REFUTES LIBEL CHARGE
Henry Ford Sits Quietly During Trial

Henry Ford Sits Quietly During Trial
Mount Clemens, Mich, May 16.-In
his statement Mr.. Murphy asked the
jury to remember that at the time of
the publication of the alleged libel.
June 2S, 1916, the United States had
not entered the European war and
did not enter until April, 1917.
I'VE had, while a neutral, the right
to sell munitions of war and we we're
trying to keep out of the war; said
Mr.. Murphy.
Mr.. Murphy then read the editorial
headed Ford is an Anarchist" The
article said Ford would not hold open
the places of his men who responded
to the call of their country, nor would
he pay their salaries while absent,
nor care for their families. Ford, in
the editorial. was referred to as IN
Ignorant idealist" and one "incap-
able of thought" Concluding the
reading, Mr.. Murphy continued:
Gentlemen, we shall prove beyond
the shadow of a doubt that these
statements are tissue of falshehoods
and libel
Referring to Mr. Ford as "the
greatest humanitarian in the world, p"
he walked over once and shook his
finger at the plaintiff so vigorously
that, without his words it would have
seemed to the spectators an accusa-
ton. Mr.. Ford sat quietly, with his
chin resting on one hand. The law
yer described the editorial as Libel
per Sc" or libel which in itself was
libel, and that the law assumes its
publication alone establishes malice.

DIVORCE AND OTHER
TROUBLES FORGOTTEN
GOVERNOR OF PHILIPPINES
WINS BRIDE.
Mrs. Wrentmore Valves OBJ
jections and Wirelesses
Blessings.

Chicago, May 16.--tiov Francis
Burton Harrison, OF the Philippine
Islands, and his 18-year-old school
girl bride. formerly Miss Elizabeth
Wrentmore, daughter of Dean Clar-
ence e. Wrentmore, of the University
of Manila, who were married at the
Black kstone hotel here last night, will
probably start today on q motor
honeymoon to Washington, d. c., and
the New England states.
Both the governor and his pretty
young bride refused to discuss "our
plans for the future" today, beyond
saying that they would start on their
honeymoon today and would sail for
the Philippines in the early autumn.
Divorce proceedings, parental OBJ
jections, diptheria perils and dispar-
ity of ages, the governor Is 46, are
forgotten today--for, it is said, the
brides mother, now en- route to the
Philippines, wirelessed her blessings.
Miss Wrentmore met Gov. Harri-
son year ago in the islands. Mrs
Wrentmore is said to have objected
when her daughter confessed to more
than passing interest in the dash
ing governor. Mrs. Wrentmore and
her daughter returned to California,
but Miss Wrentmore continued to be
interested in the governor. The young
lady entered university. Her
mother started for the Philippine Is
lands. Then Miss Wrehtmore hurried
to Washington, d. C. Shortly after
she left the university several cases
of diptheria we're reported in the in
stitution. Health physicians at
Washington and Chicago were noti-
fed to watch for Miss Wrentmore.
She arrived in Chicago several days
ago and was met at the station by
Gov. Harrison. Several health de-
partment officials were also on hand.
The governor and the BRIDE to- be
hurried to the city hall, where sew
eral throat cultures were taken, and
she was finally said to be free of
diphtheria germs.
But the wedding arrangements
were not completed until yesterday,
however, when Gov. Harrison re-
ceived word from California that
decree had been entered in the di-
vorce proceedings started by Mrs.
Harrison No. 2. Shortly after this
message was received, Rev. Johnston
Myers was summoned, and Miss
Wrentmore became Mrs. Harrison.
Ensign George Wrentmore repre-
sented the Wrentmore family at the
ceremony.
Gov. Harrison's first wife was killed

COMPLETE ENUMERATION
Charles A. Gebhardt Proves Trans
actions Were Legal.

1t will be remembered that in Feb
ruary of this year news came to
Chattanooga that Charles A. Geb-
hardt, president of the Chattanooga
Jewelry company of this city, had
been arrested in Cincinnati charged
with receiving stolen jewelry. The
iewelry in question was purchased by
Mr.. Gebhardt from Henry Schoepfel,
salesman for the firm of A. G. Schwab
& Sons, of Cincinnati, from whom
Mr.. Gebhardt had regularly made
similar purchases for several years.
Through investigation it was found
that this transaction was in regular
order, but from the fact that the en-
try was not made Immediately by
Mr.. Schoepfel, salesman, and that an
other party had actually stolen jewel
ry to the amount of about $4,000,
they were naturally associated to-
gether until the real culprit was ap-
pretended.
Mr.. Gebhardt and Mr.. Schoepfel
were both exonerated, the case being
dismissed without trial, the facts de-
veloping that they were not guilty
and the proper party being located.
The Chattanooga Jewelry company,
of which Mr.. Gebhardt is president,
is one of Chattanooga oldest and
most reputable business firms. It Is
regrettable that such an unfortunate
occurrence should have happened.
