BALTIMORE, Nov. 2T.---Judge
| stump, in the Circuit court, has sign
ed an order requiring Mrs. Theodore
Miller. who before her marriage to
Miller last Saturday, was Mrs. Mary
Taylor Speer, to show cause on or be-
fore December 9Th. why the decree Of
divorce from John Littleton Dawson
Speer, OF Pittsburg, granted to her on
October 3ist. should not be annulled.
Mrs. Miller In now on her honey
moon at Hot Springs. Va.
Mrs. Miller obtained the decree ON
the grounds of desertion. Her first
marriage took place in this city on
April 20. 1892, and Mr.. Speer was
charged with having abandoned her

The couple had three children

Mr.. Speer's chief cause for COM
plant seems to be his dissatisfa ction
with an alleged agreement. by the
terms Of which his wife was made
trustee Of an estate get aside for the
education and care OF the three minor
children. Mr.. Speer says he finally
agreed to give hts house In Pittsburg,
worth $4,000. and insurance policies
for $4,000. to Mrs. Speer Ia trust
for the children. He says Mrs. Speer
did not mention the children in the
bill OF complaint. and that they were
not mentioned in the decree.
He contends that the decree OF df-
yorce should have included the terms
creating the trust estate. so that the
children would be protected, and he
charged that the omission amounts
to fraud. For this reason, Mr.. Speer
asks that the decree be set aside.
