driving with her. Mrs. Batonyi has
been invited to but few social func-
TONS but has been frequently at the
Casino and the Bennett Club. Her
husband has not been seen to any eS-
tent in Newport, spending his time at
the farm, He has received few, IL
any, invitations.
1t has been evident during the sum
mer that Mrs. Batonyi has preferred to
go into what society she was permitted
TO enjoy, even If her husband was not
Included in the invitations. She ap-
parently has made a. studied effort to
appear as often and as prominently
as possible without her husband until
now. the husband has decided to accept
the decision and leave his wife.
There has been another Noticeable
fact during the sumner. Mrs. Batonyfs
daughter. Mrs. Arthur Scott Burden

of the summer at Newport, but not
once has she been seen with her moth

Batonyi, the professional whip, who
married Mrs Burke Roche. daughter
Of Frank Work, yesterday. departed
from Two-Mile Corner Farm, where he
and his wife have been living, and it
Is understood that he Is not to return.
Mrs. Batonyi, 1t is said has yielded
before the uncompromising stand taken
by her father and children against
her second husband and will give him
up In order. to secure the Inheritance
by her daughter and sons of the estate
of their grandfather.
Mrs. lBatonyi, when asked Tonight
II her husband had left permanently,
replied that he was in New York on
business. and further than that. she
would say nothing. 1t is known. how
ever. that Mrs. Batonyi will go to-mor-
row to New York to see her father,
and this In itself is regarded as sig
niflcant,. as she has not been in the
habit OF consulting Mr. Work on any
matter, personal or otherwise, since the
public announcement of her marriage.
During the last summer Mrs Ba-
tonyi has been seen in Newport very
frequently. but always without her
husband. Occasionally she had one

WILL REVIVE PLAN
FOR CONSOLIDATION
Many Members of Council Favor
Boiling for Head OF Both
Departments.
Departments.

The Board of Aldermen Will make
the third attempt in as many weeks to
secure a working quorum for meet
ing tomorrow night, and with con-
gested docket the members may still
find it necessary to order an adjourn
ed session. There is large amount
of old business to be considered, along
with many new matters.
| The plan looking to the election
of a City Engineer. and defining the
duties of Colonel Cutshaw, in a con-
sulting capacity, will bring forth a
variety of opinions. AS a compromise
measure the Board will be urged to
still take up the advisabiity of con-
lsolidating the Engineering and Water
Departments. with Superintendent
Boiling in charge. and providing for
the election of chief assistant in
each.
Can Direct both.
Tt is argued that Mr.. Boiling can
give the best results in each depart
ment, and that his ability, so we'll
established. will enable him to serve
the city as faithfully in tho depart
ments as he has done heretofore in
one.
At the request of an Alderman, CITY
II
an ordinance which does not take into
consideration the consolidation idea.
The plan is to define the duties of
Colonel Cutshaw and to elect regu-
lar engineer to have active super-
vision over the work of the depart
ment.
| AS previously mentioned in The
/ Times-Dispatch, If this movement sue
coed. strong effort will be made tc
elect Building Inspector Beck to work
! with Colonel Cutshaw.
Though the proposition is apparently
dead, however, there is a desire to
bring up again the question of merg-
may have wider latitude and authority.
Committee Meetings.
Only two committee meetings are
scheduled to take place at the City
Hall to-day. A subcommittee on
Streets will meet this evening at s:15
o'clock. at s o'clock tonight tho Com
mittee on Water will consider matters
pertaining to the settling basin, which
is nearing completion, and all mem
bers are urged to attend.
Some Idea of the work ACCOMPLISHED

funds for better navigation facilities
will probably be given at a meeting
