HUSBAND GETS T|PFROM CASE
 IF VALENTINE
Seeks to Have. Marriage An nulled; Declares Welded
 Before Divorce Final

NEW YORK, Oct. 19.-Wealth does not always bring happiness. That is about the only point of agreement be- tween Nelson J. Peabody, publisher, with offices in New York, Boston and Chicago, and his wife, Lola. Mir. Pea body has instituted suit for annullment of his marriage on the ground that, like Rodolph Valentino. movie star his wife was married to him before her divorce became final. Today Supreme Court Justice Wagner granted Mrs. Peabody $100 week alimony and $750 counsel fees pending settlement of the case.
 This is Mrs. Peabody's side of the story, contained in an affidavit:
 When he was a poor man strug- gled together with him; I washed cooked and scrubbed in order to assist him. When he became wealthy shar- ed in his prosperity. Now that he is in receipt of a fabulous income he in- stitutes an action to annul our mar riage, claiming that it is void by req son of a technicality. Then he seeks to starve me into submission"
 MT. Peabody denied he ever sought to avoid his duties as a husband and charged that while he was absent from home, suites occupied by him and his wife at various hotels had been used whom he names.
 MT. Peabody says that he at first contemplated a divorce suit but up on reading newspaper accounts of the Valentino case, decided that suit to annul would be his proper recourse. He based his action on the contention that when the defendant became his wife on October 6. 1910 she was still the wife of James Sargent, formerly of Chicago, because a decree granted in California that September was still fin the interlocutory stage"

J. ]. REPLY TO
 BRITISH NOTE
Defer Action; Seizure Protest Is Now Known to Be
 Wider in Scope

WASHINGTON, Oct 19-Represen tations of the British government to the state department in protesting against seizure beyond the three mile limit of the Canadian schooner Emer- aid. held as a liquor smuggling sus- pect, were of wider scope, it was learned today than at first known. In addition to dealing with the specific case of the Emerald, the British com munication presented the view that the recent American executive order limiting prohibition enforcement Op- erations to territorial waters should apply to all previous seizures of Brit ish craft where it had not been estab- lished as a matter. of fact that the vessel was sending contraband ashore in her own boats
 The American answer to this claim that the governments present policy should have retroactive effect and au- tomatically release certain number of British vessels seized as smugglers would be deferred until official data as to the Emerald case is at hand.

BRITISH DE EBT COMMISSION TO

Postponement of Mission Is Only Immediate Effect in
 U. $. of Premiers Fall
FULL OF COMPLICATIONS
Status of Ambassador Geddes May Be Affected by Change
 in British Government

WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.-(By the Associated Press) Fall of Lloyd George government gripped the atten- ton of official circles here today, both governmental and diplomatic, although no direct immediate effect of the change in the British ministry further than additional delay in the British debt funding negotiations was expect ed to be apparent in relations between the United States and Great Gritain. The London cabinet crisis is full of possible future complications for all other governments, including the United States. however, and a clear understanding of what is ahead it was said, depended very largely on the pro gress made by Premier-designate Bon ar Law, in his attempt to form new cabinet
 The immediate result of the crisis already felt in Washington is the pos ponement of the coming to this coun- try of the British debt commission headed by Sir Robert Herne, chan eellor of the eXchequer in the Lloyd George government.
 Preparations for discussinn of the problem of refunding the British war issues of long term British securities had been made by the treasury and state departments. It appeared to be doubtful to officials here today, how ever, when the political situation in London would be sufficiently clarified to permit British commission to be sent. There is little doubt here that ultimately the refunding negotiations will be carried out practically along the lines already mapped out, all though it is admitted that new cab inet arising after general election might change British policy at to war debt refunding.
 Another possible direct element in the situation affecting the United States is the status of Ambassador Geddes. Tn recent years, the British

Out of the names of a multitude of candidates for the na- tional commandership, those of Will liam F. Deegan of New York and AL win M.

"One of Leading Families of New Brunswick" Involved

NEW BRUNSWICK, N. J., Oct. 19.- (By the Associated Press)-The latest investigation into the slaying of the Rev. Edward Wheeler Hall and Mrs. Eleanor Reinhardt Mills, choir leader which the authorities have been guard ing with such secrecy that they have considered it essential to remove their headquarters to Boundbrook, N. J., leads directly into the home of 'one of the leading families of New Bruns- wick" a county official said tonight.
 This official who declined to permit his identity to be revealed, is known to be in very close touch with the county prosecutors.
 "The authorities are in possession of something with which the public has not been acquainted and which is be- ing jealOusly guarded" he said, We all sincerly believe that it contains the solution of the crime"

FUR STATE CLAIMS
 TWINS BORN
McNally Testifies That Babies Were Born December Last
 in Chicago Hospital

