DRAMATIC CRITIC IS
|. A VICTIM OF POISON
Barrett Eastman, Well Known
Chicago Newspaper Man,
Probably a Suicide.

Chicago, Jan. Standardization of
Breslow hotel at Biloxi. Miss, Tuesday
Eastman, city statistician, as that Of
his son., Barrett Eastman, for years
known to Chicagoans as a dramatic
critic.
Barrett Eastman was vel, known in
newspaper and literary circles, and in
addition to extensive work for Chicago
newspapers was a contributor Of prose
ind verse to magazines. AS a special
writer he attracted attention and as
dramatic critic coupled a prominent po-
sition in the newspaper world.
Several years g he married So
phonisba Harrison, a sister of Carter
FL. Harrison III, former mayor OF Chi
cago. His marital life was unhappy
and a divorce followed. Later he mar
ried a wealthy woman and made ibis
home IN California. Returning from
the west he again took up newspaper
work In Chicago.
According to Colonel Eastman, the
father. the young nan had suffered for
two years from q blood clot over one Of
his temples. Colonel Eastman declared
that this preyed upon his sons mind
and had caused him to be often despon-
dent. The young man recently bought
q ranch near Los Angeles, and had
planned to &C there with his wife to
recuperate.
My son had been ailing for about
two years" said Colonel Eastman, land
there is nc doubt in my mind that he
killed himself on this account"

Denver NEWSPAPERS
FORCED TO SUSPEND
Strike Of Freshmen Causes
Publishers of Dailies to
Cease Temporarily.

Denver. Jan. 1S.-Probably for the
first time in its history Denver break
tasted today without it's usual morn
ing paper. The cause was the difficulty
between the publishers and the local
organization Of the International Press
mems union, which reached a climax
yesterday. Although yesterdays confer
ence was continued until long after
midnight, no basis for agreement could
be reached, and publishers Of the two
morning papers decided not to make
any attempt to publish this morning.
The demands Of the local union orig
inally were for a seven-hour instead of
an eight-hour day and an increase OF 81
a day, the changes to date from March
/, last. These conditions were agreed
to, but before the final adjustment
could be made the pressmen demanded
that they be granted time and a half
for the extra hour they had worked un-
der the new scale from last March.
This the publishers refused and the
lockout followed. Negotiations will be
resumed today.
The increase of 81 a day and time
and a half for the extra hour since last
March will aggregate between $4,000
and $50, 900 for the four local dailies.
II an adjustment is not reached
speedily the trouble may involve pa
pers In other cities Of the state.

VIRGINIA HARMED TO
SEEK DIVORCE AGAIN
Well Known Actress Will Ask
Nevada Courts for Relief
Once More.

New York, Jan. 1S.-Virginia Harmed,
wife Of E. H. Sothern, the Shakespeare
an actor, is seeking divorce. She left
for Reno, New. the divorce mecca, the
other day to establish a residence pre-
paratory to bringing suit.
With Miss Harmed vent her intimate
friend, Margaret Gordon. who was for
years associated with Maude Adams.
They will make their home In the west
ern city six months. that being the
term of residence necessary before a
divorce ear be secured.
Before her departure Miss Harmed
gave 1t out that she vas starting on a
vaudeville tour, but the rea! truth was
learned from intimate friends of hers.
Miss Harmed made an effort q year
ago to secure q divorce in Reno, but her
application was refused on h ground
that she was not a resident of the
state. The basis of the suit at that
time was desertion and failure to sup
port. No mention was made Of a CO.
respondent. Miss Harmed denied that
her divorce suit was prompted by Jeal-
busy or that she and Sothern both had
planned to marry again as soon as the
decree was granted. In regard to this
report Miss Harmed said:
THAT is not true. There Is no ques-
ton of anyone else with us. The diff
ferences did not grow out OF jealousy,
but from opposing ideas about our
work."
Sothern made no opposition at the
time the last suit was filed.
