Caucus Under Difficulties.
In the first ward, Alex. Milne OF the
firm Of Littleiohn & Milne, granite
dealers, was nominated for alderman
and Alexander Gordon for school COM
missioner. It looked for q time as If
the caucus would have to be held on
the front steps Of the Church street
school building, with the temperature
below zero, as the janitor could not be
found, nor any person who possessed
a key to the building. Finally Supt
Mathewson discovered a means of en-
trance in the rear and the voters fled
in after standing out in the cold for
half an hour. One lantern, two lamps
and the glowing ends of several score Of
fragrant Hayanas furnished the light
by which the chucus was conducted.
Frank G. Howland called the caucus
to order and was elected chairman, with
o. d. Mathewson as clerk. There was
no delay then and Alex. Milne and
Charles 7. Campbell were soon placed II
nomination for alderman, the former by
S. Il. Perry, and the latter by JohT
Wylic. Ned j. Roberts had withdrawn

FINDING III LArHR0P CASE
Nss. LasArop Ai.pwsl sieo Month
 and 9seo cesnssl Fees.

The long looked for finding in the Lathrop case was filed with the clerk of the superior court today. The case
 occupied three months at intervals and
 Attorney ]. P. Kellogg, who was np- pointed a committee to take the eyi- dence took three weeks or more to pre- pare his finding. Mrs, Lathrop sued for support.
 Mir Kellogg finds that the LAthrops parted in June, 1903. When they mar ried Mrs Lathrop was 24 and Mir La thrOp 56. Their marital relations
 ceased on June 5. 1903. the defendant telling his wife that he could no long r.live with her. but that she could re-
 main in tbe house and hG would pay
 her $50 q month for her support and
 If she needed any more he would sup ply it. Until March, 1904. she received
 check for $50 regularly every month.
 Then payments stopped. In July. 1903 the defendant. with several officers,
 went to the house and though his wife was i'll he stripped 1t of almost every piece of furniture and informed her l that she would have to quit
 l In September of that year Mrs La. throp wrote her husband that she | needed more than $50 a month to live on and he wrote back asking her for
 an itemized account of her expenses to satisfy himself that her claim was
 honestly founded.
 1 Mir Kellogg finds that while the
 Lathrups were friendly and living to- | gether, their expenses amounted to
 about 5000 year, that Mrs Lathrop
 is now without any income and is un-
 able to work. He also finds that Mir | Lathrop derives an annual income of $500 from his Bank street property, that 1t worth about $75.00O. and there | is mortgage on it for $35,OO0. and that 1t is annually increasing in value Mir Lathrop kept company with | other women besides his wife while living with her and after he had left her and that he went to New York sev- eral times with one of them and for this woman he subsequently paid for a divorce. He was in this woman's
 company quite frequently. In July, 1903, detectives from New York were first put on the case, that is. to ascer- tain how Mir Lathrop occupied his time
 The detectives however, were a
 failure, and Mrs Christian Delkescamp was employed. This woman told Mrs
 Lathrop's lawyer at that time that
 she would procure the evidence that was needed Mrs Lathrop. however,
 was not acquainted with this woman's engagement.
 After a while Mrs Delkescamp fur
 nished the requisite testimony. but it
 turned out that 1t was false, made up
 by her for effect on the lawyer. and her statement, which was put on paper
 was torn up.
 Mrs Lathrop is allowed $100 a month
 from the date of the action July. 1903, to the present time, making about 400. She is also allowed $500 for lawyers fees. This report will he taken before some judge of the super for court who will either accept or re- ject it. Arguments will be made as to whether or not Mir Lathrop can afford to pay his wife $10O month and $2. 400 in lump sum.
