The Premier stated that the Soviet

peace conference. He read the text
of another note which Great Britain
sent to the Soviet Government last
Tuesday after the Soviet demanded
that the Polish armtstIce delegates

mentals of PEE 20. This note said that
II the Soviet insisted on making peace
with Poland TO the exclusion OF other
powers, then the project for the Lon

fallen through.

plated tightening the Russian block

The Premier. raising another point.
said, "The best guarantee which So
Wet Russia could have against the

pose OF reaIIning and re-eQnpping
Poland for offensive purposes, would
be a fair understanding with the wes:- -

SUIT AGAINST RIVAL WHO REFUSED
WIFE IN CLIMAX OF TRAGEDY

80 disturbed him, his STORY runs on,
that he went to Parker at his home
and laid his own feelings before his
wife's friend quite forcibly.
From that talk Chisholm cana
away, he tells the court, satisfied that
whatever danger might have been
possible to his and his wife's happi-
ness was averted and that Parker
would see her no more. Parker left
his family at the lake and, as CHS
holm understood, was to remain away
for the. summer. Chisholm spent all
his time in New York without any
suspicious that this was not the case,
visiting his summer home only at
week-ends until September. Then the
matdservant mentioned the frequent
presence OF Parker at the place dur
Ing his absences.
Then for the first time, Chisholm
asserts, he made up his mind that his
wife must for her own good and fll-
ture either unite her life with Par
ker's or cease clandesine acQuaint-
ance with him and devote herself to
her own husband. He arranged a
meeting Of the three and talked the
matter out.
With every evidence Of sincerity,
according to Chisholm, the two as
sured him that their friendship was
not so deeply fixed in their hearts as
to justify a wrenching Of family ties
and the possibility of q scandal, and
they agreed with him they would
know each other no more. So far as
he had any information, the mutual
promise was kept for a month.
Mrs. Chisholm was Rravely
stricken with Influenza. Parker
asked permission to visit her ana
Chisholm granted 1t. This breaking
OF the agreement of separation nv
consent did not seem to him to have
changed the relations until the spring
Of 1918 when he found reason to be-
lieve that Mrs. Chisholm and Parkor
were corresponding and seeing each
other occasionally.
Chisholm, in his earIfestness, had nv
this time included Mr.. Parker in mis-
consultations in trying 20 get peace
and happiness for Mrs Chisholm and
relief from uncertainty and suspa-
cion for himself. He made a demand
that the old agreement be lived up TO
unless he was to be made to boroe
the alternative, the aHrangement OF A
marriage with Parker for Mrs.
chisholm. His only means of enborc-
ing the alternative was the threat Of
public suit.
Mrs. Chisholm showed him a letter
from Parker, praising her husband
| acknowledging their tondness for
each other was wrong and could
lead only to sorrow and renouncinE
her forever. Once again, ne SAYS. he
was satisfied the tragedy had been
avoided. But by the first Of this
year he heard things and felt things
In his own home that led him to ASK
Parker for another conference, which
was indefinite in its conclusions.
Last July Mrs. Chisholm went "a
the White Mountains 10 stay for the
summer. She was back two days
later, unable, Chisholm believes, to
stay away from Parker. More forcd
bly, than ever Chisholm proposed the
alternative to the man he believed
had Eupplanted HIM
"pn must either take her-o1
leave her alone-or face a suit fol
alienation OF her affections" C1hAs-
holm said.
''But much as I want to-" said Par
ker, according to Chisholm, ''I cannot
