Andrew of Portland, formerly as at

whom Andrew secured a divorce in
Portland last March. Andrew returned
to La Forte from Portland a short time
ago, and the suit was brought at once
He left town before the complaint was
served upon him..
Sensational allegations were made by
both parties In the suit for divorce. An
drew charged that his wife had followed
him Into a saloon, had crawled over the
trans on. into his office, and had perse
cuted him continuously for the purpose
of securing his money. He said she had
told him she would let him alone If he
would give her all his money.
Mrs. Andrew, in the suit for an ac
counting, alleges that all the money
Andrew has was given him by her to
use In his business, and that he is
seeking to withhold It from hen She
says that she received the money from
her grandfather's estate.
An effort was made when the divorce
suit was -tried -to have the property
rights of the two determined by the
court, hut no decree affecting the prop
erty was entered. Mrs. Andrew came
to La Port from Portland Immediately
after her husband was given the divorce
and has since- been preparing for' the
suit which was brought today.

Boise, Ida.. July f. Harry Orchard's
bombs with which he saya he tried to
kill Judge Ooddard of the Colorado su
preme court and Governor Peabody. are
to be used to demonstrate that he falsi
fied his testimony. ,
The Haywood defenaa has just conv
pleted some experiments which they
claim will convince . the Jury that
Orchard told too v much ,' when h de
scribed how his Infernal machines were
made. An exact duplicate in blse and
material of the Ooddard bomb-a small
wooden box about, tha 'sua of a starch
box haa beea made and .special Illustra
tions are to be presented to Drove that
Orchard nor anyone else could have put
40 aticka of seven-eighths inch dynamite
in a receptacle, the. size of the box. in
evidence. He said 40 sticks of dyna
mite had beea placed la the box. It now
develop that- Ki is - impossible to put
that quantity of giant powder-in a box
the else brought-hera by- the Pinkerton
and identified by Judge Goddard as the
om dug up at his gate.
When the defense puts in its refuta
tion of the story that Orchard tried to
aynamite Fred Mradiev, experts oa ex
plosives are to be called to prove that
10 pounds of dynamite enclosed In
lead ptpe would have wrecked the flat
ana xiuea an the people in the building.
The state's rebuttal witnesses are ar
riving by the score. Men who Were' In
