HIS OWN PETARD.
DIVORCED WIFE'S RETORT. FUNNY FRENCH LAW. LONDON, December 23. An amusing legal paradox has been the sequel to the millionaire Frank Jay Gould's injunction in Paris restraining his former wife, Edith Kelly, froni dancing at music halls under the name of Gould. Miss Kelly now says that eincc Gould recognises the validity of French law, she proposes suing for half his estate, to which, as a divorced woman, she is entitled under French law. DUNLOP RUBBER COMPANY. DU CROS BROTHERS' WRITS.' LONDON, January 2. Sir Arthur and Messrs. Alfred and George Dv Cros announce that they made no proposal for settlement with Dunlops. They explain they became dissatisfied with the board's attitude towards themselves and others after the circulation of the inspector's report. Accordingly on November 1 they issued writs against the company to afford the company an opportunity to defend the actions; also to lodge any claim it considers it has against them.—(A. and. N.Z. Cable.)
