clenched fists and threatened to shoot
him if he did not leave the house at
once.
Finally. when the husband did not
depart quickly enough to suit the wife.
ii is alleged, Mrs. Roscamp repeated
her threats, al the same time ousting
the husband, and threatening to break
both his legs if he ventured back
Mrs ROscamp was in an aggravated
state of mind last night at the home on
First South street over what she
termed malicious allegations in the
new supplemental complaint.
1T is all false she said. He cannot
swear truthfully to a single statement
he makes there Last Sunday he came
up here and nearly frightened the life
out of me, but went away without say
ing word. On Monday, about noon,
Mr.. Roseamps came into the house by
the kitchen door and, passing me in
the hall, went upstairs to his old room

around in his desk, and 1 picked up an
ink stand and put it away, with the
remark that it belonged to me.
He then called me thief and a rob-
Der. When he went down stairs. he
stood in the hall swearing at me ter

strike me with his cane 1 was too
