UPTON SINCLAIR'S
DIVORCE HELD UP

NEW YORK, Dec. 21.-Upton
Sinclair's divorce suit will have to be
heard over again. Supreme Justice
Davis has refused to confirm the re-
port of Referee William S. Kelley,
who first heard the evidence and re-
ported in favor of the author, who is
suing his wife, Meta Fuller Sinclair.
Justice Davis reason was that the
referee allowed Sinclair to testify
regarding the alleged relations be-
tween his wife and Harry Kemp, the
tramp poet" whereas the statute
provides that in divorce trial the
husband or wife is not competent to
testify except as to the marriage and
to deny the statutory charges.
The case will be referred to an
other referee.
