WILL ASK DIVORCE.
Anna Gould Wearied Of Title with
Husband Annexed.
EFFORTS. At CANCELLATION FAIL.


Paris, Feb. 6.-Countess Boni de Cas-
tellane formerly Anna Could entered
a plea for divorce Monday. Represen-
tatives of the countess and the count
appeared before Judge Henry Ditto
Of the court Of first instance, who, in
conformity with the French law, en-
deavored to arrange a Cancellation be-
fore allowing a definite suit to proceed.
1t is said on unquestionable authority
that Judge Ditte's' efforts were not
successful, the countess absolutely de-
clining to resume her relations with
her husband, and that after repeated
but vain attempts by Count de Castel-
lanes advisers to arrange settlement
the representatives of the count and
countess left the court and that the
suit will proceed.

COUNTESS DE -cAsTELLANE, FOR
MALLY ANNA GOULD, AND
HER HUSBAND.

Another judicial effort at reconcilla-
ton will almost certainly be made be-
fore the suit comes to trial in the or
binary course.
No decision has been reached rela-
tive to the eventual custody Of the
children Of the count and countess,
but they being under age, will for the
present naturally remain In the care
Of their mother.
Friends Of the Count and Countess
de Castellane express little hope that
any adjustment Of their differences
will be brought about, but as divorce
proceedings under the French law are
very lengthy new developments may
'ur before the case comes up for
trial A decree can not be pro-
nounced under from three to SIX
months
Rumors have been current for a
long time that the countess had de-
cided that any continuation of her re.
lations with her husband was impos-
sible and her removal from the Castel-
lane residence TO a hotel in the cen
ter Of Paris gave support to the belief
that she had finally decided to apply

THE HEPBURN BILL.
Debate In the House on Railroad
Regulation Continues.
STRONG SPEECH BY DURTONOROHIO.


Washington, Feb. 3.-The house me
Friday at II o. m. and Immediately
took up the debate on the Hepburn
bill for the regulation of railroad
freight rates.
Mr.. Thomas said the bill was In
line with the democratic position, thu
presidents position, the views of the
interstate commerce commission, com
mercial bodies all over the country
including his own state, and the out
growth of public sentiment. Referring
to the losses sustained by the truck
ers Of his district last spring, he in
sisted refrigerator cars should be
placed under the control Of the COM
mission.
Mr.. Goulden New York; gave his
reasons for supporting the bill. II
was the best Of Its kind ever pre-
sented. Its benefits were greater than
its defects.
I'm beginning an hours speech In
favor Of the bill Mr.. Burton (0hioI
dwelt on the enormity of the corpora
tons in this country. He could re-
member when this was not the case
when smaller enterprises Hourished.
Now. the mechanism of steam haye
transformed industry completely, So
that the employee is but a cog In I
tremendous mechanism.
The same great strides in. traffic
had also taken place. Regulation was
demanded by the conditions, The
two essential features of the bill were
first, the fixing of a rate, and, second,
the speedy adjudication Of that rate
In the courts.
With 100 rate schedules related one
to the other, he was not sure what
the. result would be nor what the
court of last resort would decide. How
ever, he did not anticipate revolu-
tlonary orders by the commission, nor
havoc as the result of them. The
difficulties of the policies to be inaugu-
rated such as the long and short haul
and the "baslc point" questions, Mr..
Burton believed, should be fixed by
congress. 1t was the failure to exer-
else such responsibilities that resulted
in the plants that the house was
losing its power.
As to rebates, be said, human in
genuity had hardly, II ever, been ex,
ercised to evade the law, as had been
the case since the passage Of the I'll
kins act.
Discrimination between individuals.
he maintained, could and should be
stopped. The discrimination between
places was a difficult problem, In which
many elements entered and which it
may never be possible TO overcome.
II we seek for the real evil, said
Mr.. Burton, we must look to the ideals
OF the people. We have had sicken.
ing examples Of dishonesty in high
places, he added. Success, he said. and
he admiration OF and for great
wealth breaks down the line between
honesty and dishonesty. Legislation
could do much to correct these evils
OF dishonesty. Publicity was one step;
to cease cpndoning great ofenses was
another; to provide equality Of op
portunity. the third To make Il plain

