Mrs. BeuIah Sanders Now Asks Court
to Sever Legal Ties.

Beulah Sanders, who married Ed
ward Sanders on the 7th day of April,
1905. wants the district court to grant
her an absolute divorce for the very
good reason that her husband has
abandoned her and has failed to pro-
vide for her support. There are no
charges of extrme cruelty, abuse. beat
ing or anything of that kind which are
so common in petitions of this kind
But this is explained farther along
in the petition where it stats that the
husband left his bride, deserted her on
the day of their marriage and has not
since that time either provided for her
or made hr a home. TIL reasons the
groom had for such an ungallant act
the petition does not recit.

Wall St, New York, Feb. 17-STOCKS-
Many stocks started today at unchanged
prices from last night and there were no
wide variations. A decline of Is in Anal
gamated Copper was the msot notable
change.
The market became weak as a result of
liquidation in the metal stocks. After de-
clines in the neighborhood of a point had
been recorded in handful of stocks,
speculation became dull but revived and
grew firmer when Atchison began to show
strength.
S Prices drifted backwards and forwards
on insignificant transactions with no pro-
nounced tendency.
Bonds were firm.
Dizziness was the feature of the midday
market. None fthe usually active stocks
varied more than X and many stocks were
not dealt in all.
Aside from a few transactions in Atchi-
son. which scored further advance to 1875
speculation was practically at a standstill.
