While he admits that he is play

made $4,000 a month, Paul Arm

sci in the reply to his wife's suit
for divorce which was filed In the
Circuit Court for Anne Arundel
county late yesterday afternoon, as
briefly told in yesterdays Capital.
The suit of Mrs. Rella Abel
Armstrong was instituted last week
and in her complaint she alleged
unfaithfulness, brutality and cruel
ty. All of these charges Mr.. Arm
strong denies and he further says
that while it is true that he owns val
liable property near Annapolis, this
property is heavily burdened with
mortgages and other debts.
In view of her husband S income,
which she alleged to be as much as
$4,000 month and being without
sufficient funds to prosecute the
suit, she asked counsel fees and ali
mony and the court thereupon passed
an order directing Mr.. Armstrong

a month, the first payment to be
made yesterday, December 15, which
was also the expiration of the time
MINT for the filing of answer to the
suit.
In view of his denial that his in
come is anything like the amount al
legged, Mr.. Armstrong in his answer
prays the court to pass further or.
der reducing the amount of counsel
fee and alimony, in accordance with
his actual income
Mr.. Armstrong, so far as can be
learned here, is still in Chicago.
He was there looking after the pro-
duction of his newest play, THE
Deep Purple" at the time of the
filing of the suit. and it is said he
has not been East since. Mrs.
Armstrong, with the three children,
are living at Belmont, the country
estate, near this city, which was
purchased by Mr.. rmstrong about
two years ago.

THE C0LOEST YET
Thermometer Registers 10 Above Zero
More Cold Weather Promised

From oid-fashioned winters, Good
Lord deliver US! So say the most of
US, if there are to be many more
such nights as last night and many
more such early mornings as this.
AT IL o'clock, noon. today, the Off
cial thermometer of the Weather Bu-
reau, located in a cage" in The
Capitals back yard. registered 10
degrees above zero; minimum tenn
perature, and 26 maximum. This is
the coldest this season, and the cold
est 10th of December for some years.
More cold weather is promised for
tonight, with fair and rising tenn
perature tomorrow.
The cold wave arrived on schedule
time last night. with a strong north
west gale, that nearly blew pedes-
trians from their feet. About z
o'clock last evening there were snow
flurries, and it was thought another
snow storm was coming to add to
the pile of dirty snow that has lain
on the streets for two weeks.
The furry lasted but a few min
utes, however, and as it passed it
was seen that in the sky dark
storm clouds were hurrying along
at great rate. Soon after the
wind freshened and its velocity in
creased until early this morning.
In explaining the cause of the sec
ond touch of winter, the weather man
said last night:
There is at the present time u
storm center over the Great Lakes.
Shortly after O'Clock the barometer
fell rapidly, but when the snow stop,
ped the barometer picked up again,
and the wind freshened. Hence the
northwest warning. The warning
was sent to US from Washington, and
is displayed along the Atlantic sea
board from Norfolk to New York.
can't say just when the storm will
reach here, but you can rest assured
that Annapolis will have some mighty
cold weather for the next several days
to come"
The additional snow, if it comes
with the northwest storm as is
thought will be the case, will greatly
hamper the Christmas shoppers. 1t
was hoped by many that the snow
would refrain from falling until
Christmas-eve but according to the
weather man, Annapolis will have all
the snow possible before then, and
shoppers will be forced to wade about
in the slush as during the later part
of last week.
1t was a trifie warmer yesterday
than 1t has been for some days past.
The ice on the ponds and creeks
about the city was softened little.

AND EVERY SOUL WAS SAVED
Two United States Sailors Given Credit
For Saving 800 Passengers On Bay
Line Steamer

What might have been a horrible
tragedy was averted by the good
training, added to the fearlessness
and daring of two of Uncle Sans en-
listed men.
With the suddenness of an explo-
sion ire was discovered on the steam
er Maryland, of the New York, Phil
adeIphia and Norfolk Railroad, while
that steamer was en- route to Cape
Charles from Norfolk last night with
nearly three hundred passengers on
hoard, and before the flames were
subdued practically the entire inter
ior of the vessel was burned.
That the ship was not totally de-
stroyed and that no lives were lost is
due directly to the heroism of NJ.
Stone and w. II. Schingle. They are
United States sailors from the re-
ceiving ship franklin, who had just
completed their training course at
the st. Helena reservation. With
eight shipmates they were on their
way to the New York navy yard to
be assigned to the battleships lndi-
ana and Massachusetts.
There was a 30-mile wind from the
northwest blowing at the time and
had the steamer been far from port
the consequences would have been
horrible Nothing on earth could
have possibly saved the lives of a
good many passengers had the fire
been discovered after the steamer
was out in the bay.
With only about twenty minutes be-
tween safety and possible death. Cap
tain Adler, commanding the Mary
land, made all speed possible for
Sewall's S Point, and kept up a contin-
uous appeal for help by blowing dis.
tress signals. The race against fire
was an inspiring one despite the ser
iousness of the situation. During
the mad race Stone and his compan-
ions fought the fine practically sin
gle-handed or directed others just
what to do.
Stone. with his body haDging over
the ship. kept a stream Of water on
the fire during the run to SewalI's
Point. To his bravery and those of
the men who stood behind him, the
passengers owe a good DEAL perhaps
their lives.

CHICAGO, May 2.-Chas. A. White.
Democratic Representative in the ILL
nois Legislature, has confessed that
he accepted $4,000 for voting for Will
liam Lorimer for the United States
Senate and declares he took the bribe
in order that he might expose the ras-
cality of the Illinois lawmakers.
White says he was given $1,000 in
greenbacks by Lee Browne, the DEM
ocratic leader, whom he met at the
Griggs house in Chicago. At that
time, White claims, Browne remarked
that he could give White about as
much more at later date, and sub
sequently, when the session closed,
White received 5000, his share of the
Jackpot"
States Attorney Wayman took Rep
resentative Chas. A. White, Of O'Fal-
Ion, before the special grand jury to
repeat his confession of alleging that
he received bribe of $1,000 for voting
for William Lorimer for United States
Senator and later 5000 as his share in
Jackpot" or general legislative cor
ruption fund.
The public prosecutor intimates also
that in the near future the down-state
legislators mentioned by White in his
charges will appear before the special
inquisitorial body.
The legislative bribery scandal will
have the right of way and when the
special grand Jury gets through with
its work Whites astounding story will
have been Investigated to the bottom.
The inquiry will not be confined to
Cook County alone, for in Sangamon
County the regular grand jury con-
venes at Springfield and States At
torney Edmund Burke declares that it
will make an exhaustive inquiry into
the corrupt deals alleged by White to
have been transacted at the capital.
Lee O'Neill Browne, of Ottawa,
Democratic leader at Springfield. and
Senator Lorimer, both emphatically
deny the use of bribe.

For instance, l have many times
