FINDS DIVORCE DEFECTIVE,
SUES HUSBANDS SECOND
WIFE FOR ALIENATION

New York. Oct 4-Notwithstanding
the fact that Mrs. Marion E. Simmonds
admitted that she divorced her husband.
Philip r. Simmonds, in Virginia in 1906.
and that later she wrote him a letter
congratulating him on his remarriage
and telling him confidently that she ex-
pected to wed Mai. Carstairs, an Ameri-
can army officer, Mrs. Slmmonds to-day
asked Supreme Court Justice Giegerich
to decide that the Virginia decree was
irregular and grant her 4 divorce in this
State.
She named Mrs. Emily Caldwell SIM
monds. the second wife. in her suit. and
used not only the latter woman. but her
three grown children as witnesses to es-
tablish her charge against Simmonds
To cap the climax of this maze of do
mestic trouble she has sued the present
Mrs. Simmonds for $4,000 for alienation
of her husbands affections.
On the stand to-day Mrs. Simmonds
said that in the spring of 1910 she learned
for the first time that her divorce de-
cree was defective and she was over
whelmed. She went to Mai Carstairs,
breaking the engagement between them.
and retained lawyer to bring suit in
this State and settle the validity Of the
Virginia decree.
The case hinges on the validity of the
Virginia service of the summons and
complaint by mail.

HEARS FROM DEAD" HUSBAND.
Trenton Woman Supposed Self Z
Widow, Spouse Il Alive.

Trenton. N. J.. Oct. I.-Mrs- Thomas
J. McCreden. OF East Front Street. this
city. who for three months had thought
herself a widow. and who had buried
the body of her supposed husband and
collected the insurance money. was
startled to-day when she received a let
ter from Waukon. Iowa. signed with her
husbands name and saying:
II am the man that was killed; but I
am enjoying life"
Last August q man was killed by an
automobile in Burlington County. and
although the body was horribly mutt
lated. the woman identified 1t as that
OF her husband, whom she had not seen
for a long time She arranged the burial.
which took place in Bordentown. and
collected the insurance money. which.
she says, was only enough to cover the
cost of the funeral.
McCreden in his letter says he saw
the story Of his supposed death and bu-
rial in a recent paper and thought he
would write to let his wife know that
he was all right, even though far from
home. Now Mrs. McCreden and the po-
lice authorities are wondering as to
whose body was buried.

COTTON POOL CASE
NOW up TO COURT
Arguments Were Completed Yester-
day by Both Sides Before
Highest Tribunal.

With the concluding words of the argu-
ment submitted on behalf of the gov
ernment yesterday by Solicitor General
Buliitt. the Supreme Court took under
advisement a case that Is considered TO
be one Of the most important of any
that has yet arisen involving a con-
struction of the Sherman antitrust law.
The case was an appeal from the tudg-
ment of the Federal court for the
southern. district of New York in what
has come to be known popularity as the
cotton pool case.
Certain defendants, James A. Patten
and others. were indicted for conspiring
to form a combination to buy cotton to
an amount in excess Of the known crop.
The movement was known as cotton
corner to bull prices and reap prohts-
The government proceeded on the theory
that such a corner would have the ef-
feet of raising prices OF a COMMONLY
and operating as a restraint upon COM
lower court a demurrer to the certain
counts of the indictment was sustained
and the government appealed.
Many questions were asked by the
Supreme Court Justices yesterday and
to-day. Such questions are not neces'
sarily significant, as to the decision o1
the court Of these issues. But some oi
the questions propounded To-Day Dy the
chief Justice gave great comfort to the
defendants. Chief Justice White in
sisted, for example. that purchases OF
contracts for future delivery Of cotton
were to be distinguished from pur-
chases Of spot cotton. He also OBJ
served that II was well known tina,
purchases Of cotton futures did not ef-
feet the price OF spot cotton. Inasmuch
as there can be no interstate commercs
in q future" the defendants fail tc
see how a corner in cotton futures car
amount to restraint of interstate COM
merce. An agreement as to purchases
that does not enhance the price Of the
commodity itself cannot work any re-
straint OF trade in the commodity oil
be a burden on interstate commerce
they contend
Executor Spooner was the principal
attorney for the cotton brokers' The
burden OF the legal work for the De
partment Of Justice fell upon the new
Solicitor General.
