great movement Of the world today is

of the present century, the century that
we are just entering upon, will be de-
mocracy in all things. One hundred
years from now the population Of our
country, which is now for the most part
wilderness, will be beyond any present
conception and this great nation will
be the most democratic that the world

mocracy will be the great feature Of

Louisville, KY, Jan. 22.-The fact
that Philip Fletcher dropped drop deed . on
did not prevent Judge Miller Jeffer-
son, in the circuit court here, from
granting him divorce from his wife,
Mary Fletcher, on the ground Of
abandonment. For some reason, not ex-
planned, Attorney Minton, who repre-
scented Fletcher, failed to notify the
court of the demise Of his client, so the

CHICAGO IN STORMS GRIP
Rain, sleet and Snow Pull Wires Down
and Block Traffic.

Chicago, Jan. pa severe storm of
alternating rain, sleet and snow, which
commenced just before midnight last
night, caused one Of the worst tie.ups
this city has known in many years.
This morning only a. few telegraph
wires were working out Of the city in
any direction. s..
Inside the city, telephone communica-
tion was badly crippled, the electric
lines of street cars were almost out Of
commission, it sometimes requiring an
hour to move car the distance of one
block. The elevated roads were still
greater sufferers. Many passengers on
the Aurora line and Chicago electric
were compelled to remain all right in
the depots when the road ceased opera
lions on account of the. storm.
Large commission brokerage houses
which ordinarily use from twenty to
thirty wires leading to all parts of the
country, were unable this morning to
send a message ir any direction and
were without advices regarding the sit
uation in other parts Of the country.
Gable dispatches from Liverpool were
handled early in the day, but with this
| exception an absolute dearth Of infor-
nation regarding crops prevailed. The
| long distance service outside Of this
| business district was badly crippled.
| Storm Moves Eastward.
| The weather bureau managed to re-.
ceive some information before the con-
ditions reached the worst stage. It was
announced the storm was moving slowly
eastward, with the center Just north
of Indianapolis. 1t was predicted that
the area of low barometer would slowly
move eastward, altho precipitation
might be expected in this section fol
another twentyfour hours. If this
forecast is verified, it will make forty
eight hours Of rain, sleet and snowfall
without cessation.
The railroads, altho in much bette,
condition to contend against sleet AM
snow than the electric lines, were al
times during the day in desperate
straits. On some of the lines runnin.
east of here, hundreds of miles Of wire
were down, and the dispatchers were
having most anxious time in moving
trains. The result was that practically
all trains due in Chicago from the cas-
were from two to five hours late today
and there was little prospect for i'm
mediate Improvement in the situation.
/ Great trouble was experienced thi
morning by people who use. the electri
city to reach their places of employ
| ment. To add to the other troubles o
J the public, the cable line of the Mort
Side, the main dependence of people i
) that section Of the city, after the Grip

OSLER'S IDEA AS
CAUSE OF SUICIDE
Chicago Coroner Finds Large Sui.
eide Increase Among Men
. Over so Years Old.
journal Special Service.

Chicago, Jan. 22.-That the exploita-
ton of DR.. William Osler's chloroform
theories is a contributory cause of the
startling increase in the number of
suicides in Chicago of men over so
years old during the last year, is the
deduction reached in the coroner IS office
from, review Of the records and a
comparison with those Of 1908 and
1904.
An increase of 25.S per cent over the
figures of 1904 for the suicides of men
between go and 10 years was found
Between the ages of 70 and 80 there
was an increase of 1873 per cent.
The conclusion is that Osler's advo
cacy of the chloroforming of men who
have passed the age of their useful
ness was strengthened by the fact that
eighty-three Of the suicides were foIN
to have been in occupations where they
likely would be readers of newspapers

Some months ago President Roosevelt
