MRS. MOLINRUX IS BACK.
NO DOUBT OF HER PRESENCE IN NEW FORK. @
Is Armed with Divoros Giving Her Power to Resume Her Maiden Name of Blanche chessberough = Lawyers Hold Conference to Arrange Certain FinancinI ma.ter. Made Necessary by she Divorce.
the Divorce.

New York, Sept. 3.--Mrs. Roland B. Molineux, who went to South Dakota about nine months ago for the an nouneed purpose of obtaining divorce from her husband, arrived in the city this week with the necessary papers which will allow her to resume her maiden name of Blanche Chesebrough. Mrs Molineux is now at a hotel here. She came home on Tuesday and almost immediately went to the law offices of Black, Olcott. Gruber & Bonynge.. When seen to-day, Judge Olcott, who is her counsel here, would not discuss the matter at all He said that he would neither affirm nor deny any of
 the statements that had been made as to Mrs. Molineux, her divorce or her whereabouts. Weeks, Battle & Mar
 shall, counsel for Roland B. Molineux, were equally reticent.
 It can be positively stated, however, that Mrs. Molineux is here, and that she
 did see her counsel It is further claiin- ed that while she was with her lawyer Rolaid B. Molineux was with his attor- neys in their office in the same building,
 and that later there was a conference
 between the lawyers in regard to some financial details made necessary by the divorce.
 | Molineux and Blanche Chesebrough lwere married on November 29, 1898.
 After he was declared innocent of the
 Adams murder a coolness sprang up be-
 tween him and Mrs. Molineux, who went to Sioux Falls, s. D., last Novem-
 Der. She announced that she had gone there to obtain a divorce. In July last
 testimony was taken before referee
 at Castlewood. Hanlin county, and a little over a week ago the decree was
 signed by Judge Whiting of Desmet.
 All the papers in the case were stalled,
 and the grounds on which the divorce
 was granted were kept secret.
