M'KEE DIVORCE
Au0iher Sensational Affair in Wbich a Former American
 is Interested
HEARING WAS IN PARIS

Paris, April S.-The hearing of the divorce suit brought by Mrs Mo- kee, formerly Mrs Hugh Tevis, against A. Hart Mckee, her hus- band, was continued to-day. The first hearing took place March 4, and Mrs Mckee through counsel de- scribed alleged indignities to which she had been subjected by her hus- band. MT Mckee retailiated two weeks later by bringing scandalous counter charges against his wife through Maitre Labori.
 To-day Maitre Barboux, on behalf of Mrs Mckee, conducted the plead ing in rebuttal. The Italian noble man with whom it is alleged Mrs Mckee had improper relations at a chateau at aVrennes was identified as the Marquis Guglieni. M Bar boux denied MT McKee's allegation and offered to produce testimony from physicians to show that the wife's physical condition at the time specified was such as to disprove the charges. He declared that the real object of the defense was not to furnish information to the French court, but to besmirch Mrs McKee's reputation in America and secure the publication there of certain let ters she had written to her husband.

ELIOT IS GREETED.
Harvard Students at Chicago Give
 Him Send Off.

Chicago, April S.-Four hundred Harvard graduates met last night at the Congress hotel and greete dtheir president, Charles w. Eliot, with a fusilade of Harvard yells, songs and cheers.
 The occasion was the arrival of Eliot for a weeks stay ;n Chicago, and incidentally the fifty-first annual dinner of the Chicago Harvard club.
 One or two speakers had been given place on the programme, but to President Eliot fell more than a lions share of the honors. He re- sponded by making two addresses, one after the other, and the result was a riot or Harvard enthusiasm such as Chicago Harvard men sel. dom have seen. The presidents first address was largely historical re- view of the progress of the institu- tion during the thirty-nine years of his presidency.
 Tt is not material development that represents the university's high est achievements in the last forty years," he said. Tt is :he building up of the university as a great factor in education. Harvard is now not only the oldest institution of learn ing in the United States, but it is the only university in the country or ganized on true university basis"
 President Eliot's second address was in light vein. and consisted chiefly of "reminiscences of a more personal character.

HIS NAME IS DILLON.
Man Who Killed Constable Was {
 Former English Policeman.

Montreal, April S.--Examination by the police of the papers of John Smith, the man who on Monday held the police at bay for five hours, killing Constable Shea and wounding Chief Detective Carpenter and Con- stable Focoult and who was himself wounded by the police, show that his right name is John Dillon and that he is native of Ireland. He served for seven years in the Royal Irish constabulary and afterwards in the Cheshire (England) constabulary. While on the latter force he shot a burglar who was resisting arrest but was discharged by the court, which held the shooting justifiable. Dillon came to New York and on October IF, 1888, was declared a citizen of the United States. Later he went to Boston and from that city came to Montreal. One of the papers found in Dillon's room was in the handwriting of the prisoner and contained a digest of the English criminal law regarding the right to take life in self defense. Annota- tions in blue pencil upon this docu- ment show that d'.-ins the time Dillon was holding the police Mon- day he got this document and con- suited 1t.

THE JESUP LIBRARY
Exercises Were Held al Vest port Governor and Other
 State Officials There.

