DEARTH OF OYSTERS IN EAST.
Recent Billiards Blocked All the Beds
With Ice

NEW YORK, March 24.-New York
is suffering from dearth of oysters.
1t has not yet become noticeable in
the restaurants, nor has it seriously
interfered with the business of the re-
tail dealers, but the scarcity is more
pronounced than it has been for years,
and the wholesale men are having
much difficulty in filling their orders.
There is little danger of an oyster
famine, however" said a member of
one of the large firms. I'VE are getting
just about enough to enable us to keep
going from day to day, but we have
had to cut the supply considerably.
For instance, if retailer wants 5000
he is lucky if he can get 1000. This
condition is due to the heavy winter,
which has blocked the oyster beds
with ice.
Many Of the houses that get oysters
from Greenpoint, Northport and Rock
away, have had to uload their boats
on the ice and bring the oysters to the
city by rail, but we hope that every
thing viii be running smoothly in a
few days, and that the supply will be-
come normal again.
Baltimore also reports a scarcity of
oysters from the same cause, but that
does not affect New York much. AS
a matter of fact many of the houses
mere send oysters down there instead
Of depending upon that city for the
supply"

Benefit OF HOLLAND.
Testimonial Given In New York by the
Actors and Actresses.

NEW YORK, March 24.-One of the
tors and actresses ever formed was
seen on the stage Of the Metropolitan
opera house this afternoon. They
were the participants in a performance
given for the benefit of Joseph Hol-
land, the actor, VINO, by reason of
physical disability, is incapacitated
from further stage work.
All the seats in the theatre were sold
several days ago, and it is expected
the net profit to Mr.. Holland will ag-
gregate fully $4,000. The Lambs
club and the Players club each paid
$1,000 for single seats, while leading
members of the professions and adj
mirers of Mr.. Holland in the outside
world paid fabulous prices for boxes
and seats. Ali of those who took part
in the performance voluntarily con-
tributed their services, and the same
was true of the stage mechanics AMI
OIherS VINO a1Qeu III the leSI1InOn1dl.
The programme of the entertain
ment was made up of sketches and bits
of plays now being seen in the lead
ing theatres of the metropolis. An
original burlesque was also given.
Among the prominent players who
took part were Blanche Walsh, Mrs.
Leslie Carter FRITZ Scheff, Ethel
Barrymore, Blanche Bates, Marie
Dressler, Grace George, Phoebe Da-
vies, Robert Edeson, Arnold Daily,
William Gillette, Frank Daniels, Da-

HEAVY SLUMP IN MATRIMONY.
England Notes Steady Decline for Six
Years.

LONDON, March 24.-The figures of
the decline in Great Britain's birth
rate, which aroused such serious mis-
givings, have now been supplemented
by similar statistics, which would
seem to point to the popularity of mar
riage being on the decline.
The year 1903 was marked by a
heavy slump in matrimony Not only
was there a decrease in the number
of marriages as compared with the
previous year. a phenomenon which
has manifested Itself continuously
since 1899, but the rate of marriages
based on the manageable proportion
of the community was the lowest for
more than twenty years.
One of the most striking points about
give that the famous advice of Mr..
Weller Sa., to beware of the vidders,"
has taken firm root in this country.
The number of remarriages among
widows has been declining steadily
for nearly thirty years, and in 1903
only 65S in every 1000 widows were
called upon to take vows for the sec
ond or third time, as against SO in
1879-1S8O. One paper in commenting
on this fact, suggests that this is
strong presumptive evidence of the
firm hold which "Pickwick" has taken
on the public mind.

PACIFIC ENGINEERS
HAVE ESTABLISHED CAMP
NEAR LEWISTON.
Believe Company Will Construct Line
Down Snake River to Riparia
Thence to Pasco.

