Court.
Prior to her marriage to Colonel Dye, in
1861. Mrs. Dye was Mrs. William II. Duke
hart. Her first husband divorced her in
1865. and she was forbidden to marry
again. Despite the court decree, she said
she was married to Colonel Dye, and they
lived together until 1907. In 1910 the Ap-
pellate Division declared the marriage void
on the ground that Colonel Dye had a wife
living when he married Mrs. Dukehart
James w. Putnam. who keeps a board
ing house on the upper West Side, testified
that Colonel Dye and a woman whom he
introduced as his wife lived with him for
three years after 1907 She was not the
plaintiff In reply TO a question he said

tha Spencer. testified that she remembered
the marriage of her sister to the young
soldier. although she was only five years

tinued to-day.

SAYS BROKER MADE PRICES
Telegraph Operator Tells Meth
ods of B. F. Scheftels & Go.

The manner in which George Graham
Rice made the market price" for the
stocks in which B. F. Scheftels & Co. were
directly interested was described yester-
day by Walter s. Campbell. a telegraph
operator formerly in the employ of the
firm. Campbell was a witness at the trial
of Rice and the other members of the
Scheftels firm in the United States Circuit
Court.
Campbell sai6 that whenever he received
orders for stocks he entered them on q
sheet, and if they were "house stocks,
those which the firm was promoting, he
would mark the order as filled by making
a ring around it, The price at which Gus
toner ordered these stocks could not be
different from the market price he said,
because Rice made the market price.
Rice called me up in the morning or
left a memorandum for me the night be-
fore fixing the bid and asked price for the
house stocks at the opening of the mar
ket" Campbell said. II would fill. buy or
sell orders at those prices before the mar
ket opened An order coming from a
branch Office could not be at any other
price than the one made by Rice in the
morning because / would telegraph the
price to all the branches"
In cross examining John J. Delaney, or
der clerk of Scheftels. who. although in
dicted has become a witness for the gov
ernment, Louis j. Vorhaus. counsel Tor
the defence. attempted to show that De-
laney turned against his former associates
because he was afraid OF the influence or
such men as United States Senator Nixon,
George Wingfield and the Guggenheims'
whom Mr. Vorhaus said, Rice had exposed
in magazine articles published recently.
Delaney denied this. but said he told
Rice he was making a mistake I'm attack
ing Senator Nixon. the Guggenheims and
others and only endangered himself and
his co-defendants at the trial
Mr. Dorr Assistant United States Attor-
ney. then asked Delaney whether Rices
attack on Senator Nixon and others made
him think that he and Rice would be con-
victed whether they were guilty or inno-
cent.
No" said Delaney. they had nothing

Poe and the "Squiggle".
From the Strand.

Y IOHi tHe oliduu.
 That brilliant writer Edgar Allan Poe, once described the mental process of making a squiggle, says the March Strand, and the experience is probably common one with many.
 Scarce able to test my eyes," he wrote, flor more than a moment upon any one object in the room, because of the incessant motion of my head on the pillow, which sought to find in movement some relief from the fever which con- sumed it, I yet became aware of shapes hidden in familiar things. A hundred pairs of eyes stared at me, a hundred mouths grimaced; but when I strove to encounter them they vanished, and only row of hanging garments, the bed and window curtains, an array of bot ties and glasses, the floral pattern of the wall paper, met my gaze. At last, after what seemed hours of futile toss ing, my intelligence seemed to concern trate upon single spot on the wall, figure seemed to loom up two eyes were bent upon mine, and pale, sad face greeted me. I slept; when I awoke I thought it would be gone. But no; it was there still, and there it remained for Weeks-my only friend, whom l frequent ly apostrophized and told my woes"
 Of course, the spiritual visitant was partly compounded of shadow and floral wall paper pattern, the marks of nails and an invalid's imagination and it could scarcely survive returning health and the broad light of day; but 1t had basis of fact all the same, as many of these images have. There is the well known picture of two children engaged in placid play, which, when held at a dis tance, represents with great vividness a human skull, and which is constructed on the same principle as are many bed chamber squiggles.
