ASIOR DIVORCE DEGREE
 GIVEN TO THE THE PUBLIC
BUT IT IS NOT VERY ENlIGHT-
 EWING.
The Terms of the Money Settlement
 Subject of Conjecture.

New York. March 4.-Beneath his signature that made final today the interlocutory decrea of divorce G.SntCd Mrs. Ava Willing As;or from her hus- band. Col. John Jacob Astor Justice Mills wrote: The clerk of the co'irt is hereby ordered not ta seal tine above final judgment"
 The decree. howeSsr. filed tonight st Poughkeepsie.-thr county seat, makes little known that hca not ben fore cast. There appears the bald state ment that the marriage was dissolved by reason of a statutory offense on the part of the defendapt. but no mon ey settlement is mentioned the name of the correspondent is not given and none of the testimony taken pv the referee is available
 The plaintiff n1 remarrN. but not the defendant The custody of Will liam Vincent ASror. a son. IS given to the father with th" provision thaI the mother may see him whenever she wishes. and the custody of the daugh- ter. Ava Alice Muriel. is awarded to the mother with the provision that the father may see her at all reasonable times. The understanding is tl.at ti.o settlement Of all money matters was arrived at before the decree was sign ed and it is probable that the exact amount will never be known.
 Ii has not been the policy of the Astor estate to allow money to go out of the family. Therefore it seems likely that no lump sum has been set tied. but that Mrs. Astor will enjoy a stipulated income during her life or as long as she remains single
 Col. Astor is one of the richest men in the United States and the Astor estate is one of the largest holders of realty in the world. It has been re- ported on one hand that Mrs. Astor will receive s10O00.0OO outright. and on the other. that she will get the comparatively modest allowance of s50.000 year.
 It is reported that there was hag- SlinG over the exact amount to be awarded. and there is ground to be- lievc that the s50.000 per year esti- mate ig nearer the truth than the siO.- 100000 lump sum.

of war the eXiscncics in which the postal funds may be withdrawn from the banks in which they are deposited. was the technical subject of discus . sion during the entire sitting and during the time there were many acrid exchanges of views.
 Mr Root dwelt strongly on the ne cessity of protecting the credit Of the country. Mr. Carter strongly second cd Mr. Roots appeal and drew a vivid picture Of the possibility of an unex pected national need of funds.
 Both Messrs. Clay and Cuiinmins charged MT. Shoot witA inconsistency in originally presenting .n amend ment prohibiting the withdrawal Of postal funds from the local banks and following that up with another provi- sion authorizing withdrawals.
 MT. Smoot defended his course on the ground that he had been con vinccI of the unconstitutionality of the proposed law without provision bringing it within the borrowing clause of the. constitution

WHEN WAR WAS DECLARED.

Philadelphia. March 4.-The final word. ordering general strike at midnight. was sent to the union workers tonight. when the committee of ten received word from the sec retary Of the carmen's union that the last effort at arbitration had failed.
 X proclamation was also made to unorsanized workers. who are urged by the committee to refrain from working until the committee of ten. through the Central Labor union and United Building Trades council. or ders resumption of work. Another proclamation calls for a public dem onstration of the working people of Philadelphia at Independence square tomorrow.
 It was stated that hundreds of let ters had been received today from ,bodies of unsklled workmen not af- filiated with unions. declaring their intention to strike. At D. m. a thousand workers were already out, according to the labor leaders The Philadelphia Typographical union will not participate in the general strike.
 All night long reports came to the offices of the Allied Building trades from small union headquarters de- tailing the number of men who would cease work in sympathy with the striking carmen. It is certain that the sympathetic strike will cause much suffering and inconvenience. It is declared that practically all the drivers of bakery. milk and market wagons and the teamsters of the fruit and produce dealers will stand by the orders to cease work The Teamsters' union. comprising at least n per cent of all the drivers in the city. will quit work. it is said. and will not return until' the general strike is called off.
 Three thousand textile workers. it is reported. have decided to strike. This will cripple nine wOolen mills. It is reported that 10000 tailors and cIoakmakers. 5000 bricklayers. io.000 members of the Building Trades coun- cil. 800 members of the International Gold Beaters union and 500 cabinet makers are among those who will strike.

