SUES TO ANNUl MARRIAGE
:. w. Strong Alleges Wife's
Reno Divorce Is Invalid.

Mrs. Ella NJ. Strong obtained a divorce
in Reno from her first husband. Raymond
r. France. on the promise OF Frederick
W. Strong. manager OF the legal depart
ment OF the Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany. that he would marry her when she
got her decree. Strong kept his promise.
but now ne has obtained n decree from
Justice Lehman annulins the marriage on
the ground that when he welded Mrs.
France she WAS still the wife OF the man
from whom she had obtained the Reno
divorce-Strong alleging that the Nevada
divorce was invalid.
Mrs Strong said in her answer to her
second husbands suit that II was only
because OF his advice and his promise 70
marry her that she got a divorce from
France. She added that before she went
to Reno Strong obtained money from her
and after their marriage he lived with
her only until her money was exhausted.
She said she had been assured by her
attorney OF the validity of the Reno de-
cree. and when she married Strong she
believed that she had been legally d.
vorced from France.
Counsel for Strong submitted 10 Justice
Lehman copies OF affectionate letters
which Mrs. France wrote to Strong while
she was In Nevada waiting for her d.
vorce. II was admitted that Strong had
asked her to cease writing, because the
letters might fall into hostile hands anc
furnish the basis of a suit by France
against Strong for alienation OF the af
fectons Of Mrs. France.

DEMOCRATS ALARMED
AT TARIFF BILL DELAYS
Senate Leaders Fear Party Will
Be Held Responsible for Dis
turbed Business Conditions.
tFrom The Tribune Bureau. ]

Washington. Aug. 10.-Alarm over the
delay in tariff legislation has developed
20 such a point that the Democratic
leaders in the Senate probably will pro-
pose this week drastic steps for hasten
ing consideration OF the bill. II they can
not cajole the Republicans by amicable
methods into falling in with their plans.
Concern is expressed not so much over
the fate of the measure, although the
Democratic majority Is so slender that
the leaders would welcome the prospect
Of vote or two from the minority side.
as over the delay IL has encountered.
The bill was reported from the House
three months ago. and more than two
thirds of this time II has been In the
hands Of the Democratic members Of the
Finance Committee or the caucus
The Democrats are beginning TO fear
that they will be held responsible for
failure TO comply with the general de-
mand for speedy action the uncertainty
over the date OF the passage OF the new
law tending 10 disturb business condi-
tons.
While the bill is dragging Its SLOW
length through the Senate opportunity
Is afforded for the CRITICISM mhue
against 1t to be scattered broadcast and
to soak into the minds OF those who are
represented as its victims. This applies
particularly TO the farmers.
There are indications that the Demo-
Gratis would be willing to accept amend
ments to the agricultural schedule in
response TO the charge that the farmer
is being Disseminated against, If they
could gain vote or two thereby and
hasten the final vote on the measure.
Democratic leaders I'm the Senate are
demanding that the screws be applied
by the chairman Of the Finance Commit
tee and that II no agreement can be
reached with the Republicans on date
for voting longer sessions be made the
rule and the Senate be forced 10 keep
