HUSBAND
IS FAITHLESS
Wife of Lucius L. Long,
Wealthy Lumber Dealer,
Sues Him for Divorce
A RIVAL

Lucius L. Long, president Of the
Phoenix Lumber Company must de-
fend himself in the divorce court
against imposing array Of allega-
tions OF extreme cruelty and fafthless-
ness included in an action instituted
yesterday by his wife. Flora. Mrs
Longs recital OF her domestic woes is
extended and the details are supplied
without consideration for the feelings
of the defendant.
For eight months past. it is set
forth in the complaint. Mr.. and Mrs
Long have not dwelt together, the
husband occupying apartments at the
Hotel Hatton, the wife remaining at
the Seven Oaks. This undomestic con-
dition. alleges the complainant, Is not
the result OF her husbands cruelty
alone, but IS the natural outcome OF
the fact that for the last three years
Long has been bestowing his affec-
tions upon one Eleanor Schnabel, cpl
sodes with this young woman marking
trips the defendant has taken 10 Los
Angeles. Chicago and Kansas City.
Mrs. Long AYERS that she has suf-
fered not only great mental distress,
but physical pain. During the month
of December. 1896, she asserts, her
husband became unusually vicious and
on one occasion he seized her by the
throat and, when she threatened to
summon assistance. he relieved her OF
the necessity by throwing open the
door and making such disturbance
that the entire household was aroused.
This act. Mrs Long alleges. was COM
mitted for the purpose of humiliating
her In the eyes OF other guests Mrs
Long further AYERS that her husband
often referred to her as a woman Of
low type and refused to accompany her
in public.
Regarding the finances Of her hus-
band. Mrs. Long says that, in addition
TO his salary as president of the lum-
Der concern named. he holds fourth
interest In the business, which she ap-
praises as being worth 100000. and
is interested in other money-making
enterprises. He has property at Clay
and Davis streets and $1S.5OO in bank,
and these. with stocks and bonds, yield
him $2500 a month.
Mrs. Long, who married her husband
in this city on April %. 1890. asks that
he be restrained from divesting him
self OF his wealth until such time as
a satisfactory settlement with her shall
have been made. All of the property
is community property, alleges Mrs
Long. and she asks that the court de-
cree that one-half OF it is rightfully
hers.

JURORS ACT ENDS
DESPATCH CASE
w. Sullivan Drinks Liquor
With Two Witnesses and
Judge Annuls the Trial
SUSPECTS EMBRACERY

Proceedings in the steamer Despatch
case were brought TO an abrupt close
at the opening of the afternoon session
yesterday, when the trial was discon-
tinued and Juror w. Sullivan, together
with James Spencer and Robert Nc
Lay, chief witnesses for the defense.
were ordered by Judge Graham TO APP
and explain their action in drinking
together in saloon during the noon
intermission of court.
No inkling of the sudden turn af-
fairs were to take was given out until
court was called to order, and then
Stephen Costello, OF counsel for James
Mitchell, who is suing the steamship
company for $500 damages for the
death OF his son. arose and asked the
court to continue the hearing OF the
case. II have positive information" said
Costello. that one Of the twelve jurors
sitting in this case conversed in a
friendly manner with two Of the wit
nesses for the defense and that he was
seen drinking with them during the
noon hour today"
James Mitchell, the plaintiff. then
took the stand and told how he had
entered q saloon at the corner OF
Steiner and California streets about
half an hour after court had closed
and that Sullivan. Spencer and Mckay
took a drink together and conversed
about a book carried by Sullivan.
The juror was questioned at length
by Judge Graham, as well as the at
torneys for both sides. They attempt
ed to explain the occurrence as a
casual meeting.
Spencer, who was the chief engineer
on board the vessel at the time of the
accident over which the suit has been
brought, was called in and told story
IN hot NV Sullivan n
An effort made to locate McLay, the
third person seen in the saloon, to get
his explanation was unsuccessful and
after considerable argument by oppos-
ing counsel the jury with the excep-
tion of Sullivan was discharged and
the records of the case ordered thrown
out.
The attorneys for both the prosecu-
tion and defense appeared unwilling to
allow the case to be continued and the
matter of responsibility for the addi-
tional costs incurred by the mistrial
was argued at some length. For a
time. in view of the difficulty arising
from this new point, 1t looked as
though the suit might be allowed to
continue, but Judge Graham brought
the case to a sudden close by saying
IF Juror Sullivan has not committed
a wrong he has at least been very in
discreet The case is ordered thrown
out of court and the jury with the ex-
ception of Sullivan is discharged"
Sullivan and Spencer, who was pres
ent in the courtroom. were served with
summons to appear in court at 10
o'clock Monday morning and subpoena
instructing McLay, the third partici-
pant, In the forbidden conversation, to
do likewise, was issued and turned
over to the Sheriff to be served. No
ruling was made as TO who would be
required to pay the costs of the un-
completed trial and this point probably
will be touched in the new suit which
the plaintiff will Immediately file
