ALBANY. Nov 1.-THE Right. Rev Will
lam Croswell Doane, Episcopal Bishop of
Albany, who for years has been Iaboring
for uniform divorce laws in ali Of the States,
had this to say tonight regarding Mrs.
Herbert Parsons's book:
This Ia the most revolutionary and in
decent performance Of anything ! have
ever heard. | oannot understand why a
woman in her position expresses such ideas
Il Is too bad to he true. The only thing TO
be said of the book, 70 far as l have read
the excerpts, is that it is a fundamental
denial of the religious, civil and social
position that marriage has always occupied.
The theory of what she calls 'tria! mar
riages' is to my mind an outrage. II
attacks the most vital part, the home life.
not 30 much the relation between husband
and wife, but the home. 1t is opposed to
and in contradiction of the entire religious,
legal and social views az to what marriage
H. From a religious point of view il is
blasphemous; from a legal standpoint il
is a destructive revolution. and from a
human standpoint il implies disaster and
disgrace

"BE AWARE AND WARY"
Marie COrenI Has . Dream That America
Is Going 10 Grab or England.
Special Cable Despatch TO THE Sun.


LONDON, Nov. IL Marie Corelli, the
novelist. is suffering from a bad attack Of
~anti-Amerioan spleen. She denounces the
Times for organizing an American press
and book syndicate to monopoliz re English
literature, and thus delivers herself:
THE idea that America loves the dear old
country is a sentimental fallacy. Her af-
lection is merely that of the wolf in the
story OF Little Red Riding H ood.' Her
friendly smile shows teeth that are all the
better to eat you up with, my dear. AS a
matter Of fact America envies Great Britain
with the envy Of a half grown, half edu-
Gated daughter. jealous Of her beautiful,
ever young and ever admired mother.
There is no love in the case. II is a matter
of sharp, often INSCRIPTIONS business"
Miss Corelli then points to the act hat
the Standard Oil trust is now seeking a
refuge in England under the name OF the
General, Industrial Deve lopment Company
and thateshe British public, good natured,
easy going and unsuspecting, are possibly
unaware that an American trust" monopoly
Of the British press and British literature
is, in all probability, the e suggested
by certain smart Yankees a the best and
-cutest7 way to control British affairs.
The public, she adds, are Toe often unaware
OF such things, but she would say to those
at the present juncture: BE aware, be
very much aware, and wary

RICH AMERICAN CORRESPONDENT

Expected Divorce Suit.

Special Gable Despatch TO THE SUN.
LONDON, Nov. lS.-ReynoIds's Ne,gspdp per
says a divorce suit will be entered in
the course of the coming week by a well
known peer who takes the name ofsa
northern county for a title. The suit, if
contested, will throw strange side lights
upon society doings. The correspondent
Is understood to be a well known American
millionaire who is reported to ave spent
a quarter OF a million pounds sterling on
presents for the lady who is the cause Of the
trouble.
Matters were brought to a crisis a fort
night ago when, quite unconscious Of the
result Of her action, the lady in question
indiscreetly wore diamonds which had
been presented to her at the annual county
ball, OF which she was one Of the leading
patronesSes. 1t was a demand made by
her noble husband for an explanation Of how
she got the gems that resulted in breaking
up the hitherto supposedly happy family.
The paper concludes the story by saying:
The departure on Thursday Of the Ameri-
can millionaire on a lengthy cruise will now
perhaps be more fully understood

ALBANY, Nov. 17.-There has been a great

failed to file with the Secretary Of State
within ten days OF election, expiring yester-
day, a sworn certificate showing his cleo

addition provides that the candidate 80

Special Ca0is Despatch 10 the Sun.

