SMOKE ON

NEW YORK, Dec. 23:-Smoke
coming from under a seat in the
mems cabin of the Lackawanna rail
road ferryboat Montclair, of the
Christopher street line, caused much
uneasiness among the passengers
shortly after 6 o'clock last night,
while the boat was in midstream or
her way to Hoboken. A deckhand
got busy with an extinguisher, and
cool heads among commuters soon
Gained the fears of the nervous souls.
AS soon as the Montclair reached
her slip members of the Lackawan-
mas fire department made an inspec-
ton of the boat and reported that no
sparks remained. 1t was explained
that a smoker has thrown a lighted
cigar or cigarette under the seat, set
ting fire to the insulation covering

THE CRESCENT
]. YARDS SOLD.
BIG Ship Building Plant at Eliza
beth Bought by H. G. Laying,
the Consulting Engineer.

ELIZABETH, Dec. 23:-The Cres-
cent Shipyards property along the wa
ter front from Marshall street to the
centre of the block between East
Jersey and Fulton streets, has been
sold to H. G. Laying, a consulting
engineer of IS Broadway. New York,
The purchase price could not be
ascertained today, as all the details
attendant upon the transfer of the
property have not been arranged.
Mr.. Laying, talking over the tele-
phone this afternoon, said that a COM
pany would be formed Immediately
and a factory erected for the manu-
facture of briquets, which is a sub
stitute for coal. All of the machin-
cry of a special nature to be used in
the building has already been con-
structed, and is awaiting delivery.
AS soon as the new owners are able
to get the necessary lumber on the
ground, work upon the factory will
be begun.
Mr.. Laying said that nothing but
local labor will be employed in the
erection of the building. He would
not give the names of any of those
who will be with him in the forma-
ton of the company, because, he
said, they had not yet completed
their plans.
From another source it was learn
ed that a Mr.. Bartnett and a Mr..
Tredwell the former of California
and the latter of New York, are in
terested in the project, and that Mr..
Bartnett will probably be one of the
principal stockholders. Mr.. BARNETT
has conducted a plant for the manu-
facture of the briquets for the last
four or five years near San Francisco
and it has proven so successful that
it was decided to start a similar in
dustry somewhere in the east.
The briquets are made of anthra-
cite coal dust which combined with
some other materials in a secret pro-
cess is pressed into the form of
bricks and put on the market as a
substitute for coal. 1t is claimed that
they kindle more rapidly than coal
and give a much hotter fire at less
cost. 1t is expected that the new
plant will have facilities to turn out
between 500 and 1000 tons of
briquets a day.
Fhe Crescent yards were sold last
January to the Bethlehem Steel Com
pany while they were in the hands
of the receiver appointed for the
property, United States Senator
James Smith, of Newark. Since then
the yards have been practically
closed.

WOOLW0RTH DIVORCE
DECLARED NOT VALID
New York Court Hands Down Deci-
sion in Favor of Mrs. Wool
worth.

A decision that lawyers think of
far-reaching importance in the mat
ter of divorce was handed down in
New York by Superior Court Justice
O'Gorman in the case of Woolworth
VS.. Woolworth.
1t is the question as to whether a
South Dakota divorce granted there
while a counter suit is pending in
another state is valid. The case be-
fore Justice O'Gorman was that of
Martha G.. Woolworth, of Plainfield,
against Herbert G. Woolworth, II
of the founders of the ten-cent store
industry, one of which is in this city.
The justice decided against Mr. Wool
worth.
Mr.. Woolworth, in 1908, institu-
ted an action against his then wife,
Martha Gwenn Woolworth, in the Su-
preme Court of New York state. 1t
was heard by Judge Leaventritt. 1t
was for absolute divorce based upon
statutory grounds, and came up for
trial in January, 1904. The jury
disagreed but the case was tried
again in March following. This time
the jury found in favor of the defend
ant.
In March, 1904, Mr.. Woolworth
went to the state of South Dakota
and engaged in business there. At
ter residing there for six months he,
in September of the same year,
brought suit in the supreme court of
that state before Judge Joseph W..
Jones for absolute divorce, charging
her with desertion. The case came
up for hearing November 7 of last
year, and Woolworth was granted a
decree. Prior to his obtaining this
decree in South Dakota, but after the
suit had been started, Mrs. Wool
worth, who resided in New York
state, brought action against her
husband in New York on the ground
of desertion.
Woolworths appeared by counsel
and filed an answe 1t came up be-
fore Justice O'Gorman, in November,
this year, and the court, after hear
ing the evidence, gave the counsel
untll DeCeluD6I 4 Ill WHICH, W SubHllL
briefs.
1t was on these lines that the de-
cision of yesterday was handed down.
Justice O'Gorman saying in part:
Mere residence in a state will not
support a divorce suit. The factum
of residence and the minus manendi
prove the domicile. Mere bodily
presence, without an intention of re-
naming in the state, is sufficient.
The wife's domicile changes.
While the husband has the right,
without his wife's consent, to change
the family domicile, the wife's domi-
Gle cannot be changed when she Is
deliberately kept in ignorance of her
husbands movements and not invit-
ed 10 accompany him. His refusal of
the plaintiffs repeated offers to live
with him, and his secret removal to
a distant state without inviting his
wife to accompany him or providing
for her support here, make the de-
PENDANT the deserter, and in my opin-
ion the South Dakota decree confers
on him no protection or immunity in
this state"
