MOTHER S0BS WHEN
CHILD TURNS FROM
HER To UNCLE
LITTLE IRENE CONNOLLY ELECTS
IN COURT NOT TO LIVE WITH
PARENTs-PRIEsT FIGURES IN
CASE.

Mrs. Margaret Wallace, OF No. 16s
Congress-st. east. was denied posses
sion OF her daughter. Irene. aged IL,
by Judge Donovan. Saturday morning,
after the little girl had told the judge
In his private room that she would
rather live with her uncle. Andrew
Connolly, In Fairview. The girls
wishes were respected and she left
the court In charge of her uncle. while
her mother. shaking with sobs. left
the court by another exit. and started
toward home alone.
Mrs. Wallace was left a widow
when Irene was a baby, and being un-
able to care for her child. she gave
the little girl TO her grandmother
Margaret Connolly. mother Of Mrs.
Wallace's first husband. The grand
mother died Friday, and the mother
at once commenced proceedings to get
the child back. Edward Connolly. u
son, refused to give her up. and Mrs.
Wallace secured a writ Of habeas
corpus
The Connollys claim that Mrs. Wal
lace is'not the proper person to have
the care OF a child. They testified
that she drinks. and Is living with
man TO whom she Is not legally mar
ried. Mrs. Wallace admitted that she
was never divorced from her first hus
band. but said she was told that after
she had been deserted for Ave years
she was free to marry again without
divorce. Judge Donovan had few
caustic remarks TO make about the
person giving her such advice.
FIR. Doherty. of st. Bartholomew
church, made plea for the child. and
asked that she be placed under his
charge in the House OF the Good
Shepherd. He said that he had prom
Used before God that he would have
the child brought up Catholic, and
he wished TO carry out that promise.
The uncle to whom the child was
awarded is a Catholic. but his wife Is
a Protestant. This request of FIR.
Doherty was opposed by the attor-
ney for Mrs. Wallace. who claimed
that the question OF religion could
make no difference with the court.
and that only the child's welfare
should be considered.
At the conclusion of the hearing
the child's mother approached FIR
Doherty, and, shaking her fist In his
face, said: This is all your work
sir, and II is done only for spite" The
priest turned and left her without
replying.

SLUMP CONTINUES
IN STOCK

NEW YORK. Aug. l5.-The slump
OF yesterday was continued in today ;

for margins after last nights close,
and the early selling showed clearly
that the response was not as prompt

Client support forthcoming for Union

II is the expressed view OF the
strong bull leaders that the reaction
was but natural and healthy; that
there were definite objects In view
which have not yet been attained by
the bull contingent. and that the mon
ey market contains no feature that
will interfere In the least with the
policy that was inaugurated by them
sometime past.
This policy has been quietly alluded
TO in certain private quarters to cover
the advance of stocks TO point
where, should there be passing
furry thai would carry prices TO a
lower level, there could not by any
possible chance be developed a
panicky sentiment by reason OF a de-
Neloping assurance OF lettering bust
ness based upon all commercial con-
ditions of the country.
This feeling. il is thought. would
serve amply to check any momentary
rumors that the bear element might
spread.
In other words, good crops, the
increasing industrial situation. ana
improving foreign trade would all
tend TO hold the financial operations
at better level and maintain the
distribution OF securities in the hands
of the public at approximately high
levels.
Faith in Hartman Stocks

still believes strongly in the furtner

most eggstrordinary fighter I've ever

no right to be there at all.

o the biggest and strongest men I've
