MRs.BURNs FOUND OUT
Absent Five Years and Feared She Has Been Di- vOrced.

Mrs. Mary Burns, a. comedy woman of about thirty years, made her ap- pearance at the county court house this morning to ascertain whether she was a married woman or not. She ex- p1ained to the clerk of the court, in somewhat broken tones, that she had been away from the city for about five years, only returning. this week. She made a. search for her husband, James Burns, but could not seem to find him. She later learned that he had obtain ed a divorce from her about a year ago on the ground of desertion. It WAS for this reason that she inquired as to her condition in life..
 A thorough search through the di
 vorce records for a few years back failed to bring to light any informa-- ton whereby James Burns was freed from a Mary Burns. Mrs. Burns on receiving the information let out a big sigh of relief, and when asked by the man on the elevator as she was 1eav- ing the building, How do you stand ?" she, casting a sly glance at him, said, "Pm still a married woman.''

BILL LIMITING '-e -'' SALOONS PASSED
 SENATE TODAY
(continued from First Page)

It became known to-day that the committee has again undergone a change of heart. First 1t was given out that the committee had but one report to make and that was to be in favor of a repeal of the existing statute. But the electric lighting lob by never gave up. They went right at the thing and they apparently have not labored in vain. It is said upon the authority of one of the committee that what will be done is this. The existing statute will be wiped out and a substitute measure introduced where by it will be lawful for any person' to manufacture electricity for his own use and he may even sell it to his immediate neighbors providing. how ever. that he can not like the electric highways for the purpose of disposing ot his surplus current to neighbor across the street from him. MT. A. M. Cooper of the Rowland Dry Goods company of Bridgeport. was at the capitol to-day and he busted himself was back of the delay upon the report of the bill
 The Senate voted $eooo0 for an arm ory at Stamford, It passed a law prohibiting the taking of shell fish from Sherwood's mill pond at West port. It passed a bill which creates a new office that will be filled by some lawyer at an annual salary of
 
 quire into the antecedents of indeigent persons who are being kept at the ex- pense of towns. An appropriation of 900 for an armory at Torrington was passed.
 The House yesterday passed over the head of the Railrcad committee which reported adversely a bill providing for a cent trolley fare within the con- fines of Huntington, and as it did not reconsider its action today the matter will now go to the Senate where it is likely it will receive a solar plexus The House today appropriated $250,000 for a State institution for epi1eptics, the expense of maintaining to be borne by taxes levied in the towns having patients at the institution.
 As was expected the Judiciary com mittee reported unfavora.b1y upon the bill calling for a reduction in the night telephone rates. The House rejected the unfavorable report of the commit tee and ordered the bill tabled for ca1- endar. Representative Johnson of Newtown is one of the aggressive members Of the House who is fight ing hard to get the, telephone rates re- duced and he has the support of many of the able members of the body.

WIDOW OF CLARK Z .s.. HAS CERTIFICATEl
 PROVING MARRIAGE
SISTERS OF WILLIAM E. CLARK AVER MOTHER OF HIS CHILL
 DREN WAS NOT HIS WIFE
They Want His Property

After thirty years of happy married life with a husband now a few months dead Mrs. Nora D. Clark. of this city. will tomorrow morning, hear evidence by which it will be- claimed that. she was never a wife and that her chill dren, one married. the other a beauti- full girl just budding into wonanhood. are the illegitimate offspring of Will liam E. Clark. All this comes to pass because of a quarrel over the distribu- tion of Clark's estate. which will prob ably not amount to 5000.
 The quarrel, which has now waged for sometime, is brought to a focus by the petition of Mrs. Clark for a writ of prohibition. Mrs. Clark claims that Judge Charles H. Peck of Stratford is about to decide that she was not a wife. She alleges that such power is in the Superior court only. She is fighting to protect her good name and that of her children.
 Mrs. Clark will produce the certif1- cate showing her marriage to William B. Clark in New Haven in 1877. f
 But the sisters of William E. Clark. who are Harriet A Cornwall. of this city, Elizabeth B. Chatfield of New Haven, and Anna T. Tibbal1s of this city will claim that the marriage was no marriage for the reason that Mrs. Clark had, some two years earlier. as Miss Nora Lester. married Charles T.. Ives, and that Ives at the time of her, second marriage was neither dead. nor divorced.
 A record of the first marriage is in the possession of Henry Stevenson, counsel for the defendants.
 It states that Nora Lester was mar riad to Charles T. Ives in this city, Dec. ?, 1874, by Rev. D. o. Ferris.
 The record of Mrs. Clark's second marriage as obtained from John P. Buckley. assistant registrar of vital statistics at New Haven follows: "Groom's name, William E.. Clark, Bridgeport, Conn. aged 23. birthplace, Bridgeport, condition. single. Bridge groom, Lenora Ives. of Bridgeport, age 21. birthplace. E1izabethport, N. J. Date of marriage. Jan. 3. 1877. by Rev. B. E. Beardsley. rector of St. Thomas Church.
 The case will be heard by Judge George W. Wheeler at 10 o'clock to- morrow morning.

BEYERIDGE DEFENDS
 INSURGENT ACTION:

Washington, July 9-Discussing to- day the action of the ten insurgent Republican Senators who voted against the Aldrich bill last night, Senator Beveridge said: "Our votes were cast against the bill in harmony with the pledge given by the Republican party and the Nations head. We do not believe this bill fulfills the pledges. keep it just; to preserve party we must keep it's faith. Where protec- tive rate is higher than honest protec- tion requires, there is presented a moral question, rather than an eco homie question. The only peril to the protective system is that deadly thing excess. It was to prevent that peril that we have been fighting throughout these three long months, that we vot- ed against the bill last night and that we shall continue to fight. Our votes tell the conferees what we think they should do in adjusting this bill"

New York, July 9.--T1is mind unbal- anced by the excessive use of liquor. ..Terrible Terry" McGovern. ex-pugi- list. spent last night in the observation ward of the Kings County Hospital. His wife, afraid he would kill her. had him arrested yesterday afternoon in front of his home at No. 205 Efgh- teenth street. South Brooklyn. Magis- trate Geismar committed him to the hospital.
 The police say Terry started about two weeks ago to drink up all the wine and whiskey in South Brooklyn. He had gone into the real-estate busi- ness in Montague street and had been fairly successful. but the temptation to drink became stronger than busi- ness ties.
 Three years ago McGovern was taken to a sanitarium in Stamford, Conn. He escaped. was recaptured and finally was dismissed.
