MARRIED H61IN
SOON AFTER DIVORCE
The Man in the Case Has just Re-
turned to Indiana From Hri-
zOnd and Mexico

ANDERSON, Ind, Aug. 30.-Jas. A.
Fenstermaker and his divorced wife
Flora, of Alexandria, were remarked
yesterday afternoon and the wedding
was celebrated by burning papers that
certified the divorce.
Her husband had been in Arizona
and Mexico for nearly year, their
letters failed to reach each other, and
Mrs. Fenstermaker says she is now
aware that she made a mistake is lis
tening to gossip that led her to sue for
divorce, which was granted because no
one opposed her.
When Fenstermaker came in un-
expectedly Thursday night he learned
for the first time that he had lost his
wife through the court. They met yes
terday, explanations were satisfactory
and the man hastened to the clerks
Office for marriage license. He was
advised that the cost of Mrs. Fenster-
makers divorce were yet unpaid.
For the divorce costs and marriage
license we must have $780," said dep
uty clerk. 'She lis worth 1t" was Fen.
stermaker's rejoinder. He threw out
$40 bill and got the license.

WASHINGTON D. c., Aug. 3d.
President Roosevelt now has on hand
ready for distribution quite a re-
spectacle quantity of federal patron
age. but a large proportion of it rep
resents places that will not materially
add to the strength of his political
machine. Three of the present and
one of the prospective vacancies are
judicial, and these are supposedly far
removed from close contact with active
party work.
The position of ambassador to Ger
many is the most remunerative vacan-
cy now open. The salary is $17,500 a
year, but the social requirements of
the post are such that none other than
a man of wealth could think of accept
ing it.
Bellamy Storer now minister to
Spain, is the most formidable candidate
for this place. He is an Ohio million
aire. and abundantly able to afford the
luxury He has ceased to be factor
in State politics, and would not add to
the Presidents following.
If George l.. Won Meyer obtains the
Congressional nomination from the
Sixth Massachusetts district, formerly
represented by Congressman Moody
the italian mission will also become
vacant. This post, curious1y enough,
pays only $4,000 year, while all the
other ambassadors receive $17,500. No
explanation is given for this difference
in emoluments. The position is
claimed as belonging to Massachusetts,
and Ex-Governor Wolcott and others of
wealth have been mentioned in that
connection.
Persistent efforts are being made to
force the removal of Ambassador Clay
ton and the Mexican mission may be-
come the prey of some practical poll
tician at any time. Gossip gave the
place to II. Clay Evans, former COM
missioner of pensions, but he was
satisfied with being made consul gem
eral to London. The south will lay
claim to this position when vacant.
The assistant secretarysfip of tha
treasury, now held by General Spauif!-
ing. which pays $4,000 year, win soon
be vacant. Positive information re-
ceived here is that the President has
definitely selected Henry Tichenor, OF
New York, for this office.
There is a vacancy on the board OF
general appraisers at New York, which

is a lifetime position and pays $500 a
year. The name of William D. BY
mum, an ex-representative from Indi-
ana, is mentioned in connection with
this place. He supported Mckinley
as Gold Democrat. Senator Jones, of
Arkansas, has successfully opposed his
confirmation to any place held by
member of his party, on the ground
that Mr.. Bynum is not a Democrat.
It is not known whether this antagon-
ism would extend to a place supposed
to be non-partisan.
Officials consider it lpl ,able that the
|Cubans will keep pey~rg i. away at
General Bragg until 5V,ident is
forced to recall hin% ds a Gold
Democrat from Wis,t ~, and the
place would doubtless-gs be claimed
by that State. 1t is worth $4,000 a

cancy on the court Of claims bench,
which pays $500 year, and is l'ecog-

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 29.-The

"The best locality for stock rails

VERY PLRIh Talk
The Clergyman Has Just Returned
From Europe and Saw Some
Things That Attracted His
Deep AtJentiOn

