 mine friends, Mary A. Treat arrived

 ing to testify in the divorce suit
 brought against her by Mayor Jonn
 J. Treat of Stamford. The hearing

He said she wrote abusive letters to him, signing an assumed name. In one of the let ters Mrs. Treat accused her husband of going with other women and ask ed, Why don't you let those two buns go to bed together?" In this letter she charged Mayor Treat with taking other women to the theatre and occupying expensive seats while his wife had to occupy a cheaper I seat.
 The Treats were married June 2, 1898, tho wife's maiden name having been Mary A. Dougherty.
 There are three minor children and Mayor Treat asks the court to allow him the custody of the trio.- \

 able Canines.
TAKES POLICEMAN
 TO CAPTURE HIM

Acting in tho role of doctor or nurse after breaking out of his own cage, Hercules" a trained monkey owned by Dr. Robert D. Martin, who conducts a veterinary hospital at 1192 lsroad street, fed bichloride of mer- cury tablets to two valuable dogs one worth $500 and the other worth about S15O, and both have died from tho effects of the poisoning. A po- lice sergeant had to be called to cap ture the monk" who entered q Golden Hiu street house and got into bed with children.
 ''Hercules' is one of the most val unable trained monkeys in this part of the country He has such a rec ord that for some time he has been regarded as a trusty about the hos pital. But 1t was customary to keep him pretty well confined. Last even Ing he succeeded in getting out of his cage and taking a bottle of the pills from a shelf, spilled them on the floor. later feeding them to the two dogs of the bull variety. He ate some other medicine himself, but avoided the mercury tablets, which were on hand as disinfectants.
 The effect of the medicine on the monkey was to make him very vic iouse and when attendants couldn't capture him, Sergeant of Police All pheus c. Goulden, who has had ex- ,perience with animals from his con nection with a circus, was called. The monkey went into the Golden Hll1 street house where the officer caught him

Points Scored by Wilson in His Debate on League and Treaty with Senators Today: 1-UnlesS the Peace Treaty is ratified disaster is sure to fall upon Europe this win ter; a disaster that may be more terrible than the war itself.

 President Wilson told the Commit tee at the outset of his conference to- day that he could see no reasonable objection" to interpretations of how the United States accepts the League of Nations provided such interpreta- tions did not form a part of the for nal ratification itself.
 If interpretations were part of the formal ratification, he contended, long delays would follow as other govern ments would have to accept in effect the language of the Senate as the lan- guage of the treaty before ratification would be complete" Most of the in- terpretations,,. he said. seemed to him to suggest the plain meaning of the instrument itself"
