DISPUTE OVER REFINERY.
Two Claimants Fighting for Control
of Chanute Plant.

Chanute, Kan, Jan. "A peculiar
situation exists in regard to the Cha
mute Austin Refining company, located
a mile south Of Chanute It has two
owners.
A few weeks ago the refinery was sold
to Charles E. Martin of the Kansas and
Texas Oil company. one of the largest
Independent properties of the field. Upon
making his purchase. Mr.. Martin an
nOunced that the refinery would be
completed at once and started in opera
ton. Monday representatives. of the
Norton Oil and Gas company went to
Erie, the county seat of Neosho county.
and placed on record a deed for the
property, which they claim was execu-
ted last fail. The Norton people claim
that they contracted for the plant last
fall. and that the deed was placed in
escrow, to be delivered as soon as they
fulfilled their part of the contract,
which they say they have now done.
Mr.. Martin is in Illinois, and it is not
known what action he viii take to re-
tain the property. The Norton people
announce that they viii take up all
claims against the refinery. and viii
soon have it in operation. The tangled
situation shows among other things that
independent refineries- in Kansas are
getting to be very desirable property.

PATCH UP TRUCE.
Coreys Agree to Remain Legally Mar
ried but Live as Strangers.

Pittsburg, Pa, Jan. 9-W. Ellis
Corey, the $1,000 600 a year president of
the United States Steel corporation
has found a solution for his domestic
troubles.
For the sake of their son. Alan NJ
Corey, the steel magnate has reached
an agreement with his wife, which is
expected to mark the end of the scan
dal. The agreement was made
through the medium of mutual friends,
for Mr.. and Mrs. Corey did not meet.
There will be no reconciliation. but
by the terms of the agreement there
viii be no legal divorce. According to
the statements of friends, Mr.. and Mrs.
Corey will live apart but without a
formal settlement. The husband will
make ample provision for the support
of the wife. They will remain legally
married but that is all.
According to the friends who were
responsible for averting the scandal of
a divorce, Mabelle Gilman was not the
primary cause of the trouble between
Corey and his wife.
Apart More Than Three Years.
For over three years friends of the
two knew that such ncompaubility
existed that to all intents and purposes
they were no longer man and wife.
No blame is placed on either of them.
Tt was simply. friends say, d case of
diversity of tastes and opinions. For a
time each contemplated divorce to re-
Heve them of shackles that chafed.
That idea now has been definitely
abandoned for the reason that neither
would have the future of their son,
whom they both idOlize, clOuded by the
scandal.
While Corey was president of the
Carnegie Steel company they lived in
a handsome home formerly occupied
by United States Senator p. c. Knox
where they occasionally entertained
in quiet way. On these occasions
Mrs. Corey. unlike other society wO-
ton for publication, nor has it ever
been possible to secure her photo
graph for reproduction.
Mrs. Corey Home Body.
Corey. having achieved success in
the world of finance, desired to take
a place in society To this end he
secured for mis- wife private secre-
tary, or social pilot" that Mrs Corey
might not be afraid of making any
social errors. Then he desired to
launch her into the social whirlpool
Mrs Corey did not approve of this
nor would she consent to preside at
any functions Of magnitude.
All this prevented Corey from
mtngling as much as he desired in
society As a result he was thrown
back upon the society of his men
friends, whose invitations to dinner or
lunch at a club or hotel he could re-
turn in kind.
Three years ago the situation be-
came so acute that Mr.. Corey and his
wife found their greatest happiness
when apart. Then stories. whether
true or false no one knows, began to
reach Mrs. Corey about her husband.
Then first began the talk of divorce.
Mrs. Corey whose health is not
robust, will not make her home in
Pittsburg, but will travel much of the
time. She viii not go abroad, as she
would not care to be so far from her
son, who is at school in New York.

SOLD LIQUOR TO A BOY.
Cliff NIcCarIey Appeals From Sentence
for This Ofense.

Cliff McCariey. another Allen county
dispenser of strong drink, Is asking the
supreme court to excuse him from
Sf0a fine and a so day jail sentence
which he received for selling liquor to
s. c. Meador, a 19-year-old boy. Nc
Carley was also put under $500 bond
not to sell any more liquor.
It seems that Meador, though 10 years
of age, was married. and has a family.
The liquor seller supposed that he was
of age. but it turned out that in this
he was mistaken. MeadOr switched
around and gave the evidence to the
state which convicted AIcCarley.
