Wife Proposed Duel With
Husband to End Troubles
Special Dispatch to The Tribune

BALTIMORE, Feb. 6-That she had
offered her husband the choice of two
revolvers, with the suggestion that she
take the other weapon and each shoot
at the other, was asserted by Mrs.
Susie Baughman German when her
cross-examination was resumed to-day
in the trial before Judge Stanton, in
the Circuit Court, of her suit against
her husband, Lemuel Irving German,
for limited divorce and alimony.
1t was in 1916, and they were living
in Fairmont, Mrs. German said, when
she went into the library where her
husband was. She had two revolvers
in her hand, and she told her husband
to take one of them and shoot at her
and she would take the other and shoot
at him.
''lf you kill me-" she said she told
him, "it will be in self-defense."
German took the revolvers from his
wife and removed the bullets. They
lived together for two years after that.

would be very willing to have US make
a reservation that would leave the
American pledge under Article X as
weak as possible in order that it should
not interfere with their taking further
territory that has not thus far been as

territories that perhaps they would

that pledge, then England, France and
