Mrs. Pearl Garratt. Suing for Divorce,
Says Bliss Lasted Only
Two Days.
'Two days after our marriage he
choked me without any cause except
jealousy, and I became deathly sick and
carried bruises for several days." said
Mrs. Pearl Garratt. 17 years old. In
petitioning; the District Supreme Court
yesterday for a limited divorce with
alimony from her husband. Cecil Gar
ratt. who. she &ays. Is employed In the
District surveyor's office at a salary of
S87.50 a month.
"Each and every day durlntr a month
wo lived in my parents" home at 25 Ninth
street northeast he abused me and called
mo names," alleges the elrl wife, "and
tin last New Tear's Day he drew a
razor and threatened to kill me, so that
since I have been mortally afraid to
leave the house or so in the streets
alone."
Mrs. Garratt is represented by Attorney
D. Edward Clarke.
Investigation of. the awarding by the
superintendent of police of contracts for
policemen's uniforms on a. noncompetitive
basis will be reopened this morning- as
the result of the discovery yesterday of
new and Important evidence by the Dis
trict Commissioners.
The District heads hive requested
Keehhelmer & Son, the Cincinnati firm
which has had a monopoly of the uniform
trade since 1900, to send a representative
to Washington to appear before the In
vestigating committee.
Rid BcIott Outside Firm.
Julius I. Peyser, attorney for the Harry
Kaufman Company, of this city, yester
day Informed the Commissioners that In
1S0S his client had bid far below the Cin
cinnati firm for the furnishing of Identi
cally the same uniforms and jet . had
not been awarded the contract. Subse
quently a letter was written MaJ. Syl
vester. In which Mr. Peyser said. In part:
"My client submitted a proposal which
was lower than any proposal received,
to-wlt a difference from 25 cents up to
I3.S on each and every article. Notwith
standing tho fact that my client Is a
local institution and was the lowest bid
der tho proposal was rejected. My client
maintains that ejery bid submitted was
In keeping with the specifications received
from your department dated January 13,
1906: the said bids of the Harry Kauf
man Company were formal in every man
ner and fully In keeping with the direc
tion. Competitive Prices Quoted.
"It does not seem reasonable that the
members of the Metropolitan police force
should be forced to pay to an out-of-town
concern more than they would pay to a
local nrm. For Instance, the successful
bidder has quoted a price of $15.75 for
the patrol drivers' overcoats. My client
has submitted a bid of 112.S0 for the
identical garment The successful bidder
charged 222.75 for all- overcoats and 216.35
for frock coats, whereas my client has
charged 221.50 and 214.50, respectively.
You can therefore see that it would
mean perhaps a saving of from 23 to 27
on complete uniform."
Mr. Peyser explains, that Mr. Kaufman
Inquired of the superintendent of police
why he had not been awarded the con
tract, and was told that his bid was not
"complete and regular." Mr. Kaufman
maintains that it was.
The Commissioners yesterday would not
discuss the nature of the new evidence
that had been brought to light They
said it probably would be a week or so
before the investigation would end.
The investigating committee, composed
of Capt Roger G. Powell. Assistant En
gineer Commissioner; Daniel J. Donovan,
deputy auditor, and Roger G. Whiteford.
assistant corporation counsel, yesterday
withdrew Its report, which had been sub
mitted to the Commissioners. The report
covered sixteen .typewritten pages . and
was accompanied by 130 pages of tran
scripted testimony.

Fractorm Rib In Slromcle In Her
Little Tranlc Plar.
Mmr. Kalicli was too III to appear In
the bill at Keith's last night, having
sustained a fractured rib during- the
struggle in her tabloid emotional
drama, "The Victim." She will be suf
ficiently recovered today to appear at
alt performances the remainder of the
week, the management's physician and
Resident Manager Robblns announces.
Disappointed theatergoers last night
will be permitted to see her without
further cost at any subsequent per
formance .simply by presenting at the
door of the theater the scat coupon
for last night. These will be accepted
as general admission tickets good at
the hour either matinees or.nlght that
Mme. Kalich appears.
Manager Robblns was . advised last
Wednesday that Mme. Kallchthad sus
tained an injury to one of her ribs In
the rather strenuous strusrcle in which
she engages In the denouement of her
tabloid tragedy. The theater's physi
cian at once called upon ttie actress at
the hotel (the Wlllard). where she has
apartments and found that she had
really suffered a slight but painful
fracture of a rib on the right side. The
necessary medical measures were
taken and Mme. Kalich bravely at
tempted to fill her engagement with
out loss of any performances. But at
each subsequent performance. In .the
forgetfulness of her own condition In
duced by her efforts to give complete
realism to her role. Mme. Kalich added
further, strain to her condition, the-re
sult beng that last, evening the, physi
cian decided that she must have com
plete rest until today.
Polk Sara He Will Clans irlth
Waahtnarton and Lincoln.
Wilson will rank with Washington
and Lincoln among the great Presi
dents of the land, according to Joseph
W. Folk, who last night addressed
the Omo Class Club of Brlghtwood
Park M. E. Church at the third an
nual banquet of the organization, held
in the church. He explained:
"Washington fought to give us this
nation, guaranteeing rights to the citi
zen never obtained or exercised by
any other people; Lincoln preserved
the nation as a government of the
neonle. for the neonle. and by the
' people: Wilson has applied the ideals
of Washington and Lincoln to the
problems of today and has steered the
ship of state amid story waters into
a peaceful harbor. As Washington
fought against oppression and Lincoln
to make men free, so Wilson Is strik
ing the chains of bondage from- the
average man to the end that each may
have that equal chance In life's battle
that belongs to each." '
