MRS. M'ALLEN MAY SUE.
Judge Pond Sets Aside Injunction Granted
Divorced Husband.

Judge G. M. Pond yesterday filed an
order setting aside the temporary injunc-
ton issued against Amern McAllen in
Pine county, at the instigation Of her di-
vorced husband, Peter McAllen, to prevent
her from bringing suit against Fred A
and Carrie e. Hodge for the alienation OF
her husbands affections. The defendant
is allowed to proceed with the case.
The complaint shows that, rather than
have the alienation case come to trial, the
plaintiff agreed to pay the defendant sew
eral thousand dollars in consideration OF
her promise to, release the third persons
from the existing causes Of action for the
alienation of his affections. ->E
On the ground that he had broken the
terms of the contract, the defendant failed
to live up to. the agreement and July 21
last, brought Suit against the Hodges.
In dissolving the injunction, Judge Pond
concluded that it is not likely that Nc
Allen would have paid the defendant the
amount involved unless the causes of ac-
tion had been we'll grounded, and his af
fections in fact, alienated from her.

SETTLERS IN A HURRY
the Opening of Red Lake
Reservation.

Would be settlers on the Red Lake In
dian reservation hope to have 1t thrown
open for settlement in advance Of the
million dollar appropriation asked at the
last session of congress.
Major Frank Kratka, of Thief River
Falls, yesterday called on Senators Nelson
and Clapp and Congressman Fletcher and
Stevens. He hoped to secure permission
from the interior department to hold
another council with the Indians in the
hope of securing a modification Of the
treaty. This would permit entries to be
made by prospective settlers in advance
Of the passage Of the bill.
The opening of this reservation Is much
desired, and it is thought that the bill
will certainly pass at the next session
Of congress.

THE FLOUR MARKET

Prices Holding Steady-Business Is Moderate.
Despite another decline this morning in Sep
tember wheat millers did not change prices OH
-four for prompt delivery. For future delivery
based on September there was some business
entered at moderate concessions. Demand Is
only fair. Millers could enter larger orders If
they would shade prices, but are disposed to
refuse business rather than to lower prices
materially.

REMARKS IN GUDEN CASE
Try TELEGRAPH TO The TRIBUNE.


Albany. March 16.-'I removed Mr.. Guden be-
cause believed l was doing right I took such
action only after I convinced that it was
my duty"
This statement was made tonight by Cover
OdelI at the Executive Mansion when the
speech of General Benjamin F. Tracy, counsel
for Mr.. Guden. at the hearing yesterday before
Justice Gaynor. was shown TO him. At that
time General Tracy said that the Governors s
action should be reviewed by the court, and
that if it were not held to be renewable, the
powers of the Governor were as absolute as a
dictator, and that he should be addressed as
His Majesty"
When the Governors attention was specii-
cay called TO the words Dictator" and His
Majesty" however, he declined to discuss them
further than 10 say:
Il do not know what General Tracy meant,
and | do not care"
Governor Odeu declined absolutely 10 make
any comment on the letter that District Attorney
Jerome sent to the Senate and Assembly chair
men of the Excise Committee, to the effect that
the cities of the State because of the inaction
of the legisla tuTe in regard to the present eX-
else law. may yeJ combine to rule the state.
The Governors only reference to the jerome
brief was:
I understand that it was addressed to the
legislature and not TO the Governor
When asked If ne were likely To make the
other appointment 10 the Railroad Commission,
either by TeappOintment of Colonel Ashley W.
Cole, or by the appointment Of his successor,
he said that he did not know whether he would
come TO a decision this week or not. The cur
rent opinion among the leaders of the Repub-
can party in the Legislature is that Colonel Cole
will not be reapponted and that the Governor
is awaiting the acceptance Of new man. The
belief IS still strong that this man VIII be w. l..
Derr superintendent of the New-Iork division
OF the Erie Railroad
Because Of a drizzing rain the Governor re-
mained indoors all day He complained some
Of cough which ne said had not permitted
him to sleep until o'clock this morning. The
cough he said was IN his throat.
