LABORI STATES HIS CASE Counsel Declares That Accusations Against Husband Are Without Foundation and Files Counter-Suit - for a Divorce. PA ms, AUrcli IS, Maitre Laborl to day presented to the court the side of t!ie husband in the divorce suit lirought in this city oy Mrs. A. Hart JloKea against Mr. McKee. The first hearing of the case took place March 4. when Mr3. McKee, through counsel, described certain alleged indignities to which she had been subjected by her husband. Today Maitre Laborl made countercharges of a most scandalous character against tho wife and de clared that if the. court granted a di vorce it should pronounce in favor of the defendant, and not in favor of tha plaintiff. .Married to Save Honor. Mrs. McKee is a daughter of George V. Baxter, of Tennessee. She was tho widow of Hugh Tevis at the time of her marriage to Air. McKee in Phlla d' lphi.i in January. 1!00. Maitre Labori declared that Mr. McKee married Mrs. Tevis to save her honor. He mentioned also an Italian Marquis as a co-respondent. Maitre Labori, at the outset, com plained bitterly of the flood of accusa tions against his client, with which he .aid the American press had been tilled. The allegations of Mr. McKec's cruelty to his wife and child and the flagrant wrongdoing were denied, and then, in support of the contention that Mr. and not Mrs. McKee should receive the de cree of divorce, Maitre Labori proceed ed to describe Mrs. McKce's alleged career while she was still Mrs. Tevis. . Makes Definite Charges. He coupled her name with that of Lord Roslyn. and declared that she and Mr. McKee were living together at a hotel two days after they met. Con tinuing, counsel for the husband de clared that his client had paid Mrs. McKce's bills, amounting to $16,000, while she was in the South of Europe, and to disprove tho charge of parsi mony against him, he declared that during a single night McKee had spent $.120 on flowers for his wife. Maitre Labori made charges, but he offered no proof, of Mrs, McKee's mis conduct with Lord Roslyn. His allega tion was based on the fact that Mrs. 'McKee. when she was Mrs. Tevis, and Lord Roslyn stopped at the same hotel in Folkestone. In the case of the Italian Marquis, no other proof was submitted except that Mr. McKee saw hi wife and the Marquis emerging from a gar den together. Maitre 1-a.bori did not conclude his presentation of the case, and the hear ing will be continued March 2i. TRYING TO CORNER KENNY Government Turns Guns on Banker in Land-Fraud Hearing.

The board of governors of the Port land Commercial Club yesterday defin itely settled the date when the club will occupy their quarters 'in the new building. It had been expected that the club would get into their rooms by the beginning of April, but delays have occurred, which Viae made It nec essary to put the date ahead about a month. The governors have been as sured that the principal rooms can be ready on May 1, and decided to fix that date for removal from their present rooms. The rooms that will be positively ready by that date are the dining room and kitchen, billiard-room, secre tary's and manager's offices. Owing to the fact that special furniture and car pets of special design cannot be ob tained at once, the parlors and some of the rooms on the first club floor will not be ready for some days after the time set for moving. Concerning the carpets, after part of the order had been filled word was re ceived by the furnishing committee that the Eastern manufacturer did not have enough in stock to complete the order. The committee was also in formed that the factory had been shut down temporarily and employes laid off. In order not to disappoint the club, however, the manufacturer made a proposal to call his men together at once and start up his factory to com plete the order. From the latest infor mation received the factory has been started again, and the carpets will be sent on as soon as made. Some delay in the manufacture of special-design furniture will hold back the furnishing of the clubrooms as intended, but the goods will be on hand not long after the opening of the rooms. The governors decided yesterday to have a formal opening of the rooms on the first anniversary of the laying of the cornerstone of the building, June 12. Registration at St. John. The number of voters registered in St. John for the city election April 7. yesterday was 550. This leaves about 100 more to register.

The woods are filled with candidates, but each is waiting for the other to file his petition, and every thing is remarkably quiet. All peti tions must be on file in the office of the Recorder by March 26. in order to get on the official ballot. The City Attorney has everything ready for the election. Resolutions have all been passed In due form, providing for a vote on $80,000 in bonds for erection of a public dock and purchase of a site. There will also be a vote on $18,000 of park bonds, to purchase a tract of land near the drydock, overlooking the Wil lamette River. The total amount of bonds to be voted on is $7S.000.

