THE TESTIMONY OF THE Ex-MrNIsTER's SONS TO BE
TAKEN.
The Christiancy divorce case was before the
Equity Court, yesterday afternoon, on a motion
by Mr.. Cole to strike out certain interrogatories
which Messrs- Ingersoll and Cuppy had filed to be
answered by the sons OF Mr. ChriStiancy at an ex-
animation to be held in Michigan Judge Hagner
held that nothing had been shown which rendered
necessary any action OF the court, and he over
ruled the motion, and directed the testimony to be
token, subject TO further exceptions. By George
Christiancy it IS expected to show that Mrs.
Chrtstiancy, after her marriage with the plaintiff,
declared to HIM and others that Mr. Frank Y. An
dersOn was the only man that she loved, and that
while at Lansing she received letters from him
under an assumed name. This son was also with
her In Peru, and made Journey with her in coin
pany with Mr.. George T. Haight To the terminus
of the Oroga railroad and to Chicia, and it is ex
pected to show that she and Haight occupied
rooms at the hotels with a connecting door, and
that their conduct While on the Journey and after
returning to Lima was such as TO make them the
subject OF ScandalOuS talk Mr. Victor ChriStiancy
is expected to contradict the testimony OF the wife
AS to being cruelty treated by her husband while
residing In Lansing, and the constant drunken
ness OF the male members or the family.
