TO ANNUH MARRIAGE.
Peculiar Case of Princess ROspigliDsi,
Nee Marie Jennings Reid.
(By the Associated Press


Rome, March I'll Cardinal Gotti
perfect of the Propaganda, has in
structed Cardinal Martinelli to rei@rt
on the case presented by Princess Ro-
spigIiosi, formerly Marie Jennings
Reid, of New Orleans, for the annul-
ment of her first marriage with Colo
mel Fred Fl. Parkhurst, of Bangor, Me-,
The case will soon be discussed be-
fore the congregation of propaganda
It is generally believed by ecclesias-
tical authorities that annulment Will
be granted, as, even admitting that
the Barkhurst-Re marriage was
celebrated with a dispensation, which
considered him a protestant. the mar
riage is null and void, it being now
established, that Colonel Parkhurst
never was baptized.
The Princess Rospigliosi, who is a
Catholic was divorced in 1898 from
Colonel Parkhurst,, y.A3 was a pro-
4estant and in 1901 was married in
Rome to Prince Rospigliosi head of
an ancient family of clerical nobil-
ity and brother of the comandant of
the Papal Noble Guard. The ceremo-
ny was civil one, and from the first
thine Catholic Church refused to rec
ognize the marriage.
When the Prince first APPLIED to the
congregation of the propaganda for
recognition of his wife's divorce in the
United States the church declined to
recognize it, but Mgr Chappelle, who
married Mrs. Parkhurst to her first
husband, since testified before the con-
gregation that the first marriage was
irregular according to the laws of the
church,.

BEEF TRUST INVESTIGATION.
Work of Grand Jury Begins Today
Secret Service Nen to Guard
Witnesses.
tBy the Associated press J

Chicago, March 21.-Fifteen secret
service men have been brought to
Chicago to guard witnesses who will
testify before the special grand jury
which tomorrow will begin investi-
eating the so-called "beef trust" So
great is the desire of the Federal Off
Gals to maintain a strict secrecy in
the investigation, that every witness
who testifies before the inquisitorial
body will be closely guarded by one of
the detectives, the purpose being to
prevent the witnesses being, approach
ed by newspaper men or agents of
the packers q. b. Morrison, who was
today appointed United States District
Attorney vice S. II. Bethea, recently
promoted to be district Judge, de-
clared tonight that a person speaking
to any of the witnesses will be liable
to be held in contempt of court. even
if the speaking should go no further
than inquiring the name of the Wit
ness.
Twenty men have qualified as grand
jurors. Tomorrow others will report
to be questioned concerning their
qualifications 1t is hoped by the
Federal officials that the Its of jury
men will be completed tomorrow. The
work of investigation will then imme-
diately begin.
