very much disheRrtened. BE and his
counsel had been led to believe that the
hearing in the divorce case was prac-

When the case was called before Rel

was made by MIR. Hemilton's counsel to
CLOSE the case, and to submit the testi-
mony to the court, now in session in New
York. Mr.. Fuller smiled at the idea, and
called Philip B. COPYRIGHT of Lsoeyville,
Pa, to prove that Mrs. Hamilton was in
delicate condition while she was visit

prove an affirmative. .... ...~.-
Another sensation in the case to-day
was produced by the testimony by Mrs.

She testified that Eva was to soc her

mony and claimed her story WAS posi- lively