Speetdb Cd0ts Desp0tch 70 HE sun.
COLON, Nov. l7.-President Roosevelt
spent the day in making an inspection Of
the canal line. He made numerous u g
g~estions where an improvement seemed
necessary as to the way in which changes
should be made. The special train reached
Cristobal at midday, and the President took
luncheon at the residence OF Walter G.
Tubby; superintendent Of construction Of
the canal. Afterward the President made q
house to house inspection OF Cristobal.
The special train reached Colon at 4
O'Clock. The President rode on horseback
over the entire town.. He delivered a ten
minute address to the people from a bridge
at the depot, in which he expressed gratifca-
ton at his reception on the Isthmus and
satisfaction with the progress OF the work
Under embarrassing conditions.
He thanked the people for their coopera-
ton in the gigantic work, which, he said.
would benefit mankind. The President
closed by expressing his intention to sus-
tain the Panama republic in the exercise
Of its sovereign rights.
The visit of the President created great
enthusiasm. The ships in the harbor we're
beautifully illuminated and there was a
display Of fireworks in the evening.
The Presidents train was greatly delayed
on account OF a wreck along the line caused
by a landslide. The rain has been very
heavy for two days and several ldndslides
nave occurred. Work on the canal has
been seriously impeded thefeby.

BRYAN COMMENDs ROOSEVELT
For starting standard oil Prosecution
Hopes some One Gees 20 Jail.

CHICAGO, Nov. I7.--William Jennings
Bryan stopped over in this city long enough
to-day TO again express his appreciation
OF President Roosevelt.
Mr.. Roosevelt's determination TO enforce
the law against the Standard Oil Company
is c~ommendable," said Mr.. Bryan Il
might almost say it Is bully. / have never
failed to give Mr.. Roosevelt credit for the
good things he has done. More than any
other man he has educated Republicans
up to the Democratic standard. Mr.. Roose-
welt Is not a. radical "a the Democratic
party, but the good things he has done in
attacking the trusts have been founded on
the policies We have been contending for
these many years.
Il I'M deeply interested in this Standard
Oil case. While l do not know what evil
dence the Government has l hope the law
can be enforced this time, the criminal as
well as the civil law. Very lit1e can be
accomplished by imposing fines on great
corporations for their violation OF the
laws. In the case OF the Standard Oil
Company, for instance, IL would be possible
for b corporation 10 more than make the
fine out Of the people and In less time than
1t takes to pronounce the sentence.
Imprisonment should be insisted on
II the trusts managers are found guilty.
Democrats ave all along contended that
the criminal manager Of q trust should be
sent to prison just like m other criminal.
This can be done under the Sherman law.
We have tried to have this section OF the
antitrust law enforced. I hope Mr.. Roose-
welt will see that il 10 done in this CASE

The jury which has been trying Fred
erick Martin, an iron worker, on the charge
Of a~ssaultins William +. O'Toole, a special
policeman who was employed on the
Hotel Plaza, was discharged yesterday,
having failed to agree. When O'Toole was
assaulted William Butler, another special
policeman, was killed. Union men had
beer dropping bolts on non-union men
employed on lower floors and the special
policemen were supposed to find out who
were doing it, which the iron workers
resented.
Martin swore that hewasn't on the seventh
floor when Butler was killed n O'Toole
assaulted. He said he realized that trouble
was brewing and he ran TO the street. About
q half hour after that he saw from the
street the men fighting on the seventh
floor. Martin called as witnesses a number
Of men who were working on that floor,
including four men who are indicted with
him for assaulting O'Toole, and they all
swore hat there was no fight at all.
The jury, which was out several hours,
stood eleven to one for conviction. Martin
will be tried again.

I'm the Appraisers stores.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.-Gen. George W.
Mindil. who was recently dismissed by
Secretary Shaw as chief examiner OF prec-
ious stones Of the appraisers stores of the
port Of New York. had a conference with
the Secretary of the Treasury to-day in an
effort TO get himself reinstated.
Gen. Mindil was dismissed from the
service as a result Of an investigation which
revealed certain gross irregularities in
connection with his appraisement Of prec-
ious stones. He pleaded with Secretary
Shaw to be allowed to resign. and cited his
long connection with the board Of apprais-
ers and his honorable war record. Secre-
tary Shaw was o~bdurate. however, and
would accord Gen. Mindil no recognition.
1t is not likely therefore that any further
action will be taken in the case.
