The trial Of her husbands suit for d.
vorco was still the duel between the paid
inouisitor and IN unwilling victim fight
ing against odds.
But tho outstanding impression upon
spectators was Of strange struggle Of
a defiant young woman goaded with a
bundle Of her own love letters waved
mockingly at her.
Again the battery Of questions sim
mered down to this: Were the letters
a true record of her marriage. or was
the diary? Mrs. Stokes did not an
swer the question. Frequently she said
she loved her husband. Yct when Her.
bert Smyth accused her Of so beating
her aged husband that he was "out Of
business for five days. she denied the
incident at first with an indignant toss
Of her head. She had Scratched" him.
Had she scratched good and
nlcnty?' She laughed. Then she
added bitterly: II hope ! did"
And did she love her husband? Yes.
with diminishing love? Not exactly.

Referred to Mrs. Lydig
Not quite so sentimental was another
letter, significant for its reference tc
Mrs. Philip Lydig, first wife of Mr.
Stokes. Again Mrs. Stokes repeated
her charge that her husband was tC
choose between the wife who divorced
him and herself. In this letter Mrs
Stokes speaks of her predecessor with
unnstakablc fear, and its motif /,
money.
Perhaps Mrs. Stokes, leaving the wit

STOCK MARKET

NEW YORK, Nov. 1. = Changes
occurring in todai's moderately h:oad
but irregular stock market again
were influenced largely ny adverse
technical conditions and oearish pro-
fessional operations.
Oils held their recent lead as the
most active issues, but specrletion in
that group became increasingly con-
fusing on the more unstable course
of Mexican Petroleum and pnd promi-
nent domestic shares.
Dealings in rails were relatively
nominal. That division continued
handicapped by uncertain labor condi-
tions and no material expansion Of
traffic.
Industrials of the steel, equipment.
motor and affiliated types were I'M
der Intermittent pressure, the accom-
paniment of lower price schedules, nc
tual and prospective, ana cmInisn-
ed earnings.
TObaccoS reacted on rumors Of a
trade war" and further losses among
food, chemical, rubber and several
mai order and merchandising spec
ialties were traceable to similar
.
tober sales being case in point
Sales $4,000 shares.
Considering the heavy transfer or
funds incidental to November pay
ments, the money market was COM
paratively easy. The ~ per cent
opening rate eased to 5 per cent at
midday and held. Foreign exchanges
again reacted, the slight setback in
sterling being associated with the
Irish situation. Reactions i'll CONT
mental remittances were moderate.
The bond market was featureIess
on smaller dealings, Liberty issues
showing sadness, with 1irmness IN
most domestic industrials and rails.
Some foreign flotations also were
steady to strong. Total sales, par
value, s13,S50,000.
