CAMPBELL IS FREED.
Given a Divorce From His Wife by
Judge Dana.

The sequel to the McCabe- Campbell
scandal came on Saturday afternoon at
the Shawnee county district court when
divorce was granted to Frank Camp
bell after a trial that lasted but a short
time.
Campbell is a sign painter He and
his wife haven't been getting along
well and several months ago she filed
a petition in the district court asking
for a separation, charging neglect and
extreme cruelty.
But on the night of April 21 oc-
CURED a sensational escapade which
put an entirely new phase on the situa-
ton. On that night Campbell found
James McCabe and Mrs. Campbell in
a room, on the third floor above his
sign painting shop on Kansas avenue.
McCabe is city engineer of Topeka.
Campbell got into the room by
breaking through the transom. He
had a revolver in his hand with which
he said he intended to shoot MEGA be-
But in breaking the glass in the tran
som, he injured his hand SO badly, that
it became slippery with blood, and he
dropped the weapon McCabe made
his escape. Campbell then beat his wife
with the gun so ha dly that she was
taken to Keith's hospitla for treatment.
Her face was badly battered and her
nose broken.
On Saturday afternoon Judge 2. T.
Hazen Mrs CampbeIl's attorney, went
before the district court and moved
that a divorce be granted Mrs. Camp
bell on her original petition. w F.
Schoch appeared as attorney for Frank
Campbell. He field a cross bill charg-
ing extreme cruelty. Mrs Campbell
confessed to the charge in the cross
petition, and separation was thereupon
awarded to Campbell.
The sensational affair between Mrs.
Campbell and McCabe was only touch :
ed upon. McCabe's name was not
mentioned at all. The question OF
property was under discussion. Mrs.
Campbell testified that Campbell took
both of her diamond rings from her
the night that he found her with Nc
Cabe.
on the contrary Campbell stated that
he took but one ring her engagement
ring. The question Of property was
threshed out at some length Mrs.
Campbell wants one-half. while Camp
bell does not wish to give her anything.
The court took that part of the case
under advisement after granting
Campbell the decree.
In reality the trial was but mere
formal matter. 1t was understood that
Mrs. Campbell was willing for her hus-
band to have the decree, and that she
brought up the case 50 as to have 1t
settled. In the cross bill filed by
Campbell the story of McCabe and his
wife was not mentioned. Friends OF
the contesting parties have been trying
right along to have that left out of the
case when it came to trial, and they
practically succeeded. Had not the
question over the rings arisen and the
place at which Campbell is charged
with having taken them from his wife,
nothing would have been said OF the
affair at all in the trial.
Judge Dana will give down deci-
sion shortly with reference to the
division of property.

OFFICE HIGHLY PRIzEO.
State senatorship in New York Worth
From $4,000 to 100000.

Washington, May 21.-Some additional
inside light was thrown on insurance
methods in New York today by Repre-
sentative James A. Goulden Of that
state, before the house committee on
judiciary considering the Ames bill for
the regulation OF insurance in the Dis
trict of Columbia. Mr.. Goulden is gen
eral agent of the Penn Mutual Life IN
surance company in New York
Why" he said, 1T was a well con-
ceded fact that to be a senator at Al
bany was worth anywhere from $50. 600
to 100000 a year and that the money
came largely from insurance companies.
This is no secret. Every New York
man knows it. I know it. I know it
we'll"
Touching on the subject of campaign
contributions Mr.. Goulden said that his
company had been coerced into giving
$4,000 to a national campaign COM
mittee in 1896. He did not say which
campaign committee received the money
but remarked that the same thing was
tried in 1900 and 1904, but without sue
cess, owing to the firm stand taken by
Mr.. PIimpton of Massachusetts, one of
the directors who declared that every
director who voted for such contribu-
ton would be held personally liable for
the amount.
The hearing on the Ames bill closed
with the testimony of Mr. GOulden,

SUBSIDY SIDETRACKED.
No Chance of Passing shipping Bill at
This Session.

Washington, May 21-The postoffice
appropriation bill viii take care of the
ocean service in the manner provided
by the ship subsidy bill which passed
the senate but apparently is sidetracked
in the house. The senate committee on
postofices and post roads, believing
that there is no chance for the ship
ping bill to pass at this session has
taken from that measure this subsidy
provision:
From a port of the Pacific coast OF
the United States via Hawaii and the
Samoan islands to Australasia on steam
ships of the United States of not less
than 16 knots speed for service once in
three weeks at a maximum compensa-
ton not exceeding $217, 600 a year in ad-
dition to the compensation now pro-
vided, under the existing contract for
ocean mail service between this coun-
try and foreign ports"
Under the shipping bill there were
eleven routes subsidized but the Oceanic
service Is the only one in existence
that the committee says that absolute
ly demands at this time compensation
in addition to that provided by existing
contracts.
The. committee expects to conclude its
consideration of the bill by Tuesday
next and report 1t to the senate.

NEW TREATY SIGNED.
1t Regulates the Distribution of the
Rio Grande Waters.

