bilski, of Y Essex street. in the Greek
Polish Church last night Stanley Red
wenne, of 262 Front street. Brooklyn,
vas arrested and is now a prisoner
in the Seventh street station in de-
fault of bail. His arrest was caused
by Stanislaw Richly, of 131 Morgan
street, who accused him of having
jumped his bail two years age.
Redwenne and his bride, followed by
a number of their friends, were leav-
ing the church when a policeman
with the crowd tapped him on the
shoulder and led him aside. There
was much excitement, and the bride,
when she learned her husband was a
prisoner, swooned. She was taken to
her home in a coach, while Redwenne
was hustled into a patrol wagon.
Redwenne's arrest did not interfere
with the progress of a wedding re-
ception that had been arranged at the
home of the bride.
Redwenne had been arrested for car
rying concealed weapons. and Richly
went his bail in the sun of $500.
When the case was called Redwenne

life Is not all it's cracked up to be.
They were married April IL, 1909,
when the. groom was 10 and the bride
sweet 16.
After honeymooning just four weeks
the boy husband came home n eve
ming and found his clothing and other
belongings waiting for him on the
front porch. He gathered them up,
and without waiting to kiss his wife
"good-by'' he found his way back to
his parents home.
Not dong afterwards the sheriff
called on the young man and invited
him to spend three days in the New
ark Jail because his wife insisted that
he had forgotten all about her and
had failed to provide for her.
While he was in Jail the wife, ac-
cording to the testimony, took advan-
tage of the safety of his absence and
invited a gentleman friend to call one
evening. Her sister, Mrs. Elizabeth
KNITTED. who was married in 1906, was
also present with her gentleman
friend"
-Four more unlimited guests were
later added to this merry quartet
that were spending the night at 81
Pierce street. The unlimited guests
were Policemen Sebold, Muller, Lun-
ney and Kass, of the Fourth precinct.
AS a result of this intrusion on the
part of the officers of the law. Will
lam KNITTED obtained a divorce from
his wife recently and today the testi-
mony of the Knitted divorce case was
duplicated in the suit brought by
young Breitweg.
The four cops furnished the entire
case and their testimony was heard
by Special Master Algernon I. Swee-
ney, who recommended a decree.

Defective wiring beneath the tiled
roof of the house is believed to have
been the cause of the fire. which was
first discovered at 4;40 p. m, when a
piece of plaster fell from the ceiling

who was reading in her room. The
maid, when she looked out and saw
the smoke issuing from crevices In

The domestic staff made the best use

young men had seen the fire from a
distance and hurried over to render
assistance. In this, however, they
found themselves thwarted. for one

and refused to allow them to enter
the house. This man they brushed
aside and after they had turned in al

furniture and some valuable books.
So intent were the young men or

JERSEY IS FACING
ANOTHER PRIMARY

TRENTON, June 24.-Either Taft
or Roosevelt may be without an cleo
toral ticket in New Jersey next No
vember. This peculiar condition is
possible by reason of the provisions
of an amendment to the Geran ele-
ton law, embodied in a bill intro
duced by Senator Leavitt, of Mercer
county, which passed at the last SEES
sion Of the Legislature.
Former Governor Fort, one of the
Roosevelt leaders in the State, is said
to have sent word from Chicago to
a friend here that the Roosevelt ele-
ment would take advantage of the
situation and bend every effort to
sweep the electoral nomination for
the colonel at the fall primaries in
September next with the unanimity
shown in the choice of national dele
gates.
Formerly Jersey Republicans nomi-
mated candidates for electors in their
State conventions. The Geran law of
1910 changed this by providing for
nomination by direct primaries, but
before this act could become effective
as respects presidential electors the
law was amended by the Leavitt bill.
AS the law now stands, the presi-
Dental preference primary relates
only to preferences and to national
delegates and a~lternates. Presiden-
tial electors are to be chosen by a
unique convention, composed of the
men nominated in September next
for the lower House and the Senate,
the hold-over senators and the gov
ernor, who sits only in the conven-
ton of his own party.
Thus the September primary will
witness another vigorous contest be-
tween the Taft and Roosevelt forces,
and candidates for the Assembly and
the Senate will be required to pledge
themselves to vote for Taft or Roose-
welt electoral nominees, as the case
may be.
The provisions Of the amended
Geran law, which constitutes Assem-
bly, nominees members Of the con-
vention to determine who shall be
the party nominees on the electoral
ticket, have been closely studied by
lawyers here, and they declare that a
majority faction in this convention
have the right to name all of the
electors.
If this contention be true, the pos
sibility suggests itself of a ticket in
November with the regular Republi-
can label and bearing the names of
electors pledged to support Roosevelt
instead of Taft.
Taft men scout the idea that
Roosevelt can repeat at the Septem-
Der primary the victory he achieved
In May, but they do not conceal their
disrelish for the new-fangled legis-
ton, which introduces a novel and
confusing principle in primary cleo
ton law, under the pretense of re-
form and simplicity.
