ASKS DIVORCE FROM
GERALDINE FARRAR
Lou TelIengen Claims She Has De-
serted Him-Evidently Wife
Starts the Trouble.

NEW YORK, Aug. 6.-Lou Tellegen,
actor, has filed suit for separatiO from
his wife, Geraldine Farrar, opera singer,
on a charge of desertion, it was an
nounced last night by Tellegen's counsel.
The suit, according to Tellegen's attor-
ney, followed letter received a week ago
from Miss Farrar's lawyers telling him
that certain differences, which were not
then made public, could be talked over in
the law office.
In the meantime, the letter said, Telle-
gen was not to approach his wife nor to
enter her home. He found the lock of
their residence changed and was denied
admission, his counsel asserted. Servants
told him his wife was out of the city.
Mr.. Tellegen, his counsel declared, at
tempted for several days to get into com
munication with his wife before filing his
suit but met with no success. Friends
said that his wife visited him at Long
Branch, \. J., several times during the
three weeks Immediately preceding the
receipt of her letter. No explanation of
their differences was offered.
Alvin Untermyer, counsel for Miss Far
rar, declared last night that his client had
not been served with any papers what
wise, nor had he received any such papers
for Der.
The fake proceeding in which Tellegen
is so disgracefully indUlging. Mr.. Inter
myer said, would justify her in her de
termination to have nothing to do with
him. Miss Farrar does not propose to try
her case in the newspapers and regrets
it has become necessary to make this state
ment in her behalf"
AIr. Untermyer declined to disclose
Miss Farrar's whereabouts.

NEW YORK, Aug. 6.-Bradstreets

Previous reports of current quiet but

ton may be put better realization of the
strength of commodity prices during July.
Another favorable development of the
week has been the apparent checking in
most states by more or less cOplOus rains
of the deterioration shown in the corn
crop caused by past heat and drouth. 1t
may be added, however, that the crop
prospect is not entirely a favorable one.
Other features of the week have been Il
continuance of the relative steadinesS of
the stock market after its creeping

AlI-RuSsian Famine Committee Acts TO
Aid 6,5O0.OO Starving
Children.

NEW YORK, Aug. 6.-From two
sources last night came word of prepar-
atiOns being made to relieve Russia 5
starving millions.
a cablegram from the Russian tele-
graph agency received here by the pub
LEGATION Soviet Russia, stated that the
All-Russan famine relief committee had
sent out two relief trains from Moscow
on the first to aid 6.5O0.000 starving chill
dren in the Volga drought district.
At the same time the American re-
lief administration announced that it's
child-feeding operations in CzechOslO-
vakia would end in 60 days. releasing an
experienced staff for Russia.
Cessation of the Czechoslovakia relief
after two years work there was not has
tened by the Russion situation, but re-
suited from the fact that the Czech
child welfare commissioner was now
ready to assume the task of caring for
its own people, the administration ex-
planned.
The Russian telegraph agency cable
gram said that all state theatres would
devote the month to benefitperformances
for the famine sufferers, with stock COM
panies touring prosperous regions. Adj

Henry l.. Marshall Is NiOlatOr OF
Customs and Prohibition Laws.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 6.-The dry
boundaries of the United States were set
II miles out at sen yesterday. The old
three-miIe zone, bordering which booze
running craft might scurry unmolested,
became a thing of the past.
That momentous decision was reached
by the United States attorney general s
office in giving authorization to United
States Attorney William Hayward of
New York to bring libel proceedings
against the British schooner Henry l..
Marshall, seized by coast guard men off
the Jersey shore.
For in searching for the law, and in de-
terminng how far the law would reach,
the attorney generals Office came to the
conclusion that liquor cargo carrying
would be subject to actions under sections
of the revised statutes dealing with SNUG
Cling and the transfer of cOntraband
goods at sea within u miles of shore.
The decision of the government TO press
the case against the Britisher came after
some hours of doubt and only after Mr.
Hayward had laid his case fully before
Acting Acknowledgement Golf and they
had gone over the evidence in a thorough
discussion.
Then it was announced that Mr.. Hay
wards investigation had shown that the
schooner had violated both the Nolstead
and the custom laws. The alleged Snug
CLING act violation, if upheld as grounds
for checking the operations of rum run
ming craft, will put an end to the hopes of
those American citizens who were still
hoping that real booze may yet be brought
into the country. The three mile limit.
which used to be a sort of joke, now ap
pears to have been a sad joke.
Acting Attorney General Golf. until
receipt of Mr.. Haywards record of evil
dence in the Marshall case appeared to
be in doubt. as to the grounds for the
seizure. and even expressed the opinion
informally that the action of the coast
guard captain appeared to have been of
doubtful legality" Later facts. how
ever changed his attitude and he said it
now seems clearly established that the
schooner was a violator and liable to pen
altiPs of the customs and prohibition laws.
Forfeiture of the vessel is likely, Col.
Golf said
Mr.. Golf said he withdrew his summons
to District Attorney Hyward to come to
Washington in connection with the case
when the latter by telephone disclaimed
responsibility for certain statements at
tributed to him. Mr.. Hayward in his
statement to Colonel Goff said:
Il have made no declaration whatever
of any intention to seize any ships. /
did not have anything to do with sezng
the ship Marshall. | did not know she
had been seized until she was in quar-
antine; then l made an investigation and
reported the facts to the department by
wire and asked for Instructions
Although the chief violations alleged to
have been committed by the Marshall
were in the jurisdiction of the district
attorneys for New Jersey and Brooklyn,
acting Attorney General Golf said Mr..
Hayward, in whose district the schooner
is now held, was authorized to proceed
against the vessel in such manner as the
facts may warrant.

In the DAYS of eIuttons.

1t Is believed men do not eat as
heartily or as gluttonously as they did
a few centuries ago. In the Fifteenth
century, and in England and continental
Europe, such meats as crane, heron,
peacock, seal, swan, porpOise and
whale were, if not everyday dishes, at
least common in their appearance on
the tables of many men, and by the
prosperous and rich 1t was not consid-
cred a great extravaganza to serve
the tongues of larks and peacocks.
Hedgehog, we'll cooked, was thought a
delicious dish, and it is said that it is
so thought OF now by European and
American Gypsies-or gypsies that
wander through America.
