New York, March 25.-Mme. Emma
Eames. the opera singer, who, according
to a story published Sunday morning, has
applied for a decree og absolute divorce
from her artist husband Julian Story,
in the supreme court of this department,
denied herself to callers yesterday, and
would make no statement regarding the
proceedings. Her friends, however, de-
clared they were not surprised at the re-
ported action. Nine. Eames has not been
living with her husband for some time,
and it is known they have not consid-
cred themselves temperamentally COM
patible.
A Philadelphia dispatch published here
yesterday says Mr.. Storey left for New
York Sunday. In speaking of the pro-
ceedings he is quoted as saying:
Madame has the artistic temperament
hugely, but cannot understand it. There
must be some mistake | am entirely in
nocent of anything Nine Eames brings
against me. or course, have known
of this action for some days. My lawyer
made answer for me-"
Emma Eames was married to Julian
Storey in London in 1881, two years after
her debut at the grand opera in Paris
in Romeo and Juliette." She was born

SOLDIERS SECURE
EXTRA CARTRIDGES
Government Property Sold to
Brownsville Junk Dealers
GUNS DEFACED AND KEPT
Corporal Ryan Tells Senate Some New
Facts In Neutrality-suspicious.
Denies the Testimony
of Experts.

Washington. March 25.-That soldiers
invariably were able to secure extra car
trdges and sometimes had extra rifles as
WELL was ascertained today from Will
liam Ryan, corporal in Company D, Twen-
ty-sixth infantry, during the Brownsville
investigation before the Senate commit
tee on military affairs. Ryan was al
Brownsville prior to the coming of the
negro soldiers of the Twenty-fifth in
fantry. He was serving as the artificier
under the quartermaster sergeant, at
whose orders he said he sold 1000 rounds
OF government ammunition to junk
dealer in Brownsville Under the same
mans orders he said that he defaced the
chambers of six Krag-Jorgensen rifles
which had been secured in the Philippines,
with four others, as surplus guns.
The defacing was done and the guns
held out at the time the order was issued
for the surrender of all the ISrag type of
rifles. He claimed that he did not know
what had become of these guns In reply
to a number of questions he declared that
he did not consider that he had done
wrong in aiding in the sale of the govern
ments property. The cross-examination
of Ryan took up nearly all the afternoon
session, but few additional facts were
brought out.
When the session adjourned for the day
Thomas Taylor former member of Com
pany B, Twenty-fifth infantry. was on the
stand. The expert examination of shells
picked up in Brownsville is declared to
show that his gun was used in firing
eleven OF these shells. Taylor denied that
his gun had been secured since his COM
pany left FIT. Niobraria, a month prior TO
the shooting.

SEES HOPEFUL SIGNS
IN CANAL WORK
REPRESENTATIVE SCOTT OF KAN.
sAS RETURNS FROM lSTHMUs.
WORK MAY BE COMPLETED IN
SEVEN YEARS.

Washington, March 25.-(SpeciaL) REP
resenatiye Scott of Kansas, who has just
returned from the isthmus, speaks hope
FUZZY of the canal work. He says:
There probably are those who have
honestly doubted whether the canal
could be built within any reasonable
limit of time and cost. I belieev 1 am
warranted in saying there are at least
forty-iive members of Congress who will
not be of that number henceforth.
1.-THE men on the work believe the
canal will be completed IN seven years,
and that the cost will be far less than
is now generally anticipated. That hope
may be realized If present conditions con-
tinue. The chief OF these is the labor con-
dition
There are &c, 900 men on the works now.
When all the machinery is installed that
has been ordered or can be used this
number must be swelled to at least $4,000
TO assemble and hold for seven or eight
years such an army as that is gigantic
task, altogether and immeasurably the
greatest task that yet remains for the
men upon whose shoulders has been laid

GIRARD CONDEMNS
LAWLESS OUTBREAK.
Mass Meeting Held BY Representative
Citizens on Shooting of Unoffend-
ing Negroes.

Columbus, Ga, March 25.-(Special)-A
mass meeting, largely attended by repre-
sentative citizens, at Girard was held to-
night, at which resolutions were adopted
condemning in strong terms the lawless-
ness in that city Saturday night, when
five persons were wounded, and an unof-
Tending negro was shot to death. George
c. Porter presided. The City Council was
asked for reward for the capture of the
party who shot down the two negroes,
and the Russell county grand jury, now
in session at Seal, was asked to investi-
gate the occurrence. At the same time a
mass meeting of negroes was in progress
in another section of the city, at which
resolutions in behalf of law and order
were adopted