The wirelns telegraph station which has brn erected for the Russian Admiralty bMwwn BevaMox.'ol and Odessa, has under iom a eaUAiactoo' trial FIGHT FATAL DUEL Smirnoff's Wound From Fock Will Bring Death. BOTH RUSSIAN OFFICERS Charges Growing Out of Port Arthur Campaign Lead to Shooting That, Will Be Followed by a Second. ST. PETERSBURG. March 18. Lieutenant-General Smirnoff was probably fatally wounded In a duel fought here this morn ing with Lieutenant-General Fock. The men met in the riding school of the Chevalier Guard Regiment and fought with pistols, a distance of 20 paces sep arating them when the shots were ex changed. The duel -was caused by the memoran dum written by General Smirnoff on the siege of Port Arthur, in which he ques tioned the courage of General Fock. The latter considered that his honor and rep utation were involved and challenged the author of the memorandum. The riding school was placed at the disposal of the combatants by the com mander of the regiment, and the duel occurred with the full knowledge and approbation of the military authorities. It was witnessed by several officers of high rank, and it is even reported that several women were present. Shortly be fore 10 o'clock Generals Fock and Smir noff appeared at the school. Without saluting, they took the places assigned by their seconds. For General Smirnoff the seconds were his brother-in-law, Vladimir M. Puishkevich, a member of the Douma, and Captain Schultze, of the navy, while for General Fock, Captain Sido, Adjutant to General Stoessel, and Lieutenant Podgursky, one of the Port Arthur heroes, officiated. The distance between the two combatants was 20 paces, and the duelists were instructed to open fire at the word of command and continue until one .or the other was killed. At General Fock's fourth shot, Gen eral Smirnoff groaned and sank forward. He had been wounded In the abdomen above the right hip. He was carried in a litter to the military hospital, where doctors this afternoon employed Roentgen rays to locate the bullet. The word "fire" was given each time by General Klreieff, the Russian author ity on dueling. At the second exchange General Fock's coat was perforated. At the third exchange. General Smirnoff accidentally fired prematurely, but Gen eral Fock magnanimously declined to shoot at a defenseless opponent, and the fourth and final shots were then ex changed. This duel will be followed by another between General Fock and General Gor batoffsky, the commander of the west ern front at Port Arthur, who was se verely criticised by General Fock during the court-martial proceedings. General Smirnoff was acting command ant of the Port Arthur during the siege and at the time of its surrender to the Japanese. After his return to Russia he prepared a secret report of the defense of Port Arthur, which was the basis of the indictments on which Lieutenant-General Stoessel. General Fock and Major-General Reiss were tried for their lives be fore the supreme court-martial. General Stoessel was accused of cowardice and incapacity and General Fock, according to the indictment, dis played thorough incapacity and want of judgment. The outcome of the trial was the sentencing to death of General Stoessel, which finding was later com muted tp ten years' imprisonment, while General Fock was ordered to be repri manded for disciplinary offenses. General Smirnoff was also on trial be fore the court-martial charged with having failed to remove General Fock frpm his command, although he suc ceeded in reaching an agreement between Generals Stoessel and Fock to surrender the fortress. He was acquitted of this charge. At the Theaters What the Press Agents Say. "Toymaker at Heilig- Theater.

Ctiit-Cbat of Sporting World Sprightly GoksIp From the Line of MeCredie'a Sore-Muscle Camp In Balmy California. BY "WILL O. MAC RAE. SANTA BARBARA, March 15. (Spe cial.) McCredie and his band of play ers are looking forward to the time that they will break training here and go to Salinas. This burg is an Ideal training place, but the town is a dead one for sports, and McCredie can't re duce his expenses by playing games to the small gate receipts here. ... The songsters on the team are anx iously awaiting the arrival of Mrs. Kinsella, who. is an accomplished piano player. Ote Johnson, captain of the Dutch team, pounds the Ivories some, but Ote likes ragtime, and the song sters want to sing, "Love Me and the World Is Mine," or something just as foolish. ... The Salinas fans are preparing to give the team a great reception when it arrives there. A band will meet the players at the depot, and a dance has been arranged. Salinas' fair daughters will get a treat when they see Cooney and Danzig. .... 1 The new road uniforms have arrived. They are blue with a white strip down the leg of the pantaloons. Caps are white, with a blue rib. ... Some of the Eastern sprouts on the team are getting a bit homesick. Be tween the anxious worry as to whether they will make the team and a long ing to see their best girls, they are passing through fire these days. ... The Seals will put the finishing touches of their training at Bakersfield. After closing the series with the White Sox, No. 1, Captain Mohier will leave for his training camp. Of course, the fans have noticed that the White Sox team that Portland took down the line for two games are. trim ming Hen Berry's hopefuls. This ought to give them a pretty good line on the kind of a team that Manager Mac will have this season. ... Gamble, the twirler who played here on Sunday, will pitch for Tacoma this season. He has lots of steam, and will be ripe and ready by the time the Northwest League opens, if it ever does. FIGHT TOO KOICH TO DECIDE Bets Declared Off on Ross-Mullin Bout at Aberdeen. ABERDEEN, Wash., March 18. (Spe cial.) Referee Victor McLaglen last night declared the Mullin-Ross boxing match to be no contest and called off all bets. The climax came In the 19th round when Ross hurled Mullin to the floor and in capacitated him. In the opinion of ex perts at the ringside Mullin was entitled to the decision on a foul but McLaglen declared that he would give no decision as extremely rough fighting characterized the bout. Fighting under straight rules, Ross de voted his entire attention to work in the clinches and throughout there was much wrestling. Mullin proved: himself to be very clever and in open fighting Ross was wholly unable to score. In the fourth round Mullin scored a clean knockdown with a right to the neck. The blow again broke Mullin's injured hand and there after he made a one-handed battle. The bout, because of the rough work, disappointed about 700 spectators. It is probable the authorities will hereafter permit fights only under clean-break rules. OREGON CITV HAS THE FEVER Much Interest In Baseball Team. Prize for Best Name. OREGON CITT, Or., March 18.
