MACK SECURES ANNULMENT OF
 WEES DIVORCE

Judge Lucien F. Burpee in the Su- cision in the suit brought by Charles B. Mack, a West End newsletter, against his wife Florine F. Mack Mack petitioned the court for the ans nu1lment of the divorce granted to his wife against him by the Superior court of California in 1906, and also asked that the defendant be enjoined from having any further relation with AL bert Camtigli, whom she married three days after receiving her final decree from the California court. Judge Bur pee has ruled that judgment by de- fault may be entered and the decree of divorce made by the Superior court of California be declared null and void"
 The court did not, however, enter an injunction prohibiting the defend ant from any further relation with Camtigli. but one would form an opin- ion that as the court has declared the divorce null and void it may be in ferred that she cannot live with Cam tigli legally. atsleast in Connecticut. Last Friday the case was called in the Superior court and Attorneys Sha- piro & Shapiro, counsel for Mack, were instructed to file briefs within two weeks. In his brief. Attorney Joseph G. Shapiro stated that Mrs. Mack had no domicile in California and that the courts of that State had no jurisdic- tion over a. resident of another State. Cases were brought up to show that it was the right of the husband to determine where the matrimonial do- nicile shall be, that the donicile of the wife follows that of the husband.
 The plaintiff proved to the satisfac- tion of the court that at the time of his marriage and at the present time he was and is a resident of this State; that he never was in the State of Cali for ,ia vryifh ifcS icdf fofi md that his domicile has always been in this State.

PRINCE. E.ITO'S SON
 DEEPLY AFFECTED
Especial from United Press.)

Genoa, Oct. 27.-The son of Prince Ito, the Japanese statesman slain by a Korean at Harbin. Manchuria, was deeply affected to-day when he was told of his fathers death. The son had been informed on his arrival aboard the Asutamaru that Prince Ito had been seriously wounded but the full extent of the tragedy was kept from him until to-day.
 The statesman's son declared that Koreans had made a serious mistake in assassinating Prince Ito. His fath- CT, he said. was the truest friend of Korea in the public life of Japan. He pointed out that Prince Ito had been violently opposed for the mildness of his treatment of the Koreans and that Japan had always partly resented his Korean policy. Ito's resignation as resident general at Seoul, he said. was due partly to the insistence of the war party that he employ more rigorous methods in subduing Korea
 The young man expressed the opin- ion that the assassination of his father was a part of a general plot which be- gan with the killing of the American adviser of the Japanese government Durham White Stevens, in San Fran cisco a year ago.
