lare Will
Deny Charges
in Stokes Suit
Co-respondent Now in West
to Testify When Divorce
Trial Is Resumed After
Twenty-Day Adjournment
Wife's Suit to Open Then
Will Recite Allegations of
Cruelty by Husband in
Petition for Separation
Counsel for W. E. D. Stokes, in his j
divorce r-uit against Mrs. Helen El
wood Stokes, will complete their case
before Justice Finch to-day. An ad?
journment then will bo taken for two
or three weeks so that Martin W. Lit?
tleton, counsel for Mrs. Stokes, may
prepare to answer the testimony given
in regard to the defendant's alleged j
relations with Edgar T. Wallace, a Cali- i
fornia 01! magnate.
Mr. Wallace was added to the list of
corespondents mentioned by Mr. Stokes
after the trial began and Justice Finch
gave Mr. Littleton twenty days in which
to meet this development. Mr. Little?
ton said he did not think it would be
necessary to take advantage of all the
time allowed him and that he would
be ready to go ahead before the period ?
had elapsed.
Wallace to Testify in Denial
It was announced yesterday that Mr.
Wallace, now married, will come to
New York from San Francisco to deny
the charges that have linked his name
with that of Mrs. Stokes. Several wit?
nesses have testified that they saw Mrs.
Stokes in his apartment at 13 Fast !
Thirty-fifth Street, in 1914, and another
witness yesterday told of seeing her ?
there in 1017 and 1918. Mr. Wallace,!
it was said, will testify that lie has
not seen Mrs. Stokes since 1910, a year j
before she was married to the plaintiff, j
Upon the resumption of the trial
after to-day, counsel for Mrs. Stokes j
will introduce testimony designed to j
supporl her suit for a separation which |
is based on charges of extreme cruelty. ?
Mrs. Stokes wili be examined and cross- |
i xamined at length, and it is probable j
that Mr. Stokes will take the witness1
stand to answer the charges that will
be made against him.
The witness yesterday who told of
seeing .Mrs. Stokes in the Wallace
apartment in the fall of 1!U7 and the ;
spring of 1918 was Agr?cola Byers, a
negress, who formerly was employed;
in a tea. room in the building where |
Mr. Wallace had his apartment.
"When did you see .Mrs. Stokes in :
the tea room?" Francis L. VVellman,
counsel for Mr. Stokes, asked.
"I did not see her in the tea room
at all," the witness replied.
"Where did you see her and when, if
at air.'"
Incident Around Christmas
"In the bedroom of Mr. Wallace, the,
first time near Christmas, 1917."
"How many more times did you roe
her in Mr. Wallace's bedroom?"
"At len.-t a dozen times in all."
The witness, in answer to furthei
questions, si>' ! she used to take meals
to the Walltet; apartment and that sbe
did this usually between 11 o'clock in
the morning and 2 or 3 o'clock in the
aft ernoon.
"When you took those meals, as you
say, to Mr. Wallace's bedroom, who was
t? i re?"
''Mrs. Stokes was there in the room."!
"Was anybody else there1?"
"Once or twice Mr. Wallace was
there."
"What was Mrs. Stokes attired in?"
"She wore her underclothing and'
once or twice she had on a kimono'
when she came to the dour of the room
to lei me in."
Th< witnei - cou Id m I say under
cross-examination by Mr. Littleton
that she had ever seen ?lrs. Stbkes in
bed in the apartment of Mr. Wallace,
e adhered to her statement about
the t?te of undress in which she had
seen the defendant.
Joseph A. Thornton, superintendent
of the building at 13 East Thirty-fifth
Street, testified he liad seen Mrs.
Lok? in the building at bast two
dozen times in the years 1914, 1915 and
1916. Thornton was nol certain about
the dates. Mr. Littleton told the wit
nes that Mrs. Stokes was in Lexing?
ton, Ky., from June to October, 1915.
He also mentioned that, Mrs. Stokei
gave birth to one of her two children

Mrs. Dixon had been visiting her
cousin, Mrs. Alexander Hlinn, at 1323
Fast Fifteenth Street, Brooklyn, and
waa retuniiiij? to Philadelphia Tuesday
night when she missed the jewelry as
she changed from the local to the ex?