Westport, April S.-Formai dedi- cation and the presentation of the Jesup Memorial library, given to the town of Westport by the late Mor- ris K. Jesup of New York in mem ory of his parents occurred this afternoon. The exercises included the prayer of dedication by the Rev Warren P. Landers, pastor of the Westport Congregational church, of which MT Jesup was a member; the presentation of the library building to the town by Mrs Jesup, in be- half of her late husband; presenta- tion address by John E. Parsons of New York, personal friend of MT Jesup; the speech of acceptance by William H. Burr, in behalf of the trustees, and an address by Govern or Rollin s. Woodruff, the exercises being concluded with a benediction pronounced by the Rev Kenneth Mackenzie, rector of Memorial church of the Holy Trinity, Vest port.
 The library building, which stands on the corner of Main and State streets, Is of brick, marble and barra granite and was erected at a cost of about $75,000. it's construc- tion within and without suggesting at the same time artistic eXecu- tion, to high degree, and durabil- ity. The entrance and the stair ways are entirely of marble, selected for it's purity of color. The foyer Is also done in marble and leads through massive doors of antique oak into the library room. This latter is trimmed in antique oak, it's attractiveness being further en- hanced by two handsome mantles, one at each end of the room. The castings and pillars of antique oak making striking contrast with the pale yellow of the ceiling. The mantles and cornices are all hand work, the carvings from original designs and hand cut. The places usually devoted to mirrors in the mantles are given up to bronze tab lets bearing appropriate inscriptions. An auditorium occupies the whole of the upper floor, the woodwork of which is finished in mahogany and white enamel giving it an i'm posing appearance. This room is provided with a stage fitted with two ante rooms. The building will be steam heated and electrically lighted.
 The surrounding grounds are laid out is keeping with the general scheme of the whole.
 The library was begun in the spring of 1906 and completed about a month ago. About that time MT Jesup died and the dedication was until to-day.

President Roosevelt Sends a Let. ter 10 ihe Department of
 Justice To-Day
IGNORED THE LAW

Washington, April 2S.--President
 Roosevelt to-day made public his let ter of April 2nd to the attorney gen.
 eral, directing proceedings by injunc- tion to compel certain railroads of the
 south to furnish equal accommoda- tions to white and negro passengers.
 The text of the presidents letter is as follows:
 To the Department of Justice:
 q forward herewith the report of the interstate commerce commission containing it's order of June 27, 1907, and the report of the failure of the railroad company to obey this order under date of March 26, 1908, together with letter of the commis- sion of April l, 1908. It appears that the Nashville, Chattanooga and St Louis Railway Co has not com piled with the order of the commits sion to furnish the same facilities tc colored passengers paying first class fare that are furnished to white pas sengers paying first class fare. From time to time various complaints have been made to me by reputable color ed people to the effect that the ac- commodations furnished to colored persons on certain railways are filthy and inadequate compared to the same accommodations furnished to white passengers paying the same fare. The commission has taken what is unquestionably the right ground:
 That where separate accommodations are provided for white and colored passengers the accommodations for colored passengers shall be as good as those furnished to white passen- gers for the same money. In other words while there is nothing in the law which forbids separate accommo- dations these accommodations must be equal. This principle of equality of accommodations is set out explicit ly in various state laws. For instance, the code of the state of Alabama pro- vides that there shall be equal but separate accommodations for the white and colored races by providing two or more passenger cars for each passenger train or by dividing the passenger cars by partitions
 "The action of the commission has simply been to insist that the ac- commodations be equal in convent ence and comfort for the same money wherever the separation is made. In this particular case where the rail- way has neglected to comply with the order of the commission it is import. ant that compliance with this order be immediately obtained. I suggest that you proceed to enforce the order by injunction proceedings, unless in your judgment some other course is preferable.

THE LIQUOR FIGHT
Saloon Men Routed In Many Places in IllinOiS-Win in
 Large Towns.

Chicago, April S.-The great liquor contest in Illinois has resulted in drawn battle with the saloons winning decisively in most of the larger cities, but losing in scores of smaller ones, LOLA saloons being voted out of existence.
 The returns as collected by town ships are even more impressive from the prohibition viewpoint, 32S town ships or more than three-fourths of the total number, being closed to the saloon. Only by winning in the larger cities did the liquor interests save themselves from complete rout.
 Where the "grog shop" was not an economic asset in the city gov ernment the prohibitionists had the advantage. Where financial ques- tions entered largely they lost.
 The saloons were on the defensive. Where they win they have nothing but what they had before and the losses were clear loss.
 Returns from the 1,200 town ships of the state are incomplete and it is not possible to state with ex- actness how many saloons will close their doors thirty days hence as a result of yesterdays balloring. The figures available place the number at over 1000, being for he most part in towns which had from five to twenty-five saloons each.
