IN BEHALF Of DR.. BOvEE
PHYSICIANS COUNSEL SAYS THE
TRUTH WILL VINDICATE HIM.
Declares Facts Will Put His Conduct
Toward His Wife, Who is Suing
Him, in a Favorable Light.

Gibbs L. Baker. of the law firm of
Douglas & Baker. counsel for DR.. j.
Wesley Bovee. whose wife has just
brought an action in court to compel
her husband to allow her $500 month,
made a brief statement last night In
the absence Of the physician.
All that / can possibly say in the
absence of Dr. Bovee," said Mr.. Baker,
lis that when the true facts concerning
his unfortunate domestic relations are
made known TO the public, as they must
now be, in view of the action taken by
Mrs. Bovee. DIR. Bovee will not only be
absolved from all censure and criticism
by right-thinking people, but his con-
duct toward his wife will be regarded
as extremely charitable"
DR.. Bove and his wife separated In
1907 and. according to the petition which
she has filed with the court. he allowed
her $500 month until June last, when
he cut the allowance down to $40
month. She alleges that he has an in
come of $4,000 a year. and that the
amount allowed her is insufficient to en-
able her to live in the manner to which
she is accustomed.
The exact nature OF the dlfhcultles
which led up to the separation have not
been revealed, nor can Mrs. Bovee be
seen to discuss the case. She lives at

Mr.. Drake was born near Waldo, Ohio,
in 1852 and engaged in the insurance
business in Cincinnati when he was nipe-

He served in this capacity for several
years under Arthur I. Vorys.
In 1902, when the District department
of insurance was created by act of
Congress. he was selected by the Com
mssioners as the first superintendent,
and served in that capacity con-
tinuously until the time of his death.
He worked out the system of inspec-
ton now in force, and established the
department ON a systematic and COM
prehenSive basis.
During his illness his place has been
temporarily filled by Daniel Curry, the

BUILDING BLOWN TO PIECES.
Explosion of 1000 Pounds Of Pow

Special Dispatch to The Star
WILMINGTON, Del, July 23.-Two
thousand pounds of navy smokeless pow
der, the same kind used at Fort Monroe
Va, on the occasion of the recent fatal
disaster, expuloded this afternoon at the
smokeless powder plant of the du Pont
Powder Company. Carneys Point, N. j..
on the Delaware river opposite here. The
powder. which was in a sone-story frame
storehouse 80 feet by 40 feet, exploded
from an unknown cause, completely de-
stroying the structure.
The fact that the works shut down al
noon for Saturday half-holiday, doubt
less saved some lives. No one was in
the storehouse at the time, and no one
was injured. Great trouble was expert
enced in saving other buildings at the
works. The grass was ignited by the
burning powder. The fire was within
seven hundred feet of the main magazine
when ii was put under control 1t is not
known how much poder was in the main
magazine.