HAMMOND, Ind, Oct. 19.-Frank McNally, middle aged factory worker who accuses his wife of murdering twin babies he says were born to her last December asserted at the prelim- mary hearing today that Mrs. McNally took the children to a hospital in Chi cago last January and returned with two dolls which she substituted for the babies.
 Mrs. McNally, who claims that the twins were never born and that she hoodwinked her husband and neigh bors by using dolls in order to satisfy her husbands ambition to be known as a father, was unperturbed by her husbands testimony.
 McNally testified the twins were born December last, asserted that he had seen them and that they were alive.
 Miss Catherine Griffiths, F year old daughter of the nurse who attended Mrs. McNally was an important state witness today. She said she learned Mrs. McNally was. to become a mother when she accompanied her to bath ing beach in 1921. She asserted that after the time McNally says the twins were born, she had seen the babies in bed. alive and kicking and also saw one of the babies nursing.
 Merit Metz, an acquaintance of the McNallys said he had seen Mrs. Nc Nally early last December and that she was approaching motherhood,
 Mrs. Anna Hartman, a neighbor of Mrs. McNally, also testified she had seen Mrs. McNally in December and that she was soon to become mother. It was expected that when McNally concludes his testimony tomorrow the midwife who McNally says attended his wife when the twins were born would be put on the stand, possibly as the last witness for the state. Mrs. McNally who appears to consider the affair lightly was expected to be among the first witnesses for the de fense.

YOUNG VICTIM
 TEST TIES GN ! HAVING CHARGE
Enters Court on Clutches to Appear Against Chandler,
 Ariz., Midshipman

ANNAPOLIS, Oct. 9.-Midshipman William H. McGregor, of Bremerton, Wash, today testified that he was the victim of hazing of brutal nature, and suffered muscular and other in juries that compelled his removal to the naval hospital, where he had been a patient for the last two weeks, be- fore the naval court martial, which was assembled at the naval academy few days ago for the trial of such cases The midshipman on--trial for the offense is Bruce H.

 The young midshipman testified slowly and apparently cautiously sig nifying first that he had submitted to the physical stunts" by reason of his being familiar with certain traditions that prevail among the student body at the naval institution, but finally ad- mitted under examination that he suf- fered cruelty, indignity, humiliation hardship and oppression" as set forth in the charges and specifications against midshipman Robinson,

King Summons Bonar Law to Form New Government;
 Victory For Younger

LONDON. Oct 19.-(By the Asso- ciated Press) After holding the off, flee of prime minister through seven of the most critical years of British history-three years of war and four years of reconstruction-David Lloyd George went into the wilderness today
 This was the description in his Man chester speech of his position if the Unionist wing of his followers should desert him. Unionist withdrawal from the coalition was decided upon today by the meeting which Austen Chamberlain had called at the Carl ton Club and which was attended by the coalition members of the house of commons and a handful Of lords who were enrolled in the cabinet.
 The vote was 1s6 to S7 against the Chamberlain policy of pledging the party to sustain the coalition and in favor of d general election to confirm its course. The meeting was followed by a succession of swift events which carried the coalition government into outer darkness.
 Andrew Bonar Law will put on the premier's mantle for a short term Of office. The king summoned him to Buckingham palace tonight and in yited him to form new government, which Mir Bonar Law will undertake. although the state of his health. which compelled him to withdraw from pub lie life few months ago, makes it risky venture.
 Before MT. Bonar Law can formally accept the premiership. however. a meeting Of the unionist party must be held to elect a new leader to carry out the policy to te decided by caucus This meeting will be held within a few days when Mir Bonar Law will be chosen
 Between the Carlton club meeting and Bonar Laws visit to the king. it was a seething afternoon of rumors and a group gathering among the po- litical factions. Austen Chamberlain first voiced the prime minister's off cial resignation as had been expected to offer his resignation: several under secretaries and the chief coalition unionist whip. Lieutenant Colonel Leslie Wilson, had already informed the newspapers that they had resign ed and within two hours Mir Lloyd George was in possession of the resis- nations of practically all the mem bers of the cabinet Hethen drove to the palace to tender them to the king

ADMIRAL PLAYS MS MANAGEM MENT
 IF WA5HINGTON
Declares Navy Not Properly Handled Because of Mis-
 takes of Department
PEOPLE UNINTERESTED
Says Nation Which Has Most Airplanes and Submarines
 Will Control Next War

CLEVELAND, Oct. 19.-(By the As sociated Press)-The United States navy was not prepared for war in 1917. is no better prepared today than it was then and never will be prepar- cd under the present organization plan, Admiral Sims recently retired from the United States navy, declared here in an address today before the City Club.
 The navy department at Washing ton bungled and mismanaged the fleet during the war and since the war there has been no clear indication of a disposition to put the navy into fighting trim, Admiral Sims asserted.
 "The navy has not been properly handled" Admiral Sims said, be cause Of mistakes made at Washing ton. You know nothing of these ex- cept what those in control at Wash ington wanted you to know. When came back from the war I could have sat tight and let things take their course or could expose the mistakes in the hope that they would not be made again.
 Had done the former, could be walking along with MT. Daniels today figuratlvely speaking, bedecked with gold braid up to my elbows. A con. gressional investigation was made af- ter the war and all the Republicans were certain the majority report was correct and all Democratic unhesitat- ingly accepted the minority report. But the people as a whole were not interested. There was no one, no great newspaper interested enough to dig out the facts of the evidence from behind the great smoke screens of irrelevant matter. Don't blame con gress for American unpreparedness. Congressmen do only what their con stituents want them to do.
 Touching on the airplane and sub- marine in future wars. Admiral Sims declared that the country which has the preponderance of this type of fight ing craft will control the situation whenever they appear in sufficient numbers to overwhelm the aircraft and submarines of the enemy
