NEW YORK, April 3-The court
 that parted F. Augustus Heinze the
 copper king and his wife Bernice, will

 their child.
 Her lawyer Benjamin F.. Sheltman began the preparation of a remarkable petition today, a few hours after his clients death to eXpunge from the record the interlocutory decree already granted
 T always have loved you, Fritz, l always have hoped some thing would happen to bring you back to me"-were the dying womans words of reconcilia tion with her husband The deathbed scene; her tears and embraces; his as surances of love; his promise to try to fulfill her last WiSh-all these will be written into the records of the state, together with the testimony, under oath of Mrs. Henze's mother, her sis ter and the nurses who stood nearby Never before has the supreme court of New York been petitioned to ex punge the record of a divorce by a voice from the grave
 Had she lived it would have been possible for Mrs. Henze to discontinue ! this action Mir. Spellman said today Because of her love for Heinze and her hope that something would bring i about a reconciliation, she postponed .taking the final decree which might have been entered last month. She | had only until April r to decide 1 whether the decree would be taken.
 Again and again she told me:
 Wait, wait: that decree means death i between my husband and me. To take l it would tear my soul from it's body" Tn the last moments of her life she 1 repeated over and over again the wish 1 that the record be eXpunged. - l Mrs. HeinZes body was sent this afternoon to Toledo. Ohio, for burial.

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

LOS ANGELES, April 3.-The ab- sence today of Ortie McManigal, the confessed dynamiter from his cell in the county jail which he has occupied nearly two years, created much com ment when it was discovered. The jail officials finally announced that Mc- Manigal with Malcolm McLaren, conntv officer but formerly Burns operative, left the county jail in an automobile at five o'clock this morn ing. McLaren could not be found after McManigars departure and the jail authorities declared their responsibility for the prisoners ended when he left the iail in company with the county officers.
 No explanation of McManigars de- parture could be obtained at the dis trict attorneys office. It is generally believed McManigal will eventually be given his freedom, but the authorities have always declared no promises of immunity were made him.

Mother of American Sui fragette in English Jail Does Not Complain at the Alleged Inhuman Treat ment of Her Daughter
U. $. EMBASSY
 MAKES REPORT
That Charges of Cruel Handling of Miss Zelie Emerson Are UnfOlnded Color Problem Enters Suffragists' Meeting
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcH1

" WASHINGTON, April 2.-Charges that Miss Zelie Emerson. an American militant suffragette now in a British prison for window smashing has been subjected to creul and unusual treat ment are unfOunded. according to re- ports to the state department today from Irwin B. Laughlin, in charge of the American embassy at London who personally investigated the case.
 It was reported Mrs. Emerson the prisoners mother, made no com plalnt whatever as to her daughters s treatment, and no charge to make that feeding by the stomach tube has been applied in a manner to cause any discomfort inseparabe from na- ture'
 Her treatment" she says, has not been different in any way from that the same way, unless it be her case has met with more leniency"
 Since she began hunger strike upon her imprisonment. she in com mon with the British offenders. has been fed by d stomach tube in the presence of physicians and under their directions
 Mrs. Emerson has sent q letter to the American charge, MT. Taught Lauglin stating that she has received no reply to her letter to the home secretary and urging Mir. Laughlin to take immediate steps in heg daughters behalf She says that on recent visit to Halloway jail she found her daughter on the verge of a nervous collapse and much emaciated by three weeks of forcible feeding.
 The tube used by the doctors had torn the lining of the nasal passage to such an extent, she asserts, that the process had to be discontinued but the condition of the nose will probably result in permanent disabil- itv unless careful local treatment is received.
 Miss Scott-Troy called on Sylvia Pankhurst tonight with a view to ob- tain her assistance to get letters from Mrs Panl<hurst announced that she could not receive visitors, as the forci- ble feeding to which she has been sub jected in jail had so affected her health that only at intervals did she display sane consciousness.