Secretary Metcalf Takes Radical
Action on Exclusion Law.
MANYOF THERESTRICTIONS REMOVED
with View to Checking the Boycott
ON American Goods LOOphOleS
Are Made in Statutes for Ce-
lestIaIs' Convenience.

Washington, Feb. 6.-Secretary
Metcalf, Of the department Of COM
merce and labor, Monday took most
important action which Ia expected to
ameliorate considerably the friction
between this country and China and
, perhaps cause the abandonment Of the
anti-Amerlcan boycott, when he ap-
proved the report of the special com
mittee composed Of Assistant Secreta-
ry Murray, Solicitor Sims and Richard
Campbell, Of the bureau Of immigra-
ton, providing for radical revision
Of the existing regulations under
which Chinese may enter and reside
in the United States. The commits
sion's report touches by way Of either
excelsior or amendment "a of the ex-
listing regulations, the change being
made in the direction of liberalization
Beside certain alterations that prom
Use to avoid delay in landing Chinese
who apply for admission, other alter
atoms have been made where possible
with view to avoiding any action
that would seem offensive, provided
that the object intended by such reg
ulations could be accomplished other
wise. As an illustration Of this the
committee recommended the discon-
tinuance Of the Bertillon system Of
identification.
Some Of the more important changes
in the regulations follow:
Prohibiting officers Of the service
from boarding foreign vessels arriving
at United States ports, in enforcing
Chinese exclusion; Chinese who have
been denied admission to be advised
by notice in Chinese Of their right to
appeal; eliminating the rule giving
to administrative officers of the gov
eminent the benefit of the doubt In
every doubtful case; extending the time
within which Chinese denied admission
may file notice Of appeal to. the seere-
tary Of commerce and labor; author
king additional extension of time
where a literal compliance with the
rule which extends the time for per-
fecting the record on appeal would
cause injustice to the APPELLANT or risk
defeat Of the purposes OF the law;
permitting the Chinese laborers claim
ing the right to leave the United States
and return thereto to apply the lmmi-
grafton officers most convenient, In
stead Of requiring them to apply to
the officers Of the port Of departure;
directing officials to be certain that
every departing Chinese laborer fully
understands the import Of Section 6
of the act of 1883 which provides that
be shall hot be permitted to return to
the United States unless he has
lawful wife, child, or parent in the

OBJECTS TO CAUCUS RULE.
Senator Patterson Claims Attempt
to Dictate How He Shall Vote
Degrades His state.

Washington, Feb. 6.-Mr Patterson
caused a sensation In the senate by
introducing resolution relative to the
rights Of senators in voting upon
treaties.
Mr.. Patterson's resolution recited
that the action Of the democratic
caucus indicating to senators how they
should vote was a plain violation Of
the spirit and intent Of the constitu-
ton of the United States; that each
senator was entitled to one vote and
any attempt to coerce him was an in
vasion Of the rights Of . state; that
any senator who permits himself to
be so coerced weakens and degrades
his state; that for any senator to vote
otherwise than as his sense Of duty in
dicates degrades his high Office and
assails the dignity and standing of
the senate.
Mr. Tillman objected to the present
consideration Of the Patterson resolu-
ton unless 1t was a question of per-
sonal privilege.
Mr.. Patterson said 1t was not and
gave notice that he would discuss the
resolution Tuesday.
In an interview Monday night Sem
ator Patterson made the following
statement regarding his resolutions:
81 am democrat in every fibre and
could not become a republican. But
my democracy runs. In parallel lines
with that of William ]. Bryan. l
