Denies.
CORRESPONDENTS NAMED

Hearing in the Pemberton divorce suit
was continued before Vice-Chancellor
Stevens yesterday afternoon. Suit for
maintenance had been brought by Mrs.
Ella Pemberton against her husband,
Dr. Harry III. Pemberton, Of Long
Branch, and he filed a cross bill and is
suing his wife fer absolute divorce, al
leging acts of infidelity that occurred
years ago and naming Frederick Kraft
and William Anderson, Jr., as core
spendents.
A new witness was put upon the stand
In tie interest of the doctor. He was
7. Benton Murphy, a travelling sales
, man for II. B. Cate, wholesale New
York liquor dealer. On the stand he
swere that he walked down to the foot
of Chelsea avenue, Long Branch, one
night in the summer of 1893, and while
standing on the bluff overlooking the
DetcH LIS dtletAtion was AttRhStcu W tno
persons whom he some minutes after
recognized as Kraft and Mrs. Pember-
ton. 4
Counsel for Mrs. Pemberton, after con-
sultation, decided not to cross-examine
Murphy.
The doctor left Mrs. Pemberton on
September 26, 1901.
Mrs. H NJ Strong testified that On
that occasion she overheard the doctor
say that he would ruin his wife socially
and financially.
The doctors man, Elijah Webster, and
the family. cook, Harriet Payne, both
declared on the stand that all he said
was '.Good night"
The Doctor also went upon the stand
and swore that those were the words he
used He said that he had repeatedly
told his wife to stop going about with
Kraft, and that on one occasion when he
was thus admonishing her she drew re-
volver and threatened to shoot him. She
had him cornered when DR.. Baker
came to his rescue and got the revolver
away from Mrs. Penberton. After that
episode Mrs. Pemberton, said the Doctor,
signed an agreement not to receive fur
ther attentions from Kraft, who at that
time was only seventeen years old.
Mrs. Pemberton again denied an the
charges made against her by her hus-
band, including the assertion that she at
tempted to shoot him, and that of Muir
ply to the effect that she was on the
beach at Long Branch with Kraft on the
night in question. Before she left the
stand she pointed finger scornfully al
Murphy and dramatically exclaimed
''That man couldn't tell the truth if he
tried"
Kraft was put on the stand and de.
