Brown is entitled to an Iment of her marriage to George Brown, which was celebrated at R.I(lmorr Md., August 22, 1922. Mrs. Brown lived v\“h her husband about r before she learned that he had been the “guilty party” in a divorce proceeding in the District of Colum- bia. She then asked that the mar- riage be annuled. The wife declared she knew nothing of the divorce pro- ceedings and thought Brown a widower, The court held that the language of the local statute which forbids the guilty party to remarry means just what it says and makes illegal a sec- ond marriage contracted by him. At- torneys James P. Farmer and M. F. choff appeared for the wife, while Newton Donaldson was ppointed by the court to defend the husband. Natnml }!entnhon From the Argonant.

CHRISTIANIA, October 17.—The Norsehandels Bank yesterday stopped all payment, owing to a heavy run on its deposits caused by malicious rumors started by the Communist press.
