THE HAMS CASE.

Orgy, scandal and marital inidelity
all had their part in the testimony Of
fered yesterday at the trial Of Thornton
Hams, on trial as accessory to the muir
der by his brother of William E. Aunis,
at BIyside, L. l., on August 10.
Stories of designations and misbehav-
iors by the wife of Captain Peter O.
Hams, jr., came DOT in the testimony OF
Samuel Chester Reid, friend of the
Hams brothers, and from Minnie RhoGe,
cook in the home of Captain HsinS.
Reid's testimony showed that close
friendship had existed between bin aud
Annis's slayer, for he told Of statements
made 10 him by Captain Bains, REVEALING
all the horrible scandal arising from the
friendship between Aunis and Mrs.
Hams while her husband was In the
Philippines.
Catching his wife In lie after lie, &C.
cording to Reid, Captain Hams began
running out the stories she told him Of
trips che made to New York and the
Adiroudacks, and found that his wife
had inysriably been with Aunis on secret
excursions. Driven to the point where
SIZE could no longer hide the story OF her
Intimacy she broke down and confessed
every hing, crying;
NT love B lily Annis 10 the FIVE years
I have been married l have never known
what love is until now.
Prior to her confession, but not before
the husband had heard the ugly rumors
connected with the name Of the wife lie
had left behind him in the ststss, Cap
tain Hams invited Annis to dinner in
bis home at Fort Hamilton that 1t might
create the impression among bis friends
that he, too, bad heard the stories, in.
vestigated them and found them untrue,
as evidenced by his having Annis at his
home.
In the testimony of the Rhone woman
there was revealed one of the sources
from which Captain Hams obtained in
formation about his wife's misdeeds.
According to the witness, she told
Hams Of smoking scenes 10 bis home at
late hours Of the night; Of Annis hiding
when outsiders visited the home while
be was there, and of someu aults turned
by Mrs. Hams, during which athletic
evolutions AnDis would "smsck" her.
She said these cries made the husband
wiring his hands and pull bis bair.
