STILLMAN NOW UNDER FIRE
IN BATTLE OF INK"
Forgave, Then Accused Her, Fifi's
Aids Say.

New York.-Awaiting the mex
hearing of witnesses May Is, tn,
Stillman divorce case is being fough
with ink.
Aroused by the publication o.
James A Stillman's divorce charges
lawyers of Mrs. "Fifi" Stillman gave
definite information as to the evi,
dence they will offer to sustain the
claim that Stillman had disqualified
himself as a divorce claimant.
Doctors Story a Feature.
The evidence of DR.. Hugh Rus
sell of Buffalo, stating that Mrs.
Stillman revealed guilt to him and
sent for Stillman, with whom she
had consultations, and the introduc-
ton of the "hysterical letter" pro-
duced by Stillman as a confession
of guilt, are assumed by the defense
as proof that Stillman's information,
such as it was, was complete in the
late fall of 1917.
To show that Stillman did forgive
his wife after these events, her attor-
neys have the register of the ST.
Regis hotel in February, 1913, which
shows that Mr.. and Mrs. Stillman,
their daughter Anne and their two
sons-Guy was not yet born-were
guests at the hotel together then.
Clerks Story As Evidence.
The register is impounded, as are
the bills rendered by the hotel.
Photo-statie copies are in the hands
of counsel. Applying these is an
affidavit by thee clerk Of the hotel
who assigned the StiIlmans to rooms,
in which he swears they occupied
four rooms bedroom and sitting
room for ME- and Mrs. Stillman,
bedroom for Miss Anne Stillman,
bedroom for James and Alexander
StiIlman- A bedroom for the nurse
was provided IN another part of the
hotel.
Furthermore checks show that
meals \for Mr.. and Mrs. StilIman
were furnished in the rooms occupied
by them, according to the lawyers.
The lawyers regard this as proof
that Il Stiilman had the reasons for

Roos, and DR.. Spaulding's brother,

from the French metis, derivative Of
