The Supreme
Court Pechles A
Claim.
;nhiHt Her
San Franoisco, July 17. The supreme
court of California to-day rendered a
decision on the appeal from . the judg
ment of Judgd Sullivan of the superior
court refusing a new trial in the cele
braled Sharon divorce oaso. Judge- Sul-Hv.-ia
liwUi that the marriago contract
between the lute ex-Senator William
Sharon and Sarah Althea Terry was
Valid and that the parties were legally
husband and wife. The supreme court
finds that they kept their marriage (if
there was one) and their relation as hus
band aud wife seoret, and that for this
reason the marriage was never consum
mated. The case is remanded for new
trial.
"I think the decision which was hand
ed down to-day practically ends the
case," said Attorney Herrin who has
now charge of the Sharon case. "The
supreme court now says thore cau be no
purely seoret marriage. Seoreoy has
been the foundation of Sarah Althea's
case so far. The ouly way iu which she
Can further renew the oaae would be by
bringing forward testimony that the
marriage was public. I hardly think
she will do this. We never have paid
a cent of alimouey. Judge Sullivan
granted 82500 a month alimoney, and
the supreme oourt reduced this to $500
a month whioh we never paid. Judge
Sullivan then gave judgement against
us for $00l)0. Meanwhile the circuit
court had rendered a decision, and on
this we based a now appeal to the su
preme oourt of the state of California,
whioh is now pending. Should wo lose
the alimonoy case in thef supreme court
of the United States. Iu my opinion, to
day's work puts a quietus on the whole
business."
ENDED AT LAST.
Mrs. Terry linn uo KecourHO
in Hor Hour of
jjeicuii
San Fbancisco, July 17. The decis
ion of the supreme court iu the Sharon
case, reversing the judgment of the low
er court, virtually ends one of the most
oelebrated oases in the aunals of Cal
ifornia jurisprudence. Although a new
trial is ordered by the highest tribunal,
it would seem that the cause must ' ter
minate with this decision, siuco the
principal actor to the suit, Seuator Sha
ron js dead, aud that it is impossible to
make the trustees of his .estate defend
ants to ft suit for divorce against a do
oeased person. Plaiutill' herself has
been married since Judge Sullivan ren
dered his deoision; the marriage con
tract has been burned, nud even if it
were iu existenoo, a question miglit have
ariseij if it would be allowed to be in
troduced iu evidence aftor the federal
oourt has declared it a forgory aud or
dered to he cancelled, aud after the
United States supreme oourt has affirm
ed that decision, it iB believed that un
der these circumstances the duo anient
whioh the plaintiff declared she valued
higher than her life, would not have auy
standing in court.
But besides the marriage ooutract,
her principal witnesses have deserted
her. Mary Brackett, who testified that
she was secreted behind a bureau while
plaintiff and the late senator were nestl
ed in each othor's arms, aud whon the
latter told his alleged wife that she was
his legal and only spouse, subsequently
denied, the truth of her testimony, and
swore that she had perjured herself at
her former examination. Martha Wil
son, the oolored woman, who claimed
that the marriage contract had been con
cealed, behind a mirror in hor house
shortly after it is claimed that it was ex
ecuted, also uckuowledgod that she had
perjured herself, and that she had never
seen the alleged document.
STILL ON TUB FIKLl).
Judge Terry, wheD asked if this de
oision ended the litigation, replied that
a new trial was .to be had, aud although
the famous marriage contract was de
stroyed by the conflagration, they had
photographic copies of it ami can prove
its existenoe by oral testimony.
One of Terry's oouncil added that the
fight had, in fact began anew, and it iu as
if it was just commencing.
THE C'OLI SII1IA Id VEU.
lieportH of Hie OmwrHin Clmri;e of the Jm
provciiieiitx. Washinoton, July 17. The report of
Major Thos. Haubury, engineer iu charge
of the improvements at the mouth of the
Columbia river, and tho report ot Lieu
tenant Edward Burr on tho canal at the
Cascades, have been reoeived at the war
department. The existing project at tho
mouth of the river was curried on suc
cessfully during the year. Congress ap
propriated iu IhHH, half a million dollars.
There was expended during tho year,
$307,000. Major Handbury thinks that
$700,000 can be profitably expended dur
ing the next fiscal year.
The government's plant has been
largely increased during tho past year.
