REPUBLIC SPECIAL
Sioux Falls. S. D.. Nov. 22-The notoriety
which Mrs. Roland B. Mo.ineux of New
York has brought on Sioux Falls by her re-
peated and lengthy interviews in the news
papers about her prospective divorce from
her husband has SO offended the citizens of
this city that she has endangered the sue
cess of her visit.
The better element is peculiarly sensitive
on this point, any way: they have squirmed
before when rich seekers for divorce have
come here and used all possible reserve to
gain their ends, and the cold-blooded an
nouncements of Mrs. Mo.ineux that she had
come merely for six months and for the
sole purpose of obtaining freedom from her
husband is the last straw.
1t is said on good legal authority that her
effrontery in announcing herself as "a New
York society woman" who has come here
Ito gain six months residence for the pur-
pose of getting a divorce" and then to re-
turn to New York. has put a weapon IN the
hands of Molineux. which would prevent her
from getting her freedom if he cares to
contest the action.
Mrs Molineux has apparently made every
effort to keep her name before the public.
She has not only given the local newspaper
men all the interviews they asked for. but
she has even arranged through the pro-
prietor of the Cataract Hotel. where she Is

The result is that the notoriety Of the
whole Molineux scandal has enveloped

has become more than ever stencil in the
nostrils of the decent element.
Not only could Molineux's lawyers use her
own declarations about her sojourn here to
prove that her residence is not u bona-fide
one. but it is possible that the Legislature.
which meets January 6. may take notice OF
the scandal and act in the matter. The
danger of opposition to present conditions
in this regard has never lapsed, and the
MOlineux scandal may be used to revive it
