Edith Marx says in a divorce Pc
tition filed in district court that
her husband frequently remarked in
the last year that he was sorry he
had married her. She says he asked
her ito go her way and he would
60 his, telling her that he preferred
that she go away. On March Is he
packed his grip and left her, she
says. She asks a divorce, custody
Of their child and ali allowance for
the child's support.
Julia Wilson alleges in a petition
for divorce filed in district court
that she was compelled to leave her
common law husband, James VIII
son, on January 8, 1919, because she
could no longer endure his brutal
treatment
They contracted their common
law marriage, she says, in 1908.
"He is unfit to be the associate of
any decent woman" says Mrs. Net
tie Koking in her suit for a divorce
from Ben Koking, filed in district
court. They were married in Maple
River, Ia, in 1905.
Married life began to get unpleas-
ant after they had a marriage cere-
mony performed, according to the
divorce petition filed in district court
by Pauline Farley against William
Farley. They had the ceremony
performed September II, 1917, but
had lived together as husband and
wife for nine years before that, says
Mrs. Farley. Since September IL.
1917, her husband has assaulted and
beat her and compelled her to do
mans work on the farm, she says.
Mrs. Farley says she and her hus-
band have accumulated property
worth $1,000 and she asks half of
this and also alimony of SIS a

ADVOCATED By
COMMERCE BODY
U. S. Chamber of Commences
Speakers Advocate Return
Of Railroads and Power !!
to Consolidate. {

ST. Loais, Mo-. April 2o.-Forelgh
trade and transportation will be i'm
portant factors in Americas future
prosperity and should be given clos
est study by the public. speakers de-
clared today at the trade convention
Of the United States Chamber OF
Commerce.
George E. Smith, president Of
the American Manufacturers Export
association, expressed the sentiment
of the foreign trade section of the
convention when he said: Foreign
trade represents more than an OPP
portunity, it represents a RESPONSE
bility that we cannot shirk.
+ american machinery and inven-
tive genius belongs to the world
more than ever at this time. Sound
business Judgment and our duty to
humanity command us to become q
real exporting nation" he said.
Want Railroads Returned.
The railroad committee today sub
mitted a report opposing govern
ment control and operation OF rail-
roads and urging that the roads be
returned to their owners as soon as
remedial legislation can be enacted"
1t recommended further that. in
the public interest, roads be permit
ted to consolidate into strong conf
peting systems, so located that each
Of the principal traffic centers shall.
if possible, be served by more than
one system"
Other recommendations included
creation of federal transportation
board to promote development OF .
national system of rail, water and
highway transportation.
The public utilities committee also
submitted q report declaring that
the street railway industry through
out the country had reached crit

OMAHA GRAIN MOVEMENT.
Receipts.
RECEIPTS IN OTHER MARKETS.
Chicago Grain and Provisions.

Chicago. April 2s.--Overwhelming rushes
TO sell swept all grain and provision prices
trade. The biggest fall was in corn and
pork, respectively. II nc bushel and $3.50
barrel. Action, which the board of
trade officials and the federal wheat d.
rector had initiated against excessive cost
Of foodstuffs. did much to force the ava
lanche Of unloading. Besides long
threatened free movement Of corn and
hogs from rural sources had finally I'M
been winners by anticipating the skyward
flight of the market. Closing prices Of
corn were excited at the lowest point Of
the session, a net decline OF ~ to 11hc,
Der, sl5i to s1.51h. Oats lost ~ to Shc
and provisions. zoe to $3.50.
Weakness of prices in the corn market
was evident as soon as trading opened.
received In their morning mail notice to
report any open deals in July and Septem-
Der corn OF more than 100000 bushels.
This notice implied that any undue specu-
higher living cost were about to be curbed
with ruthless hand. Then the liberal
arrivals of corn and hogs here from the
country further unsettled the confidence
support. On the ensuing downward
plunge Of values. stop-loss orders to sell
owing to exhausted margins were uncov-
cred in profusion. At this juncture when
LQo PIT was hlEoduy Ill
nouncement was made that the govern
ment would largely discontinue purchases
of wheat flour for export. and II neces-
sary. to stop speculative fervor for high
prices would throw off all import re-
strictions on foreign wheat and flour.
The immediate result was paralysis of
demand for corn. Violence Of the breaks
in the market now reached the acme as
the closing gong drove the perspiring
crowd of brokers from the floor.
Oats tumbled with corn.
Provisions shared in the furry Of SELL
ing brought on by the same factors that
swept the grain markets downward. Buy
ers were hard to find.

New York Coffee.

New York, April 2s-An early advance
on trade and speculative buying sent the
market for coffee futures into high ground
for the movement today. July sold at
1850 and December at 17.14c, or II to
so points above last nights closing fig
ures Houses with New Orleans connec-
tons were good buyers on the advance,
which was accompanied by reports that
hedges were being covered against busi-
ness in the spot market and that spot
prices were advancing There may also
have been some buying on private cables
from Brazil reporting strong primary
markets, but the advance met a great
deal OF realizing and there was sharp
break In the afternoon in consequence
Part OF the selling came from houses with
western connections and may have been
influenced by the weakness in grain. July
closed at 1880 bid. while December sold
off to 1850, with the market closing net
unchanged to Is points lower. May

TO GIVE TENTH OF INCOME.
Methodists 10 Abolish passing the
Hat Custom.

Within the next few weeks every
Methodist in Abilene as well as III
the entire United States viii be given
an opportunity TO sign pledge
nromising 10 give one-tenth of his In
come TO the church. The pledge 1t Is
said. will be ms sacred ms the mar.
rage vow and holds good thru life.
II is the opinion of the authorities
TINT this viii bring enough money
into the church to pay all bills, carry
on war reconstruction work, extend
the mission fields, maintain hospi-
falls. colleges and schools and, In fact'
TO do MI work that the church enters
into. The ultimate idea, of course IS
to get the signature OF every Metho-
dist on the pledge.
Should the plans be worked out
on the MAGNITUDE provided by this
field It is very possible that no more
will the Methodist church give lee
cream socials, bazaars and other af-
fairs which usually cost more in la
Dor than is obtained in receipts.
No more will the small hoy at
church with his mother have occas-
ion to say, "Mother that man did not
nav his fare" For there will be no
more hat passing at church.

co. E HAS AN ARMORY NOW.
New X. N. q. Company WIN Use
Rooms in A. o. U. w. Hall.

Co. f, the Abilene company of the
national guards, recently organized,
has rented the two downstairs rooms
in the A. O. IT, w. hall and expects to
fix them up to serve as an armory
The members plan to use one room
of their armory for club room and
provide it with the necessary mater
ial for volley ball, boxing, wrestling,
indoor tennis and other amusements.
The company has had two or three
more enlistments since it passed the
preliminary examination last month.
The men who were recommended
to take the examinations for com
missions are studying hard, taking
the regular field service course. They
will be required to take stiff ex-
animation, which will probably be
given in June. However they will
take the preliminary examination as
soon as the regiment is complete and
are all working hard to quality.
