"NO MORE QUARRELLING,” SAYS HUSBAND.

That the woman attempted suicide when brooding over her: husband's Inability to ronder financial assistance to her father, and not because of ill-treatment, was the suggestion made by Mr. F. X.

SERIOUS REVOLT IN SIBERIA.

VILLAGERS JOINING THE MUTINOUS MINERS.

Growing More Serious.

Harbin, May 26. The revolt of peasants, farmers, villagers, fishermen and coal miners in the Siberian Maritime province is continuing to grow more serious according to authenticated reports from Vladivostok received in Harbin, May 25.

Mr. D'Almada: Are you good-tempered woman?

She answered that she supposed she was, if she had been able to endurn so long the cruelty and in attention of her husband. She ad mitted, in reply to other questions, that she did approach her husband for $20,000 as a measure of as sistance for her own father, who had become bankrupt in business. "But when he said he was unable to do anything, I did not pursue the matter further. It ended there."

She knew that the family estate was not yet settled after the death of her father-in-law. She denied having attempted suicide because of her husband's failure to accede to her request. As a matter of fact, he was rarely at home, and he never took her cut to dinners,

Often Quarrelling.

They were often quarrelling, but there were no attempts to make up. "How could that be since he would immediately walk out of the house?" she asked.

It was not true to say that after cutting her throat, her husband made it a point of seeing her at the Hospital every day. He visited- her only twice in the course of her stay there.

After her discharge from Hospital. she went to the Secre- tariat for Chinese Affairs, and an official to whom she took her troubles, advised her to return to her mother for the time being Except for saying that she was to go back to her mother first, he did not say anything else about her returning to her husband.

While with her mother at Kau Kong, she did not receive any com. munication from her husband or see anyone from his family. As she did not hear from him, she, on her part, refrained from sending him any letter.

Offer to Return.

On her return to Hongkong last month, she again interviewed the S.C.A., reporting to the official whom she saw there that she had unsuccessfully applied for main- tenance money.

Mr. D'Almada, speaking for his client, made an offer to her that she return to her husband. "There is to be no more quarrelling," he assured her, "and you will be treat ed as a kit fat wife, with all the respect due to your status from everybody in the house."

Witness expressed her reluctance, doubting all would be #15 Mr. D'Almada says. "I have endured his treatment too long not to know what to expect. He has taken an- other wife and has left me in ignorance of it. This and other things make me afraid. I really do not know what sort of a man he is now."

After evidence was given by a former amah employed at the house, the case was adjourned until to morrow afternoon.

Mr. M. K. Lo is appearing for the complainant:

Groans heard in the South- Western Dining Rooms, of a com- mercial hotel, led to the dis- covery of Mrs. Ida Hogg of Fourth-road, Cosham, Portsmouth, and Cecil Ambrose Cook, also of Fourth-road, Cosham. Both were unconscious and the room was full of gas. The woman and man were rushed to the infirmary and recovered later.,
