Mrs. DeSaulles’ story of her seeing her husband aboard a yacht with the Duke of Manchester surrounded with a “bevy of Broadway's choicess beauties” came into the examination of the witness at thig point. “Did you not know that Mr. De. Saulles was then associated with the Duke in a deal to furnish hors the Allled governments in which husband cleaned up $50,000,” asked Weeks. I never knew {ihat, DesSaulles. Another letter was read in which Mrs. DeSaulles begged her husband s forgiveness for “spending se-absurd- iy on clothes.” “I'll not do it again,” she wrote. ““You have worked so hard and deserve success,” another part of the letter said. “Did you mean that?” Saulles was asked. replied Mrs. Mrs. De- ing hard,” was her answer. Attorney Weeks put his questions in a gentle, modulated tone leading the witness by carefully detailing his interrogations when M DeSaulles did not catch their meaning. Mrs. DeSaulles testified that she was “very unhappy,” and ‘‘very hurt’ over an incident in London when De Saulles would not permit her to stay at the same hotel where he was stop- ping. “But you said nothing of that in this letter, did you?” asked Mr. Weeks. He had just read another let- ter written by Mrs. DeSaulles to her husband in which the words of affec- tlon characterizing the other missives were repeated. “My heart was broken when I wrote that letter, but I would not tell him 50, replied the witness. A portiom of this letter told of a dance Mrs. DeSaulles had attended. She saild she had danced until she “had no feet left to stand on.” “You had a good time at dance?” asked Weeks. “You can dance with your feet even though your heart is broken,” an- swered Mrs. DeSaulles. In another part of the letter the defendant wrote that at the dancing party “some of those funny cocktails that taste like dirty water and look like diluted milk” had been ordered for her. “One can smile with heart,” was Mrs. DeSaulles’ answer to another question by Mr. Weeks re- garding the letters in which the wit- that broken case of scarlet fever, the fifth in the city, was quarantined on Myrtle street by the health department today.

But were yvour words of love for vour husband sincere—did you mean them?” interrupted Justice Manning. “T did,” replied the witness. While enroute to Chile for a visit with relatives Mrs. DeSaulles testified that she believed her “was at an end—morally “You will pardon me for putting the question directly, but do you mean that you intended you would mnever again live together as man and wife?" “I thought that if I was leaving him I wouldn’t,” was the reply. Attorney Weeks then read a letter written by Mrs. DeSaulles to her husband while on hoard ship enroute to South Amer- ica. In this she wrote that she had not been a good wife,” to him but that she hoped he would have the success which he deserved. “Did you mean that?"” asked Weeks. “He had always made me believe that T avas to blame for everything,” was the reply. swer to further questions the denied that after the birth of their son she had not lived with De Saulles as “‘man and wife” or that she had told a woman friend she did not care who DeSaulles went around with,” so long as he stayed away from her. Weeks is “Tiresome.” ‘Wecks exhibited a copy of another letter written by DeSaulles to his wife in which he said. “Not only have you refused to live with me for the last four years but you seem to glory in the fact,” he continued: “You have about reached the end of your tether with my patience.” He admonished her “to turn over a new leaf.” Mrs. DeSaulles said she had no rec- ollection of being interviewed by At- torney Weeks at the jail the morn- ing following the shooting. She safd she could not recall mak- ing out a check for §1,080 to bail out her maid, Susanne Mont&u. who had been held as a material witn Neither could the witness account for an interview published in a New Yorlk paper shortly after the shoot- ing which gave intimate details con- cerning her life. She said she could not recall having given the informa- tion contained in the story to her lawyer, Henry A. Uterhart, or to any- one else, nor could she recall having seen Mr. Uterhart, until August 13— ten days after the tragedy. Asked to tell her first when she came to’consciousness the jail following the tragedy, DeSaulles said: “I felt such a depression head.” In relation to Mrs. DeSaulles’ statement yesterday that she met with an automobile accident in Chile which affected her head, Mr. Weeks asked whether it was not a fact that she had attended a