If the purpose 6f the principals is fulfilled the international side of the controversy will be cleared up leaving the question of selecting a provisional Piesider.t and other internal problems to a conference of representatives of the constitutionalists and the Huerta government.

JFIER COMPROMISE

Candy Man Who Asked $10,000 for Loss of Wife's Affections Accepts $875 in Settlement.

Eiser against George Bleemel, the latter by agreement paid Eiser the sum "of $875 In settlement of his claims. The agreement was reached before the introduction of testimony began. Five law firms of this city and Newport were engaged by the defendant in the case, while the plaintiff had four firms remined.

On the trial of the case she was granted a divorce on her cross-complaint and given the custody of the minor child. After the divorce was granted there were further sensations, one of them being the alleged abduction of the child by the father from the mother, .vho was then living in Indianapolis. The ratnei claimed that the child had been taken out of the custody of the court without its permission, and he sought to return it to the court's jurisdiction. The matter was finally settled by placing the boy at Glenn home, where for awhile both parents ware given the privilege of seeing it. The litigation is said to have cost Eiser a small-sized fortune.
