TWO WIVES SUING
ROAD FOR DAMAGES
FIRST SPOUSE OF RAILWAY EN-
GlNEER CLAIMS DIVORCE
FROM HER WAS ILLEGAL.

Sioux Falls. S. Done of the
most peculiar cases ever instituted
here is dependent upon the legality
of a divorce granted by a South Da-
kota court during the palmy days of
the divorce industry. r. L.. Meldrin,
formerly a resident of New York
state, in 1905 was granted a South
Dakota divorce. On his return to
the east he married wife No. 2. Mel
drin was a railroad engineer, and
about a year ago he was killed. while
on duty. Recently wife No. / insti-
tuted an action against the railway
company by which he was employed
by which she seeks to recover dam
ages in the sun of $4,000 for the
death of Meldrin. She contends that
the South Dakota divorce granted
Meldrin was invalid and that she
has a legal standing as his widow.
To complicate matters, wife No. 2
now has instituted a damage suit
against the railway company, placing
her damages at a much higher. figure
than wife No. l.. Wife No. 2 now is
in Sioux Falls seeking to establish
the legality of Meldrin's residence
here, and the divorce granted him,
and thus establish her own standing
as the legal widow of the dead man.
1t is said the railway company is will
ing to effect a settlement with Wife
No. L, but it cannot do so because
OF the suit which has been institu-
ted by the second wife. The trial OF
the cases promises to be very inter
esting.

HORSE THIEF TAKEN
IN WYOMING TOWN

Sioux Falls, S. D.-The United
States authorities have have been ad-
.vised of the arrest, near Gillette,
Wyo., of Phil Cournoyer, a mixed
blood Sioux Indian, who is under in
dictment in the federal court for
horse stealing, alleged to have been
committed on the Rosebud reserva-
.tion.
Cournoyer fled from the state be-
fore he could be arrested, and for
months efforts to locate him we're un-
availing. Recently, however, blu a
letter written to an acquaintance in
South Dakota it was learned he was
in Wyoming. The arrest was made
by Sheriff Farrell of Sundance, Wyo.,
who traced the fugitive to a ranch 20
miles north of Gillette. where he was
working in a hay field.
Cournoyer is one of several broth
ers who have caused the United
States authorities trouble. Two or
three of the brothers are serving
terms in the federal penitentiary at
Leavenworth, Kan, for thefts of
horses and cattle on the Rosebud
reservation.