The Northern Pacific company fired
being waged with the o. r. & N. in the
Lewiston country. A party of twelve
surveyors reached Lewiston yesterday
and it is expected that they will at
once commence the survey down the
south bank of the Snake river. The
engineers have established a camp at
Charleston and the party is under the
charge of H. c. Sstep and E. Friday
The greatest secrecy is being exercised
and the members of the party refuse
to discuss their identity or their mis-
sion at this time.
The Lewiston Northern Pacific office
disclaimed any knowledge of the pres
ence of an engineering party there and
from the prearranged plans it is evil
dent that the engineers expected to
pass through the city without being
discovered, says the Tribune.
The arrival of the party in Lewiston
for the purpose of making the survey
from that point and Charleston down
the Snake river to Pasco and perhaps
important development in the big con-
| f1ict now being carried on between the
railroad companies for supremacy in
that territory. 1t is believed that this
| move will be followed within a very
snort time by active construction
| work that will surpass the big battle
of five years ago when nearly three
thousand men were employed in the
work between Lewiston and Riparia.
/ The movement of the Northern Pa
| cific engineers in every part of the
field has been marked with a certain
defniteness that has given the impress
sion that the plan of operations has
been fully decided upon by the con-
struction department and that the
| much needed relief in the way of trans
portation facilities is now to be grant
ed.
The old Northern Pacific survey
crosses the Snake river at a point al
most due west from the companys
round house and from Charleston fol-
| lows down the south bank of the river
to a point below Riparia, where the
river is again crossed and the line ex-
tended to Pasco. The company also
! has a survey down the north bank of
| the Columbia from Pasco to Portland
and engineers are now in the field re-
newing this survey.
! The situation now shows clearly
that the fight is being resumed on the
identical lines of the contest of five
years ago-a battle for the water
grades with the Lewiston country as
| the storm center.

alleges that at the time the divorce
was granted to Ada H. Western she
was about to become a mother to a
child of which another man other than
her husband was the father; that a
month after the divorce the child was
born, and in less than a month after
its birth it was buried.
TO prevent Westerns son from tell.

plant declares that Mrs. Western and
her paramount bribed and induced Pc

pioneer. to leave Seattle and go to the
Philippines a few days before he was
10 be called as a witness on behalf Of
his father.
Charges False Pretense.
Ihe complaint also alleges that in
the very month the divorce was given.
Mrs. Western pretended to Edward 6.
keene, a money lender. that she Voc
the wife of H. B. Hudson. and signed
mortgage with him as his wife. Mr.
Fulton says that as soon as the civi,
suit is disposed of the woman will be
prosecuted upon charge of obtaining
money by false pretenses. All of the
facts which are advanced in the COM
plant as arguments why the court
should set aside the divorce decree
were, it is claimed, discovered nv
Western after the decree was granted
to his wife
AT that time Western was in an i'm
poVerlshed condition and had no money
to carry on an investigation. Later
friends came to his assistance. and ne
was enabled, it is alleged. to discover
the facts set up in the complaint. If
he had lived the suit to set aside the
decree would have been brought in his
name. Walter S. Fulton had the COM
plant prepared for his signature and
took it down to the poor farm, where
he had been sick for some time, to
sign. The attendants told the lawyer
that his client had died the day pre-
vious. In the will filed for probate
yesterday was found the provision that
suit should be prosecuted to have
the decree set aside by the court. This
duty is imposed upon the executor.
The will provides that if the suit is
successful the farm snail be held in
trust for Westerns two minor daugh-
ters. His son, who is said to have
accepted a bride to go to the Philip
pines at the request of his mother.
will be given 81.

DEATH DOES NOT END SUIT.
Henry n. Western, In His Will, Asks
That Case Be Continued.

SEATTLE, Wash, March 24.-Suit
to annul a decree of divorce after one
Of the parties had died. In his last
will and testament which was ad
mitted to probate yesterday, Henry
H. Western, a pioneer of King county,
provided that his executor should carry
on litigation to have the decree of di-
vorce given mis- wife three months ago
dissolved and vacated. In accordance
with this request of the deceased the
executor of his will this morning COM
menced a suit to set aside the decree.
In a decree of divorce granted Mrs.
the woman was named as sole and
separate owner of a farm eight miles
from the city, upon which the deceased
pioneer had resided for thirty eight
years. The farm, which consisted of
244 acres, and was valued at 100000,
had been taken up as homestead by
Henry H. Western. The suit COM
menced today by the executor of the
will has for its purpose the vacation
of the decree granting this land to the
former wife.
To Vacate Decree.
Western, in his will, made 1T the
duty of the. executor of his will to
bring suit to wrest possession of the
property from his one-time wife. He
wished to see the farm taken from her
and held in trust for his two minor
daughters. After the farm upon which
western had lived for thirty-eight
years was given to his wife, the old
pioneer. being without means, was
forced to leave it and take refuge in
the county poor farm. There he died
March 15 In his last days he sub
sisted on the charity of his friends
while his wife lived on the farm and
used the profits accruing from it for
her own benefit. Although the old pio-
neer was 6S years of age, his wife was
but SO.
The complaint filed this morning by
Walter S. Fulton to set aside the de-
cree contains sensational charges. 1t
