Special Dispateh POUGHKEEF Reports that a {had eigned an order staying proceed- {ings in the divorce action brought by James A Stillman, president of the { National City Bank, were proved un- {founded today. Neither Mr. Still- {man, his wife nor John E. Mack, ;guard_lan ad litem for Guy Stillman. the* infant whose paternity the | banker denies. {ing for the withdrawal of the case or a settlement out of court. On the | contrary, everything points to a bit- ter fight. Situntion E: Justicé Morschauser, who sat in the ecial term of the supreme court here today after sitting all week in White Plains, explained the situation Which resulted in the belief in New York that the case was being drop- ped. A staying order has been is- sued in the case, but it was issued by Justice Morschauser March 5, when the attorneys for Mr. and Mrs. Still- {man appeared in court here and |argued as to the amount of alimony Mr. Stillman could afford to pay pending decision of the divorce and illegitimacy ~action. Justice Mor- | schauser adjourned the alimony hear- {ing and at the same time ordered {both sides not to take any further | steps in the divorce action itself until {the alimony question was settled. The impression that prevailed in New York to the effect that some other justice than Morschauser had signed the order yesterday and that it stop- Ped the whole proceedings was er- { roneous. No hearing in any phase of the Stillman matter w held here to- day. The only thing that could pos- sibly come into court at the present stage of the proceedings is the ali- mony motion which Justice Mor- schauser in White Plains yesterday definitely put over until Wednesday, when he will sit in White Plains. Try to Fix Exact Income. Wednesday the lawyers for Mrs. ! Stillman will attempt to establisl ithe exact amount of the banker's income from his books or from his own testimony, in order to convince the court that M¢. Stillman can af- ford to pay $10.000 a month alimony, demanded by his wife. It is believed here that the ap- pearance or non-appearance of the lawyers Wednesday will be the final indication of wheéther the Stillmans are going on with the case or not. If the lawyers appear, as they are expected to do, it will probably mean that the divorce action will be fought to a finish. If they fail to appear it -may mean that negotiations for a settlement are Succeeding. Those familiar with both sides, however, believe there will be no edbmpromise. The motive which compelled Mr. Stillman to bring his extraordinary charges against his wife and the son, Guy, is belleved to be so strong that nothing could possibly swerve his determination. Moreover, Mr. Mack, as guardian for Guy, is just jas determined as ever to fight to’the finishto defend the lad's name and his shaYe in the trust fund of millions left by the late James Stillman for James A. Stillman’s use during his life and division of the principal among his heirs at Mr. Stillman’s death.

Some of fhe choicest plants will be sent to the White House and some will be placed this week in the Pan-American build- ing. Most of the blooms will be dis- tributed to Walter Reed and other hospitals. The attendance yvesterday was 16,- 817, which breaks any week-day record of any show ever held by the department.” During the past week the Yotal aftendance has been about double what the department officials had_expected. All day yesterday school children and young men and women from the academies and oolleges about the capital kept pouring into the show. Last night the line waiting to get in continued to press forward until after 9 o'clock. the closing hour.

They are coming by special invitation of Secretary Wal- lace and Dr. Taylor. JAIL WOMEN IN BIG THEFT. Governess and A Maid Held in $500,000 Gem Robbery. MEDIA, Pa.
