CRESS INFELICITIES OF LONG STANDING . Mrs. Gress at One Time Preferred Charge of Abduction Against Her Step-Son After Scene at Jersey City Station. The New York '"" orId of Monday print! the following etory concerning the «ult for divorce and alimony of Mr». May Nelson Gress against G. V. Ores*, formerly of Atlanta, but now of Somerville, N. J.: The social set of Somerville, N. J.. vas thrown Into excitement yesterday When It was learned that George V. Areis of New York and Atlanta, Gn., capitalist, had been sued for divorce bv his wife. Mr Gress, who Is a lumber merchant, anueared at Somerville a year ago and bought the fine old P. T. Norton es tate which dates bock to the revolu- It was commonly supposed that he was a widower. He paid 130,000 for the country place and since living there has won a reputation' for gener osity once taking nil his neighbors, to the number of nearly a hundred, to New York to attend a performance at the Hippodrome. Gress has stocked the big farm, which Is near the James B. Duke place, with blooded stock. He also owns two automobiles. Somerville society has tried particularly to inveigle the new comer Into attending social functions, but he has shown considerable ret icence. Matrons with marriageable daughters understood yesterday some thing of his dlBlIke for social life. Of an old Southern family, himself, his first wife, who died nbout 23 years ago was a Southerner. For nls second wife he married a school teacher of Indianapolis, Ind., Miss May Nelson. In Mac ISS2. She Is a nntlve of Now York. His private secretory, who Is managing the fnrm In his absence In the South, said yesterday that Mu Gress had often snid that he married hit first wife for love, and his second wife for beauty. By his first wife he had two sons, who arc prominent Southern business men todav. Morgan Grcaa Is a lumber merchant, managing his father's Jack sonville, Fla., branch, and Hart Gress manages the firm's Hartsease, Ga„ mills. Both are well known In New York and live with their father when here at the Hotel York. Taites Were Not Similar. The second wife bore one daughter, May, who died two years ago In At lanta. Mr. Gress* lumber business at Heartsease, Ga., flourished In a re markable manner. In the little com munity he established a luxurious home for his wife and three children. Mrs. Gress disliked country life and spent much time In Atlanta, living at the Hotel Majestic. She worshipped her little girl, May, and as long ago as Jutv, 1897, thla child was a source of trouble In the family. In that month Mrs. Gress, tiring of Atlanta life nnd the humdrum of the Georgia forests, at Heartsease, came North to visit the family of Dr. Van Buren Young, at Garrlaon’x-on-the- Hudson. Dr. Young had a city house at No. 108 West 8ev*nty-flfth street. When Mr. Gress learned that his wife and daughter were at Garrlaon’s, he came North with his son, Morgan, and requested hlSr.wlfc to return home with her daughter at once. She re fused, whereupon a scene followed In the Pennsylvania railroad station In Jersey City. Young Morgan Gress appeared there at midnight with bis step-sister, Alay, and took a compartment In the South ern express, A few minutes later Mrs. °r c ' ,B nnd several friends rushed in with a detective and took them off the train. A charge of abduction was pre* ferred against the young man in the police court the next morning. Hls father defended him, saying that he had given the little girl Into hls son's keeping to take her home. • The court discharged Morgan Gress, whereupon Mr. and Mrs. Gress patch ed their differences and all went home. Two years ago Miss May Gress, who was then 18 years old, was to make her debut In Atlanta society. Her dresses had all been made, she was declared the prettiest girl coming out that winter In the South, and her am bitious mother was happy. The day before her coming out party the girl went to her dentists, blood poisoning set In from a defective tooth, and she died suddenly the very hour her debut was to take place. It wob a sad blow to both parents, but It did not reconcile their differ ences. Mrs. Gress continued to live i great deal of the time In Atlanta and New York, an a Mr. Gress spent Ills time at hls lumber mills at Hartsease and In the lumber district In Man hattan. Wife's 8ult for Divorce. On August 24 last Mrs. Gress filed a suit In the superior court of Fulton county, Georgia, for a divorce. If It be necessary she says she Is prepared to name corespondents. She prays that she be granted 130,000 permanent ali mony and |200 per month temporary alimony. While the suit was filed some weeks jo, It was not given out till last week. Tl\e wife alleges that her husband is worth 3200,000. She says In her com plaint that because of her husband’s acts of Infidelity she has lived away from him since January, 1903. She also charges that oh August 1 last Mr. Gress, anticipating a suit for divorce, deposited In the Fourth Na tional Bank of Georgia *30,000, which sum was to be paid to her under cer tain conditions, these being that she should obtain a divorce within the year, and that Samuel D. Hewlett, attorney, should certify to Mr. Gress that all her debts had been paid. She alleges that these conditions are unreasonable as she cannot foretoll whether a divorce will be granted her or whether Mr. Hewlett, not being her attorney now, will certify as to her debts. Judge Pendleton, of the superior court, of Fulton county, Georgia, grant, ed an order restraining the bank from paying the *30,000 to Mr. Greas until hearing la had. The young woman who has acted a* Mr. Gress' private secretary for two year*, said at the country place In Somerville yesterday that Mr. Gress had been In the South for a week. She admitted that he had deposited the money in the Atlanta bank and that