OF ENGLISHMAN

Pittsburg Lawyers Say Marriage Falls of itself Because Of Technical Irregularities In Securing of License.

SAY THERE IS NO NEED FOR COURTS TO ANNUL.

Claimed Thaw's Sister Has Always Been Single Whether or Not Earl Fulfilled His Marital Duties.

Pfttaburg, Jan. K. "Miss Alice 'thaw and the Earl of Yarmouth were never legally married" is the startling etatement made here to-day.

Certain, lawyers and attaches of the

marriage license office eonllrm the

(statement. While they admit that the

illegality of the marriage is baaed on

techicalitiea, they declare that the

English courts must see there is no

need to annul such a marriage; that Harry K. Thaw's favorite sister is a

single woman and always has been whether or not the mercenary and ef

fominate Earl fulfilled his marital du

ties. Besides, these lawyers point to certain facts as proving that Yarmouth has always known that the marriage was not legal; that, indeed he silly made it so in order that the separation of the coupie might be easier when he bhould desire it. When the marriage license was taken out Yarmouth went to the office unaccompanied by any member of the Thaw family. The law states distinctly that the bride-to-be must either be present or be represented by her guardian or a parent. The languid Yarmouth seemed profoundly bored While be answered the license clerk's question and often asked "Have I got to answer all this?" He gave bis name as George Alexander Seymour, but he signed the docket Only with his courtesy title "Yarmouth." So the lawyers argue that he never signed his name to the docket, as the law requires, and that the license was issued illegally. Further on this point: On the day of the wedding a clerk in the marriage license office took the docket to Iyndtiurst, where Miss Alice Thaw signed it. The attorneys claim this would be ample ground upon which to declare the marriage void, for under the Pennsylvania law a minister cannot marry a couple unless the license has been properly taken out. Attaches of the marriage license office admit that such lax methods would not. be permitted today. They likewise admit that everyone about the office was so excited over his part in the marriage of the wealthy Pittsburg girl to a real nobleman that they did not take the precautions they should have taken. Some time ago a local law firm took a copy of the page of the docket containing the record of the Yarmouth license, and a photograph was made of the page. It was rumored at the time that this was to enter into proceedings to be instituted by Yarmouth for a separation because of testimony at Harry Thaw's trial that there is insanity in his family.

LONG DEBATES CERTAIN.

HOUSE COMMITTEE WILL INSIST ON HAVING SOMETHING TO SAY CONCERNING MONEY LEGISLATION.

Washington, Jan. t) The situation

; in Congress over currency letrislatiou ; is complicated. It seems reasonably certain that the Ahlrieh bill will go through the Senate, but not until after considerable debate. The minority seems disposal to support it, provkled it is amended in a few particulars. ; So far the only distinct objection made j to it by the democrats is that it pro

They are disposed' to believe that the only effect of the proposed law would be to give the New York bankers more money with which to speculate. At any rate, they want to hear from their constituents before commiting themselves. The House committee on banking and currency is inclined to resent the adoption of a program which proposes to pass legislation without consulting this committee. Iiylooks as if the committee would insist on the House considering a bill which it will shortly report. Whether this bill will embody all of the ideas of the Fowler bill introduced yesterday afternoon

Miss Mary Stnbbs. chief of the Indiana bureau of statistics, has been asked to gather information about , sheep-killing dogs and she ha-s consented. Great, impressive-looking blanks are now being prepared and these will be sent out by the auditor of state to county assessors. It is the county assessors who must "snitch" on the dog population. Then next year all this information will be used as a powerful weapon to exterminate the undesirable dogs. Bill to be Introduced. "You see it's like this." said Miss Stubbs, as she threw aside her work just as though she were talking to a bunch of politicians, "I have been asked to gather this information about dogs so that it may be used in crystallizing sentiment in favor of a bill against dogs that kill sheep. You remember such a bill was introduced in the last legislature and failed to pass."

The Tuna a Mighty Leaper. Exactly how high a tuna can leap it is difficult to say. I have seen the water beaten into a foam by them fovr miles distant and have a photograph showing a fish a black streak, at lenst a mile distant, high in air, a jump of certainly ten or fifteen feet, and it is my opinion, based on what I haveseen, that it is possible for a lusty tuna at full speed to project itself twenty feet into the air and thirty or forty feet in a horizontal direction. I judge the latter iossible from the leap of a big tuna which cleared the kelp and landed high on the rocks at Santa Catalina. I have often stood in the center of a school of leaping tunas and watched them, but the situation is not one suggestive of repose or peace of mind. Chsrles F. Holder la Outing Magazine.