BOSTON, Mass, Aug 30.-'Morgan
is the best organizer in the world for
the socialists" said Rev. Dr. George G.
Lorimer, pastor of the wealthiest Bap-
tist church in New York, to a reporter
here today.
DR.. Lorimer has just returned from
Europe, and his first question was,
''How's the coal striker" Being told
of J. Pierpont Morgan's refusal to try
to end it he said: THE work of such
men as Morgan and of the big COM
binations is preparing the minds of the
people for socialism. The people see
everything carried on by his combina-
ton, and naturally wonder why the
gov Arnment can not control and man
age these big combinations, just as it
does the postofice. The profits at
present go to the hands of a few.
''It is unnatural to see a man worth
$500, ,O00. 0OO 1t demands an abnor-
NAL condition of affairs. 1t would be
better for the profits Of the large cor
porations to go toward the. lowering Gf
the tax rates.
eff the government took over these
big industries the owners would have
to be paid so that the profits would
still go to few" said the reporter.
"The owners would of course, have
to be paid" said Dr. Lorimer. but in
two or three generations the money
would be scattered by the children. Of
course I do not say that | am in favor
at socialism. I am not, but these mel
like Morgan, who are most opposed TO
socialism. are preparing the way for
rapid spread of the ideas.
"There are a great many people who
think that socialism is all wrong be-
cause advocated by labor men. But
let some able leader take up the idea
and advocate it, and it will spread with
tremendous rapidity.
The speech of Mr.. Roosevelt yester-
day on the subject of trusts was able
But the most important step now In
dealing with the trusts is to lower the
tariff

tage to the large combinations. | rode

India He showed me pair of Amer
lean shoes which he purchased in India
for one-third less than the same shoes
would cost in America. The manu-
facturers are not selling these shoes in
India for philanthropy.
''The first remedy for existing eondf-
tions is the lowering of the tariff"
Lorimer is not only pastor of the
wealthiest Baptist congregation in New
York, but many of the trust nagnates
in Gotham are communicates of the
church over which he presides, and
who will no doubt be surprised to hear
of his strong views.

ON RA6E TRICK
The Betting Is HjSo hedVu and One
Young Man Has Won a Hand
some Fortune During the
Past Ten DAYS

SARATOGA. Aug. 30.-Last mid
night at Saratoga wound UP a day that
witnessed many interesting events, the
breaking of all records in gambling on
the race-track and in the clubs, more
men at play, the biggest crowd of the
season and display of fine froclzs and
more diamonds than are to be seen n
the Jewel collection of the Nizam Of
Hyderabad.
The bookmakers at the race track
handled bales of money and kept most
of it, the big bettors in the Saratoga
Cup race. Joe Ullman, Eddie"
Burke and Sol Lichtenstein handled
something like 100000, and as much
more found it's way through the deft
fingers Of the other bookies.
Ullnan placed some very heavy
wagers yesterday, the biggest being
$4,000 to $4,000 against the Sanford
Cup race.
One of the biggest. winners on this
event was a beardless youngster
named Langley or something like it..
Langley began operations against the
bookmakers three weeks ago with
a very small capital, about $500. He
has won $4,000, and is attracting at
tentfon by adding up the horses that
win selling races,
Langley comes from Kentucky. He
is said to have put the pool-rooms of
Louisville t'out of business year or
two ago, whatever that may mean.
In the clubs last night the ganib-
ling broke the record. There was the
largest crowd ever befoTe seen at Can
fields and the play was high, but it
did not develop any spectacular plung-
ers.
Tammany men who came from New
York appeared to have saved some OF
the money they made during the last
four years and gambled 1t recklessly.
Two men who are known to have re-
ceived annual salaries of $1,000 a year
lost $4,000 and $500 respectively in
an hours play last night
An unusual feature of the gambling
last night was the number of unknown
men who appeared at the roulette
wheels and faro tables and risk I'd
sums that only the nerviest gamblers
are supposed to venture. A young
man whose father is said to have ma lie
a fortune in coal during the last three
months sat in the restaurant over

$4,000 he won.
