STIRLING VICTOR
IN DIVORCE FIGHT
Court Grants Him Freedom
on His CroSS-Com-
plant.

EDINBURGH, March 10-Judge Guth-
RE. who presided in the notorious Stir
ling divorce case. today handed down
his decision, granting John Alexander
Stirling a divorce on his cross-com-
plant.
Mrs Clara Elizabeth Stirling. former
" an actress of Washington d. c.,
sued her husband for divorce, naming
Mrs. Mabel Anterior, a famous English
beauty, as correspondent Stirling re-
piled with a cross suit, saying that his
wife had been unduly intimate with
Lord Northland.
At the hearing Of the case, sensational
evidence was produced which crowded
the court room daily and showed at
least a very lax moral code in that sec
ton Of English society which figured
in the case.
Under the Scotch law. Judge Guth-
ries decision goes into effect at once
and Mrs. Stirling loses all title to her
marriage settlement, while Stirling can
claim a life interest in his wifes prop
erty. Stirling was given the custody
of tie only child
Judge Guthrie entirely discredited the
claim of Mrs. Strings counsel that
Stirling had plotted 70 drive his wife to
seek the consolation Of Lord North
lands society. and said that the cor
respondence in evidence between Mrs.
Stirling and Lord Northland was Of the
most guilty character possible.
Mrs. Strings counsel announced that
the decision would be appealed to the
higher courts.
Judge Guthrie causticauy commented
on the selfish idle lives lived by the per
sons who figured in the case. and said
there was little of legitimate interest
in the sorGid tale. The mental endOW-
ments OF Mrs. Stirling ard Mrs. Ather-
ION. he remarked, could not be reckoned
high.