The tramway for dumping rock wan
extended 41!0 feet during that period,
and 03, ICS tons of rock wore received aud
dumped into the jetty.
The engineer reports that the effect of
the Dew work can already be seeu iu the
filling in of the fiats south of the jetty,
and the straightening of the channel
over the bar.
AT TUB rARCADES.
Concerning the work of the canal
around the Cascades of tbe Columbia,
LieuO'iibnt P'.irr reports good, prngrcun
has been made in excavation and blast
ing. C'liigress, in August, 1S8S, appro
printed 3300,000 for this work, and
8200,555 was expended during the year
87OO,0OU can be profitably expended Dext
year. About 112,000 cubic yards of rock
was blasted and taken out during the
year. Some progress was made with
the wnlls of tho canal. Work was con
tiuued all the year round, not a day be
ing lost 011 account of the weather.
Jlnjor Hamlbnry reports good pro
gress during the year in improving the
C'helialis river in Washington Territory.
The sum of $2000 was appropriated for
this purpose by the River and Harbor
bill, of which 700 was expended last
year. Major Handoury wants $3000 for
next year. The principal work is snag
ging, and iho river has been practically
olefired for navigation from Elma to
Montosano.
flagging work has also been done in
the Skagit, Stilaquamish, Nootsack,
Snohomish and Suoquahnie rivers in
Washington Territory Congress ap
propriated $15,000 for this work in the
river and harbor bill, of which about
$11,000 was expended. Major Handbury
asks for $15,000 for the next year, and
says that that amount should be appro
priated every year' to keep tho snag
boat in successful operatiou.
Of tho $1500 nppropriated'by Congress
Inst year for ganging the waters of the
Columbia river, $415 were expended.

A Democratic Deal in Favor of Ex-Seorotury
Whitney.
New York, July 17. A report is our
rent in demoorntioielitical circles that
a deal baa bee" made whioh shelves ex-
President Cleveland permanently, and
places ex-Secretary of the Navy William
C. Whitney in the lead us the democrat
ic presidential candidate for 1802. Last
week then, was an influx of demoratio
leaders from Ohio to see Colonel Brice,
chuirman of the national committoo.
. A prominent Cleveland democrat said
yesttrdoy that he had every reason to
believe that tho machine democats
had decided Cleveland's fate. Senator
Gornii' j, of Maryland, was at first op
posed to the election of Colonel Brice as
chairman of tho national oummittee. He
felt that the colonel represented tbe free
trade ideas of Cleveland, and he did not
wish to have another campaign on the
same issue as that of 18-48. His opposi
tion to Brice was assuming a definite
shape, when the leaders met and mapped
out a oourso that placated the Maryland
senator and made him an enthusiastic
supporter of Brice.
The dual was that Whitney should
have the support of the committee for
the presidency in 1H1I2, and that Colonel
ISrico should be elected chairman and
then should make a strong fight for the
senator from Ohio. If he failed to sue
ceed Senator Payne, then he waH to be
supported by tbe committee for tbe vice
presidency. The Batiilall-Gormaii wing
has won the prominent Cleveland demo
crats by promising to see that they
are well taken care of if tho democratic
ticket wins iu 1802.
Ex-President Cleveland still thinks
his most influential friends are for him.
FOR A SECOND TERM,
Secretary Hunk Hays Harrison Will
lie
Cuutliihtte fur Re-election.
Niiw York, July 17. Tho Times,
Washington special quotes .Secretary
Husk on tho presidential outlook for
1802 as follows : "HurriHon will be the
candidate, anil a right popular mid sue-
Cessna one no will oe, too.
"You have no doubt that Harrison will
be a candidate ?"
"Noue whatever."
"And think he will wiu?"
Of oourse he will win. Ho is making
a most popular president, especially with
tho common people, Of course there
are some politicians who think he is not
making removals as fast as would wish,
but President Harrison is a level, clear
headed man, who known what ho is
ab',ut, and will prove himself one of the
bent, as well as one of the most popular
presidents. But there is no use of going
any furthur- you will be printing an in
terview, and don't you go and do it."
THE JOHNSTOWN SUFFERERS
Distribution of Money By the State Continn
ed Complaints of Former Carelessness.
Johnstown, Pa., July 18. The dis
tribution of the $500,000, which the
state commission said should be made
to the flood sufferers, began to-day.
