HUSBANDS STENOGRAPHER
CAUSE OF WOE, MRS. ROWE SAYS
Woman Files Sensational Answer To
Divorce Bill--Flatly Denies
Charges Against Her.

The contested divorce case OF Elgen
j. against Dorothy l.. Rowe will de-
velop some interesting testimony when
| IL comes to trial, judging from the
answer filed, Thur sday afternoon, TO
the husbands bill for divorce.
After denying her husbands charge
OF possessing a violent and ungoveIn-
able temper, Mrs. Rowe plunges into
long list OF charges against him. She
names a stenographer employed by her
husband in BostoL as the cause of
much OF their trouble. She says they
were very friendly, and 1t was after
his friendship for the girl developed
that his cruelty toward her started.
After a letter written by the woman
fell into Mrs. Rowe's hands, she says
her husband admitted their relations,
and promised her that they would
cease. Then, she says, he Immediately
wrote to the girl, and Mrs. Rowe also
saw this letter.
Rowe charges that his wife was too
friendly with her former husband. A.

claims that the only time she ever
saw him was when he came TO see
their son, who was i'll.
Mrs. Rowe now lives in apartments
at Warren and Woodward-aves. and Is
receiving $25 per week alimony. Rowe
is a promoter of food shows and OUT
door amusements. His wife says he
never lived in Detroit, and has no right

KANSAS CITY STOCK MARKETS.
Kansas. City Stock Yards, April 4,

Kansas City Stock Yards, April 4
1910.-Buyers were successful il
pounding the cattle market 20 to 81
cents last week up to Thursday, bu
the week closed with signs of firm
ness, and today the situation is entire
ly reversed, and prices are 10 to 25
cents higher. Receipts were smaller
the last week than they have been
running, but buyers say the outlet for
beef Is being curtailed by increased
egg production now, and they worked
their raid on prices to the full limit.
Nobody took the break seriously, as
the belief in higher prices ahead has
pretty safe foundation. A good many
cattle contracted for delivery April LIST
came in last week, an influence that
will not be felt this week. Expecta-
ton was for smaller receipts today
than heretofore on Monday, which
proved to be correct Supply here is
1000 cattle, including 10 cars in quar-
antine division, the lightest supply in
that division on Monday for a month.
The run of quarantine embraced six
cars of South Texas grassers, No.
at 1925 today, but prime fed quar-
antine steers are quotable around
$500, and fair to good steers s6.25 to
$3.50. grass steers s5.25 to s6.25, cows
$500 to s5.75, bulls s4.75 to $5.75,
calves 500 to $3.50 Stockers are sell
ing in the native division here today
at 425 to s6.15. feeders s5.75 to $3.50.
There was small increase in the
hog supply last week over previous
weeks in the last month, and the
market drifted along in a rut, without
much net change for the week. Sup
ply today is 5000 head, market opened |