Failure of Settlement of
 Philadelphia Trouble \ TALLY OF THE IDLE
Made By Union Leaders In dicates That City Author ities Had Underestimated Effect of the Order of the Central Labor Union

Philadelphia. March S.-Encouraged bv messages of sympathy and offers of assistance from labor organiza- tions in all parts of the country, the union workers in many trades ceased work at midnight and inaugurated what promises to be one of the great est sympathetic strikes in the his tory of organized labor. The com mittee of ten says that at least 15.0eO organized workers. as well as many unorganized men. have ceased work.
 Promptly at midnight union or chestras playing in the leading hotels and cafes picked up their instru- ments and started home. Union cab drivers and chauffeurs also aban- doned their posts. The hotel and railroad cab and automobile service is badly crippled. The drivers of both taxicab services. members of the union. refused to take their machines out after midnight.
 The committee of ten remained ip session all night. receiving reports from local unions. The labor leaders refused to comment on the report that the police will prevent dem onstration planned for tomorrow at Independence square. Rioting. which began tonight in several sections of the city and was particularly severe in the northeast section, is thought to be the forerunner of more serious trouble tomorrow, when thousands of idle men will thronS the streets.
 While the labor leaders are re- ceiving the moral support from fel- low workmen in all parts of the country, many associations of em- ployers have sent letters and tele grams to the offiCials of the Rapid Transit company and city officials. commenting their position and urg- ing them to stand firm in their de- termination not to recognize the union.
 All policemen and firemen specials who have been on duty since the strike began received orders tonight to re- main at their posts. The number of emergency automobiles was increased. Many machines are driven by their owners. wealthy men, who have vol unteered for police duty and were sworn in by Director Clay William DreXler was probably fatally shot to- night by'a policeman who fired into a crowd that congregated. Several street cars had been stoned by crowd and the police guarding them fired volley. \ bullet struck Drexler.

THE UNITED STATES
 MUST INTERVENE

Bluefields. March 4.->lfter three days of conference. there is every reason to believe that General Estrada. the leader of the revomtionists. and his ad- visors have reluctantly ac- quiesced to the demand of the American residents at \iCa- ragua that receptive ear he turned to any proposal for American intervention that guar antees them the rights demand ed. d denial of which caused the revolution. The original de- mandS of the revolutionists in- cluded the overthrow of Zelaya and resoratiOn to the people of the constitutional and com mon rights of citizens.
 While Estrada. Diaz, Riveria and other conferees were silent concerning the matter. frequent calls upon Thomas Moffat. the American consul. is considered to support that view. IL is safe to say that Chamorro's defeat has not altered the view of the people of the east coast of Mica ragua as to the suaranties that will be necessary to peace. In doubtedly they will demand the fulfillment of every principle for which the armies fought and the justice of which Madriz has frequently admitted.
 The American interests in Nicaragua insist that the pay ment of the revolutionary debts be a part of the agreement. Merchants extended credit tn the revOlutionistS with the as- surance that the United States was behind them. and they ar gue that the Washington gov ernment is bound to safeguard their interests. Nothing except intervention can stop the war 1, L [. {.

greaationaI Committee,

Washington, Feb. 15.--The fact that
Thomas Jefferson, then president. de-
clined TO appear in court ana produce
certain papers in the trial OF Aaron
Burr for treason, taken in connection
with the attitude Of the senate and
house on the mandamus OF Judge
Wright to the joint committee on
printing in congress to appear in the
supreme court OF the district OF Col
urnbia last week, aroused interesting
comment yesterday among some Of the
oficials of the department Of justice,
who were looking over the court rec
ords bearing in the case.
Mr.. Jefferson was asked 10 bring
among other papers, letter from a
general, who was believed TO have
knowledge of Burr's alleged treason
able designs upon the southwest, but
he contended that as the executive ON
Ger OF the government. he was exempt
from the process of the court.
The documents do not disclose Just
how the incident ended but one Of the
officials said It was his recollection
from reading the history OF the trial
that the presidents attitude was up
held by the courts Burr was tried
at Richmond, Va, in 1907 and was &C.
