DIVORCE CASE
IS AIRED HERb
Prominent People of Washington. D.
C. Involved; Deposition) Taken
Here Yesterday* 1 -
"A divorce case which involves sev
eral prominent people of Washington,
D. C., among them Lieut.-Com. John
W. Cummings, of the U. S. Navy, was
given a hearing in Williamston yes
terday.
Lieut.-Com. Cummings is suing his
wife for divorce, alleging in his com
plaint that she had illicit relations
with Geo. W. Summers in Norfolk on
the night of June 9th of this year.
Sommers, who*fca« at that time a
salesman for the Heinz Pickle Co., is
named co-respondent, but before the
hearing was completed Attorney Ba
ker, for the plaintiff, hinted that
there were others who would be
named.
The question which was to be
brought up at the hearing was the
whereabouts of Sommers on this par
ticular night in June. Sworn state
ments of Mr. J. H. Britt, proprietor
of the Britt Hotel, and Charles
knight, manager of the local Penders
Store, would indicate that Sommers
was in Williamston.
These gentlemen appeared before
Hugh G. Horton, commissioner, to
make the depositions, and testified
that Sommers was here, Mr. Britt
seeing him register, in which state
ment the hotel register bears him
out. Mr. Knight remembered giving
him an order for goods on or around
that date.
Stubbs and Stubbs appeared with
Attorney Baker, of Washington, for
the plaintiff, and Lamb & Co barn and
Dunning and Moore for the defense.
Mr. Sommers, it is reported, is in
Florida and beyond denying that he
was in Norfolk on the night men
tioned or had any relations with Mrs.
Cummings, has not been nor is in
terested in the case.
Striking Employees
Return to Work
The strike by the Atlantic Coast
Line Railway telegraphers called for
4 o'clock Monday did not materialize
as expected.
Many agents and operators did not
go out at all, and a large majority of
thote who did go out, it is understood,
returned to work this morning.
The Williamston office was not
closed at all.
The differences between the rail
road and ita employeea seems to be
of a minor nature, and is in the handa
of the isilroad labor board for ad
justment. Perhaps the employeea
acted hastily in calling the strike un
til the inveatigation of the differences
by a disinterested board could hear
all matters.
Labor unions have possibly done
more to keep things stabilized in the
business world than any other one
agency, yet discretion is a very neces
sary thing in such organizations.
