Duchess Divorces
DukeOfWe est1ninster
Sensation Lacking
Name of Correspondent Is
Not Revealed at Trial
i'm London; No Defence
Is Entered at Hearing

LONDON, June 1.-THE Duchess of
Westminster was granted divorce to-
day from Hugh Richard Arthur Gros-
venor, second Duke of Westminster, on
the grounds of desertion and miscon-
duct. Counsel for the duke said a
simple denial to the charges had been
entered, but that upon trial the case
had not been contested.
There were no sensational develop
ments at the hearing, although large
crowd was present.
The duchess and her attorney con-
fined themselves to outlining the mar
ried life of the couple, which, while
not altogether happy up to 1909, had
not been marked by any serious quar-
rel. At that time there was a breach
in their relations and in 1918, it was
testified, the duke left his wife. He
wrote her letter, signing it "Ben
dor" the name of a famous race
horse, which said their mode Of living
at that time was impossible and he
offered to give her an allowance of
$4,000 (s65,ooo) year. This the
duchess declined. She said she would
do nothing that might reflect upon
her position as the dukes wife and the
mother of his children. The duke
however, expressed a determination
that the duchess should not live either
at Eton Hall or at Grosvenor House
their residences.
Eventually the dukes actions were
watched, according to the testimony
and it was alleged evidence had been
obtained concerning a meeting with q
woman whose name was not given in
court.
The Duchess of Westminster for
merly was Constance Edwina, daugh-
ter Of Colonel William CORVALLIS
West. She and her husband signed a
separation agreement in 1914. They
were married in 1901 am. have two
children.
The Duke of Westminster served in
Egypt in 1915 and won the D. S. O. for
bravery.

Actresses Flat Robbed:
Detective Wrote Note

The stern Puritan morality of de-
tectives of the New York Police De-
partment kept Miss Fay Banter, the
actress, from learning that her apart
ment at II East Thirty-fifth Street
had been entered and robbed until sew
eral days after the burglary occurred.
Miss Banter, who is now at her
summer home at Sound Beach, Conn.,,
and commutes to work, learned from
newspapermen yesterday that her fiat
had been robbed. She went to it at
once and found under the door note
which read: "Miss F. Baintre: Police
were in your apartment at 2 a. m.
Sunday. When you return please call
up Detective Jennings, Chelsea 6958,
23d Precinct"
Everything in the apartment had
been turned upside down by the bur-
glars, but the actresses main loss, so
far as could be determined, was a case
Of champagne. Considerable silver was
in the apartment, but the robbers ne
elected this for the more precious
booty.
Detective Jennings, when asked why
no effort had been made to inform
Miss BANTER personally, said stoutly
he refused to be seen hanging around
stage doors.

Ice Plans Fail; Coler
Blames Welfare Bodies
Commissioner of Charities Saws
Societies Take Too
Much Credit

Charities Commissioner Bird S.
Coer is almost in despair over the
aggressive policies of the various well
fare work organizations of the city,
which bid fair, in his judgment, to
put departments like his own out of
business. Yesterday he attended the
meeting of the Mayors Ice Committee,
over which City Chamberlain Berolz-
heimer presided. Mr.. Berolzheimer
said he would appoint committee of
seven to lay out plan for the deliv-
cry of ice to the needy poor Plans
had been made for a distribution of
cheap ice, but when the ice companies
studied the plans the 'Knickerbocker
Ice Company would not adopt them,
and announced it's intention to work
with the Baby's. Welfare Committee
entirely. This announcement COM
pletely upset the plans, and new ones
will have to be made.
"lt is evident" said Mr.. Coler, "that
these so-called welfare committees
which have no official standing are
endeavoring to get the credit for do
ing lal the philanthropic work in the
city, and it is. time that they should
be made to understand that the city
is willing and able to take care of its
poor in its own way. These associa-
tlons have been growing year by year,
and if we are going to let them do
everything we might as we'll shut up
shop"

Plea for Economy Sent
Rail Workers by Hines
You Must Help Meet Deficit or
Rates Will Go Up, Is
Directors Warning

