WOOD MARRIAGE

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
NEW YORK. May 20.-So weak from
the infirmities of age he could. moi stand
unsupported, United States Senator
Thomas Collier Platt. the Easy Boss 4,
tottered into the Supreme Court to-
day and absolutely and positively de-
MED every allegation made by Mae
Wood in her suit for absolute divorce in
which she names the senator's wife,
from whom he is separated, as the CO.
respondent. Flats entry TO the court
room was on a par with his entry
to the State and National conventions
Of the past eight years. Supported IN
either side by Mr. and Mrs. AAel, his
nurses, he tottere down the a'slc and
was assisted to his seat in tire wit
ness chai-. As the Bibie was passed
to him his fingers Ireun'ed 50 1t seemed
about to fall but he finally managed to
KISS Il and was duty sworn.
The Senator displayed intense feel
ing as he denied the authorship of the
letters that have eben introduced and
which Miss Wood swears he penned to
her. He admitted he knew the plaintiff
in 1901 and met her frequently. He
had also corresponded with her. ne
said. but had never seen her in the
Oriental Hotel where she says he pro-
posed TO her.
The alleged marriage in the Fifth
Avenue Hotel he declared was a myth
as nothing of the kind had ever taken
place. When passed the so-called mar
riage certificate he inspected 1t closely
and then declared that it was the first
time he ever saw II. He swore post
lively he did not introduce two men
to Miss Wood and tell her one of them
was a minister. nor was he preesnt
when one of them eprformed the cere-
mony of marriage between himself and
Mae Wood.