Washington, May 21.-Secretary Root
for the United States and Ambassador
Casasus for the Mexican government,
today signed q treaty regulating the
use of the waters of the Rio Grande
which, if approved by the senate viii
remove what has been for 20 years past
a source of friction in the relations OF
the two countries.
For almost a century the Mexicans
living along the lower river have made
large use of its waters for the purpose
of irrfgating their lands But IN re-
cent years private companies on the
upper waters in the United States have.
by the construction of wing dams. dl-
Eerted a large part of the water tOsthis
side Of the river. The MexicanS have
preferred claims for the damage sus-
tained but so far without success. Nov
the plans of the reclamation service
have made it certain that practically
all Of the water will be retained on
American soil unless some proper
scheme of division can be arranged. The
construction of the 81 900. coo dam across
the Rio Grande at Engel, New Mexico,
brought the matter to a climax and
led to negotiations between the two
treaty signed today.
The underlying principle of the con-
ventiOn is the recognition of the com
mon law right of the Mexicans to the
use of a fair share of the waters of the
river, but as the United States govern
ment IS put to the entire expense CT
building the great dam and the canals
the Mexican share is only a fractional
proportion of the whole flow. It is es
timated that the impounded waters zyili
suffice to irrigate about 200 900 acres of
the otherwise arid land and it is stipu-
lated that Of this total 1000 acre feet
of water which is to make arabic about
% 600 acres of land, will be delivered on
the Mexican side of the border each
year. For its part, the Mexican gov
ernment guarantees the United States
government against any suit for liabiIi-
ty on account of claims of individual
Mexicans who have so far suffered
through the diversion of water
Opposition to the treaty is expected
on the part of some of the western sen
ators who express the belief that either
the United States is entitled to all of
the water without compensation in view
of the great expenses to which II has
been put by by work of constructing the
irrigating dams and canals or that If
the Mexican right is to be recognized
at all its title should be purchased out
right by a cash payment

LIKELY TO DISAGREE.
House Probably VIII Ask for a Confer
ence on the Rate Bill.

Washington. May 21.-Chairman Hep
burn of the house committee on inter
state and foreign commerce has called
an informal meeting of his committee
for tonight to consider the railroad rate
bill This is in accordance with the
plan announced Saturday that when
the bill reaches the house it will be al
lowed to lie on the speakers table until
some program has been outlined for its
consideration. AS the measure was re-
ported by the unanimous vote OF the
Hepburn committee, these members, re-
gardless of party alignment, win be
called into the conference.
AS yet there is no Indication that the
measure will be accepted as the senate
passed it. That will be one Of the con
siderations of the conference tonight
The judgment is that the house viii be
asked to disagree to the senate amend
ments with a request of the latter body
for a conference

ted Near Canal Zone.
L. s. Marines Are Being Ship
ped to Guantanamo, Cuba.
TO BE IN READINESS
To Suppress Any Disturbance
That Manifests Itself.
Trouble Makers Are Given No
tice of What to Expect.

Washington. May 21.-Although an
official statement to that effect can not
be had it is known that the marines now
being shipped on the cruiser Columbia
at League Island, Pa. are bound pri-
marily for Guantanamo, Cuba, there to
be kept in readiness for any emergency
that may arise on the isthmus Of Pana-
ma.
The elections that will take place may
be accompanied by revolutionary dis
orders; in fact certain inquiries that
have been directed to Governor Magoon
by discontented party leaders have been
followed by threats of an uprising
against the AIpdor administration.
These have led Secretaries Root and
Taft to serve notice on the malcontents
that no such manifestation will be per-
mitted anywhere near the canal zone,
or at any place where the peace of the
zone may be threatened. To give effect
to this notice the navy will have a suffi-
c1ent force O. marines on either side of
the isthmus to maintain order.

Opposition Of Presbyterians to Sunday
Funerals Is Approved.

Des Moines. Ia, May 21@The
Presbyterian general assembly in an
nual session here, today unanimously
adopted a resolution calling on the
Presbyterian churches of America to
raise 100000 for the relief of the
Francisco disaster. The third Sunday
in June or as soon thereafter as pos
sible, is the date fixed for taking col
lection in every church.
The committee on bills and over
lures submitted its first report today,
recommending action on several inn
portant issues. In each case the ac-
ton of the assembly followed the
recommendation by the committee of
which Retiring Moderator J. D. Moffat
is chairman. The action of the assem-
bly, follows:
On the overture of the presbytery
of Freeport, Ill, requesting that the
journals of the assembly refrain from
printing advertising of proprietary
medicines containing alcohol. the as
sembly deprecates the publication of
such advertisements but takes no ac-
ton because the specific overture does
not apply to journals of the assent bly,.
On the overture of the presbytery of
Topeka, Kan, protesting against Sun
day funerals, the assembly disapprOves
all work on the Sabbath and requests
all ministers and members to aid in
diminishing Sunday funerals, except
where absolutely necessary.
On the overture of the presbytery of
Boulder, Col, asking the creating OF a
society on applied Christianity" the
assembly takes no action.
Forty-five presbyteries submitted
overtures on common worship and
forms of service.
The committee recommends that
these all be laid on the table to be
taken up when the report on services
and forms IS reached.
