Charges

Jay Elwood Wingate, an advertising
agent. after his alleged abandonment
of her, wrote to Mrs. Amelie Mildred
Wingate that he was through. so far
as their marital affairs were con-

Mrs. Wingate didn't like the letter
and yesterday sued in the Supreme

Cruelty and abandonment arc the
grounds stated by Mrs. Wingate, who
was married to the defendant in 1911.
She charges that one form of Wingate's
cruelty was to return home late at
night, or early in the morning, and
taunt her about other women with
whom he was acquainted.

A crowd of men, believed to be car

had driven up. In the car was John
Connors, the managers chauffeur.
Soon rocks began to fly and the au-
tomobile became the object of a bonn
bardment. Every window IN II was
smashed and Connors was cut on the
head. face and hands by rocks and ny,
Ing glass. The car was badly damaged
before the crowd fed. 1t is believed

now operating the Yonkers cars were
attacked in different parts OF the city
last night. and beaten by strikers.

PREPARE, BRITISH
BISHOP URGESU.S.
Peace Not Sure Unless
Ready to Fight, Rt. Rev.
Yeatman-Biggs Warns

81 have no doubt that we could wish
that your government, or certain Off
GERS of it, would handle certain matters
differently but we have no distrust Of
the American people said the Right
Rev. II. w. Yeatman-Big Bishop OF
Worcester, England the guest Of honor
of the Pilgrims at a luncheon yesterday
at the Bankers Club. The Bishop thus
distinguished between the attitude Of
England toward the Wilson Admins
tration and the attitude toward the
American people.
The Bishop, who has been attending
the general convention Of the Episcopal
Church at st. Louis, declared that ne
was shocked from time to time at the
suggestion of a growing dislike in
England for this country.
Must Be Willing to Fight
81 speak for large number OF Eng
lishmen," he continued, "when | say
that we have no sort Of wish to see you
at war. We know too much of the
horror of war to wish to see your ma
tion embroiled. But | do know that no
nation can be sue of peace if it is not
willing TO fight and does not prepare for
war"
The speaker was heartily applauded
when he said that no Englishman
doubted the outcome of the conflict.
No one could doubt il, he declared, who
saw how those at home bore their sof-
rows and how those in the trenches
bore thqir hardships.
Some day" he said, England and
her fine allies will win another VIC
tory for the freedom of men and the
right of little nations TO be themselves.
But when that is done we shall have
to set our house in order. There will
be new aspects of the relation of cap
ital to labor, new phases of religion
and politics that must find a place II
our new house"
Bishop Yeatman-Biggs said that ne
doubted if the temper of the Allies
would suffer any nation TO suggest
peace at present. He said that ne
would go home assured that whatever
is right and true in the Allied cause
had the support of the best and most
thoughtful people of America.
Americans for Allies
In introducing the Bishop, Chauncey
VI. Depew, vice-president of the Pill
grims. assured him that in spite Of
proclamations of neutrality the moral
force of the vast majority of Amer
leans was with the cause Of the Allies
