ALLEGED BleAMIsT IN COURT
Evidence Shows That J. r. WylIe
Took Second Wife Without
Securing Divorce


]. r. Wylie was yesterday arraigned
before Justice Pierce and held in the
sum of $4,000.
The facts developed showed that
Wylie had been married in Chittenden,
Rochester county, New York, in 1888.
This marriage was not only consum-
mated before a minister of the gospel,
but also there was a ceremony per-
formed before a justice of the peace.
With the woman to whom he was
doubly married Wylie lived in Chit
tenden until 1904. .
With them in the house lived Mrs.
Fannie Green, who was not only a serv-
ant in the family but also was a mem
ber of the church of which her en-
ployer was the pastor. In 1904 Wylie
removed to Arizona with his wife and
with them at their solicitation went
Mrs. Green.
Finding that Arizona was not to her
taste Mrs Wylie made up her mind
that she would come on to Los Ange-
les and announced her intention of so
doing to her husband and Mrs. Green,
The three were living in a tent at the
time and when Mrs. Wylie had left
they were married by a justice of the
peace. No defense was attempted. The
woman sought to excuse herself by say
ing that she had been compromised by
remaining in the tent alone and that
she thought that the best way to pro-
tect herself was to marry, regardless
of the law.

CAR COLLIDES WITH WAGON
Driver for Laundry Company De-
clares Motorman Was Careless
and Followed Too Close

A Los Angeles railway University
car attempted to hurry a delivery
wagon of the California Laundry COM
pany at Fifth and Spring streets yes
terday afternoon, and the results were
disastrous.
w. J. Gates, driver for the laundry
company, was driving south on Spring
street when the car approached from
the rear. Owing to the congested traffic
at the corner the driver was unable to
move very fast and the car followed at
close range. Suddenly the wheel of the
wagon became caught in the tracks of
the switch, stopped the vehicle. The
car struck the wagon and the wheel
collapsed.
The car, No. 44S, was in, charge Of
conductor No. 447 and motorman No.
lat. Witnesses of the accident say that
the motorman was to blame, as he fol-
lowed too close to stop in time.
Mr.. Ellison, manager of the laundry
company, said: This is getting mono
tonous. Several times the cars have
damaged our wagons and the company
has failed to make it good. If they dc
not do something about this I shall
bring suit for damages"

MAGUIRE DEFEATS KENISTON
Takes Every Game In Qualifying
Series for Right to Play KEN
nedy for Championship

William Mcguire won the final game
in the 1000-point match series with
Frank Keniston last night, making it
three straight victories and the series
by reeling off the 1000 points while
Keniston scored $685.
Remission has not shown his best form
in any of the three games in this
match, but Mcguire has played con-
sistently and entertained the large
crowds in attendance with high runs
and high averages which bodies no
good to George w. Kennedy, the South
ern California balk line champion,
when they meet in the next fortnight.
On the series Mcguire made a grand
average of 10 30-97 and his high runs
were "a, AZ, As, 81, So, Al. 35, rs. The
latter high run was unfinished last
night, completing his score of 400
points.
Keniston averaged only 1896 on the
three nights play and his high runs
were go, SO, 20, 1S, 10 and 26. The balls
seemed to have grudge against Ken
iston and he did not show the form
of which he is capable when the worries
roll right.
This series was a qualifying match
between them for the right to play
Kennedy for the championship of
Southern California and the champion
ship series will be begun within the
next fortnight at Henry Berry's Hoff-
man parlors.
Because of the we'll known ability of
Kennedy in coaxing the ivories and
the great form shown by Mcguire in
the qualifying match the championship
series will attract unusual attention
from the fans and already discussions
as to the probable winner are lively.
Kennedy and Mcguire have twice met
in match games, Kennedy winning each
time by slight margin. but it is cited
that Mcguire is a muchly-improved
player now and will give the champion
hard rub for the laurels at the balk
line game.

RIPS OPEN MANY
DIVORCE SCANDALS
COURT DECISION APPALLING
TO SPLIT COUPLES
Decree is Simple and Does Not Con-
Germ Cases Who're Actual
Service Has Been Made
Upon Defendant
Bv Associated Press.

