Handsome Atlanta Girl, Who Was
Charged With Working the Badger
Game In New York, Freed from Hus-
vband Serving Term at Sing Sipg.
Sioux Falls, S. D., May 1U.—Mrs.
Fayne Moore, of Now York city, was
today granted an absolute divorce by
Judge Julian Bennett at Watertown,
S. D., and given the right to resume
her maiden name, Fayne Strahan. The
divorce was granted on the grounds of
extreme cruelty, non-support and con-
vicUon of felony.
The defendant. William A. Moore,
filed a sensational answer, alleging
that his Imprisonment was the result
of a conspiracy on the part of tho
plaintiff and her friends to divorce him
In order that she might marry a
wealthy English noUlemnn and deny
ing that he had been guilty of any of
tho charges alleged against him by the
plaintiff.
Testimony was Introduced at the
trial to tho effect that on several oc
casions the defendant atti mpted tho
life of the plaintiff.
While her divorce was ponding the
plalntlfT has resided In Sioux Falls.
She refuses to discuss her future
plans or Intentions.
Fayne Moore’s husband, William E-
Moore, Is serving a 19-year sentence In
Sing Sing for attempting to badger the
late Martin Mahon, proprietor or the
Now Amsterdam hotol, out of $5,000 In
tho Moores' apartments In the Hotel
Grenoble lu 1898. Mrs. Moore, was ac
cused of complicity In the badger
game. When she was put on trial
Mahon left tho state and refused to
appear against her. She then wont
free.
During the first two months that
Moore spent In Sing Sing his wife ap
peared greatly devoted to him. Then
she went to London and appeared In
the chorus of "The Messenger Boy."
When 6he filed her suit for divorce It
was said that if It was successful she

Is a daughter of Judge Strahan, of
Portland, Ore., and before her mar
riage to Moore was knon ns “Pet”

ed here from BonnervUle. Ark., that
passenger train No. 208 on the S'.
lymis anil San Francisco railroad,
which left Memphis at 8:25 o’clock
last night, was held up between Jones
boro and Bonnervllle, Ark., at 2 o'clock
this morning.
There were four men In the attack
ing party. After stopping the train
they dotaohed the engine and expresB
oar and pulled to a blind siding, where
they blew open the safe with dyna
mite. Tho explosion wrecked the c-ai
and tho men escaped In the darkness.

eral superintendent of the Hock Is
land In Texas, confirms the statement
that the Rock Island would build to
the gulf coast. This is the first official

tention to extend Its lino In this state.
Cunard Line Not Sold.
London, May 10.—The Cunard line
officials say there is absolutely no
foundation for the statement made yes
terday at Baltimore, Md., by William
Pinkney, managing director of the
Neptune line of steamers, that the
Morgan shipping syndicate has bought
the Canard line.
London Finds It Difficult to Get De
tails of Disaster.
London, May In.—Cable communica
tion between London and the island of
Martinique Is cut off. Tim direct West
Indian cable received at 1:30 this af
ternoon. a cable dispatch from St. Lu
cia, saying:
"Sloop Just leaving for St. Vincent,
presumably with tho objeet of nseer-
talntng what has happened on that is
land. Possibly took Governor Llewel
lyn."
Communication Is still obtainable
with tho island of Guadalupe, French
West Indies, hut the nows Is congest
ed owing to tho confusion prevailing In
the cable system and tho numerous
official messages fill'd. Tho receipt of
tho first direct cable news from Mar
Unique depends on how long tho
French company will take In repairing
the cable to Fort De France, capital
of tho island, on which they are now
working.
The British admiral Is communicat
ing with the commander-in-chief of the
British naval station and a war vessel
will be directed to go to Martinique
It Is apparent from the cable dispatch
e-s received that the eruption of the
volcano on Mont Poloo will not do
much damage to the summer crop,
which 1b chiefly confined to the south
ern part of the Island and the gath
ering of which Is now two-thirds over.
However, the wiping out of the mon
eyed population of tho Island, centered
at SL Pierre. Is bound to produce the
most serious commercial effect Not
one of the business bouses In I-ondon
has heard a word of Its agents In Mar
tinique, a partner of the principal
English Arm dealing with Martinique
said to a representative of tho Asso
ciated Press:
"I suppose all our agents are dead.
Not much business Is transacted be-
twocn England and Martinique. Al
most everything thence la shipped di
rect to Bordeaux, which suffers tho
tnost. I know Martinique well. Tho
last time I was there, a few years ago,
there were only two Englishmen and
no American residents at SL Pierre,
though that town did a good business
with America In foodstuffs. A large
portion of tho white population belong
to old Frotjch families, who preferred
Bt. Pierre to any other part of the Is
land. We never for n moment dream
ed that Mont Pclec would prove dan
gerous. Fifty years ago some steam
