JURY GIVES A VERDICT
Judge Asserts Plaintiff Had
Shown Herself to Be Chaste,
VirtuouS Woman.

Chicago, Ill, June 9.-Mrs. Schu
mann Heink, the famous contralto, to
day was granted divorce from viii
liam Rapp, Jr., whose ardent epistles
breathing love and devotion to Mrs
Catherine Dean of New York were the
sensation of her divorce suit. No at
tempt was made to contradict the au-
thenticity OF the letters credited to
Rapp.
The victory came when Judge Sulli-
van instructed the jury TO return a YER
dict in favor Of the complainant. The
judge ruled there was no evidence to
show the complainant had been other
than a chaste. virtuous woman. The
court held that evidence of a statutory
charge against Rapp had not been con-
troverted. Rapp's counsel motioned
for new trial.

mitted Baldwin had been a visitor at
the diva's home. but he was regarded
simply as an old friend. Mcnamara

'ound possessed of a splendid voice

Political Bodies to Share

WANT CAUSE ENDORSED
Supporters of Ballot Gain POini
at Secret Conference
Held in Chicago.

Chicago, ILL.,, June 9.-The equal suf-
rage element of the General Fedora
ton of Women's club which meets
tomorrow night, today claimed victory
in the preliminary skirmish.
The action took place at mystert
Gil of the, federation yesterday. The
meeting is not scheduled on the pro-
gram that is set for tomorrow morn
ing, but nevertheless a majority of
those present expressed themselves, it
| is said, in favor of allowing women's
suffrage organizations to have repre-
sentation in the convention on an
| equality with non-political clubs.
Gowns? Wait Till Thursday.
While local suffragists who have
gone to great pains to entertain the
visiting delegates so that they may
think more favorably perhaps of the
movement, are discussing the proba-
bility of the convention indorsing
suffrage resolution, the women from
other states are holding secret con-
ferences as to the most becoming
frock to wear at the opening of the
convention. Most of the women will
wear dark cloth suits or trim linen
dresses during the biennial, and the
sheer creations of finest net, chiffon,
and taffetas Will be kept away in dark
corners of hotel closets wrapped in
dainty covers until Thursday night,
the evening of the reception at the Art
institute. Those "in the know" say
that the officers of the general feder-
alton and visiting delegates will bring
to light some of the handsomest
French model gowns that have been
imported from Paris this season.
May Indorse Suffrage.
Although the rumor that the official
board of the general federation had en-
dorsed a suffrage resolution at an ex-
ecutive session held yesterday was
quickly denied by the officers of that
body, Mrs. Grace Wilbur Trout, presi-
dent of the Illinois Equal Suffrage as
sociation, and other leaders of the
movement in Chicago are still
most sanguine over the treatment
which the cause" will receive at the
hands of the clubwomen.
I'VE were simply radiant when we
heard that the board of the general
federation had indorsed suffrage" said
Mrs. Trout. I'VE had not expected
that they would do that. 1t would be
fine if they should put themselves on
record for suffrage. Suffrage is the
,opic of conversation among the dele
cations from north, and south, east
and west. l do not think there is any
1oubt but that the convention will
reat the suffrage resolution favorably.
Confident of the Outcome.
'If this great meeting of the repre-
sentative womer of the women of the
world indorscs equal suffrage, it will
benefit not or}y the suffrage move
nent but it will uplift and dignity the
entire federation. l am confident of
he outcome"
