SCANDAL LEFT OPEN
Court Refuses to Cloak Even ar
Erring CLERGYMAN.

New York, Oct. 7.vAfter> granting
an interlocutory degree of divorce to
E. Bartol Hall from Emma Hall, who
had named the Rev. Benjamin @. Dem
ham, former Brooklyn clergyman,
now preaching in Missouri. E. as cor
respondent, Judge Aspinall of the su-
preme court refused the request of
counsel for Mrs. Hall that the papers
In the case be sealed and sharply con-
demned the practice of keeping the
testimony in such cases secret.
Ever since the scandal that con-
nected the name of the Rev. Denham
and that of Mrs. Emma Kirk Hall,
efforts have been made to conduct the
divorce actin brought by Mr., Hall
as quietly as possible. The action
was sent to a referee, Herbert B.
Brush, and his report, recommending
an interlocutory decree of divorce in
favor of the husband, was handed into
Justice Aspinall to be signed. The
attorneys asked to have the report
and papers sealed up and kept from
the newspapers.
To Protect Clergyman.
"Why should seal such papers
up?" inquired Justice Aspinall, sharp
ly.
He was told that this was a case
where clergyman was involved.
well, why should the court pro-
tect clergyman If the clergyman is
guilty pal<y?" insisted the court.
1T is not I2r the sake of the
clergyman" said the counsel, that
ask this, but for the sake of public
decency. I speak, too, in behalf of a
woman led astray by the clergyman. u
II don't think any court is going
to protect any such fellow as that, 81
said Justice Aspina1l warmly, and he
asked whether the clergyman was
still preaching.
"He is preaching in Missouri" re-
piled the lawyer.
Would Expose Scandal.
What! Preaching! I don't see why
I should protect him. think that all
the publicity possible should be given
such matters as this. 1t Is very
good thing that we have newspapers
In which such scandals as 'this can
be exposed"
A few minutes later, Judge Aspin-
all affixed his signature granting the
plaintiff an interlocutory decree of di-
VOrce ana the papers, all open, were
put on the clerks desk ready to be
entered and then sent to the county
clerks office.
The testimony taken before Referee
Brush proved to be very interesting,
for 1t showed that Mrs. Hall admitted
her guilt before her husband. a woman
friend and clergyman friend of the
family. Mrs. Hall, according to the
testimony, admitted thta she had
travelled through Canada and this
country, some times as brother and
sister and some times as husband and
wife, with the Rev. Mr.. Denham.

brary committee, which in the past
had charge OF the purchase of new

the entire board will take charge of
this part OF the work.
The members decided to commence at
once to inaugurate card system of

tents.

suffered in a trolley car collision at

A similar answer No the same query
was given by DR.. John d. McGlll, OF

The case went 10 the jury this after
noon.
The question was hypothetical one
made to fit the case of Miss McKenna
She was saleswoman and was re-
quired to remain on her feet for long
periods. The doctor said the wearing
of the corsets would be likely to cause
weakness which would affect the
wearer.
Miss McKenna claims that as the re-
suit of her injuries she has been un-
able to work, has lost her earning ca
pacity, and is unable to sleep.

Russia wants treaty Revised.

ST. PETERSBURG. Oct 6.--The in
tention of Russia to conyoke congress
of the powers to discuss revision of the
treaty of Berlin was the subject OF
lengthy conferences yesterday between
Acting Minister of Foreign Affairs
Tcharykoff and the diplomatic repre-
sentatives of the powers interested.
These included the Turkish, British and
Austro- hungarian ambassadors. No
statement of the attitude of the Rus
sian government Is obtainable today,
and the diplomats are unwilling to
commit themselves regarding the pos
sibility of Turco- Bulgarian war; but
the general impression is that Turkey
will not regard Bulgaria's action, which
was taken in the face of emphatic Rus
sian protests, as a cause for war.