Mrs. Pixon said that while waiting j

Stillmaii Suit
Truce Ended;
Fight Renewed
(Continued from pig? one)
time. Mis. Leeds, Mrs. Bartkoff thought,
was on the stage: it was her belief at
the time that she had been appearing
at the Century Roof and that her stage
name was Florence Lawler Other.;,
who were in the apartment house at
the time, among them Fred Ivans, the
superintendent, also thought that Mrs.:
Leeds was on the stage.
Morris Gest, of the Century Roof, |
was certain last night, after consulting
everybody who ought to know, that
Florence Lawler never had appear?
ed there either under that, name ot?
as Florence Leeds, Miss England, Flo?
renz Ziegfeld's secretary, said Florence
Lawler never had appeared tin re.
Mrs. Leeds was a tenant of the apart?
ment house on Kighty-sixth Street
from October, 1917, tu July of last
vear. Where she went nobody in the ?
house knows. It was understood that j
she was going to another apartment
house on Park Avenue, hut it was said
there that no apartment hail been
rented to a Mrs. Florence Leeds in the
last year. The city directory for 1920
'21 lists Florence Leeds and Frank
Leeds, a manager, as tenants of 64 Fast
Eighty-sixth Street.
Papers Served Last Year
It was learned yesterday that it was
in July, 1920, that Mr. Stillman served
the papers in his divorce action on his
v.-ife. It was July 8, 1920, when Mrs.
Stillman and Guy, the baby whose le?
gitimacy is questioned in the suit, were
about to sail for Europe on the Olym?
pic, that Mr, Stillman'.; process serv?
ers found them.
Papers were filed at once in the vil?
lage of ('arme!, county seat of Putnam
County, where they reposed for montl -,
m the files without arousing tin sus ?
ilici?n of any one that the defendants,
were the wife and child of one of New ?
York's foremost bankers. The baby
v.-t'.s named as co-defendant in the first I
document filed by Cornelius .1. Sulli?
van, one of Mr. Stillman's attorney's
in the County Clerk's office at Carmel.
This document is as follows:
"Upon information and belief, the
defendant, Cuy Stillman, is an infant,
under the age of fourteen years, whose
present place of residence is unknown
to this deponent.
"On the 8th day of July, 19 !0, on
board the White Star -tea m .-hip Olym?
pic, while, docked at Pier No. 59, North
River, at the foot of West Seventeenth
Street, Borough of Manhattan, City,
County and State of New York, was
duly served the summons in this action
on the said infant, defendant, Guy
Stillman, the mother of said
defendant, personally and leaving same
with her.
"It is accordingly asked that the
court, in the interest of the defendant,'
Guy Stillman. make an order requiring
?t copy of the summons to be also de?
livered in behalf of said infant to a
person designated in the order and
that service of summons on said infant
shall not be deemed complete until
said summons is so delivered.
"No pre''.on- application has been
made for tl e reli< f herein so igl t,"
The next document to be filed iv ;
. an order and affidavit, signed by Su
premc Court Ju itice Morschauser Sen
tember 18, 1920, designating John E.
. Mack, o!' Poughkeepsie, a: guardian ad
litem for the child. Following that was
! stipulation agreeing to Cue appoint?
ment of Surjogate Daniel J. Gleason as
. referee to take testimony in tue case.
For a time the proceedings went
1 forward in the smooth manner in which
NTew York City attorneys conduc
vorce action' in those convenient up?
state counties where no papers have to
be filed until judgnn nt is entered.

