WANTS A DIVORCE
AFTER SEVENTY YEARS

Judge KEENAN, was kept busy this
morning listening to the troubles of
those who believe that marriage is a
failure.
John p. Adams, who has reached
nearly the prescribed three-score- and
ten mentioned in holy writ asked the
court to sever the bonds which have
made him and Julia A. Adams one
since February, 1861. The old couple
have wandered about in many places
between Illinois and this state and
the aged husband has now made the
discovery that his spouse A years
is cross and ill-tempered. The old
man seems particularly displeased
because his poor old wife will not GO
with him to live in a shack on a
homestead he desires to locate upon
He says she is cruel and threatens
to go to Michigan.
Judge KEENAN, refused to unite this
knot.

or differentfal Of 10 cents.
It Is the differential in the COM
modify rate which gives the Spokane
wholesale grocer a chance to compete
with his coast competitor. Buying
in carload lots he saves the difference
between the carload and less than
carload rate to Spokane, while the
Portland and Seattle jobber, shipping
: In less than carloads to customers in
Spokane territory, must pay the
higher rate.
The differential existing in the
class rate in may cases is not suf-
ficient as between carloads and less
than carloads to margin a profit.
A railroad commission tinkering
with these commodity rates need not
go outside of it's legal rights to re-
adjust these rates and destroy or
modify the commodity differential
and restore, to degree, the class
differential, which would give the full
advantage to the coast grocer.
1t is danger that need not be
guessed at.

MURDER
TRIAL IS ON TODAY

The trial Of Henry Arao, the Jap
who is accused of brutally murder
ing Sam Chow. Chinese tailor, De-
cember 80, at the store of the latter
on Main avenue, began this morning
in Judge Warren's court.
All the forenoon session was con-
sumed in examining the Jurors sum-
moned to try the case.
All of the Jurors examined had read
accounts of the killing as published
in the newspapers and many of them
had formed opinions which they ad-
mitted could only be removed by
testimony. All who had such opin-
ions were promptly challenged by the
Jap's lawyers and were excused by
the court.
Ex-Judge Matthews and @. b.
Groff are defending the Jap and are
making a hard fight for their client.
They take an exception to every ad-
verse ruling of the court.
Every juror presented is question
ed by the accuseds counsel whether

DIP. SELLERS FIGHTING
81. TO SEE HIS CHILDREN

The motion recently made by DR..
NJ +. Settlers for leave to visit his
children, who are under the care and
in the custody of his divorced wife.
came up for argument before Judge
KEENAN, today.
Dr. Settlers asks for an amendment
of the decree of divorce which
Josephine Settlers obtained against
him by inserting provision that he
be allowed at stated intervals to see
and converse with his children.
Affidavits were presented to the
court by Settlers attorney. John w.
Merritt, setting forth that prior to

evolved out Of the discussion and
dispute.
At the afternoon meeting, which
began at 1880 1t was announced
that Professor Waller would be
compelled to leave again tonight
and that therefore some sort of
order would be pulled out of the
talgle this afternoon.
I. Up to q late hour this afternoon
the engineers and the council were
still rambling about the hedges of
figures and estimates, each trying
to show a better plan. g.
Indications are that unless
the engineers get closer together
before adjournment this evening
that the counciiinen will be unable
to select plan or a compromise.
Failing In such event 1t is more
than likely the council will be COM
PEELED to resort to the plan of re-
ferring the two plans to a third
engineer,

COUNCIL LISTENING
TO ENGINEERS

Professor Waller, Otte Weile,
City Engineer Gill and Charles Nc
Intyre have the center of the ring
in the executive meeting of the
city council which began at nine
O'Clock this morning.
The opposing engineers con.
sumed the entire forenoon in
wrangling over the plans Of the
city engineer and the water COM
mission and at noon about the only
progress noted was the racking
headaches of some of the confined
councilmen.
The entire mass Of figures and
comparative tables were gone over
again and much the same line of
argument carried through as char
acterized the last meeting of the
committee of the whole.
Up to noon nothing had develop
ed which would lead to the belief
that a compromise plan would be

about SIX months after the decree Of
divorce was obtained against him
He married one Annie Cowan, who
had figured in the divorce proceed
ings brought by the mother Of the
children DIR. Settlers now seeks to
visit.
This second marriage Of the doctor
has forever estranged the former
wife. War against the doctor is
openly declared and there will be no
compromise.
The divorced wife denies that there
was ever any agreement that the
father should ever visit his children.
She says. however, that she had said
to him that If he would consent not
to marry Annie Cowen and have moth
ing more to do with her she would
consent that he might see the chill
dren as often as he chose.
1t appears that there was some talk
had at one time Of a reconciliation
between the doctor and Josephine Set
tiers IL he would promise never again
to see Annie Cowan.
There is a direct conflict between
the parties as to every statement
made by either.
The Doctors divorced wife claims
that the Doctors influence over the
children is bad. She claims that when
he was permitted to see them he told
them they were to have new
mamma who would be good to them.
She says he is always too indulgent
with the children and has no idea
Of how they should be governed and
brought up. She declares that his

He watches everything going on and
seems to understand fully the points
raised In the selection of the jury
When the court adjourned at noon
10 jurors had been found who are
satisfactory to both the prosecutions
and defense. but this number may b
cut down by peremptory challenges
by either side.

the granting of the decree 1t was
agreed by Mrs. Settlers and her at
torneys, Sullivan, Nuzum & Nuzum,
that the decree should contain the
provision now asked for, but that by
ihadvertence this was omitted when
the decree was drawn.
After the divorce was obtained Mrs.
Settlers refused to allow her former
husband to see the children.
Mrs. Settlers has changed attorneys
and is now represented by Tollman
& Kimball. who vigorously oppose the
application made today.

the part of the husband was the bur-
den of the story told by Zarah F.
