Stokes Divorce Suit Ends Without
Aged Millionaire Taking Stand
Allegations OF Cruelty Made by
Wife Not Denied BY
Hotel Man.

NEW YORK. June 1.-THE suit for
divorce brought by w. Il. d. Stokes
against Heleo Eiwood Stokes and her
counterclaim for . separation Is over
save for the submission of briefs by
counsel for both sides and the con-
alteration and decision OF Justice Ed
ward r. Finch
Mr.. stokeA VINO 10 rccuperating
from an attack Of pleurisy. may not
be called to the stand. despite the
fact that he was subpoenaed by Mar
tin w. Iattiston. chief Of counsel for
Mrs. Stokes. Myies A walsh. who Is
assisting Mr.. LIttieton. said that Mr..
Stokes would rot be called In connec-
ton with the issues of either divorce
or separation. and would be placed on
the stand only In the event of aiimony
to be paid by, the plaintiff. Herbert
g. Smyth, OF Mr.. Stokes counsel. said
that briefs, In all probability, would
be in the hands of Justice Finch on
or about July !.
Mr.. waish's statement made II clear
that Mr.. Stokes would not In any
event take the Stdnu ahtcsS Ass
for a divorce against Mrs. stokes
should be dismissed and her counter
claim for a separation upheld by JUS
tiee Finch. Counsel for both sides ap-
peared TO be confident OF the outcome.
In the meanwhile the Stokes children
are In Colorado, having escaped exam
nation.
At Mr.. LittIetons office IL was
learned that after the letters TO Chi
caso, written by Mr.. Stokes In an
effort to have his wife Swallowed, had
been admitted In evidence, counsel for
the defendant felt doubtful whether
any benefit could be derived from
testimony given by Mr.. Stokes himself
Mr.. Stokes could not have been cross
examined by Mr.. Littlcton. as he had
t..cn subpoenaed by the latter and II
appeared doubtful whether he could
be cross-examined by anyone except
his own attorneys under the circum-
stances
Unless Mr.. Littlefon should succeed
by direct examination in bringing out
testimony of character which IL Is
doubtful that the court would permit
from one of the principals in the ae-
ton. attorneys for correspondents
would be barred from cross-examin-
ing.
As matters stand. It was pointed
out, the plaintiff has failed to deny
the allegation of cruelty made by Mrs.
Stokes in support of her counter
claim