WASHINGTON, June 17.-Walker
D, Hines, Director General of Rail-
roads, has sent letter to all rail en-
ployes under his jurisdiction, calling
attention to the heavy deficits which
roads under Federal control are sus-
tanning, and urging strictest economy
to cut these down. Unless this is done,
he says, rates will have to be raised
and increase in the cost of living will
result.
Mr.. Hines points out that for the
first four months of this year the
deficit amounted to about S250,OO0, 900,
or about $62,500,000 month His let
ter says, in part:
"These deficits, so far as they can
not be eliminated through greater
economies and through increased bust
ness, will eventually have to be offset
by increased transportation rates
which all should endeavor to avoid.
81 ask every officer and every en-
pYoye to redouble his efforts to do
efficient work, to economize and to
use great care not to injure equip
ment or property being transported
and for which payment must be made
if injury occurs.
"You are interested in the great
movement for the improvement of the
condition of the individual worker.
You can aid in that great movement,
through efficiency and saving in reduc-
ing the cost of railroad operation, be-
cause thereby you help to keep down
transportation rates, and thereby you
help to keep down the cost of living"

serve American ideals and institutions

given forceful expression to-day by
Attorney General Palmer, in a COM

"There is no room, as there is no
need, in this country" Mr.. Palmer
said, "for those who resort to violence
to impress their ultra radical views
upon the people or the government.
They will get nowhere by such methods.
"The government proposes to pro-

shown itself able 20 protect itself
against attacks from without. Neither
the government or any of its officers
will be embarrassed or affected, much
less frightened, by any attempts, or
ganized or unorganlzed, by lawless ele-
ments in the community to terrorize
and stampede the government into do
ing something contrary to the spirit
of our free institutions as designed by
the fathers and sustained by all the
generations of men through the life
Of this republic.

ical desire to incorporate in our body

provided by the constitution, shall so

Yesterday. Mrs. Greer was seventy
nine years old. This is the second
death in the Greer family since the
death of the Bishop in May, Bishop
Greer's brother having died several
days after the death of the Bishop.
Mrs. Greer was not informed of the
death of her husband until many days
after it occurred, because at the time
she was under the care Of physicians
and nurses and it was feared that the
knowledge of her husbands death
would kill her.
She was born in St. Louis and was
educated in private schools in Coving-
ton, Ky, where the late Bishop married
her in 1869 and where she lived the
greater part of her life.

later developed into broncho-pneu-
monia. She died at $3.50 o'clock yester-
day afternoon in the Bishops resi-

Divine. She is survived by two daugh-
ters and two sons. The funeral will be

Woman and Man
Arrested as Reds
In Philadelphia
Alleged to Have Been Dis
tributing Literature Like
That Found i'm Vicinity
of Recent Bomb Outrages
Special Correspondence

PHILADELPHIA, June 17-Lydia
Vanacias, Russian anarchist, who
claims home in Brooklyn, but who
has been under the surveillance of the
pdlice of dozen cities, was arrested
to-day with Samuel Miller, who lives
here
They were taken into custody while
distributing radical literature similar
in text and portent to the circulars
found near the scene of the bomb out
RACES in this city. Both were held in
81 900 bail for a further hearing to-
morrow, while the police of New York
and Richmond have been notified to
look into several clews found in the
mans room.
These are paper wrappers stamped
with the trademarks real or spurious,
Of Saks & Co., New York, and Thai
heimer & Bros, of the southern city
Detective Mahoney, who examined
these wrappers to-day, said he believed
the anarchists secured one of the origi-
nails and copied the style and the
punch hole in fake wrappers which
were used for other purposes.
The emphasis which the members of
|
ures lies in the fact that the Internal
mails to a number of influential men
just before May day were inclosed in
wrappers bearing the trademark of an
other New York department store
The owners of the establishment de-
clared them spurious.
The prisoners were sullen and de-
fiant' when questioned by the bomt
squad. They refuse to reveal where
the circulars they had were printed
nor would the woman tell where she
had met the man or where she made
her home while in this city. Both
avowed they we're anarchists, and botl
said they would welcome deportation
to Russia. They declared they were
working to overthrow the present gov
ernment and they wanted to establish
a soviet republic. Miller was recog-
nized as a frequenter of the centra
soviet or headquarters of the National
Council of Russian workers here.
About 2:30 o'clock policeman near
Amber and Ontario streets saw a mar
and woman placing circulars under the
doorways Of the houses in that vicn-
ity. He arrested them. When searched
they were found to have copies of "The
Anarchist Soviet Bulletin" which bore
the notation, Vol. i, No. 3, and was
issued for June.
The language and the tipping were
so similar to the anarchistic circulars
of the bomb outrages that the bomt
squad was notified of the arrests. De
tectives went to the rooms and gath.
cred in the rest of the stuff.
The woman is twenty-six years ole
and says she lives at 268 South Firs,
Street, Brooklyn. She was born ir
