Holden, in his efforts to accumulate a for- tune, Mrs. Flora M. Holden has returned to this city and instituted proceedings for One hundred thousand dollars in money and gold dust Mrs. Holden says is the accumulation of their joint labors in the land of the midnight sun, and as she demands one-half of this sum in ad- dition to $00 a month alimony, an inter- esting_contest will doubtless result. At Mrs. Holden's request injunctions were issued restraining the Bank of California and the Hibernia Savings and Loan So- ciety, where the money and gold dust are deposited, from paying out the same dur- ing the pendency of the litigation. Mrs. Holden alleges cruelty as cause of action. She avers that in February, 1893, at Dawson City, her husband blackencd her eyes; later he struck her on the nose, pulled her hair and threw his dinner bucket at her. Mrs. Holden also accuscs her husband with undue intimacy with one Rose Blumkin. Suits for divorce were also filed by Etta A. Corneli against Jacob Corneli for de. sertion, Caspar E.
