MRS. MoLINEux DIvoRcEDp
Interesting Story Comes From Sioux
Falls and New York.

Mrs Roland 3. Molineux Is said to have
secured a decree OF divorce from her hus-
band in Dakota and to have returned to
this city. The news came last night from
Sioux Falls. where Mrs. Molineux had lived
more than nine months. that her cottage
there had bsen given up and that the occu-
pant had left for good. 1t was said. too.
that Judge Whiting had granted the decree
a few days before her departure and that
she would wed a rich New York broker
very soon
Judge Whiting sits at Desmet. which u
in an interior county of South Dakota. 1t
was impossible to reach him last night. but
all information obtainable shows that Mrs.
Molineux has obtained her decree and has
outwftted alt VINO tried to get news OF her
suit ...- 81.
It is now declared that when the rumor
went forth last July that her suit had been
denied. testimony In II was being taken at
Castiewood. in Hamlin county. g. d. Mrs.
Molineux owned an automobile 1t became
such a usual thing to see her leave her
cottage unaccompanied that no one thought
OF following her.
She had been In South Dakota six months
on May L. She made no effort then. appa-
rentiy. to begin her suit. 1t was said that
she wished to be sure that the divorce was
legal. and that she intended to walt long
enough to make absolutely certain her legal
residence. On her arrival at the Cataract
House in Sioux Falls last November. a re-
porter sent I'D his card and asked for an
interview.
Mrs. Molineux In reply sent him a note
admitting that she had come to South Da-
kota to obtain divorce This card the re-
porter kept. and 1t was this admission. SO
the story went. that was to be used to pre-
vent her obtaining the decree. To this
cause was attributed her delay to begin the
suit.
Mrs Molineux took her cottage In April
last. 1t was rented and furnished for her
at her request by Alfred Jones. proprietor
Of the Cataract House. so that she could
enjoy more privacy. She bought q plano,
a pony and an automobile.
1t was soon after young Mrs. Molineux
was reunited to her husband after his ac-
quittal on a charge of Staying Mrs kathe-
rine Adams that she left for South Dakota.
For three years. during all the time her
husband was in prison. she had been be-
fore the public. She could not walk In the
streets without being stared at. When the
reunion of husband and wife was followed
so quickly by q separatf ton and the depart
ure Of Mrs. MOlineux for Sioux Falls. inter-
est in the Affairs of the Moltneux family
was again revived.
Roland B. Molineux. so far as known. has
made no defense to his wife's suit. which
is said to have been based on the plea OF
mental anguish suffered during her hus-
bands trial. The South Dakota courts take
cognizance OF mental as well as physical
anguish. and Mrs. Molineux took advantage
OF this.
It was said that General Molineux fur
nished the money for her to go there and
sue for divorce. This was followed by q
story that the Molineuxs family had en-
ployed spies to watch Mrs. Molineux. This
was denied.

TURNING BONDS
INTO MONEY
CHINESE CLAIMANTS GETTING
CASH FOR THEIR PRO RATA on
THE FIRE CLAIM BOND ISSUE.

The Chinese fire claimants are now
getting the portion of the money for
which they received bonds. All fore-
noon there was a string of Chinese at
the paying teller's window of thu Bank
of Hawaii. passing in checks and re-
ceivlng in return bright gold and silve-
money.
The arrangement made between the
Chinese and the bank for the couver-
sion of their pro rata of bonds, is that
the individual claimants shall through
the Chinese committee which has
handled the matter of the Chinese
claims all along assign their interest IN
the bond issue to the bank. In eX-
change for this assignment the indf-
vidual claimant gets check on the
Bank of Hawaii for the amount of his
interest in the bond issue discounted
ten per cent, the rate which the bank
is paying for these fire claim bonds. 1t
is expected that about 100000 of the
fire claims bond issue will come to the
bank through the Chinese fire claim
ants.
Within a few davs Low the greaE
bulk of the Chinese fire claimants will
have received all that is coming to
them from their awards of the Fire
Claims commission. The Special DIS
bursting Agent of the Treasury, w. f.
MacLennan is now paying awards at
the First National bank up to Award
1880 which is about half way through
the list. But as the majority of the
Chinese claimants have been paid the
delays due to difficulties of identifica-
tion have been largely overcome, AMI
it is expected that the remaining $500
or so of awards can be paid more
quickly than those already paid have
been disposed Of

TEARING UP THE
THAMWAYS TRACK
THE OLD RAILS AND TIES ON
THE WAIKIKI ROAD ARE NOW
BEING TAKEN UP.

The Hawaiian Tramways company
began the work of tearing up the old
tramways track on the Waikiki road
on Saturday. A big force of men was
on hand at the corner of King street
and the Waikiki road at o'clock
Saturday morning, and at the stroke
of the clock fell to and the old rusted
rails and the rottlng ties began coming
out of the ground. Good progress was
made Saturday and the work is being
continued today.
This is being done in compliance with
the order issued some time ago by the
superintendent of Public Works, direc-
ting that these rails and ties should
be taken up as an obstruction to the
improvement of the road which will
now go on
1t was claimed that the Tramways
company having abandoned the use of
the track had fl.fa!.ed it's right TO
maintain it there and was under obi
CATION to remove the track.
There seems to have been no con-
troversy on this point between the re-
presentatives of the Tramways com
pany and the Public Works Depart
ment.