he was willing hls wife should get a di vorce as the simplest way out of their difficulties. Mr. Gress Is well known os tho man who foutlded the Atlanta MOO. A traveling circus went to'pieces there and Mr. Gress bought the whole menagerie and presented It to the city. He served one term In the Georgia sen ate. DR HAS passed away Was One of Atlanta’s Best Known Physi cians. TWO AMERICAN GIRLS POPULAR IN LONDON THE THEATERS The Bijou Opens. The fifth season of the Bijou opened Monday afternoon with a Labor day matinee nnd was marked by an au dience which filled every seat. At ths Monday night performance standing room was sold to many late comers, and every nook from pit to gallery was filled with a noisy, cheering crowd. Mr. Wells made a wise selection when he chose Haverly's Minstrels for the opening bill. Nothing pleases ao many different kinds of people as a minstrel show. There Is usually good singing for music lovers, plain Jokes for the fun seeker, bright lights and dancing for everybody. Haverly’s has them all In plentiful proportion. That li pleased the crowd was evident In the applause which swept the house at every song, the recalls which forced the favorites back to the curtain If only for a parting bow. The opening scene, In which a great Watermelon opens and exposes Its crimson core filled with minstrels In evening dress and black stockings, I* a happy thought. The fun begins at the beginning nnd keeps on. The bill fol lows the lines of the old-time minstrel more than moat of the companies. Two acrobats, two musical comedians and a pair of athletes, all excellent of their appear In. the olio, but the rest are all plain black-faced negroea r wlth food songs and the favorite Jokes which all of you know and like. Billy Beard made the greateat Indi vidual hit of the evening with hla song, ' I'd rather Be on the Outside A-Look- Irg In Than on the Inside A-Lookin Out," and later tn hla monologue before the curtain. The staging and costuming of the production Is not gorgeous, but pleas es. and the chorus singing la excel- ■'ht. If the manager would prune a few of the broader Jokes, which are hardly in keeping with the Bijou stand- *rd, he would Improve that portion of the program. The engagement la for the week, with matinees Tuesday, Thursday and Sat- ahow. "Cute" la used to describe him by those who have that word In their vocabularies. Johnson and Hardy, who sing comic songs rather comically, got their share of the applause. In fact, they received an encore—something no one else got. Mia* Roattlno, of the Roattlno and Stevens team, Is a very clever dancer. Miss Stevens supports her jvlth songs to suit the dances, i The Ilanks-Breieale duo consists of two women who play music, which un doubtedly demonstrates no mean nbll- Ity, but doesn’t catch with the crowd. One Is an expert with the cornet, the other with the violin. Mildred Flora, comedienne nnd alack wire performer, lacked mostly ap plause to make her act good. The cold ness of the audience, however, made moat of her Jokes seem flatter than they were. | The cameragraph, which, by the way, was the second feature on the bill, In stead of the last, as usual, did Us part to "amuse, Instruct and entertain." Tim Murphy Coming. Tim Murphy's revival of hls former success In "Old Innocence" Is of In terest to all lovers of the gentle and refined in comedy, for this comedy, viewed with tenderness and truth, Is an Ideal atory wherein no moral Is lost. It la one of the most beautiful ■torles Imaginable and was unques tionably one of Mr. Murphy’s great eat successes. The revival of a former success by this versatile artist seemingly means the presentation again of a comedy that has met with the unbounded approval of all theatergoers. Tim .Murphy's engagement will be for Friday nnd Snturday nights with matinee Saturday afternoon. Dr. Clement Clay Greene, one of the best known physicians In Atlanta, died at the Frederick Apartments on White hall street at 5:30 Monday afternoon from a complication of diseases.

Detroit, Sept. 4.—In hls speech last night In the Light Guard Armory, Wil liam Jennings’ Bryan condemned tho railroads as a corrupt Influence tn pol itics and advocated hls previously Of fered theory of first trying as an ex periment a system of dual government control, the state owning the state lines and the federal government own ing the Interstate lines, giving a chance for the avoidance of centraliza tion and building up the power of the state.” Regarding the Republican party and Roosevelt, Mr. Byran said: "Ten years ago the Republican par ty came Into power and haa held ab solute control ever since. What strikea me as the most astonishing ex ample of Republican decadence la that while at the outset of that ten years Republicans seemed to believe that any number of men from their ranks might be nominated for the presidency, now they admit that there Is only one man who. If nominated, would stand any chance of election, and that man is our president." At the fair grounds yesterday Mr. Bryan made a Labor Day speech in which he said: "I return to my home more than ever believing In the dignity of labor and the Importance of arystalllzlng a senti ment among the people which makes them respect more the man who tolls- than tho one who Idles In society. I trust we shall never have In this coun try a leisure class. If by that we. mean wo see nothing to do. I cannot con ceive any place In a well regulated society for men or women who have nothing to do.’’ He left for Chicago last night. DEMANDS ARREST OF GOVERNOR HOCH 1*7 Private Leased Wire.

About the time I speak of when the child was three months old the mother began feeding him Grape-Nuts. In ten days It was plain that a change was taking place, and In a few weeks the boy became rosy, healthy and rounded out.
