Neither Mrs. Lillian n. Duke nor Major
Frank r. Huntoon, the principals in the
Duke divorce case, we're present at the
resumption of the trial before Vice-Chan-
oellor Pitney in the Newark Chancery
chambers yesterday. Chauncey g.. Parker,
one Of the counsel for Mrs. Duke, the de-
PENDANT in the suit, asked for an adjourn
ment Of the trial owing TO the absence
of his colleague, Samuel Kalisch. The
vioe-chancellor refused to grant the re-
quest and ordered the trial TO proceed.

Miss Sands asserted that Major Huntoon

about three times a week, and he kept
on visiting after she became Mrs. Duke.
She reafirmed that on the night of August 80

not,
She was then questioned about the gifts
OF jewels and stocks she had received from
Mr.. Duke, the complainant. She admitted
receiving "a diamond ring from him last
Christmas, but said that 1t had been given
to her TO replace one that she had lost, which
had been given to her by Mr., and Mrs. Duke
shortly after they were married. She ex-
planned the gift OF ten shares Of stock Of
the American Tobacco Company from Mr..
Duke by saying it had been promised to
her on the day of his marriage to Mrs. Duke
She admitted that the gifts she had re-
oeived from Mr.. Duke came after she had
left the service Of Mrs. Duke.
She was ask edit Mr.. Duke had not PROM
