Heavy Gray Mist Forces Trains

Many Essex county commuters had

to fifteen minutes late during the early

beyond that 1t was so dense that the
engineers could not see $50 feet in adj

along.
And after reaching Jersey City, ex-
cept for those that use the Hudson
tunnels, 1t was even worse, as a thick
gray pail covered the Hudson river
and the ferries had to grope their way
across, taking two and three times the
usual time for the trip. At $3.50 the
river was a bedlam of noise, as the
ferries, with whistles blowing continu-
ously, kept lodging each other in the
fog.
Despite the fog handicap, no acct
dents have been reported on either thu
railroads or rivers. Shortly after
o'clock the fog lifted enough to allow
the trains and boats to get back some

GRANTED
IN IS MINUTES
No Time Lost in Freeing Mrs.
Christian Dannebaum from
Deserving Husband.

A decree of absolute divorce was
granted today to Mrs. Minnie NJ. Den
nebaum, of PA Broad street. giving her
the custody of her child. by Vice-Chan-
cellor Howell in the Court of Chancery.
Mrs. Dennebaum based her petition on
the ground that. her husband, Christian
Dennebaum, who was last heard from
in San Antonio, Tex, had deserted her
for the last four or five years, and that
she has had to support herself and her
child. The decree was granted after
a hearing lasting but fifteen minutes.
Dennebaum made a spectacular at
tempt three years ago to kidnap the
little girl. Lille, now with her mother.
Lille was at that time about IL years
old, and was attending a public school
in East Orange. Dennebaum hired a
woman, a resident of Morristown, to
steal the child and to bring her to a
sister of Dennebaum's, residing In
Newark. This vas done, but when the
child realized that she had been
tricked, she screamed and so alarmed
~Dennebaum's people that they finally
released her.
The mother swore out a warrant for
the fathers arrest, and had him
brought before a loyal magistrate.
Upon Dennebaum's promising to never
III any way bother her again, Mrs.
Dennebaum allowed the charge to drop.
The couple were married October l,
1903, and lived together until December
/. 1905, when they separated. George
M. Titus was engaged as counsel by
Dennebaum, but as the husband failed
to make an appearance at any OF the
hearings no argument was made In
his behalf. ]. Edward Smith repre-
sented Mrs. Dennebaum.

by Mrs. Hartley. The executors are
represented by Collins & Corbin, of
Jersey City. and many of the bene-
ficiaries have engaged legal counsel
in the matter. The will involves mill
ions of dollars, and it is expected that
the case will be one of the most bitter
ly contested in the legal annals of New
Jersey.
Mrs. jenkins is cut off in the will

being that her daughter has plenty of
money to support herself and her chill

Mrs. Hartley thinks that it would be

nothing to her daughter, but to leave
the main part of the estate to her
grandson.
Marcellus Hartley Dodge Is the
grandson, and while great secrecy is
maintained by lawyers on both sides,
1t is expected that he will support the
validity of the will to the utmost.
One of the lawyers for the executors,
who refused to be quoted, said yester-
day that under the terms of the will
of Marcellus Hartley, Mrs. Jenkins had
received t%wo-thirds of the immense for

each receiving anywhere from $500 to
$3.50, 900. Her grandson receives the
residue of the estate, amounting to

Badly frightened on his arrival in
