local wool market, and all classes of con-
sumers are purchasing requirements Al
though individual transactions are not as
large as those OF year ago, the aggre-
gate OF sales is substantial. The clothing

Texas and Australian woods are selling,
merchants are generally confident OF
maintenance of values and If changes are
1naugurated they will be toward a higher
level. The condition of all the foreign mar
kets is sufficiently strong to sympathetic
ally sustain the home market. Both large
and small consumers of worsted and clotn-

average purchases running from 1900 to

BEEF STEERS

HOGS-When it was time for the market
70 open this morning there were hardly
enough hogs IN sight to really make
market. There were. however, some very
urgent orders in hand ana buyers We're
out I'm good season picking I'M the early
arrivals at prices fully SC higher and In
some cases fully lOc higher than yester-
day. The advance did not yhow 40 much
en- the top hogs as il did on the bottom
partly because there was nothing especially
choice in tho way OF light weights. As
might be expected on a Saturday, the late
arrivals did not sell to as good advantage
as the early, buyers not being az anxious
for the hogs after the first orders were
filled
The present week opened on Monday with
hogs selling a shade lower hut during the
three days following prices gradually slid
down hiil touching the low point of the
week on Thursday, when the average OF
all the sales was strong l0C lower thnn
the close OF the previous week. Fridays
market was a trile stronger while the adj
vance noted today makes up most ~ the
decline, so that the week closes with the
average market not far from where il was
on last Saturday II might be noted I'm
this connection. however. that while the
average + practically the same. there has
been some change in the prices paid for
the different weights: thus light hogs are
not selling as high as n week ago. with
heavy hogs a little higher In other words
hogs of different weights are now selling
much closer together than they were last
week.

Many Divorces invalid.

Amazing and disquietng Irregularities
in many of the divorces granted in New
York within twenty years have been dis
covered. So far there is a flaw in one
divorce out of every five examined.
These defects were found by William
H. X. Jarvis of the census bureau, and
his corps of fifteen divorce girls sent
from Washington for statistics of di-
vorce. If made known they would make
bigamists of many couples married in
good faith and illegtimatize many chill
dren.
How much and how many of these
discoveries will be made public depends
largely on action to be taken by Mr..
Jarvis If he applies to the court for
necessary data in thousands of cases, an
order may be granted to "unseal the
papers"
From 1886 to 1896 divorces were granted
in the superior court and in the court
of common pleas, here and in Brooklyn.
The average was about 400 a year for
the ten years. Since they were replaced
by the supreme court In 1896 the divorce
records of these two courts In New York
county have been filed away on the top
floor of the county court house. Records
of divorce since 1896 are kept by the
county clerk.
The fifteen examiners from the census
bureau, who are working in room 6, have
reached the year 1887 in their examination
and compilation. Already they have dis
covered that nearly 20 per cent of the
papers filed away are incomplete. They
do not contain any final award or decree
signed by a judge. Without this they
are invalid.

"Love syndicate's" Victims.

District Attorney jerome has brought
to light some interesting details of the
operations of the love syndicate" which
was referred to in this correspondence
last week. The heads of the syndicate
were Mrs Izella Brown and Mrs. George
r. Verrault. Their business was en- en-
snare by means of personal advertise
ments. gentlepen who were willing to
wear the matrimonial yoke, provided the
partner had the financial wherewithal to
make the burden easy.
The syndicate" made its headquarters
in two handsomely fitted houses In the
fashionable westside section, and its OPP
erations required the services of several
persons besides the principals. Two fascl-
mating young women, niece and a
daughter of Mrs. Brown, helped along in
the scheme. Three young men. Gregory
Allen, George Mason and Robert Emmett
Keene. an actor, were also invaluable as
sstants.
The first step was to get the victim to
call on Mrs varrault or Mrs Brown,
one of the other of whom played the role
of the fascinating widow. Then he was
relieved by various tricks of his ready
cash and turned adrift.
When the fair widows" grew tired
of their lovers 1t was George Mason's
business to hurry to some distant city
and send letters to the sutors. These
would be mailed to him from the syndi-
cate headquarters. The dupes. seeing the
postmark, would believe that their fair
charmer had left the city. 1t cost great
deal to send Mason around the country
but 1t was worth the price.
Gregory Allen acted as the butler In
the home where the sutors were re-
ceived. and the young women acted as
ladies' maids
Mrs. Varrault used to go out oftener
than Mrs. Brown with the infatuated
lovers She would always wear a heavy
VEIL and would tell her spellbound adj
mirer that she did 1t to keep her wicked
brothers from seeing her. These rela-
tives she said, were always trying to
make trouble for her. They were schein-
ing to get part of the estate left her by
the rich husband she said had died. Often
when out with one sutton dining at a
fashionable cafe she would be startled
to find another sweetheart sitting idly
at nearby table. She would then hurry

Youth In Hard Luck.

1t seems somewhat hard that love
sick youth should spend six months in
the Brooklyn penitentiary for falling In
love with a widow, and specially when
six young women, who describe them
selves as his old schoolmates sent a
round robin to the magistrate in which
they said: Mr.. Neal Mclean of Gates
avenue is jolly, good boy, and is very
dear to all of U.S." The complainant was
Mrs. Clara Sernseth a widow, who re-
sides near Mermaid avenue. 1t was love
at first sight. Neal was in search for an
affinity, and he found 1t. He hung around
the Widows house and breathed vows of
love and devotion, and even when he was
sentenced to the penitentiary he gallant
" exclaimed: 81 will gladly go to Jail,
Just to show how much l love her."

1T seems to me-" observed Mr.. Woll-
man. that this is good time for you
to break that rule If you feel so positive
about the matter. Why not give me an
order?"
"All right" answered the financier. "Tll
do that If you pay for the luncheon I'll
buy 500 shares, and out of the commission
on that you can settle the check
The order for the shares was sent out
and the two men dismissed the subject
from their minds until they reached the
ocffee and cigars. When they again
looked at the ticker not far from their
table they found Union Pacific had gone
