THE DIVORCE MIL
MIGHT CEASE
GRINDING
NEVADA JUDGE MAKES RULING
THAT SPREADS CONSTERNA-
TION AMONG MATED.

Reno, New, April S.-Consternation
reigns supreme in the divorce colony
in this city. An opinion was handed
down this afternoon by Justice Orr of
the Nevada judicial district SO far
reaching in it's effect that it has ere
ated general opinion in this city that
the divorce mill will stop grinding.
1t was held in the case of Milnar
against Milnar that an attempt to per-
petrdte a fraud on the court was COM
mitted by the plaintiff and defendant
entering into collusion for the pur-
pose of giving the court jurisdiction.
The Milnars are residents of Los An
geles. Mrs. Milnar came here a few
days before the trial of the case. Mil
mar followed her by only few days
and remained but one day and while
here was served with the papers. 1t
appearing on the trial of the case that
he came solely for that purpose, the
court held that such action and collu-
sion removed the cause from the jur-
isdiction, and it was dismissed.
In the case of Rowland against
HoWland it appeared that Mrs. How
land had been in Reno three months
before she started her case. Her hus-
band came here on businesses and was
surprised by summons on him.
The plaintiff urged that she was en-
titled to a decree under the provision
of the statute which says whenever
the defendant resides or may be found
in the state" This called for an in
terpretation by the court, and the
court held that while it might be that
a person could acquire residence in
this state in one day, evidence so
strong as to overcome any doubt must
be presented in support of that con-
tention. Touching on the language of
the statutes, Judge Orr said that he
did not construe them to mean that
this threw the courts of Nevada open
to the world SO that people might
come here, stay day or so, the
plaintiff start the action the defend
ant come in and be served and thus
confer jurisdiction on the court He
added:
"If such We're the intention, then
I must say that Dakota in her palmy
days could not approach the mark
that Nevada will make in her divorce
laws"
His conclusion is that this inter-
pretation of the statute applies only
in the case of bona fide resident of
the state served in whatver jurisdic-
ton ne may be found in the state.
This, the lawyers say, would seem
to settle the Sother case. which is
almost identical. Judge Pike is one
of the justices who heard arguments
in that case only recently and he has
reserved decision
At the present time there are at
least so men and women in Reno who
have either applied or are preparing
to apply for divorce here.

POOL PLAYER SHOOTS
BUSINESS MAN
FORMER CHAMPION DANGEROUS
LY WOUNDS MAN IN AN
ALTERATION.

Salt Lake City, April S.-James L.
Malone, for eight years champion pool
player of the world, is in Jail and Nels
Paulson, a business man, is at the
Holy Cross hospital suffering from
serious bullet wound inflicted by Ma
lone. The shooting took place in the
salesrooms of J. P. Paulson & Co,
dealers in billiard supplies and bar
fixtures, on West Second South street.
Nels Paulson is local manager for the
firm, which has it's main store in Den
YER.
The trouble between the men was
over their business relations. Malone,
who came to this city from Denver a
year ago, purchased the equipment
for a pool and billiard hall from the
Paulsons. He has since been in their
debt and alleges that they have dealt
harshly with him. 1t was an alleged
attempt by Paulson to attach bill
lard table that Malone had sold to
an officer at Fort Douglas that took
Malone to the Paulson store this even
ing. He asserts that Paulson seized
him by the coat collar and was lead
ing him out of the store when he
shot. The bullet penetrated Paulson's
abdomen, making a wound that will
probably prove fatal.
Malone has played pool all over the
world. He lost the championship
some half dozen years ago to one of
his pupils. De Orc, who still retains
the title. Before going into business
in Salt Lake Malone gave instructions
in pool playing to students of the
game in Denver

dent OF Venezuela Is Informed Of
Decision and Is Taken Very Ills
Between Devil and Deep Blue Sea.

Paris, April S.-The French govern
ment decided today to expel Cipriano
Castro, the former president OF yene-
zuela from the French island of Mar
Unique on the ground that his pres
ence there is likely to foment a revo-
luton in Venezuela.
This decision followed consideration
of cablegram from M. Jusserand,
the French amba ssador at Washing
ton, giving an account of his confer
ence with Secretary of State Knox
yesterday.
1t is presumed here that the gov
ernment of the United States, which
initiated he exchanges with foreign
governments to prevent Castro from
establishing headquarters close to
the Venezuelan coast, will prevent
him making his way to the mainland
on sailing vessel. This course will
leave Castro the alternative of taking
refuge on one of the Danish West
Indian islands or returning to Eu-
rope. The French line steamer Ver-
sailles touches at Fort de France on
April 10 on her way back to Europe
The Temps says that Great Britain
was consulted before the decision to
expel Castro from Martinique was
taken, and the Llberte declares the
French government had certain infor-
nation regarding Castro's political
and military plans that rendered his
expulsion desirable.

