TERS ARE READ Millionaire’s Wife Says They Show She ‘Did Not Marry Him for His Cash. Hiner who had an establishment in the Hotel Ansonia, was brought into court to-day in the trial of the Stokes di- yorce action to confront Mrs. Stokes, who was don, “That woman ts not the telle I knew as a milliner sonia,” Mrs Stokes declared, “I never saw that woman in my life. Ut is @ lie of anyone says that she is Aime. Estelle." Upon ‘her direct examination undergoing cross-¢ amina- Mme, B3- Ane bofore Mrs. Stokes had stated that Mr. Stokes had furnished the money for “Mine, Hs- teile's” establishment, and had con- fessed to his wife a week ufter their marriage that she Was former friend of his Later, Mrs, Gtokes's recollection was @ bit better as to never having ber before. She recalled that the woman brought in as “Mme, Bstelle,” lived somewhere in Rockland County and that she, Mrs. Stokes, and Stokes had visited them once in the matter of some water in which Stokes was in- terested. But she insisted with emphasis that the woman was not ‘Mu Estelle” she knew in the Ansoni: A number of Jove letters written by Mrs, Stokes to her husband in 1911, were introduced in evidence. There was no doubt of their affectionate tone, and Mrs. Stokes declared that these should refute the statement that she had married for money. Also she said that it had taken a long time to kil her Jove and that here were no love letters fram her after 1911. A young woman in elaborate furs and gown Was brought into the court- room to be identified as “Mme. Bs- tele,” early in the trial to-day. She was accompanied by a man and took a seat in the front row of chairs reserved for witnesses, between Stokes’s treasurer and his gecretary. The moment she was directly in front of Mrs. Stokes the latter broke in on a question Mr. Smyth was ask- ing her to exclaim: That isn't saw that woman in my Uf Mr. Smyth turned from the witness to the woman who bad just seated if arid then asked: Do you mean to say that 4s not Mme.

Q A Yes you are if you say she's ‘ .me, Estelle.” Q. Then every one in this case ts iar save yourself, Mrs. Stokes? A. ‘ery one says she is “Mme. telle.”” Mr. Smyth required that Mrs. Stokes turn to her diary, to which she constantly referred during her direct testimony. She was agked why there were no entries in the book about the attacks she alleged her hus band had made upon her. “{ did not want to put things like that in the book for fear gome one it.

According to an affidavit by FE. H Harris, superintendent of the apar ment house, John T. Hettrick, who pictures he has seen in the newspa- pers, and John Rogers were the same man. The name of Rogers peared in the Lockwood committee record, when it was learned from in vestigation of the books of Clark Brothers, bankers, at No. 154 Nassau | Street, that Hettrick had checked out | various sums to Jennie Rogers, who} doposited the checks in the uptown | branch of the Colonial Bank. It was learned that a Jennie Rogers was ‘under subpoena by Mr, Untermyer, counsel to the committer. It was ex- plained that the accounts were in-| vestigated not to pry into Hettrick’s | personal affairs, but on the theory | that the Jennie Roge: count t have been used to conceal payment to politicians or others It was clear to others, but not to Hettrick, that so long as the investi- gation revealed only private affairs, Jennie Rogers would not be asked to testify. With Hettrick’s conviction, the Rogers affair was dropped and would have remained a mystery, but for the Tero Company’s suit. “Rogers,” according to the Tero Realty Company's evidence, gaye Het- trick as a reference when leasing the apartment at $2,000 a year, and Het- trick wrote a flattering recommenda- tion of “Rogers.” The apartment was vacated last February, and on the strength of the affidavit of Superin- tendent Harris Hettrick was sued. The return on the summons showed It was served at No. 101 Centre § the address of the Tombs Prison. Judgment for the $166.47 monthly tal was given against Hettrick by Jennie ap- re! “fT didn’t get the private box,” she ae i During the Lockwood commit session Hettrick lived with his wife at No. 23 West 12th Street, and later Sea- moved to his summer home at fered after this attack upon her by her husband, Q. You testified that Mr. Stokes threatened to get even with you and to put a big negro in your room. Ix there any such entry {n your diary? A. There is an entry in the back for Aug, 2, 1911, which says: “Will frightened me 9 (n, How sorry 1 am I married * 4.” Mr. Smyth " ought to the attention of the witnes a letter written by her to Stokes “fa the summer of 1911," which he read in part as follows: “Will, Dearest: I am just jumping into my lonely bed. I just can't help writing a line to you. This is my firs letter to you and I doubt if you find time to translate it, But T want to let you know that your little wife loves you more every second of the day, even if she fs cross now and I miss you a whole heap mort mn know." Q. You loved your tmsband at the time this was written? A. Yes, I did And that letter should contridict the statement that I married him for his money. Q. You cared for him in 1911? A. Yes, it took a long time to kill my love, but you'll not find a love letter from me to him after that. Q, Did you love him when he held you in bed against your will and then struck you and banged you into the dresser? A. Yes, because, as I have sald, Ht took a long time to kill my |love. | -Another letter from Mrs, Stokes to her husband was read by Mr. Smyth This read in part: “I just can't help writing a few lines to say I am very, very lonesome without you. Mr. and Mrs, Gleason have just left and I felt very lonesome jbecause she had her sweetheart and |I didn't. So you sec what sort of |wife you trave, who wants you every |minute, ‘Take a real early train rack |to your sweetheart. ‘Here is a lot of |love from a bunch of nuisance known |as wife.

A motion was made to-day before Supreme Court Justice Platt in White Plains by Frederick P. Close, of Close & Davis, as counsel for Mrs. Evelym Howell, a society woman of New Rochelle, for $300 a week alimony and | $2,600 counsel fees pending the ¢riat of her sult for a separation from hur husband, Frank 8, Howell, who now holds a responsable position with the United States Government. Close stated in court that two months after the marriage the defendant began to be abusive and cruel and frequently returned home intoxicated. Mrs, Howell also states, in an affi- davit, that her husband was alwa: Jealous of her and on the alightest P cation accused her of accepting attentions from other men. The Howells have lived for some time on Banker Place, an exclusive residen- tial section of New Rochelle. Mr. Howell also owns a country estate in Sullivan County. Another accusation In the complaint of Mrs. Howell, which she claims was an act of cru- city, is set forth as follows in the af« fidavit: “That in the spring of 1920 this plaintiff, In company with a young lady friend of hers and the brother of such lady, went to Hunter Island Inn, When she reached there she found her husband there in company with a woman whom she has since learned is a notorious character. That the defendant saw them enter the restaurant and insisted that this de- ponent and her friends take a seat at his table, That as soon as they were seated the woman in whose company the defendant was began to insult the deponent, created ao scene and threw the contents of a glass from which she was drinking in this deponent’s face.” Humphrey J. Lynch, counsel for Mr. Howell, declared that up to the time of marital trouble the defendant had given his wife $500 a month and that instead of paying her bills Mrs. Howell had been entertaining lavishly at her home, Some time, he said, there would be at least forty people at a house party all night and that they would play leapfrog on the lawn at 5 o'clock in the morning. Mr. Lynch also stated that Mr. How- ell was not a millionaire, but simply held a Government position at Ellis Island at $3,000 a year, He said that Mr. Howell made a fortune in the stock market in 1915, but lost much of it in 1919. He is a member of the New York Athletic Club and several yaoht and other aristocratic clubs in Manhattan, Mr, Howell denied ho was cruel to his wife, and said she was always anxious to visit road- houses, where she entertained fre- quently.
