This Is part of the separation agreement
between the titled pair.

pride in order to prove that it's maintenance
was not dependent on the duchess for

the Duke and Duchess of Sutherland and
agree merely to live apart and divide the
chidren's time between the parents. The
duke had already agreed, and 1t was after
the duchess left Bowood that he and the
duchess met In Paris in the presence Of
her mother The idea then was that in
few days the children were to join the
duchess in Paris and go with her cruising
on the Valiant. her fathers yacht. but
the duke informed her that Lord Ivor their
younger son. was i'll with measles and in
f1uenza at Blenheim, whereupon she re-
turned Immediately to London. Though
she did not go TO Blenheim to see the child
she receives constant Information of his
condition.
Sunderland House. which she had dis
mantled before her departure, has now
been reopened, and the children will join
her for trip abroad when the younger
boy Is convalescent.
The duchess has been seen about more
since her return from Paris, it having been
impressed upon her that she was damag-
ing her position by withdrawing from the
public gaze. Her landolet is now seen in

DoLLIvER's ANXIOUS SEAT
His Friends Fear for His Senatorial
Safety.

DES MONIES, Iowa, January 12;-Lleu-
tenants of United States Senator J. p Dol
liver wired the latter at Chicago today to
come direct to Des Moines from Washing
ton, instead of via Fort Dodge, his home.
The message evidences the uneasiness
which Delivers friends feel over the SEN
atorial election. Notwithstanding Gov.
Cummns statement that he is not a cam
didate for the Senate against Dolliver, his
friends are openly saying that the governor
is in the hands of his friends and that he
has no obligations to DOlliver. and will act
US the developments of the situation seem
to demand. The legislature meets Monday
noon For the first time in the history of
Iow; the turning point in a United states
senatorial contest appears to hinge on the
distribution of federal patronage Several
weeks ago the Iowa congressional delega-
ton in Washington held a conference and
arranged the allotment of federal plums.
Among other things it was agreed that
NJ. ]. Tobin of Vinton. in Representative
Cousins district should be appointed
United States attorney for the district of
northern Iowa. Tobin is standpatter, and
an anti Cummins man. The Cummins or
"progressive' forces declare that federal
appontees must be in harmony with the
principles which Won at the last election in
Iowa. And they have accordingly brought
out d. c. Chase of Webster City as can
didate for the attorneyship.

district When Dolliver arrives he will find
that Chase has secured the Endorsement OF
every senator and representative In Dolli-
ver's own district. In the Iowa delegation
caucus Dolliver has the deciding vote He
will therefore. be confronted with the al
tentative of Withdrawing his promise to
Tobin or assume the attitude of opposing
not only his own entire district, but the
fourth and every state officer in es Moines.
besides several of his own colleagues at
Washington.
The Cummins forces are making the most
of an interesting situation. If Iowa stand
pat delegation in Congress will divide up
the federal patronage with the progress
sives" the Cummins senatorial candidacy
will be deferred until two years hence
when Senator Allison's term expires. If
not, it is common talk here tonight that
Cummins senatorial candidacy may be
looked for within hour after Dolliver
shall have refused to accept the terms of
the "progressives'' concerning the d.stribu-
ton Of federal patronage, and Doliver will
have a chance to accept or decline the
terms before the senatorial caucus takes
place.

PENNEWILL MAY WIN.
He Has Changed His Mind About the
Senatorship.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
WILMINGTON, Del. January Fit was
learned tonight on good authority, that
Judge James Pennewill of Dover. will most
probably agree to an election as senator.
He will not make a formal statement, but
is expected to announce his favorable atti-
tude through some friends on Monday.
This will solve the senatorial problem. and
If carried out, will insure the nomination
Of the judge on the first ballot in caucus at
Dover on Monday night
1t was authoritatively stated tonight that
the judge has changed his mind very ma
terially regarding the senatorship within
the past twenty-four hours. and is now
more favorably disposed to accept the
honor than at any previous time
AS the different republican elements in
the legislature are eager to agree on him, 1t
is believed that his nomination will be
the elimination on Monday night. This be-
lief is general and has substantial foun-
dation The anticipated outcome Is the re-
suit of strong pressure that has been made
on the judge by his friends.

man Goes to Prison.

NORFOLK, Va, January 12.-John
Smith, charged with having committed a
criminal assault Mrs. Mollie Leggett. a
white woman. in Princess Anne county,

alton court here yesterday. He was found
guilty and sentenced to serve eighteen
years in the state penitentiary.
Mrs. Leggett failed to positively identify
the negro as her assailant. The trial was
transferred from Princess Anne to Nor
folk in November because of threats to
lynch Smith in the county. A company Of
state troops took him from Norfolk to
Princess Anne. but it was deemed inadvis-
able to take the prisoner off the train.
The first trial of the case here resulted
in hung jury-ten members Of the jury,
it was said. voting for the death penalty
and two for eighteen years imprisonment.
Some members of the jury today favored
the death penalty. Attorney E. r. F..
Wells. one of those appointed by the court
to defend the accused man, will ask for a
new trial. He states that he does not think
the evidence against Smith at all conclus-
i've.
