NOTED SACKV|LLE
CASE FALLS FLAT
Court Practically Throws Out Suits
Started By Son Of Late Dip
lomat To Acquire Title.

LONDON. Feb. 2.-Judge Sir John
Bigham, Of the probate court prac.
tically threw out OF court today the
famous "Sackyille peerage case"
whereby Ernest Henry Sackville
West, son OF the late Lord Lionel
Sackville West, former minister 10
Washington, sought To acquire the
title and estate left by his father.
Judge Bigham on the strength OF
evidence presented by Sir Robert Fin
ley said he was satisfied that Josefa
Duran, the Spanish dancer and moth
or OF the claimant, whom Lord Sack
Vile was said To have married some
time between 1863 and 1867 while at.
tached to the English legation at Mad
rid, was married at the time to An
tonic De LaOliva, who died in 1868.
Even granting the contention OF the
petitioner that Lionel Sackville was
married to the claimants mother, the
judge said the marriage was illegal,
thus destroying the petitioners rights
TO the Sackville title and estate which
are now held by Lionel Sackville
West, a nephew OF Lord Sackville,
who married his cousin. the sister OF
the petitioner.
Sir Robert also produced a docu-
ment written by Lord Sackville, on
Sept. %, 1881. declaring that he was
never married TO Josefa Duran, hav-
ing admitted the marriage to save the
name OF the woman and that the
claimant and five other children born
10 him and Josefa were ilegitimate.
Damaging letters written by the
petitioner himself were produced by
the defense. One was written TO the
petitioners sister Victoria, on the oc-
casion OF her marriage In 1890. to her
cousin, the present Lord Sackville In
this letter. the petitioner definitely
admitted that he and his sister were
illegitimate and praised their father
for the treatment he had accorded
them.
In a letter which Lord Sackville
wrote to the petitioner on Oct 81,
1896 in reply to a letter in which the
son had asked for the recognition OF
the children's legitimacy, he said:
II never married your mother. Con-
sequently you. as we'll as your broth
ers and sisters. are illegitimate.'
The writer expressed the pain II
gave him TO have to write TO his son
to this effect.
Another letter from the late Lord
Sackville, in which he refused to let
his children by Josefa visit him In
England, on account of the scandal 1t
would cause. was read to the court.
In 1903 Ernest Henry Sackville
West tried TO have his right to the
title and estate Of his father estab-
lished, but was defeated.
Lord Sackville was dismissed from
his post of English minister to Wash
ington by President Cleveland, for
writing a letter TO correspondent In
California. stating that the reelection
OF Cleveland would be satisfactory to
England

Dairymen's association, which Is be-

his candidacy for the Republican

MRS. FORD'S TRIAL
WILL CONTINUE
Court 0verrules Motion BY Her At
torney To Dismiss Case-"Men
Higher Up" lnvolvedl

CINCINNATI. Ohio, Fob. 2.-The
blackmail trial of Mrs. Jeanette
Ford will continue and Charles L.
WARMERS testimony before the
grand jury will not be divulged at this
time. WARMERS testimony before the
grand jury concerned his confessed
embezzlement OF $643 900.
/ Judge Swing today overruled the
motion to dismiss made by. Attorney
Thorndyke late Tuesday for Mrs.
Ford. He stated that there is not
pending before the supreme court Il
case from the Franklin county court
which covers the controversy between
! the court and Prosecutor Hunt over
the making public of testimony before
the grand jury. Judge Swing stated
that pending the supreme courts de-
cision, he would hold his final decis-
ion in the matter In allegiance and that
meanwhile the Ford trial would con-
tinue.
In view Of rumors that Men higher
up" are protected by the stand Of the
Prosecutor against producing the tran.
scripts of testimony by Warmer be-
fore the grand jury, court house at
taches saw significance in a call paid
to Prosecutor Hunt by Judge Hack (
ney, general counsel for the Big
Four. Hackney was In conference
with Hunt for nearly an hour this
morning.
The unromantic love affair of Mrs.
Jeanette Ford and Edward S. Cooke, !
was told yesterday in series OF let
tiers written by Mrs. Ford to Cooke, and
produced by the prosecution in the
trial of the woman charged with at
tempting to blackmail Charles l..
Warmer, formerly treasurer of the
Big Four railroad and now serving a
term In the Ohio state penitentiary
for embezzling $643,000. Each letter
mentioned Warmer as the man to
whom she was going TO for money
The prosecution intends that each
letter be an argument that Mrs. Ford
knew that Warmer was short In his
accounts and with this knowledge got
money from him and compelled him
to force Cooke to her side.
No detail of the letters was omit
ted. vulgar letter was followed by
a tender sentiment about her boy, or
her daughter and In the very next
line there was fierce threat against
the wife that stood between Mrs Ford
and Cooke.
Mrs. Ford looked straight ahead as
these "details were read, The men
that damned the courtroom heard

hear
Every lawyer in town who could
spare himself from business was pres
ont. The Judge called for order

which she declared amending warfare
