the past six months two divorce suits
have been filed by Helen Curry against
her husband, Thomas Curry, and both
of them have been dismissed by the
plaintiff. The first suit was filed in
July, the wife claiming that her hus-
band had treated her very cruelty, and
that ON July 10 he struck her in the
face and drew blood. At that time she
asked alimony in the sum of $1,000, and
an injunction against her husband re-
straining him from disposing of his sa-
loon property in the west end of the
city The injunction had the effect of
closing his saloon. Not long thereafter
the wife had the suit dismissed and
went back to live with her husband.
In September Mrs. Curry again filed
suit for divorce. claiming that her hus-
band had begun his cruel treatment
again. and specifying an instance in
which he had struck her. Yesterday
she again cames forward and had the
suit dismissed.

LIBERALS GREAT
GAINS CONTINUE
GLASGOW IN RANKS OF THE
WINNERS
Six Members Of the Bslfour Ministry
Unseated-Two Unionists Re-
turned by Cambridge
University
Py Associated Press.

Ry Associated Press.
LONDON, Jan. 1S.-Rural England
is now being polled and is returning
Liberals to parliament with the same
enthusiasm as already has been dis
played by the towns. Few additional
returns are received, but the pollings
in rural towns are not known generally
until the following day, but those re-
ported show persistent Liberal and
Labor gains.
Glasgow has gone strongly Liberal,
the seven contests being marked by
four Liberal and one Labor gain, while
the only two Unionists left in the rep
resentation are free traders. John
Morley, secretary of state for India,
was returned for Montrose by good
majority
Cambridge university returned two
Unionist tariff reformers, S. II. Butcher
and Mr.. Rawlinson.
Lancashire appears to be going as
strongly Liberal as did Manchester,
the three results already received there
recording two Liberal and one Labor
gain. Among those unseated in Lam
cashire are Lord Stanley, former post
master general, by the Laborite, w. T..
Wilson. with a majority of 512S, and G.
a. Cripps by Fl. Nuttal, Liberal and
free trader, with a majority Of 2S24.
Taken altogether the returns, though
less sensational than those previously
reported, are most disastrous from the
Unionist standpoint. No less than six
members of the Balfour ministry have
been unseated. Since the elections
opened the Unionists have gained only
three seats, while the Ministerialists
have gained 1872 seats. The seats up to
the present are distributed as follows:
Liberals 2O2 Unionists 81, Laborites
35, Natonalsts so.
The continued Liberal triumphs made
the results at Birmingham yesterday
seem all the more remarkable and lend
color to the contention of the Lib
erals that they were due exclusively
to the force of Mr.. Chamberlains per-
sonality and to local influences and that
they had no connection whatever with
the fiscal problem.
Mr.. Chamberlain himself is evidently
undaunted. Speaking at Smethwick
near Birmingham, tonight, he as,
serted that there had been fair fight
at Birmingham on the question OF
fiscal reform. He added that there were
two remedies for the existing socia
problems, Socialism and tariff reform
preferred Socialism, but when the
quack remedies of the present govern
ment had failed there would be op'
portunity for his hobby and mo OBJ
struction could prevent its taking
root"
Mr.. Balfour and Sir Henry Campbell
Bannerman arrived on the same trair
at Inverness, Scotland, today, to fulfil

dicted for the new government a yer!

AVALANCHE BURIES TRACK
Twenty Feet of Debris Covers Three

SANTA BARBARA. Jan. 1s.-An
avalanche of dirt fell from the hill
above the new Southern Pacific cut
off at Benham station yesterday after
noon and buried the track under twen-
ty feet Of dirt for a distance of 300 feet.
The cave-in occurred at point about
eighteen miles south of this city at
one of the most dangerous parts of
the Los Angeles-Santa Barbara rail-
road division.
The present cave-in does not affect
the main line in any way, as it covers
only a new track that has been run
through a deep cut inside of the old
track. Being softened by rain the out
er edge of this bank became loosened
and slipped down, burying the rails for
a long distance.