Bv Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, d. c.. April 1s.-
There Is no doubt that the decision of
the United States supreme Ncourt
handed down Monday will rip open
thousands of divorces which were sup
posed to be binding by all parties to
them. 1t will dissolve all marriages
made by parties to such divorces af-
terwards, and all children of those sub
innate, and will be unable to inherit
property from their parents,
The decision of the United States
supreme court, revolutionary though it
may seem, Is extremely simple in its
actual bearing. In the first place, 1t
must be understood that 1t does not
concern any divorce case whatever
where there has been actual service
upon the defendant, and where the
defendant actually has appeared in
court in person or by an attorney. 1t
does not concern any divorce case
whether the defendant is present in
court or not, when the offense for which
divorce is granted was committed with
in the jurisdiction of the court.
The decision of the supreme court,
expressed in the briefest possible form
| is:
That no court can grant a valid di-
Vorce unless the defendant is person.
| ally within the jurisdiction of the court.
or unless the offense for which the di-
vorce is granted was committed within
the jurisdiction of the court.
Scope of Decision
1t is easy to see how widespread will
be the effect Of this decision. Every
husband and wife who has secured a
divorce in one state for an offense COM
mitted in another inswhich the defend
ant still resided, is married still in
| the state where he or she had his or
her original domiclle.
| The decision does not absolutely an
nul divorce, nor does it absolutely an
null any subsequent marriages, nor d.
rectly illegltimatize the children. The
divorce, the subsequent marriage and
the right of the children can only be
attacked, apparently, by subsequent
proceedings on the part of the party to
the criminal marriage who was not
consulted and who took no part in the
divorce proceedings.
That is to say, one state is not bound
to accept the decree of a divorce court
in another state unless that decree was
found as the result of complete juris-
diction of the defendant or the offense
OF course, if the defendant does not
subsequently appeal to the court, the
original decree stands because no one
else has a right to question it,
In all those cases, therefore, where
what Is known as Dakota divorces
are not contested, they will stand. II
the defendant, whether man or woman
has died, they will stand, and the prop
ertv rights of the new wife and chill
dren will not be interfered with.

CATCH A TARTAR WITH CATS
Women Who Undertake to Feed Stray
Fellnes Overwhelmed by Humane
Adventure

Special to The Herald,
NEW YORK, April 15,-When Mrs.
Joanna Grove and Mrs, William Grove,
both of 33 East Forty-first street, rushed
into the Alexander avenue station last
night they were so excited that they
required several seconds to recover
breath enough to exclaim together:
Cats! Dozens of them! The cellar is
full and they are all fighting. Please
come and take them away"
Sergeant Thompson rang for the de-
tective staff and asked for further de-
tails. The women explained that they
had been greatly bothered with stray
cats and decided to trap the surplus
population of their neighborhood and
then have the Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Animals remove and pain
lessly destroy the pests. They left a
cellar window in their home half open
every evening for several nights and
spread meat on the floor. In the morn
ing they gathered the catch of cats and
imprisoned them in boxes.

came for the cats, which accumulated
rapidly through the trapping. Feeding
them became an important economic
problem and they were put on short
ations.
AS result, the women reported, the
cats broke out of the boxes and made
onslaughts on the kitchen door, be-
coming frenzied at the smell of food.
They tore down shelves of preserves
and generally reduced the Grove cellar
to condition OF spectacular wreck.

Special to Ihe Herald.
CAIMANERA, Cuba, April 1S.-When
the Kearsarge had finished two very
successful runs firing at targets on
Friday afternoon using all four guns or
her forward turret she turned off range
to secure it. One gun. the left thirteen =
| inch piece, was loaded when the firing
ceased. Lieutenant Hudgins, the tur-
ret officer, and Lieutenant Crane, the
umpire remained in the turret discuss
| ing some firing rules.
The turret crew, about ten minutes
after firing ceased, began to unload the
guns. Three sections of the charge had
been withdrawn by metal hooks and
| placed on the turret floor. when the
man handling the hooks accidentally
short-circuited the switch to the cleo
| trio ammunition hoist behind him,
| causing the arc which fused the metal
| of the switch. The molten particles
| dropped into the powder on the floor
and seeing the danger the man jumped
headlong down through the turret and
was but slightly injured. Lieutenants
| Hudgins and Crane and eleven sea-
! men were seriously burned, No eX-
plosion took place and no sound was
| heard by the officers on the bridge.
but smoke and flames burst from the
| turret.
Fire quarters were sounded and hose
| laid to the fire with great promptness.
| IT was put out without difficulty and
| further damage was prevented. The
burned men were removed at once.
| Six of the enlisted men are dead.
| Lieutenant Hudgins died at a quarter
| of four o'clock the next morning, and
Lieutenant Crane, who was removed
at once to his own ship, the Maryland,
! died at 6 o'clock. The condition of the
| injured men Is favorable.
| Every officer and man on the Kear-
| sarge behaved in the coolest and
bravest manner after the accident.
There is a long list of men and officers
whose bravery was conspicuous.
Bravery Of Seamen
Lieutenant Hudgins pushed w. King,
| ordinary seaman, away from the flames
and interposed his own body. King
was very severely burned and in his
delirium cried: "Mr. Hudgins, you are
saving me, but burning yourself"
Lieutenant Hudgins insisted on hav-
| ing his men removed from the turret
before the rescuers took him out. Lieu
| tenant Crane asked that the Others
be attended by the surgeons before
him, and repeatedly inquired after his
comrades.
| Z A. Koester, turret captain, him
top of the turret shouting for help fol-
those inside When the fire was put
ont and the rescue began he sank down
saying:
"Good-by, Kearsarge."
He was conscious until his death al
9.15 o'clock that night, and gave q
clear statement of what had happened
in the turret, though suffering excru-
ciating pain.
All of the wounded men showed great
fortitude and self-control, uttering
rnany expressions of affection and re-
gard for Lieutenant Hudgins.
It appears certain that the electric
switch was short-circuited by the han
die of the shell tongs striking 1t and
Susing the Jaws of the switch.
