London. June 2O-A great sensation
was produced in tho High Courts to-
day when +. +. Smith, X. C.. counsel

that the lawyers on both sides had
agreed that her divorce suit against

not Of a character for public discus
sion. and asked Sir Samuel Evans.
president OF the court. 10 put the case
IN the reserved list
This is a very rare proceeding, and
occurs only when something quite re-
markable is concerned. No mention
was made Of the exact nature OF the
evidence in the case. but from counsels
remarks il is indicated that quite sem
sational details are involved.
Although nothing official is an
nounced, II is understood that but for
the Lord Chancellor's recent pro-
nouncement against the hearing of
divorce cases behind closed doors an
application would have been made to
try the Berwick case in camera.
Mr. Smith, who with Sir Edward
Carson, represented Mrs Berwick. said
after a conference with II. G.. Duke,
Is. G., and William Sherman, X. G..
counsel for the husband, that the con-
clusion had been reached that If the

Evans had agreed TO.
When "A case is placed in the re-
served list the parties have a right TO
bring the action forward again at any
time. subject to non-pressure of court
business, but in the majority OF cases
these actions seldom come before the
public again. some having been on the
calendar for as long as five years. In
the present case it is understood that
certain evidence will be selected and
practically a new petition presented by
