MOTION AGAINST BURBANK.
The Leavenworth Lieutenant VIII Be
Tried in October

Leavenworth, May S0.-The suit of
First Lieutenant Sidney S. Burbank
for annuIlment of an alleged marriage
by a Filipino woman was brought up
in the district court. The attorneys for
Mrs. Conception Vasquez moved to dis
miss it from the docket on the allega-
ton that the army officer was not
citizen. Arguments were made and
quotations from court documents sub
mitted with a view of showing that
Lieutenant Burbank was not a resi-
dent of IeaYenwOrth county or the
state of Kansas previous to his joining
the army and that he could not acquire
citizenship while on duty on the fort
reservation as an army officer. The mo-
ton to dismiss was overruled, and the
case was set for trial with other di-
vOrce suits for the October term of
court.
Lieutenant Burbank is the son of
regular army officer and was born at
an army post in Texas. 1t is alleged
that he can claim citizenship here for
the right to appear in a civil court if
he so desires. Dispositions will be Ia
ken in this case at the home of Mrs.
Vasquez in the Philippines in June.

 For the first time in my recollec- ton a Democrat has seen 1t to attack a President. have stood the abuse heaped upon by head. but when I find men parading as trust busters when the contrarl wis the truth, I feel that it is not honest and Is only being done to get our votes,
 T said Judge Parker had been con- nected with trusts. I kno wit. I know that Judge Parker had $2o,o0o of ship building stock and the reason I know 1t Ia because he came to me and asked me to let him have 1t. I know becauise I instructed my agent to give 1t to him and he paid for it.
 T can produce the documentary proof in few hours by going to New burg. where it .is.,
 T know he had stock in the steel trust and will furnish the proof and do it in fifteen minutes after I get to Newbnrgh. A man who is attacking the trusts. ought to come into court with clean hands. Roosevelt on the contrary has beens pulling down trusts. Honesty always wins and Roosevelt has one hundred per cent of honesty in his makeup.
 Judge Parker has gone about the last few days assailing the Republican candidate for President. I have stood silent when abused personally, but when he impugns the honesty and in- tegrity of Theodore Roosevelt 1t is time for every decent man to rise up and resent anything that may be said to the detriment of the great and courage ous man who fills the Presidential chair today"
