Ruths determination to regain the home-run hitting laurels he lost last year. has been demonstrated by the strict program of conditioning to which he adhered during the winter on his Massachusetts farm.

whose alleged authority said charges had
been made. It was my purpose, in max
ing this demand, to promptly vindicate
my character by compelling said alleged
authors of said false statements to ac-
knowledge to the said Asa G. Gambler,
and to those with whom he had discussed
said statements, that they had either de-
liberately, and for purposes of their own,
manufactured said SANDERS out of the
whole cloth, or that they had been in
duced by promises of reward from par
ties at interest, to manufacture said state
ments as means of destroying the hap
piness plaintiff and defendant had antici-
pated from their marriage.
1t was my purpose, in requesting this
information from Mr.. Gambler, to force
full disclosure of the truth, even though
it should become necessary to invoke the
aid of the courts to that end.
no my utter amazement and mex
pressible chagrin, my request was refused
by Mr.. Gambler. He refused to furnish
me with either the names or addresses of
either of the alleged authors of said state
ments.
Mr.. Gambler still refuses to Identify the
alleged authors of those statements, or to
give me any information which will enable
me to uncover the masked identity of said
alleged authors, if such authors exist ex-
cept in imagination.
I was, therefore, left to suffer the
stigma of these shameful SANDERS and to
suffer the humiliation naturally resulting
from the conduct of the defendant, who
had abandoned me under the cloak of
charges that were false and without
foundation, and who deliberately with
held from me the only simple means of
promptly exposing the enormity of the
outrage to which had been subjected.
say that no men or man of sufficient
character and integrity to be entitled to
belief by Mr.. Gambler or by any court
or Jury, ever said to defendant that
plaintiff has been guilty of the conduct
which was alleged by defendant as the
reason for his breach of his engagement
to your petitioner.
I charge that no man or men have ever
stated to defendant that your petitioner
invited him or them to visit her for i'm
proper purposes.
/ say that if any information, whatso-
ever was communicated to Mr.. Gambler
concerning me he acted upon said alleged

this ill usage would follow me wherever l
might go. He wrote that, owing to his
prominence, the proposed marriage had
been discussed and heralded conspicu-
Ously in many of the newspapers of the
country, and in all Of the press at Atlanta,
New Orleans, Reno and other places
where | am well known.
So felt that if allowed the engage
ment to be broken and myself to be dis
carded and abandoned under these cir
cumstanees, and on the grounds and for
the reasons given by Mr.. Gambler, as cur
rent in Atlanta, my character as a respect
able woman would be forever destroyed
and my future life ruined. Your petitioner,
having no male relative and thus aban-
dOned by her flance, was forced to rely
upon my own efforts to vindicate my char
acter and to protect myself against the
natural differences or deductions drawn
from the breach Of the engagement under
these circumstances.
therefore demanded that Mr.. Gambler

rumorS, reports or charges without making
any sufficient investigation to enable him,
as an intelligent man deeply interested
in the outcome of the investigation, 70
determine whether said rumOrs, charges or
reports were true or false.
Your petitioner says that she was the
affianced wife of defendant, and that he
was bound by every moral obligation to
her and to himself to disregard said
charges as part of deliberate plot to
destroy her happiness and his, for do
fendant well knew that said charges, II
made, were false and could have been
shown to be false upon investigation.
furthermore charge that unless Mr.,
Gambler, from his intimate knowledge OF
me, was willing to resent and refute said
ISLANDERS against the good name and char
alter of his affianced wife when they were
made, it was his solemn obligation, in de-
cency and honor, to promptly acquaint me
with the names and addresses of the men
alleged to have been the authors of the
reports conveyed to him, and to have
frankly and promptly acquainted me with
every detail of the incident necessary to
enable me to expose the falsehood as well
as the cowardly cunning of its perpetrat-
OrS.
Mr.. Gambler made no sufficient in
vestigation to enable him to conclusively
ascertain and determine that said charges
were false and vile.
Such investigation would have disclosed
the fact that the charges were absolutely
false, and if any charges were, indeed,
made, that they were the cruel fabrications
of malicious slanderers, actuated by
mercenary motives, so utterly without
foundation that the purported authors of
the ealumnies exacted the shelter of
secrecy as part of the price of their
perfdy.
Mr.. Gambler has persisted in his refusal
to even divulge to me, in response to my
urgent request and demands, the names of
the authors of said charges, or of those
by whom the charges were conveyed to
him. I, therefore, bring this action
against him for damages in order that the
matters herein set out may be freely in-
quired into and determined by a jury.
