CAsTELLANE DIVORCE.
Court Room Was Crowded When
 Trial Was Resumed To-day.

Paris, Nov 7.-The court room in the palace of justice, occupied by the tribunal of the first instance of the Seine, Judge Ditte presiding, was again crowded to-day when the hear ing of the divorce suit brought by the Countess de Castellane (formerly Anna Gould) against her husband. Count Boni, was resumed.
 Maitre Cruppi, of counsel for the countess, in resuming, referred to the reckless fashion in which the count had spent millions of the countess s money while allowing her only nig- gardly few hundred francs monthly for pin money. Counsel declared that the proofs of the counts infidel- ity and cruelty contained in the thir- teen allegations made last week were sufficient to justify divorce, with out summoning witnesses.
 As evidence of the countess's gen. erosity. counsel cited the agreement of 1898 by which the counts father and mother were guaranteed life income of $5,600 and $1,000 respec- lively.
 Maitre Cruppi then plunged di- rectly into the counts maneuvers. since the divorce proceedings were instituted. to re-conquer his wife's affections.

LIBERTY STREET LAYOUT.
Benefits and Damages Were Assessed
 for It Years Ago.

Considerable speculation is being indulged in at present regarding the probable attitude of the railroad company towards the city govern ment when 1t starts to lay out Liberty street to Bank street. The street was laid ou several years ago and bene- fits and damages awarded, amounting to something over $11,000 divided about evenly between the railroad company and the Benedict X Burn ham Mfg Co. The checks remained in the comptroller's safe for Il long time and finally the railroad people took theirs, but the other never was called for. Now it is supposed to dis continue the layout and make another which will run along the same line, but the grade will be somewhat diff ferent, and the question being asked is will the award be made to the rail- road company for the old layout, which was never worked to count for anything In all fairness it ought to, but it Is likely that the railroad may take the ground that inasmuch as the is discontinued and another taken up the obligation, for the first one has been satisfied and put in q claim for damages again just the same as if no layout ever was made there. The company will be in a position to do that, but it is said by parties who have great faith in Mir Mellen that such claim will be made and that the only damages the road will ask will be all that may be incurred in excess of the first awards.

WORRIED THE MARKET.
Rumored Increase in the Bank of
 England Discount,

New York, Nov 7.-Persistent ru- mors of an increase in the Bank of England discount rate tomorrow and general apprehension as to money conditions, locally, produced a weak opening of the stock market with severe losses in a number of active issues. The monetary situation more than null!fied the effect of the cleo tion, although leading financial in terests were pleased at the return of republican majority to congress. Stocks were practically without sup port at the opening, and losses rang ing from point to two points were registered by more than half score of the speculative fayorites. The To- cal traction stocks were among the weakest issues. London followed it's attitude at home by further selling in this market. Sales for various out of town points were reported and the trading movement was inclined toward the short side.

Paige's Downfall.

Bridgeport. Nov 7.-The main top.
 ic Of conversation here today was the defeat in the twenty-first sensa. torial district of Senator Allan w.
 Paige by Archibald McNeil in yes. terday's election and incidentally there was more or less speculation on the effect it would have in political circles in the state in the future. Ii Is generally agreed that the primary cause of the defeat of Senator Paige was due to the scratching he under went in the hands of members of his own party, for the last time he beat Mir McNeil his figures showed a con- fortable plurality. 2S3. The outward display of enthusiasm by the demo- crats here to-day was another fea- ture of the day after" and wherever groups of members of that party were gathered together there was a bug zing to the effect that their success full candidate for senator from the twenty-first district was already slat- cd for the next democratic guberna- torial nomination. Republicans on the other hand. declared that the next election for governor would be an ideal time to get even for yester- days unexpected setback and that there could be no other logical can iidate than Mir Paige. Certain it wes that no other political event in recent times in this city worked up the voters to such an extent as did yesterdays contest.

New York. Nov T.-Alrlost com. plcte returns from the Greater New York for state offices show that aside from governor the democratic state ticket carried the greater city by plurallties of from 135!O00 to 14J.OOO. This would indicate that unless the republican candidates for offices be low governor ran ahead of Charles E. Hughes above the Bronx. the full iemocratic state ticket. except gover- nor. may have been elected. Returns from up state counties are as yet too incomplete to warrant anything like an accurate forecast.

Easy for Columbia.

Columbia Athletic Club had an easy op-
ponent in the National Athletic Club yester-
day on the grounds at 18th and D streets,
trimming them by the one-sided score Of
IA to 3.
Stone was on the firing line for C. A. c.
and had perfect control OF his speedy de-
livery. allowing but one pass to first and
for the way in which he handled the men
who faced him in the last three innings
During these last three rounds it could be
plainly seen that he was too sick to con-
tinue pitching, but the sturdy player stuck
1t out until the last On the other hand
for the LOSERS was hit rather frequently,
but better result would have undoubt-
edly been in print If his supporters had
played a more steady game.
crack-a-jack of triple play was pulled
off by the c. A. G.. boys in the fourth. After
Wheatley had dropped pretty single to
right, johnson had hunted and reached the
initial sack safely. Robinson drove a swift
line fly to Quantrelle. The latter knew ex-
actly what to do with the ball. He quickly
recovered himself and threw to Mullin at
second, thereby putting Wheatley out and
Mullin returned the ball to the first sacker
and caught Johnson about two feet away
from the bag, and the side was retired on
the astonishing play.
About the only feature of the game that
was of the sensational order was one
hand catch by Mullin on Second for c. A. c.
which probably saved Smith an error and
kept the N. A. c. boys from scoring a