Judge Cumming began with the sixth
ward, and expeots, to be able to pay out
the claimants eaoh day until he gets
through. He will take the district by
wards to enable him to handle the mat
ters systematically. The treasurer of
the oommiesiou will be with him ready to
cash the drafts as they are issued, if re
quired, but he will advise the sufferers
to deposit their money in the bank and
do business systematically with bank
accounts.
The disposition of the funds al
ready disposed of is still the suhjeot of
comment, and Yesterday a gentleman
presented to the Johnstown finance
committee a telegram from James Gor
don Bennett demanding an accounting
for the New York Herald fund, amount
ing to about $25,000. The Johnstown
committee claim that the demand ia un
warrantable. It is hardly to be expect
ed that actual misappropriations will
be shown, but the belief is general that
there has been extensive oarelessness.
THE CASCADE LOCKS.
Major Handbury'8 Recommendations on
the
Manner of Their Construction.
Washington, July 18. Major Hand-
bury, in his report on the construction
of the looks at the oascades, says: "It
is pretty evident that the stone for the
larger piers of the work will have to be
obtained from a distance, and the out
look in that particultar is not encour
aging. On aooonut of the difficulty in
getting building stone it is recommend
ed that the side walls of the locks and
the great mass of masonry required
about the locks aud the guard gates be
made of ooncrete. The bottom of the
locks should be lined with same materi
al." In the opinion of Mojor Handbury,
nothing should interfere with the
speedy completion of the first look and
the early opening of the oourse to some
kind of navigation.
AVith the funds available, it is pro
posed to first procure additions to the
present plant that are necessary to the
eaongmioal and speedy proseoutiou of
the work, and then to prooeed to exca
vate for the foundation for masonry of
the lower guard and lock gate, to put
iu the lower course of the lower dry
stone wing walls, so far as the prepared
stone on hand will permit, to proceed
with the ooncrete work on the caisson
recess andethe upper guard gate, pre
pare atone for the masoBry of the lower
gates and to,exoavate in the look pit.

She Gives an Explanation of the Difficulties
between Herself and Husoand.
San Fkancisoo, July 18; Mrs. Clinton
P. Ferry, of Taooma, who was the oen-
tral figure in the recent Paris episode, '
has arrived here from Europe.
Mrs. Ferry gives the following as her
explanation of the differences that have
arisen between her and Mr. Ferry: "I
believe in my soul that he has been out of
his mind for some time. He is a very
rich man, but he has a mania about mon
ey. His health was not good, and he
feared that he would not live long. I
am more than twenty years younger than
Mr. Ferry, and his ohief fear was lest he
should die and I be left a rioh widow,
free to marry another husband.- For a
long time, although our relatious were
outwardly of a pleasant nature, his be
havior to me in private was terrible. He
swore for spending money neoessay
for our expenses, and he called ma
names of inconceivable vileness before
our servant. He threatened my life
oonstantly and made me so miserable
that now when I look back I wonder
how I managed to live through it and
appear happy.
Ho drew up papers some time ago for
me to sign, relinquishiug all claims to
my share of the oommunity property, in
oonsidertion of a small income. He
knew that I wanted to get a divorce and
he tried to make me sign the paper, say
ing I had done things that should en
title him to a divorce. He offered me
my boy, Clinton, if I would sign the
papers and take the allowanoe. He
protended to be proud of his boy, and
professed to love him but he was wil
ling to give him up if only he oould
make me release my own and my ohild's
claim to our share of the estate. Of
oourse I oould not do that, aud he treat
ed me spitefully and brutally." "

A Mighty WnveSweeps Down an Ohio Val
ley. Lancaster, Pa., July 20. One of the
most disasterous storms ever known in
the Hocking valley culminated yester
day in the breaking of Sharp's dam at
Sugar Grove on the Hocking canal. The
dam held in store a large body ot water
whioh supplies the lower levies of the
canal. Heavy rains had filled the reser
voir to its banks, when suddenly the
dam gave away , and tho water went out
through the vulley, taking with it every
movable object. For twenty miles the
soil is plowed up. Trees, feuoes, crops,
and hundreds of head of live stock were
swept away. No lives were lost, because
the houses are situated on a high bluff
that overlooks the valley. But the ca
nal for miles is a wreck, and thousands
of feet of railroad track are washed away.
