The law, section 1882 of the Civil
Laws, provides that all summons must
be served at least twenty days before
the term specified by the complaint,
but provides further "The Court shall
not entertain jurisdiction of the libel
Complaint for divorce) unless by the
consent of the respondent, unless such
personal service shall have been com.
pleted more than twenty days before
the first day of the term to which the
same shall be eturnable"-which in
this case was Monday, February 2nd.
the day of the trial and divorce. Our
divorce statutes, section 1886 of the
Civil Laws, says:
"If there be any reason to suspect
collusion, or that important testimony
can be procured which has not been
produced, it shall be the duty of the
Court to continue the case till the
next term, and so from term to term,
which such reason for suspicion con.
tinues. And the Attorney General and
parties not of record shall be heard, to
establish the fact of collusion or the
existence of testimony not produced"
Again the law, by section 1884, pro.
es:-"Upon the hearing of every Ii
bel for divorce the Court shall require
exact legal proof upon every point not
withstanding the consent of parties;
yet the Court allowed the testimony Of
one of the witnesses in confederation
of plaintiff to be read by deposition
when that witness was within the jur.
iadiction of the Court and, according
TO law, should have been personally
present to testify in Court.
The defendant made no defense, pro
duced no witnesses in her behalf, and
only a make-believe cross-examination
of plaintiffs witnesses occurred before
the learned Judge who, to the Adver
tisers croaker, SO Immediately covers
up the spots upon the bench left by
the learned jurist and gentleman who
preceded him. Enough for the pres
ent; but we will have more to say lat

On the afternoon of Thursday, Jan
uary 29th last, E. p. Dole, then Attor
hey General, filed his suit against his
wife, Eleanor Dole, and on the same
afternoon, at 8: 40 o'clock, the sum-
mons was issued from the clerks office
CT the Circuit Court and served on Mrs.
Dole that same day. Mrs. Dole signed
q paper on Saturday. the 31st. discon-
tinuing her suit for separation against
Dole and on the same day her lawyers
filed an answer for her denying all the
main charges of the plaintiff; and also
on the 31st, the lawyers for both par
ties signed an agreement that the
case should be tried ON Monday, the
End day of February, yesterday, while
in the meantime Mrs. Dole quietly, no
ticeably SO, slipped away ON the China
on Saturday last evidently to prevent
her being present in court at the time
OF the socalled hearing. There are no
charges in Dole's complaint against
his wife that she used personal yio-
lence upon him, nor does he claim that
she threatened him with bodily harm,
the cruelty being merely in mental suf-
fering, and in the whole of the evil

FINANCIAL GOSSIP

CHARLES E. Lewis, from New York: A sag
glng market is favored by the general apathy
Which will be taken advantage Of by the bears.
There seems to be no particular absorption, the
large interests apparently preferring to allow in
vestment absorption to take its course. They
are likely to check any unsettling bear attacks.
There are strong combinations at work endeavor-
ing to depress it. Many operators have left the
city for vacations and period Of dizziness and
inactivity VIII be experienced unless something
occurs to promote activity. There is nothing to
justify either a bull or bear campaign now.
Waldorf stock gossip to Watson: As might
be expected, speculative sentiment is dampened
6y the absolute stagnation at stock exchange
Commission houses report little disposition on the
part OF clients either to buy or sell and the
important financial interests of the street con
tlnue to hold aloof. These conditions make
situation which leaves the market open to the
tactics OF professional traders. and as the ma
jority Of the latter are bearish there is per
sistent hammering of prices and forced liquida
ton. These attempts do not meet with much
success and barring bad news they are not ex
pected to do So. Long stocks are not pressed
for sale in quantity, The short interest is large
and is increasing, prices are far below the leve
OF a year ago and the conservative feeling Is thai
good stocks are cheap,