From that da> the litiga i
b mai king time and reps ris havi
been frequent that rather than have
the details of the charges printed in
newspapers and discussed throughout
the country, Mr. Stillman's nttorneys |
and these retained by hi.; wife, would I
get together and frame an agreement
to which both parties to the action
would subscribe.
The new report that these rumored
negotiations have been broken off, was
said tu be based upon the fact that
Mr, Mack, Guy's guardian ad litcm,
would still be tree, in spite of any
agreement between husband and wife,
te bring au independent action to de
fend tin' name and reputation of hin
ward if he thought justice required ?t.
Such an action, it was pointed cat,
probably would lay bare the asser
tions made by Mr. Stillman m support
01" Ins divorce action, regardless of the
fad ! I at he had dropped it.
Motion May Com? I'p Saturday
In support of the rumor that nego?
tiations had been broken off, it waa
learned from an authoritative : urce
that the long-postponed motion of Mrs.
an's counsel for an i ncrea ed a;
lowance probably would come up be?
fore Just icn Morschauscr in Pough
kcepsie Saturday. John F. Bi
of M rs. Stillma n';. attorney: had
.. conferen ?? i'ith Justice Mors ' ? er
; iterday in his chambers concerning
the :??( illninn case, but di dined to dis?
cuss it with reporters.
"Is there any chance of the Stillman
mit being settled?" Mr. Brennan was
r s k e d.
"You never can tell," I.e. replied
smiling.
Justice Morschauser said that no mo?
tion had been made in the case before
him in chambers and that the &ecrecy
which had surrounded the case was at
an end so far as lie was concerned.
"There will le no star chamber pro?
ceedings in connection with this suit,"
he said. "If there are any arguments
they will be ? '? the open, you can rest
a;-Ml rod."

Ship's Carpenter Found
Slain in His Bunk
Eighteen-Year-Old Messmate i;*
Arrested, Charged With
ihe Crime
Edward Lope/., twenty four years old,
the Bhlp'a carpenter on the steamship

pany line, was shut and killed yester?
day afternoon while lying in his ?bunk
on tho ship. Olaf Schau, eighteen years
oid, a me- .male of Lope/., was arrested

of Lopez. Schau denied the charge.
Detectives who were assigned to the

Clara Hamon
^Waives Final
Plea to Jury
(Ooottnued from pao? onf)
eral impression wns that the defense
either must fee] reasonably certain of
u favorablo verdict or beliovo an argu?
ment would neither help nor injure
(liara Hamon's standing in the eyes of
the twelve men.
The chargo to the jury was delivered
before the state began its argument,
as Is provided under the Oklahoma law.
In it Judge Champion instructed that
a plea of self-defense could be justi?
fied only by extreme danger threaten-I
ing the defendant. He. said:
"The defendant claims as justifica?
tion that she acted in .self-defense of
her person. It. is the right of every
person to act in defense of her own
person, where she is assailed in such a
way to make it reasonably appear that
lier life nt the time is in imminent
danger, or that she is in imminent
danger of serious personal injury."
? 'iara bad testified yesterday that
Flamon was shot by a revolver in her
hand as ho struck her with a chair.
The court pointed out that if the jury
brought, in a verdict, of guilty of mur- j
der, its duty would bo to specify ,
whether the penalty should be death |
or life imprisonment.
Earlier in the day the crowd which ]
again had packed the courthouse as :
the climax in Clara Hamon's trial ?
neared had been disappointed when
the court refused to accept is evi?
dence a large sheaf of love letters
supposably written to Clara by Hamon. j
Their hunger for the dramatic was
rewarded, however, when, after the
charge to the jury, Rpecial Prosecutor
Brown made his plea for Clara's con- j
viction.
Widow Sits Beside Children
Through it all the widow of Hamon
sat with her two children, .Take jr. and
Olive Hell. Attired in deep mourning,
she sat with her head bowed and her
handkerchief to her eyes. She heard
Mr. Brown say: "Jake Hamon was bet?
ter off dead than living the life he was.-'
And she beard the prosecutor relate the
?' ation of years between her hus?
band and the woman who sat, across the |
counsel table from her. If Clara was'
affected in any way by Brown's argu- j
ment she kept her emotion hidden. Sit?
ting erect she kept her.eyes on the jury,
now and then shifting them to Mr.
Brown, who walked up and down before
the jury (?enouncing her.
" i ' y have refi rred to this de- I
fendant as a country girl," said Mr.
Brown, pointing at Clara. "You men
noticed her while she '.vas on the
tand. Did you see fer soft rands, hear
that cooing voice, trained through re
hea rsa! ?"
"Don't let her voice, her silks, furs
and painti I face mi bad you," shouted
Brown. "Even old Cleopatra, who
caused Antony's death, committed . ui
cide. She contracted her honor away
as von men would sell your cotton."