social function the very night of the accident and had id on her return home that she had been complimented on the band- age she wore. The answer was “no.” At this point, a juror yawned so loudly Attorney Weeks turned to the justice and said: “The jury seems to be tired.” You can't blame the jury—anyone would be tired,” interjected Mrs Saulles in a tone scarcely audible to Attorney Weeks and Justice Manning. “You mean that I am tiresome?" asked Weeks. “Ye answered the witness. life ‘“she knew sensations in Mrs. in my “I thought then that he was Work-\ The letter written by Mrs. DeSaulles while enroute to Chile follows: “Dear Jack: “Just before leaving I want to tell you that I am really sorry for having made ‘you so unhappy and I want you to please forgive me and realize that if T hurt you it was always uncon- sciously. I know though that no ex- cuse makes it any better, a hurt is a hurt “But I want you to know that I have always been fond of you and admired you as a man among men, and nothing will ever change that. That I was not able to make you a good wife will ever be a regret to me, and a source of reproach. Circum- stances and people change so much that who knows, that some day, if vou wanted still, we might still be appy. However, I feel though that you do not like me, and will never want to see me again, and though I Justly deserve it, it does hurt, because as I say, I am very fond of you and shall always be interested in all your doings and hope from the bottom of my heart that you will find the happi- ness which is your due.

Miss Stevens Says Some of Prisoners’ Demands Are Granted. Washington, Nov. 2 to the Natianal Woman's party, the militant suffragist organization, Su- perintendent Zinkhan, of the Wash- ington jail, is authority for a state- ment that eighteen militants are hunger-striking . in his institution. Miss Doris Stevens, acting chairman of the Woman's party, said that she was trying to arrange a meeting be- tween the commissioners of the Dis- trict of Columbia, the superintendent of the jail and the suffragists prison- ers with reference to bringing about better conditions in the jail. “Our women will never give in, said Miss Stevens, “until their de- mands for decent living conditions are granted.” Miss Stevens sald the things for which the suffragists were hunger-striking had been grant- ed, including fresh air, immunity from aring prison clothes, outdoor exer- cise, the privilege of hooks and vVis- itors to some of the suffrasists and milk and egps to several Miss Stevens to the a letter written to Miss Ma of Philadelphia, by Miss M prisoner, in which forcible feeding is described. Miss McShane said she had been seven days without food and had fainted in her cell. She describes haw the jail physician appeared “with a tube that looked like a hose, and a pint of milk in which two eggs had been stirred up,” and forced the milk and eggs down her throat. According that several of newsp: MAY NEED MORE SEALS. Tlll!"‘l'«'nlnsli Relief nds Supply Going Socicty Fast. Owing to the large sales, the New Britain Tuberculosis Relief society. which is handling the sale'of Red Cross seals, may be obliged to secure an additional allotment. Indications are that the 350,000 sent here will be insufticient to supply the demand. The campaign amang the factories which always produces the greatest revenue will not be launched until after Thanksgiving. In spite of this fact, the sales this year are greatly in excess of those made at the same time last vear. The school children, on whom the society depends for the disposal of a large portion of the seals, are responding well. The allotment for New Britain this vear is 50,000 more than the number sold here last year and the seals werc placed on sale November 15 because of the necessity of mailing Christm packages for abroad at an carly date. The society plans 1o give prizes to the children selling the greatest num- ber of seals. CARD DUELS IYS. All arrangements are complete for the EIks' forty-five battle tomorrow evening at 8 o'clock when many of the most prominent members, well known as card sharps, will play in the tournament for several 15 pound tur- keys. Some of thc members have been boasting of their\ability for the past week and have cven gone so far as forbidding their better half to buy turkeys for Thanksgiving, saving that they will bring home the “bacon.”” The competition promises to be of the most bitter nature and the prize winners will earn for themselves a place in the Elks' hall of fame. k ON THEIR WAY.