Castro Becomes III.

Fort de France, April 8.-Shortly
after returning from a drive through
Fort de France this morning Cipriano
Castro became suddenly i'll. He COM
planned of severe pain in the abdo-
men, and it was apparent that he
suffered greatly. The scar left by the
operation performed in Berlin has
opened for distance of several cent?
meters, and his condition is undoubt-
edly grave.
The former president of Venezuela
was informed today of the decision
of the French government to expel
him from Martinique. He appeared
not to believe the news.
The ex-president maintains silence
with regard to his intentions. He is
waiting the arrival of the mail
steamers from Venezuela and Port of
Spain.
He is still indignant at the course
of the powers in forcing him to land
here and preventing him from going
to Trinidad, and he characterizes this
step as violation of his personal lib
erty. The attitude of the people to-
ward him is one of sympathy.

Efforts Successful.

Washington, April 8.-The efforts of
the American government to keep for
mer President Castro out of Vene-
zuela and away from the nearby
mainlnad and islands have every in
dication of being successful Most of
the powers having possessions in that
district have indicated to the state
department that Castro Is not wanted
within their boundaries, and they are
willing to acquiesce in the desire of
the United States that he be far re-
moved from the scene Of his former
prestige.
Notwithstanding Castro's deposition
as president, he has still a great
many warm adherents in Venezuela,
and it is believed here that his return
might be the occasion of a demonstra-
ton resulting in the re-establishment
of unsettled conditions. This govern
ment feels that Castro ought not to
be allowed to return to Venezuela or
to be permitted to make headquarters
at any of the surrounding ports.

BRIDGE AND CONSTRUCTION
COMPANY GETS CONTRACT
FOR IMPROVEMENT.
TO CONNECT THIRD STREET
Retaining Wall Will Be Built to Join
South Abutment Of Higgins Avenue
observation-disclosures Of Recent City
Election Are Canvassed-Clear Decks
for New Administration.

South Third street is to be con-
nected with the Higgins avenue
bridge as it was before the flood. This
was finally decided last night when
the city council accepted the bid of
the Burrell Bridge & Construction
company for the construction of a re-
tanning wall along the north boundary
of the street joining with the south
abutment of the Higgins avenue
bridge. This wall is to be erected at
cost to the city of $1,000, while
the county is to bear the rest, which
will amount to approximately $4,000.
Engineer II. A. White, representing
Waddell & Harrington, and Engineer
b. w. Sweet of the Burrell Bridge
company were present at the meeting
with plans for several styles Of wall,
ranging from the one which was ac-
cepted to complete system of abut-
ment walls which would fill out the
entire line of the street and also bank
up the little hill on the east side Of
Higgins avenue where it joins the
bridge. The necessity of the more
complete wall was realized by the
council, but after a long discussion
they decided that the city could not
bear the cost of such a wall at this
time-the plans call for an expendi-
ture Of nearly S16,000-and ordered
the wall as planned left in such a
form that it could be completed as
soon as the treasury was in better
condition.
Water Over Bridge.
Judge Evans also appeared before
the council in behalf of the Missoula
Light & Water company and asked
that the company be given permission
to run a wooden water main across the
Van Buren, street bridge on the side
walk brackets on the east side Of the
structure, which are at present not in
use. The petition called forth long
argument as to the right of the city
to make the company pay for the
use of the bridge. but after Chief May
and several of the aldermen had spo-
ken in favor Of granting the petition,
the objections on the part of those who
wished to make the company pay were
overruled and the petition was grant
ed, with the provision that if at any
time the city might wish to build an
other sidewalk on the east side of the
bridge it might order the pipes re-
moved

 Judge Case rendered somewhat lengthy decision, the gist of which ap- pears in the subjoined paragraph:
 In the conceded absence of violence of any sort, and from what the eVi- dence adduced discloses as situation free from intimidation, threats or force, find nothing in the acts of any of the defendants which warrants the issuance of temporary injunction.
 This is, in effect, stating that had intimidation, threats or force ap- peared, the injunction would. have been granted. That is the boycott is not illegal if conducted peaceably. Of course however, if the matter is con- nected with interstate commerce, the prohibitive Federal law applies.
