Witnesses Tell of the Hus- band’s Ardent Attention to One of the Members of Camping Party in the Adirondacks. THEY SAY HE WAS CRUEL. Many Endearing Terms Ex- changed Between Him and His Sister-in-Law in the Presence of the Wife. The public airing of the matrimonial incompatibilities of temperament of the young Duryeas in the trial of Mrs. Nina Larre Smith Duryea's sult for a separa- tien from Chester Burnell Duryea, son of Hiram Duryea, the “Starch King,” was held in abeyance by Supreme Court Justice Blanchard to-day while he dis- posed of a short calendar of fifteen un- defended: divorce cases, this being the weekly ‘bargain day" in divorces, ‘The case was “with the defense, Francis L. Wellman having rested his care for Mrs. Duryea upon her testimony and thet of her mother, Mrs. Laura Smith, wife of Waldo Franklin Smith, of Boston’s Back Bay district and St. Augustine, Fla. The proof did not go even so far as to @ description of the “goings on” in Gen, Hiram Duryea's Adirondack camp {m 1901, which Leila Wotherspoon- Asser, the authoress, and wife of the ‘United States Vice-Consul-General at Cairo, Wgypt, characterized in an affi- dewvit thus: “Buch ingenious and adroit cruelty as I witnessed from Chester B, Duryea toward his wife, before others and for which she gave not the slightest cause.” Camp Scenes Avoided. Mr, Wellman said it had been decided not to go Into those camp scenes be- cause of the prominence of the people connected with them. The story is tolq in affidavits of Mrs, Chester B. Dur; Mrs. Wotherspoon- Asser and others. The women occupled one house, the men another, They in- cluded the Duryeas, Mr. Dilery O. An- derson and his wife, a sister of Duryea; Harry H. Duryea and his wife; Bert Rollins, Mre. Wotherspoon-Asser, Miss Natalle Hutch and Mrs. Don Barber, Mrs. Duryea testified that sho dreaded to go to the camp with this party, and got Gen. Hiram Duryea to promise to be of the party. “But Gen. Duryea (‘Dad’) never came; 1 was just betrayed into a trap,” she gobbed on the witness stand. Says Mrs. Wotherspoon-Asser !n her affidavit, made in Cairo and forwarded under &n order of Justice Gildersleeve: “No two engaged lovers could heve been more devoted to each other than were Chester B, Duryea and Mrs, Don Barber, They both avoided others, seeking only each other's society. They invariably sat where they could be neither seon nor heard, and at night went together over among the islands in @ boat, or else sat in dark corners of the plazea, even when everybody else Was forced to keep in the house becau of the weather.” ‘The same witness asserts in her affi- davit that there was evidently a col- lusion between Chester b. Duryea and his sister-in-law, the wife of Harry H. Duryea, to exasperate the helpless lit- tle wife alone in this crowd, “On Chester B, Duryea’s departure from the camp,” says she, “Mrs, H, H, Duryea sat close to him on the piazza, embracing: him from time to time with both arms, and calling him ‘My dar- lng, Teddy, dear,’ and “Teddy, darling,’ ‘My darling, are you, wure you love me as fondly as ever? to which he re- sponded ‘Yes, dear, I love you as fondly as ever.’ All Us was with impudent lances at Nina. All of the parties mentioned are of the best character and of the Dest social sta- téon. Mrs, Lon Barber, H, H.

United States Marshal’s Posse Fall in Fight to Serve West Virginia Court Order. TWO WOUNDED WILL DIE. Ore Hundred Prisoners Were Taken After Hot Battle In Which Shot- guns Were Used, In Raleigh Coun- ty, W. Va. CHARLBESTON, W. Va. Feb. %.— Bight men were killed in a strike riot at Wright's Coal Works in Raleigh County to-day. Seven of the dead were miners and one a member of a posse led by Deputy United States Marshal D. A. Cunning- ham, who attempted to derve a writ of contempt on the strikers. The riot is the culmination of a series of outbreaks, since the miners and oper- ators In the region named fatled to agree on labor terms. When the work- ers went on strike some time ago, they picketed the mines and surrounding country and neve resisted efforts ¢o import men to take their places. ‘Tie mine owners appealed to the courts and a restraining order known as ‘the Keller blanket injunction was is- suet. This prohibited all coercive methods by the strikers. It was olaamed that the miners paid no heed to the injunction and they were declared in contempt and a writ issued. This was giver to Marshal Cunning- ham, who, expecting trouble, gathered a posse of 16 men and staried ¢or the mines, where 250 strikers were en- camped. The Marshal and bis men were sighted at @ distance by the miners, who, as they approached, opened fire, The shots were returned by the posse, and Marshal Cunningham, gathering his force, stormed the mining camp. ‘They were checked though and forced to fall back. Rallying they made a dash on the strikers who, being well armed, mede a determined stand. They were reck- less in their fighting, though, and proved easy marks for the rifles of the oMcers, A number fell and the miners seeing their ranks thinning, turned and stam- peded to the hills near by. The mar- shal's force followed and made many arrests after hand-to-hand fights, When the victims of the riot were gathered together it was found thet Seven of the miners had been killed and a number wounded. One of the Marshal's men was shot doad and three others suffered slight wounds. One hundred prisoners were locked up in a temporary jail and word sent to the Raleigh County authorities that more fighting might follow, Two of the miners who were wound- ecw ieee EXPLOSION I TORPEDO WORKS Six Girls Burned or Hurt When the Roof of the Structure in Harrison, N.

Young Hertzel, who says he is six- teen, but looks to be over twenty, was employed as a porter in Hartman's Ho- tel, in Whitehall strect. It was through his boasting talk of what would be done as a result of the Paris conven- tion of Anarchists that led to his arrest. Detective Ferretti was sent out after him to-day and found him in Baxter street. He was taken to Police Headquazters, where he was questioned by Inapestor (Brooks. The Inspector announced after the examination that he believed Hert- zel to be a very character. Hidden down in the end of the index finger of his right glove was found a newspaper clipping outlining the meas- ure introduced a few days ago in Con- @ress providing the death penalty for an attempt upon the life of the Presi- dent, Knew McKinley’s Aasassin, Hertsel denied that he was an An- archist, but admitted that he knew the assassin of President MoKinley and that he was a subscriber to the An- archist paper published in Patereon, N. J. A postal note receipt showing that he had subscribed for the paper was found in his pocket. Avcording to Hertzel he came to New York twenty months ago from Lyons, France, and has been working at va- rious places ever since. When asked he disappeared from Hartman's aid ue had got tired of the joo. His Boastings Exposed Him. It is eaid of him at Hartman's that fhe was a rabid Anarchist in his utter- ances and that he let drop remarks leading those who heard him to believe that he was a regular attendant at Anarchist meetings in this city. Occa- sionally he dropped veiled hints of how the map of Europe would be changed in the course of 1903. Recently his talk has been such as to ‘arouse comment among the people at the hotel. A policeman was finally called in by the proprietor, but he refused to arrest Hertzel, The next day the young man disappeared. He told persons a: the hotel that “he Anarchists of New York had bought him a second-class passage to France, and that he was about to wail in a few days.
