SUES BROTHER
OF MRS. PALMER
Asks $4,000 for Alleged
Breach Of Promise.

Chicago, April 10.-Adrian c.. Honore,
a brother Of Mrs. Potter Palmer, has
been sued in the superior court for $780,
600 damages for breach of promise.
Virginia Bowden Is the plaintiff. Very
little is known about Miss Bowden ex-
cept that she was employed in some
capacity in Mr.. Honore's Office or at
his home. No. 21O3 Michigan nj
There was no declaration filed with the
suit and Attorney Frank Schoenfield
refuses to discuss it. Mr.. Honore said:
There is absolutely no basis for the
suit. A number of lawyers have APP
preached ms with this alleged claim
and have attempted to force me to pay
money. Then they abandoned the case.
Now a lawyer has been found to begin
suit. 1t is outrageous"
Mr.. Honore is a lawyer and an ex-
ecltor OF the will of the late Potter
Palmer. He is q brother of Judge Lock-
wood Honore and brother-in-law OF
General Frederick Grant and uncle Of
the Princess Cantacuzene.
There is a mystery about Miss Bow
den. She is not of the Potter Palmer
circle of society and is not known as
being among the women with whom
MI. Honore associates. He will not dis
cuss the suit further.

is generally supposed that if the Frisco
enters Nashville. the three roads will
own the line, even though it may be
controlled by the l. c. R. R. Co.
The interests of the three roads
generally speaking, are mutual and
in all probability the proposed line
will be used by all three of the com
panies all the way from Nashville to
Birmingham. Each one of the COM
panies own a section of the line from
Florence to Birmingham and all three
of these roads are using part of this
line now and exchanging fayors in that
way.
The Commercial Club is going to
make an effort to show the |. G. Rail-
road Co, the advantages of coming
directly through Mt Pleasant and to
influence them to build this way.
Statistics are being compiled and much
information regarding resources OF
this part of the county is being OBJ
tanned and will soon be put in read
able form and printed. The coming
of the main line directly through Mt
Pleasant would be worth hundreds o.
thousands of dollars to her citizens.
