DESERTS FAMILY OF FOURTEEN.
After 45 Years Together, Man Leaves
 For Younger Woman.

PITTSBURG, May l3.-Having lived for forty-eight years with a man to whom she never was married, and bear. ing him thirteen children, all living, only to be deserted for a younger and prettier woman, Mrs. Sarah A.. Cass asked Judge Frazer, in common pleas court, this morning, if he thought the man in the ease would hate her for su- ing him.
 The woman told her story in mat. ter-cf.fact manner, stating that some time ago Cass decided he would marry another woman, and did 80. Subse- quently this woman departed, and has not been heard from since.
 Sarah Cass said she was first married when she was l7 years old, but her hus' band deserted her, and never returned. Some time after his disappearance, on the suggestion of Cass, they came to America: he promising to marry her. Later, she said, he told her marriage was not necessary.
 Judge Frazer ordered the man to pay the woman s2 week.

F|RELESS
 LOCOMOTIVES
BOILERS FILLED WITH STEAM AT
 LOCAL POWER STATIONS
Value of tho New Invention About Yards and Factories Almost Inestim- able-Not Practicable for Uninter- rupted Service.

NEW YORK, May 13.-Now it is the freless locomotive It has been but a short time since the country was all wrought up over the fireless cooker, an invention which the army is daily put ting into practical uses. The treless locomotice is also practical, according to report from Special Agent Captain Godfrey l.. Garden of the revenue cut ter service, writing from Berlin, of an invention he thinks would be of great service in the United States.
 Simplicity, ingenuity and economy characterize this new invention, accord. ing to Captain Garden. It is but recent. ly that locomotive men in America learned of it.
 The freless locomotive is said to be not only success. but practically the only type of motor power which can be recommended for plants where the question of fire preeaution is almost a first consideration, as, for example, pow der mills, cotton plants, wharves, and other places where the presence of an ordinary type of locomotive or even electric power prejudices the insurance.
 As the name implies, the locomotive is freless, having no fire box. In gen. cral appearance it resembles the ordin- ary locomotive, minus the fire box, fun nel and sundry other attachments. The base of supply power for it is the boiler of some local power station. At this local power station the tank of the loco motive is filled with steam, and on this steam supply tho locomotive will run from four to five hours, doing ordinary switching work. The construction is simple, the most important part being the receiver containing the water, which is to be heated by mixing it with steam from the local power house.
 It is true the locomotive cannot be used for uninterrupted railway service, but it is pronounced extremely valuable about yards and factories, being abso- lutely devoid Of the possibility of en- dangering plants through sparks or fire. Besides, the smoke nuisance is elimin- ated.
 Special Agent Garden says the fire. less locomotive is in much demand among European firms. He believes it could be used to great advantage on this side of the Atlantic, at various govern ment plants and private establishments.
 One of the advantages mentioned for the freless locomotive is that only one man is required to run it, thus saving the expense of fireman. Special Agent Garden says he had occasion to ride on a fireless locomotive and it's simplic- ity can be understood from the fact that in tho cab the mechanism consisted merely of throttle bar, reversing geai and brake.

STOCK MARKET REVIEW.
Trading Torpid Following Moderate
 Early Selling.

New York, April 20.- Business in the stock market made a poor start to-day after the triple holiday. This was partly due to foreign markets re- maining closed, according to custom
 for Easter. Monday while in this country the Boston stock market was closed with the effect of some sub straction of business from New York The market was exceeding torpid and and the professional room traders had difficulty in effecting any movement of prices. They professed some en- couragement over evidence of buying orders at the outset, supposed to have accumulated from outside sources in brokers offices during the holiday per iod. Whatever the source of the de- mand that advanced prices within the first hour 1t was soon exhausted and stagnation followed. The subsequent movement was trivial and halting at all times. Developments bearing on the financial situation were llmost equally unlmportant. U. S. Steel fail ed to benefit from tho reaiflrmatlon of ron pElttS, NIlltll NHS uftlutu pn dl- ter the last stock exchange session last week, Equally ineffective were "um- OTIS in circulation of heavy orders for steel rails soon to be placed '. $. Steel in spite of the rumOrs was a heavy spot in the market and it's drop ping tendency was of considerable sentimental effect All of -he metal
 ndustrials were more or less depress- ed, An item that helped to sustain carly prices was the news of the re- sumption of mining operations to-day by many thousands of soft coal min CTS in consequence of the settlement of their labor dispute. The New
 York Traction stocks were reactionary after the recent sharp gains and the reaction was aggravated by some new regulations of the public service com mission for seating passengers on some of the lines of the company. A sharp upturn in the wheat market was an unfavorable influence on stocks The bank statement published during

Western Unions break in the opin- ion of some of those on the floor, was due to desire to liquidate for what the market would bring, rather than q short sale, based on fears that the strike would be resumed by the opera tors, in accordance with demands which are being drawn up by ono fac tlon of the men. It often happens that with an inactive stock like this there is little support, and such pool support as is offered will often be withdrawn when the character of the selling orde' is seen.
