HOME IS WATCHED.
It. Is Feared the Taggart Children win
Be Kidnapped.

Wooster, o.. Oct 14.=Judge Eason,
who heard the divorce case Of Captain
Elmore F. Taggart against his wife. in
rendering his decision. grants Captain
Taggart the divorce and the custody
of the two children, Culver, aged H.
and Charles. aged z. Although Mrs.
Taggart is denied possession of the
children, she viii be permitted to see
them.
Captain Taggart was in court dur
ing the reading OF the decision Mrs,
Taggart is i'll and was not present
The court room was crowded with an
eagerly eXpectant throng of people.
Judge Eason, before giving his de-
cisi0n, reviewed the petitions, cross
petitions, answers and affidavits. In
the course of his statement, Judge
Eason said that the testimony was
deeply touching, The charge OF
drunkenness against Captain Taggart,
the court said, was not sustained.
The trial lasted seven weeks. The
case went to the court a month ago
The suit was first started in July, 1904.
by Captain Taggart, who filed petition
for divorce, charging his wife with
conduct unbecoming a wife and alleg-
ing the excessive use of intoxicants-
Mrs. Iaggart heard of the proceed
ings in San Francisco several weeks
later. and Immediately started for
Wooster, the home of the Taggarts,
where she fled a counter petition for
divorce against Captain Taggart on the
grounds of cruelty and neglect.
The case has been of exceptional in
terest because of statements during
the trial by Captain Taggart that the
use of intoxicants in the army was so
common as to be almost a. custom. A
number of prominent army officers
were named in Captain Taggart's petit
ton as having been more or less the
cause of the domestic troubles be-
tween Captain and Mrs. Taggart.
Captain Taggart is a well known
army officer. He is a graduate of
West Point, and has served at various
army posts of the army. He was COM
missary officer of a division in the
Cuban campaign. aided in the relief of
the Cubans. served with distinction in
the Philippines and especially in
Samar, was chief of police of Manila
and commanded the hospital ship Re-
lief and the transport Sherman.
Culver, the Oldest child of Captain
and Mrs. Taggart, declared to his
mother that no matter what the court
decided he would rather remain with
her. Before the decision of the court
was announced the child went to his
mother and said.
Mama, won't have to leave you,
