COSTLY BLAZE OF GLORY

PoUGHREEPsIE, May 12.-Attorneys
for James A. Stillman put on the wit
ness stand here to-day a witness who
declared that he had paid Fred Beau
vais, the Indian guide, $4,000 for four
letters alleged to have been written by
Mrs. Stillman to Beauvais.
Two of the letters are those which
ended "lots of Canadian love-" and
were signed "Kahitio,' an Indian word
meaning Dear Flower" They were
shown TO Mrs. Stillman and she said
that while they looked like her hand
writing. but were certainly not her
sentiments.
The witness who said he bought
the letters was Edmond Leigh. man.
ager and part owner of the National
Intelligence Plant Protection Service
at 81 Broadway, New York. private
detective employed by Stillman's
counsel. According to his testimony
he and Severance johnson, also en-
ployed by the Stillman lawyers, went
to Montreal and negotiated with Beau
vais for the letters, which were turned
over to a newspaper man named
James Sheahan. who in turn handed
them to Mr.. Horsey of counsel for
Stillman. Horsey, according to the
witness, then sent back the $4,000 BY
devious routes to Beauvais.
