OVER ESTATE OF 100000

With practically all of the sensation
al evidence in the divorce suit of Mrs.
Louisa Brunner against Herman Brun-
ner, of lottery fame, before the court,
the proceedings yesterday settled down
to an examination of the property til

expected the case will consume about
four more days.
