FORT WORTH, Texas, Nov. 2.-(By Associated Press.)-Former United States Senator Joseph w. Bailey. chief of counsel employed to defend Dr. Frederick A. Cook and his 13 CO., defendants in the alleged oil fraud cases, which are now being heard in federal court, drew a stinging rebuke at today's session of the case.
 Bailey, according to Federal Judge John NJ. Killits, challenged the right of the court to question a witness. This was the second serious clash between the court and Bailey since the hearing began.
 "The court has a right to conduct this case as it sees fit in an effort to bring the facts to light" said Judge Killits. Certainly it has not come 10 pass in Texas that federal judge has not the right to interr1gate a witness to develop facts" h2s

 T did" she answered.
 Mrs. Stokes continuously denied she had ever been at the Thirty-fifth street apartment of Edgar Wallace, named by Mir. Stokes as co-respon- dent.
 MT. Stener caused something of sensation when he produced several photo graphs of Mrs Stokes and men in pajamas. But Mrs. Stokes did not lose the coolness that marked all of her testimony. She calmly said she did not remember the circumstances when her husbands attorney asked her to tell about one of the pictures.
 Mrs. Stokes said Mir. Wallace had lent her a diamond ring. She de- clared the ring had no significance, saying she had worn other mems rings at house parties, but had not expected to marry them at all. She accepted the rings, like any normal

MORE INFORMATION ON
 INFLUENZA IS SOUGHT.
Fifteen Thousand Questionnaires
 Sent Out By Health Service

CHICAGO, Nov. Z.-fllleen lhou- sand questionnaires all dealing with influenza, it's probable cause, whether the sporadic waves in different parts of the country are associated in any way with each other, are being dis tributed among the students of five of the leading universities in this country, according to an announce ment made today by Dr. James Cay ley Townsend of the United States public health service.
 The test is a first of series that will be repeated in the same col leges and among the same students every two weeks during this winter.
 The universities named as the in stitutions where the test is being conducted are the University of Chi cago, Ohio State university, Harvard, Louisiana and the University of Call fornia.
 The questionnaires will deal ex- clusively with the influenza problem and the public health service hopes to glean information from it as to whether there is any connection be- tween epidemics of the sickness in different parts of the country; whether ordinary colds or pneumonia are conductive of influenza epidemics and whether the disease is hereditary as the questionnaire will inquire concerning influenza in the family of the students for years gone by.
