He ad- Mitted giving Mrs. Stillman a $5,000 Fuby ring at Christmas, 1914, after the dirth of Guy and after the time when be has sought to show he knew Guy ‘was not his son, bu: the son of the Indian guide, Beauvais, Mr. Mack had already charged that Mr. Stillman entered into a con- spiracy with Mrs. Florence H. Leeds, an auburn-haired graduate from a Broadway chorus, to put away his wife, disown ber bahy Guy, legitimize Jay Ward Leeds, and thus secure for him the pro rata share of the grand children in the great estate left by Mr, Stiliman's father. Half an hour before Mr. Stillman wes recalled to the stand Mrs. Still- man joined the conference of her torneys. Her high good humor was apparent. She was dressed in a frock of old rose voile with elbow length sleeves and skirt cut to walking length and was without jewelry. Mr. Stillman arrived at the front door of the Poughkeepsie Trust Bullding at the hour set for the hear- ing. He drove to the curb in a taxi- cab accompaated by Cornellus J. Sul- jivan of his counsel. They hurried into the building, Mr. Sullivan muk- ing indignant public denial, during his progress, that Mr. Stillman had entered through @ cellar areaway yesterday. The stenographers in the windows of neighboring office buildings and many young women among the side: walk sightseers commented with a proval on Mr. Stillman’s green Al- pine hat with a feather at the back of the band. To-day’s questions were framed to foree the admission from Mr. Still- man that he had given jewelry cost- ing him $500,000 to Mra, Florence H.

At any rate, there was no fign of recognition, As to Mr. Suilinan's cross exam ination by Mr, Brennan, it settled nothing, revealed nothing, He de- clined to answer any material ques- tion on the ground that it might tend to incriminate him, He avoided the use of the word “degraded,” which usually is coupled with “incriminate” in the legal form. He answered about his age and weight and place of resi- dence and the name of his yacht, but that was all ; “Did you ha little boy, a child of which you of Florence L the father?
