Seeks AnnuIment Of Marriage to
the Earl Of Yarmouth.

London, Jan.-The Countess OF
Yarmouth, who was Niles Alice Thaw
OF Pittsburg, has begun proceedings
for the notification OF her marriage
with the Earl of Yarmouth. The
Countess OF Yarmouth Is q sister OF
Harry X. Thaw.
The Yarmouth case was entered in
the deit nded list for trial at the com.
Ing sittings OF the divorce court. 1t
will be heard In chambers.
1t Is generally known here that
ever since the killing OF Stanford
White in New York the sister OF
Harry X. Thaw has not been at
peace with her titled husband and
rumors OF their coming separation
have been rife.
The countess suffered perhaps more
than any other member Of the Thaw
family because, aside from her nat
ural affection for the defendant and
solicitude for his safety, she had to
hear from her husbands people. The
relatives OF the Earl of Yarmouth
constantly harped upon the sting OF
the disgrace brought on the noble
family OF the Seymours.
